Product details
Overview
IDV15E65D2XKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an emitter-controlled diode (ECD) designed for high-efficiency, soft-switching boost stages in continuous conduction mode (CCM) power factor correction (PFC) circuits. It features 650 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, 15 A forward current rating, 1.6 V forward voltage at 15 A and 25°C, 30 ns reverse recovery time, and operates up to 175°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IDV15E65D2XKSA1 datasheet, IDV15E65D2XKSA1 pinout, IDV15E65D2XKSA1 application, or IDV15E65D2XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include low Qrr (0.12–0.37 µC), fast trr (30–51 ns), soft reverse recovery behavior, and FullPAK TO-220-2-22 package thermal performance for industrial AC-DC front-end designs.
Technical Context
The IDV15E65D2XKSA1 implements Infineon's Emitter Controlled Diode technology - a monolithic integration of a fast recovery diode with an integrated emitter switch that actively controls carrier recombination during turn-off. This architecture enables precise control over reverse recovery charge and peak recovery current.
It delivers soft switching characteristics under high di/dt conditions (up to 6500 A/µs), with low internal emitter inductance (7.0 nH) and stable Qrr across temperature (0.12 µC at 25°C, 0.37 µC at 175°C), making it suitable for high-frequency PFC topologies operating above 100 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 650 V - Withstands full bridge rectified AC line surges in universal-input 85–265 VAC PFC stages without breakdown. |
| IF | 15 A continuous - Supports 500–750 W CCM PFC output power levels with standard heatsinking. |
| VF | 1.6 V @ 15 A, 25°C - Minimizes conduction loss in high-current boost diode path; increases by ~0.6 V at 175°C. |
| Qrr | 0.12–0.37 µC - Low stored charge reduces switching loss and EMI in hard- and soft-switched converters. |
| trr | 30–51 ns - Enables operation at >100 kHz switching frequencies while maintaining low recovery overshoot. |
| Rth(j-c) | 4.4 K/W - Enables direct mounting to heatsink for efficient thermal management in compact industrial power supplies. |
| Tvj(max) | 175°C - Allows sustained operation in enclosed, high-ambient environments such as server PSUs and motor drives. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO220-2-22 FullPAK - electrically isolated, thermally enhanced TO-220 variant with insulated case and two terminals (anode and cathode). The metal tab is electrically isolated and serves solely as thermal interface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Tab) | Power input node for forward conduction | Electrically isolated metal tab connected internally to anode; requires no insulating washer when mounted to heatsink. |
| Cathode (Lead) | Power output node; connects to boost inductor and switch node | Standard lead-form terminal; carries full load current and high di/dt during recovery transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Emitter Controlled Diode architecture | Active carrier lifetime control eliminates tail current, enabling true soft recovery without snubbers. |
| Low Qrr with minimal temperature drift | Qrr increases only 2.1× from 25°C to 175°C - improves thermal stability vs. conventional FREDs. |
| Soft reverse recovery waveform | Controlled dIrr/dt (−1500 to −6800 A/µs) suppresses voltage ringing and reduces EMI filter burden. |
| FullPAK isolation | Electrically isolated case eliminates need for mica washers or silicone pads - simplifies assembly and improves thermal reliability. |
| Pb-free & halogen-free | RoHS-compliant plating and IEC 61249-2-21 compliance support eco-design requirements for industrial equipment. |
Applications
| Server PSU Boost PFC | Industrial Motor Drive Input Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-density 1U server power supply operating at 100–200 kHz with universal AC input and strict efficiency targets (80 PLUS Titanium). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Boost diode in interleaved CCM PFC stage; handles 15 A average current and absorbs high di/dt during MOSFET commutation. Use Value: Low Qrr (0.12 µC) and soft recovery reduce switching losses by ~18% versus standard ultrafast diodes, improving full-load efficiency by 0.3–0.4%. | Use Scenario: 3-phase AC drive with active front-end rectification and regenerative braking capability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional boost/clamp diode in Vienna rectifier topology; conducts during line-voltage zero-crossings and recovers under high dv/dt. Use Value: Stable trr (30–51 ns) and controlled Irrm (<17 A) prevent false triggering of overcurrent protection during transient recovery events. |
| Solar Inverter DC-Link Clamp | EV Onboard Charger PFC Stage |
Use Scenario: String inverter with 1000 V DC-link and dual-stage conversion (boost + inverter); requires robust clamping under lightning surge conditions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active clamp diode absorbing inductive energy from DC-link chokes during fault shutdown. Use Value: 100 A non-repetitive surge rating (IFSM) and 175°C Tvj(max) ensure survivability during grid fault transients without derating. | Use Scenario: 11 kW bidirectional OBC operating in both AC-DC (grid-to-battery) and DC-AC (vehicle-to-grid) modes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary boost diode in totem-pole PFC with GaN HEMT switches; must recover cleanly at 200+ kHz with minimal reverse recovery noise. Use Value: 7.0 nH internal emitter inductance minimizes parasitic oscillation during fast turn-off, reducing gate driver stress on high-side GaN devices. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar emitter-controlled diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STTH1506D | 600 V VRRM, 15 A IF, 1.85 V VF, 35 ns trr, no emitter control | Lacks active carrier control; exhibits tail current and higher EMI in high-di/dt PFC | Lower cost but requires larger snubber and heatsink; suitable only for <100 kHz designs. |
| IXYS MUR1560CT | 600 V VRRM, 15 A IF, 2.1 V VF, 60 ns trr, standard ultrafast construction | No soft recovery; higher Qrr (~1.5 µC) and uncontrolled Irrm | Acceptable for legacy 50–75 kHz PFC but not recommended for high-frequency or EMI-sensitive applications. |
Compared with STTH1506D and IXYS MUR1560CT, IDV15E65D2XKSA1 provides superior soft-switching behavior, lower conduction loss at high temperature, and tighter thermal resistance (4.4 K/W), enabling smaller magnetics, reduced EMI filtering, and higher power density in next-generation industrial and EV power systems.

FAQ
Is IDV15E65D2XKSA1 pin-compatible with standard TO-220 diodes?
No - IDV15E65D2XKSA1 uses the PG-TO220-2-22 FullPAK package with electrically isolated case. While footprint matches standard TO-220, the tab is anode-connected and isolated; no insulator is needed, unlike conventional TO-220 diodes where the tab is cathode and requires isolation.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The maximum case temperature for continuous operation is 150°C, derived from the 175°C maximum junction temperature and 4.4 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance at rated 15 A current. Derating curves in Figure 1 confirm 34 W power dissipation at TC = 25°C, decreasing linearly to ~12 W at TC = 150°C.
Does IDV15E65D2XKSA1 require a gate drive or external control signal?
No - IDV15E65D2XKSA1 is a two-terminal passive device. Its emitter-controlled behavior is fully integrated and self-contained; no external bias, gate signal, or control circuitry is required. It functions as a drop-in replacement for standard fast recovery diodes but with superior soft-switching characteristics.
Can IDV15E65D2XKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VF temperature coefficient (VF increases with junction temperature, per Figure 8) enables natural current sharing. However, layout symmetry, matched thermal paths, and equalizing busbar inductance are essential to avoid imbalance; Infineon recommends ≤2 devices in parallel without active current balancing.
