Product details
Overview
IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 40 A high-speed trench-gate field-stop IGBT in TRENCHSTOP™ 5 technology, optimized for hard-switching and resonant topologies. It delivers 1.6 V VCE(sat) at 40 A and 25°C, supports 175°C maximum junction temperature, and features low gate charge (95 nC) for fast switching with reduced losses in battery chargers and DC/DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 datasheet, IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 pinout, IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 application, or IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 650 V blocking capability, 120 A pulsed current rating, 0.60 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, AEC-Q101 qualification, and PG-TO247-3 package compatibility with industrial power control designs.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop architecture to achieve low conduction loss and fast switching simultaneously. Its 9 nC reverse transfer capacitance (Cres) and 2500 pF input capacitance (Cies) enable precise gate drive control and reduced Miller effect in high-frequency operation.
The device integrates a monolithic anti-parallel diode with low reverse recovery charge, supporting efficient inductive switching at up to 175°C junction temperature. Its 13 nH internal emitter inductance is characterized for accurate layout-aware switching energy modeling under standardized test conditions (RG = 15 Ω, Lσ = 30 nH, Cσ = 30 pF).
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN40N60A3 | 600 V rating, 1.8 V VCE(sat), 110 nC QG, TO-247 package | Limited to 400 V DC-link systems; higher conduction loss increases thermal stress in high-duty-cycle operation | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets and 600 V margin suffices |
| STMicroelectronics STGW40H65DFB | 650 V rating, 1.7 V VCE(sat), 105 nC QG, built-in FRD with Qrr = 2.5 µC | Higher reverse recovery charge increases turn-off loss in ZVS circuits; requires larger snubber | Prefer for hard-switched inverters where diode performance dominates system loss budget |
Compared with IXGN40N60A3 and STGW40H65DFB, IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 offers superior trade-off between 650 V robustness, 1.6 V conduction loss, and 95 nC gate charge-making it optimal for high-frequency, high-efficiency resonant converters where both switching and conduction losses must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable turn-off at 100 kHz?
For 100 kHz operation with 15 V gate drive, a 15 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for balanced switching speed and EMI control. Increasing beyond 22 Ω extends td(off) to >200 ns and raises Eoff by 25%, risking thermal overstress in continuous conduction mode.
Does IGW40N65F5AXKSA1 include an integrated freewheeling diode?
No-it is a discrete IGBT without an integrated diode. The device relies on an external anti-parallel diode (e.g., IDH08SG60C) selected for low Qrr and matched thermal characteristics to minimize commutation losses in bridge configurations.
Can this IGBT be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (increasing ~1.5 mV/°C from 25°C to 175°C) ensures inherent current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling via shared heatsink to maintain <5°C ΔTvj.
What is the significance of the 'XKSA1' suffix in the part number?
The 'XKSA1' suffix denotes Infineon's standard industrial-grade packaging variant: Pb-free, halogen-free PG-TO247-3 package with tape-and-reel delivery (100 pcs/reel), marked 'G40EF5A', and qualified per industrial temperature grade (−40°C to +175°C).
