Product details
Overview
IGP20N65H5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 20 A high-speed trench-gate field-stop IGBT in TRENCHSTOP™ 5 technology, designed for hard-switching and resonant topologies in industrial power converters. It delivers 1.65 V VCE(sat) at 20 A and 25°C, 48 nC total gate charge, 175°C maximum junction temperature, and 156 ns turn-off delay under standard test conditions (400 V, 10 A, 32 Ω gate resistor).
For engineers reviewing the IGP20N65H5XKSA1 datasheet, IGP20N65H5XKSA1 pinout, IGP20N65H5XKSA1 application, or IGP20N65H5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include switching energy (0.23 mJ total at 25°C), thermal resistance (1.20 K/W j-c), low Qg, and JEDEC-qualified reliability for solar inverters, UPS, and welding equipment.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop architecture optimized for high-frequency operation up to several tens of kHz. Its low tail current and reduced Cres (5 pF) minimize switching losses in both hard-switched and ZVS/ZCS configurations.
The device integrates a monolithic anti-parallel diode with soft recovery characteristics, enabling efficient freewheeling without external diode addition. Gate threshold voltage (4.0 V typ.) and transconductance (24 S) support stable drive across temperature and load variations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in industrial AC/DC and DC/AC stages. |
| IC | 20 A continuous - Rated collector current at TC = 25°C; derates to 21 A at TC = 100°C. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.65 V @ 20 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables high efficiency in mid-power converters. |
| QG | 48 nC - Enables fast, low-loss switching with moderate gate driver strength (e.g., 2–4 A peak). |
| td(off) | 156 ns @ 25°C - Short turn-off delay supports >50 kHz operation in resonant topologies. |
| Tvj(max) | 175°C - Extended junction temperature rating improves thermal headroom in compact designs. |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.20 K/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting with predictable thermal performance. |
Pinout & Package
IGP20N65H5XKSA1 is housed in PG-TO220-3 package - a through-hole, single-island, three-terminal plastic package with isolated collector tab for direct heatsink mounting and mechanical screw retention (M3, 0.6 Nm torque).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main power output terminal | Connected to high-side switch node; electrically tied to metal tab for thermal and electrical path to heatsink. |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives PWM signal; requires 15 V nominal drive; sensitive to ESD and ringing due to low input capacitance (1200 pF). |
| Emiter (E) | Power return and reference | Serves as emitter reference for gate drive; must be low-inductance connection to minimize switching oscillation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low switching energy | 0.23 mJ total (Eon + Eoff) at 10 A/400 V/25°C - reduces heat generation in high-frequency SMPS and inverters. |
| Field-stop trench structure | Optimized carrier lifetime control - achieves best-in-class trade-off between VCE(sat) and switching speed. |
| JEDEC qualification | Qualified per JESD47 and JESD22 standards - ensures reliability in industrial environments with thermal cycling and humidity exposure. |
| Pb-free and RoHS compliant | Lead-free plating on leads and solderable surfaces - meets global environmental compliance requirements without performance compromise. |
| Integrated freewheeling diode | Monolithic anti-parallel diode with soft reverse recovery - eliminates need for discrete diode and reduces layout complexity. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGP20NC60VD | 600 V rating, higher VCE(sat) (1.8 V), larger QG (65 nC), TO-220FP package with insulated tab | Lower voltage margin limits use in 650 V DC bus systems; better suited for 400 V industrial drives | Select when insulation from heatsink is required and 600 V rating suffices. |
| IXYS IXGN20N60B3 | 600 V rating, higher Eoff (0.11 mJ), slower tf (45 ns), TO-247 package | Higher switching loss and larger footprint reduce suitability for compact, high-frequency designs | Prefer where legacy TO-247 layout compatibility is mandatory and thermal budget allows higher loss. |
Compared with STGP20NC60VD and IXGN20N60B3, IGP20N65H5XKSA1 offers superior voltage rating, lower conduction and switching losses, and smaller thermal resistance-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 650 V converter designs requiring long-term reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-emitter voltage for IGP20N65H5XKSA1?
The absolute maximum DC gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V; transient peaks up to ±30 V (≤10 µs, duty cycle <1%) are permitted. Exceeding these limits risks permanent gate oxide damage. A 15 V nominal drive with clamping protection is recommended for reliable operation and optimal switching performance.
Does IGP20N65H5XKSA1 include an integrated freewheeling diode?
Yes, it integrates a monolithic anti-parallel diode with soft reverse recovery characteristics. This diode is co-packaged and electrically matched to the IGBT, eliminating the need for an external diode in most inverter and converter topologies while reducing layout parasitics and component count.
How does thermal resistance affect heatsink selection for this IGBT?
With Rth(j-c) = 1.20 K/W, the junction-to-case temperature rise is directly proportional to power dissipation. For example, at 63 W dissipation (TC = 100°C), ΔT = 75.6 K - meaning a heatsink must maintain case temperature ≤100°C under worst-case ambient and airflow conditions to stay within the 175°C Tvj limit.
Can IGP20N65H5XKSA1 replace older TRENCHSTOP™ 4 IGBTs in existing designs?
Yes - it is designed as a plug-and-play replacement for prior-generation devices like IGP20N65H3. Identical PG-TO220-3 footprint, compatible gate drive requirements (15 V), and improved VCE(sat) and switching energy allow drop-in upgrades that enhance efficiency without board redesign.
