Reliability of PressFIT Connections |
PressFIT is a force fitting easy connection technology, which provides a higher reliability to meet the trends to higher temperatures and new applications for power semiconductor modules. This technology is well-known as a highly reliable connection for several years in the industry, in telecommunications and in automotive designs. Infineon modify common reliability test procedures for power modules and PressFIT connections.

From Vehichle Drive Cycle to Reliability Testing of Power Modules |
In hybrid electrical vehicles (HEV) the battery, motor and inverter are the core elements of the electric drive train. To qualify power modules for use in HEV inverters, amongst others, power and thermal cycling tests have to be performed. These tests mainly ensure the reliability of the module regarding thermal stress conditions over the vehicle lifetime.
