Product details
Overview
ETD580N16P60HPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a phase-control thyristor module with 1600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM/VRRM), 586 A average on-state current at TC = 85°C (ITAVM), and 0.327 mΩ slope resistance (rT). It uses pressure-contact technology and features electrically insulated baseplate construction for high-reliability industrial power control in soft starters and static switches.
For engineers reviewing the ETD580N16P60HPSA1 datasheet, ETD580N16P60HPSA1 pinout, ETD580N16P60HPSA1 application, or ETD580N16P60HPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.0645 K/W), critical dv/dt rating (1000 V/µs), gate trigger current (≤250 mA), and surge current capability (16.5 kA).
Technical Context
This dual-thyristor module operates in phase-controlled AC power regulation, supporting conduction angles from 30° to 180° in rectifier and crowbar applications. Its pressure-contact die assembly enables robust thermal cycling performance and low parasitic inductance, critical for high-current switching stability.
The device integrates two anti-parallel thyristor arms in a single 60 mm baseplate package, rated for 135 °C maximum junction temperature and 3.6 kV insulation test voltage (1 sec). Gate drive requirements are defined by triggering voltage ≤2 V and holding current ≤300 mA under standard conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDRM / VRRM | 1600 V - Maximum repetitive blocking voltage per thyristor arm, defining safe AC line voltage compatibility up to 1150 V RMS. |
| ITAVM (TC = 85°C) | 586 A - Continuous DC or sinusoidal average current per arm, determining steady-state thermal design margin. |
| ITSM (10 ms) | 16500 A - Non-repetitive surge current capability, enabling short-circuit protection in motor drives and UPS systems. |
| RthJC | 0.0645 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance per arm, directly setting heatsink sizing requirements for 85°C case temperature operation. |
| (dv/dt)cr | 1000 V/µs - Minimum critical rate-of-rise of off-state voltage, specifying snubber design necessity for inductive loads. |
| VTO / rT | 0.8 V / 0.327 mΩ - Threshold voltage and slope resistance, jointly defining forward conduction loss profile at high current. |
| tq | 300 µs - Typical commutated turn-off time, constraining minimum operating frequency in phase-controlled rectifiers. |
Pinout & Package
ETD580N16P60HPSA1 is housed in an industrial-standard press-pack module with electrically insulated 60 mm baseplate and six main terminals: two anodes (A1, A2), two cathodes (K1, K2), and two gate terminals (G1, G2), arranged for dual anti-parallel thyristor configuration.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| A1 | Anode of Thyristor Arm 1 | High-side AC input connection for first thyristor in anti-parallel pair; carries full load current during positive half-cycle. |
| K1 | Kathode of Thyristor Arm 1 | Output node for Arm 1; tied to common DC bus or load return in bridge configurations. |
| G1 | Gate of Thyristor Arm 1 | Low-energy control input requiring ≤250 mA trigger current; isolated from power terminals per IEC61140 Class 1 insulation. |
| A2 | Anode of Thyristor Arm 2 | High-side AC input for second thyristor; conducts during negative half-cycle in full-wave phase control. |
| K2 | Kathode of Thyristor Arm 2 | Output node for Arm 2; typically connected to same DC node as K1 in symmetrical bridge layouts. |
| G2 | Gate of Thyristor Arm 2 | Independent gate drive path for Arm 2; enables separate firing angle control in asymmetrical applications. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phase-control thyristor module applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT580N16KOF | Same VDRM (1600 V) and ITAVM (586 A), but non-insulated baseplate and higher RthJC (0.067 K/W). | Requires external isolation kit for grounded heatsink mounting; less suitable for space-constrained UPS designs. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs insulation convenience and thermal margin is sufficient. |
| SKKT580/16E | Lower ITSM (12.5 kA vs. 16.5 kA), higher VTO (0.95 V), and larger 70 mm baseplate footprint. | Limited surge handling in crowbar applications; requires redesigned mechanical interface and heatsink clamping. | Prefer for legacy SKiiP-based systems where board-level compatibility is mandatory. |
Compared with TT580N16KOF and SKKT580/16E, ETD580N16P60HPSA1 offers superior thermal resistance (0.0645 K/W), integrated baseplate insulation, and highest surge current rating-making it optimal for new-design soft starters and compact UPS rectifiers demanding reliability and layout simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The maximum case temperature (TC) for continuous operation is +135 °C, as specified in the thermal characteristics table. Operation above this temperature risks irreversible degradation of the pressure-contact interface and AlN insulation layer. Derating curves in the datasheet show ITAVM decreases to 420 A at TC = 100 °C for 180° conduction angle.
Does ETD580N16P60HPSA1 require forced-air cooling?
No forced-air cooling is mandated, but thermal design must ensure case temperature remains ≤135 °C under worst-case load. With RthCH ≈ 0.015 K/W (module-to-heatsink) and RthCA ≤ 0.15 K/W (heatsink-to-ambient), natural convection suffices only below ~300 A ITAVM; above that, forced air or liquid cooling is recommended.
Can gate terminals G1 and G2 be driven with a shared isolated gate driver?
Yes, G1 and G2 may share a single isolated gate driver if both thyristor arms are intended to fire simultaneously (e.g., in full-wave AC switching). However, independent gate control is required for asymmetrical firing or regeneration modes, necessitating two separate isolated drivers referenced to their respective cathodes.
What is the creepage distance and why does it matter for safety certification?
The creepage distance is 19 mm between primary-side terminals (A/K) and the insulated baseplate. This value satisfies IEC 61800-5-1 requirements for Pollution Degree 2 environments and supports reinforced insulation classification, enabling UL/EN 62109 certification in UPS and drive inverters without additional potting or barriers.
