Product details
Overview
AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 40 A high-speed TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT with integrated RAPID 1 antiparallel diode in PG-TO247-3 package, designed for hard-switching and resonant topologies in on-board/off-board EV chargers and DC/DC converters. It delivers 1.66 V VCE(sat) at 25°C, 92 nC gate charge, and 175°C max junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 datasheet, AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 pinout, AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 application, or AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 equivalent, this device supports high-efficiency power conversion in automotive-grade EV charging systems where low switching loss, soft diode recovery, and AEC-Q101 qualification are critical selection criteria.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop structure optimized for fast turn-off (153 ns td(off) @ 25°C) and low tail current, paired with a RAPID 1 diode exhibiting 75 ns trr and -217 A/µs dirr/dt at 25°C. Its dynamic performance is characterized under standardized inductive-load conditions (VCC = 400 V, IC = 20 A, RG = 15 Ω).
The device operates across -40°C to +175°C junction range with thermally decoupled IGBT/diode junction-to-case resistances (0.60 K/W and 1.80 K/W respectively), enabling high-power density designs in constrained thermal environments typical of automotive traction and auxiliary power modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE Rating | 650 V - Supports 400 V DC bus systems with 60 % voltage margin for transient overvoltage handling |
| IC Continuous | 40 A @ TC = 25°C - Sustains rated output current in forced-air-cooled charger modules |
| VCE(sat) | 1.66 V @ IC = 40 A, Tvj = 25°C - Minimizes conduction loss in high-duty-cycle PFC and DC/DC stages |
| QG | 92 nC - Enables fast, low-loss switching with moderate gate drive strength (e.g., 2 A peak) |
| trr (Diode) | 75 ns @ IF = 20 A - Reduces reverse recovery energy and EMI in synchronous rectification |
| Tvj(max) | 175°C - Allows operation in high-ambient automotive under-hood environments without derating |

Pinout & Package
AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 uses the PG-TO247-3 through-hole package with isolated collector tab (backside). The package features a robust copper baseplate for low thermal resistance and mechanical stability in high-vibration automotive applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control terminal requiring <±20 V rating; low input capacitance (Cies = 2300 pF) eases gate driver design |
| Pin 2 & Backside | Collector | Main high-side power terminal; backside metal tab provides low-inductance, high-current path to heatsink |
| Pin 3 | Emitte | Power return path; internal emitter inductance (LE = 13 nH) impacts switching waveform fidelity |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKW40N65ES5 | Same 650 V/40 A rating but uses older TRENCHSTOP™ 4 technology; higher VCE(sat) (1.75 V) and slower switching (Eoff ≈ 0.15 mJ vs. 0.12 mJ) | Lacks AEC-Q101 qualification; intended for industrial, not automotive, use | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency and qualification requirements |
| FGH40N60UF | 600 V rating, lower VCE(sat) (1.55 V), but no integrated diode; requires external fast diode | Not AEC-Q101 qualified; higher system-level BOM count and layout complexity | Select only if 600 V rating suffices and discrete diode integration is acceptable |
Compared with IKW40N65ES5 and FGH40N60UF, AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, integrated soft-recovery diode, and best-in-class switching efficiency-making it the preferred choice for automotive-grade high-power converters where reliability and system simplification are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V for continuous operation and ±30 V for transient pulses ≤10 µs (duty cycle <1 %). Exceeding ±20 V continuously risks gate oxide degradation and threshold voltage shift, especially at elevated temperatures. Gate drive circuits must include clamping or zener protection to remain within these limits.
Does AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No, reliable turn-off is achieved with 0 V gate voltage; however, applying -5 V to -10 V improves noise immunity and reduces risk of spurious turn-on in high-dV/dt environments like multi-level inverters. The device's VGE(th) range (3.2–4.8 V) ensures robust off-state margin even without negative bias under typical board-level noise conditions.
How does the integrated RAPID 1 diode differ from standard FRD counterparts?
The RAPID 1 diode features tailored lifetime control and optimized carrier distribution, yielding soft reverse recovery (low Irrm and dirr/dt) and low Qrr (0.52 µC @ 25°C). Unlike standard fast recovery diodes, it is electrically and thermally co-optimized with the IGBT die-ensuring matched thermal expansion, consistent switching timing, and minimized parasitic oscillation in half-bridge configurations.
Can AIKW40N65DH5XKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (increasing from 1.66 V at 25°C to 2.05 V at 175°C) enables inherent current sharing in paralleled operation. Successful implementation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling via shared heatsink; derating to ≤35 A per device is recommended for >100 kHz operation to manage dynamic imbalance.
