Description
CPC1998J is an AC Solid State Switch utilizing dual
power SCR outputs. This device also includes
zero-cross turn-on circuitry and is specified with an
800VP blocking voltage.
Tightly controlled zero-cross circuitry ensures low
noise switching of AC loads by minimizing the
generation of transients. The optically coupled input
and output circuits provide exceptional noise immunity
and 2500Vrms of isolation between the control and the
output. As a result, the CPC1998 is well suited for
industrial environments where electromagnetic
interference would disrupt the operation of plant facility
communications and control systems.
The unique i4-PAC package pioneered by IXYS allows
Solid State Relays to achieve the highest load current
and power ratings. This package features a unique
IXYS process in which the silicon chips are soft
soldered onto the Direct Copper Bond (DCB)
substrate instead of the traditional copper leadframe.
The DCB ceramic, the same substrate used in high
power modules, not only provides 2500Vrms isolation
but also very low thermal resistance (0.35 °C/W).

2 Thermal Characteristics
2.1 Thermal Management
Device high current characterization was performed using Kunze heat sink KU 1-159, phase change thermal interface
material KU-ALC 5, and transistor clip KU 4-499/1. This combination provided an approximate junction-to-ambient
thermal resistance of 12.5°C/W.
2.2 Heat Sink Calculation
Higher load currents are possible by using lower thermal resistance heat sink combinations.

4 Manufacturing Information
4.1 Moisture Sensitivity
All plastic encapsulated semiconductor packages are susceptible to moisture ingression. IXYS Integrated
Circuits Division classified all of its plastic encapsulated devices for moisture sensitivity according to the
latest version of the joint industry standard, IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020, in force at the time of product
evaluation. We test all of our products to the maximum conditions set forth in the standard, and guarantee
proper operation of our devices when handled according to the limitations and information in that standard as well as
to any limitations set forth in the information or standards referenced below.
Failure to adhere to the warnings or limitations as established by the listed specifications could result in reduced
product performance, reduction of operable life, and/or reduction of overall reliability.
This product carries a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating as shown below, and should be handled according to
the requirements of the latest version of the joint industry standard IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033.
4.2 ESD Sensitivity
This product is ESD Sensitive, and should be handled according to the industry standard
JESD-625.
4.3 Reflow Profile
This product has a maximum body temperature and time rating as shown below. All other guidelines of
J-STD-020 must be observed.
4.4 Board Wash
IXYS Integrated Circuits Division recommends the use of no-clean flux formulations. However, board washing to
remove flux residue is acceptable. Since IXYS Integrated Circuits Division employs the use of silicone coating as an
optical waveguide in many of its optically isolated products, the use of a short drying bake may be necessary if a wash
is used after solder reflow processes. Chlorine-based or Fluorine-based solvents or fluxes should not be used.
Cleaning methods that employ ultrasonic energy should not be used.
