Product details

Overview

IGP20N60H3XKSA1 from Infineon is a 600 V, 20 A high-speed IGBT using Trench and Fieldstop technology, designed for hard-switching power conversion stages in industrial inverters and UPS systems. It delivers 1.95 V V_CE(sat) at 25°C, 175°C maximum junction temperature, and 0.24 mJ turn-off energy at 25°C with 400 V bus voltage and 20 A load current.

For engineers reviewing the IGP20N60H3XKSA1 datasheet, IGP20N60H3XKSA1 pinout, IGP20N60H3XKSA1 application, or IGP20N60H3XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include switching loss trade-offs at 175°C operation, gate charge (120 nC), thermal resistance (0.88 K/W j-c), and safe operating area under short-circuit conditions (5 µs, 120 A).

Technical Context

This third-generation High Speed Switching Series IGBT integrates TRENCHSTOP™ process technology to simultaneously reduce conduction loss (low V_CE(sat)) and switching loss (low E_off, fast t_d(off) = 194 ns typ. at 25°C). Its field-stop structure enables robust 600 V blocking capability while maintaining low tail current and EMI generation.

The device features a dedicated emitter terminal layout optimized for low internal inductance (L_E = 7.0 nH) and supports gate drive with ±20 V rating. It is qualified per JEDEC standards for industrial power control applications and operates reliably across –40°C to +175°C junction temperature range.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE	600 V - Maximum DC collector-emitter blocking voltage; defines usable bus voltage in hard-switched converters up to 400 V DC link.
I_C	20 A - Continuous collector current at T_C = 100°C; derates to 40 A at T_C = 25°C per SOA limits.
V_CE(sat)	1.95 V @ 25°C - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in high-current output stages; rises to 2.50 V at 175°C.
E_off	0.24 mJ @ 25°C - Measured turn-off energy at 400 V, 20 A, 15 V gate drive; critical for thermal design of high-frequency PWM stages.
R_th(j–c)	0.88 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables direct heatsink mounting with predictable thermal margin in TO-220 packages.
Q_G	120 nC - Total gate charge; determines required gate driver peak current and influences switching speed vs. EMI trade-off.
t_SC	5 µs - Short-circuit withstand time at V_GE = 15 V, V_CC ≤ 400 V, T_vj = 150°C; supports fault protection in motor drives and UPS.

Pinout & Package

IGP20N60H3XKSA1 is housed in PG-TO220-3 package: insulated plastic case with three leads-Collector (C), Gate (G), and Emitter (E)-mounted on a single-plane metal tab for direct thermal interface. Pin 1 = Collector, Pin 2 = Gate, Pin 3 = Emitter (viewed from front with tab down, leads facing down).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (C)	Main high-side power terminal	Carries full load current into the IGBT die; electrically connected to metal tab; requires isolation when mounted to heatsink.
Gate (G)	Control input	High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; requires 15 V nominal drive for full enhancement; rated ±20 V absolute max.
Emitter (E)	Power return and reference node	Serves as current return path and gate drive reference; low-inductance internal connection (7.0 nH) minimizes switching oscillation.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
TRENCHSTOP™ technology	Enables simultaneous optimization of V_CE(sat) (1.95 V) and E_off (0.24 mJ), reducing total power loss in 10–50 kHz switching applications.
175°C maximum junction temperature	Supports compact thermal design in enclosed industrial enclosures without forced air cooling; extends reliability under sustained overload.
JEDEC-qualified for industrial use	Validated for long-term operation in harsh environments including welding equipment and UPS systems with wide ambient temperature swings.
Pb-free, halogen-free construction	Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for surface-mount reflow compatibility.

Applications

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main inverter switch in H-bridge output stage, operating at 16–20 kHz with sinusoidal PWM.

Use Value: Low E_off (0.24 mJ) and stable V_CE(sat) up to 175°C enable high efficiency (>95%) and reduced heatsink size in sealed rack-mount units.

Use Scenario: Inverter-based arc welding power supply generating constant-current output with rapid droop response.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary switching element in primary-side DC-DC converter, switching at 20–40 kHz with variable duty cycle.

Use Value: Fast t_d(off) (194 ns) and low tail current minimize energy loss during high-duty-cycle bursts, improving thermal stability during continuous weld cycles.

Motor Drive Inverters

Renewable Energy Converters

Use Scenario: 3-phase VFD controlling induction motors in HVAC and pump systems with sensorless FOC.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Upper-leg IGBT in 6-pack module configuration, driven by isolated gate drivers with 15 V logic.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IKP20N60H3	Same die, but in PG-TO247-3 package; lower R_th(j–c) (0.55 K/W); higher I_C(puls) (120 A).	Better suited for higher-power modules or forced-air-cooled designs where thermal headroom is constrained.	Select IKP20N60H3 when >100 W dissipation or >50 kHz switching demands superior thermal performance.
FGA20N60UFD	600 V, 20 A ultrafast IGBT; higher V_CE(sat) (2.2 V typ.); lower Q_G (75 nC); no specified t_SC.	Limited to non-fault-tolerant applications like lighting ballasts or low-cost SMPS where short-circuit immunity is not required.	Choose FGA20N60UFD only if gate drive strength is limited and system-level fault protection is implemented externally.

Compared with IKP20N60H3 and FGA20N60UFD, IGP20N60H3XKSA1 offers optimal balance of thermal robustness (0.88 K/W), short-circuit ruggedness (5 µs), and switching efficiency (0.24 mJ E_off) in cost-sensitive TO-220 industrial power stages.

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for IGP20N60H3XKSA1?

The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V, as specified in the "Maximum ratings" table. Operation beyond this range risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for full enhancement and –5 V to –10 V for fast, reliable turn-off with noise immunity.

Does IGP20N60H3XKSA1 include an integrated freewheeling diode?

No, IGP20N60H3XKSA1 is a standalone IGBT without an integrated body diode. The datasheet references the companion diode IKP20N60H3 in switching energy measurements, confirming external diode pairing is required for inductive load commutation.

How does junction temperature affect V_CE(sat) performance?

V_CE(sat) increases with junction temperature: 1.95 V at 25°C, 2.30 V at 125°C, and 2.50 V at 175°C. This positive temperature coefficient improves current sharing in parallel configurations and provides inherent thermal self-limiting behavior.

Can IGP20N60H3XKSA1 be used in resonant or soft-switching topologies?

Yes - its low C_res (32 pF) and fast t_f (11 ns) make it suitable for ZVS and ZCS circuits. However, its optimized hard-switching characteristics mean gate drive design must account for higher dV/dt during turn-on to avoid spurious triggering in high-noise environments.
