How to read packaging labels and device silkscreens for Infineon modules and single tubes

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-02-01

Today, I would like to give you a brief introduction to Infineon's standard labels, as well as the silkscreen information of common discrete device packages (TO220, TO247, TO252, etc.), module products (CIPOS Mini Tiny IPM and IGBT Module).

First of all, I would like to invite Cheng Zhongqi and Zhou Minghui from Infineon's quality department to introduce Infineon's standard labels:

The label used for the outer box is PLL (packing list label).

Specifications such as tubes, REELs, and pizza boxes are all standard labels for BPL (Barcode Product Label).

13d) –double date code

1t) –lot number

q) –box quantity

1p) –ifx part number

x) –product (bau)number

9d) –date code

What is the lot number and date code?

lot number

There are three main formats of date code.

4 digits: 2148=YYWW, i.e. week 48 of 2021.

3 digits: 148=YWW, i.e. week 48 of 2021.

2 digits: 05=ym, i.e. May 2020.

Date code starts with E for process samples, G starts with RoHS certification, and H starts with RoHS and Halogen-Free certification.

How do you look at the silk screen of discrete devices?

The same package will also have differences in silk screen printing due to different packaging locations, which may be reflected in font, size, position, etc. Here are some examples of common encapsulation silk screens.

The rules for cipos mini IPM silkscreen printing are as follows

The CIPIOS Tiny IPM silk screen printing rules are as follows.

The silk screen printing rules for Legacy IR* products are different from those described above, and the following rules apply to the silk screen printing of Legacy IR products with DPAK D2PAK TO220 TO247. (*Note: Formerly IR, now part of Infineon).

line1: part number

line2: logo & dc

2 Type of DCIR Mexico: YWWP (P refers to Lead-Free) Subcon: PYWWX (X refers to Packaging Factory**).

line3: lot code4 character s link to lot#

How do you see the barcode information on the module?

Take 23-digit and 27-digit barcodes as an example:

The 23-digit barcode information is as follows.

The 27-digit barcode information is as follows.

Remarks: Module barcode information is usually described in the product's Datasheet Application Note (see illustration below), please refer to the product details page of Infineon's official website for more information.
