SKM803GB17E7
Semikron SKM803GB17E7 SEMITRANS 3+ IGBT module, 1700 V half-bridge at 800 A with IGBT 7 chips and CAL7 diodes.
The SKM803GB17E7 is a Semikron SEMITRANS 3+ IGBT module in a half-bridge configuration, rated 1700 V and 800 A with the Gen 7 chip generation. It combines the classic 62 mm housing and external interfaces of SEMITRANS 3 with a fully redesigned interior that raises the power density, lowers the stray inductance and extends the junction temperature to 175 degrees Celsius, reaching up to 1000 A in the same footprint across the 3+ range. The module uses the IGBT 7 (Gen 7) chip with the new CAL7 diodes, so it switches with lower loss and a softer recovery than the previous generation, and at 1700 V it suits a 575 to 750 V AC drive or converter, a wind converter, a large UPS or another higher-voltage industrial power stage. Six half-bridge modules form a complete three-phase inverter, and the 175 degree junction allows a compact thermal design, while the improved power-cycling capability and humidity robustness suit outdoor and renewable installations. The module supports multiple IGBT chip versions for supply-chain stability, so the same part can be sourced with dies from more than one supplier. Every module BeiLuo ships is factory-traceable and includes an import declaration, a certificate of origin and a RoHS compliance file. Availability of high-current ratings is confirmed per project, and BeiLuo reserves supply against your forecast.
FAE Professional Review
The SKM803GB17E7 is the high-current 1700 V member of the SEMITRANS 3+ line, delivering 800 A in the classic 62 mm footprint with the Gen 7 chip. It is the part for a higher-voltage, high-power converter that must stay compact, and the multiple chip sources help supply stability. Confirm the driver and the thermal design for the full current.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the SKM803GB17E7 rated for?
It is a 1700 V half-bridge SEMITRANS 3+ module at 800 A, with the IGBT 7 (Gen 7) chip and CAL7 inverse diodes in the classic 62 mm housing.
Confirm the current against your load at the expected case temperature.
Why choose the 1700 V class?
Choose 1700 V for a higher-voltage bus, such as a 575 to 750 V AC drive or a wind converter, where a 1200 V part would not give enough margin over the peak. The higher class protects the module against the switching overshoot of a high bus voltage.
Our FAE team can confirm the class for your bus.
Is lead time longer for this module?
High-current SEMITRANS 3+ ratings are scheduled per project through Semikron authorized channels. BeiLuo reserves supply against your forecast and confirms lead time before an order.
