Aaah ok...that sucks...Digikey is also not allowed to distribute it in Europe. So I'll have to do a couple of searches to see who is allowed. Farnell, RS-components and Conrad don't seem to carry it or their search function sucksThey probably have an exclusive contract with some other distributor for Europe region.
Thanks for the reply.
KWx is listed on the IXYS site as your distributor
I bought mine from Arrow in the US, Mouser also lists them
my local rep is however useless - I wanted more info and to buy direct small qty of the 2.5 KV parts which isn't yet stocked at distributors
a interesting problem is that the packaging doesn't meet creepage distances for anywhere near the device V ratings - for diy I can hand coat with "corona dope" or rtv silicone but production probably means going to conformal coating
you may be interested in my crude spice model for the part here:

You could try contacting IXYS directly and asking for engineering samples. I have had some success with other manufacturers. It does mean bending the truth a bit and pretending you may order a few thousand but hey who cares if it gets the parts you need.
I would have thought that at some point in the future Mouser will stock them in their depot in Germany if its any consolation
Anyway they look rather interesting and I have the same trouble getting IXYS and Supertex stuff here. You could also try a local inverter drive repair house that stocks IXYS IGBTs etc. They tend to be able to get parts from the manufacturer.
Cheers Matt.
