Product details
Overview
IGW40N65F5FKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 40 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 1.6 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 in solar inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IGW40N65F5FKSA1 datasheet, IGW40N65F5FKSA1 pinout, IGW40N65F5FKSA1 application, or IGW40N65F5FKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat) stability across temperature, turn-off delay time (160–220 ns), Eoff energy (0.03–0.16 mJ), and PG-TO247-3 thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 0.60 K/W).
Technical Context
This IGBT employs field-stop trench gate architecture optimized for high-frequency switching in DC-AC and DC-DC conversion stages. Its low output capacitance (Coes = 40 pF) and reverse transfer capacitance (Cres = 9 pF) minimize Miller effect, while internal emitter inductance (13 nH) is calibrated for accurate dynamic characterization under standardized test conditions (VCC = 400 V, IC = 5–20 A, RG = 15 Ω).
The device operates with gate-emitter threshold voltage (VGE(th)) of 3.2–4.8 V and transconductance (gfs) of 50 S, enabling robust drive margin and predictable current control. Its SOA is validated up to 1 µs pulse width at 650 V and 175°C, supporting reliable operation in welding and mid-to-high-frequency SMPS designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in boost, inverter, and PFC stages without breakdown. |
| IC | 40 A continuous - Rated collector current at TC = 25°C; derates to 46 A at TC = 100°C per thermal limits. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.6 V @ 40 A, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables high efficiency in 10–100 kHz switching applications. |
| QG | 95 nC - Enables fast turn-on/turn-off with moderate gate driver power (e.g., 1–2 W at 50 kHz). |
| td(off) | 160–220 ns - Short turn-off delay supports high-frequency operation while maintaining safe commutation margins. |
| Eoff | 0.03–0.16 mJ - Low turn-off energy reduces heat generation in hard-switched topologies like two-level inverters. |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.60 K/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting with predictable thermal drop for thermal design. |
| Tvj(max) | 175°C - Supports extended operation in high-ambient industrial environments with margin for transient overload. |
Pinout & Package
IGW40N65F5FKSA1 is housed in a PG-TO247-3 package with isolated metal tab (collector-connected backside). The package provides low thermal resistance and mechanical robustness for high-power industrial mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control terminal requiring ±20 V max drive; low input capacitance (Cies = 2500 pF) eases gate driver selection. |
| Pin 2 & Backside | Collector | Main high-side power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for direct heatsink attachment and low-inductance layout. |
| Pin 3 | Emitter | Power return path; internal emitter inductance (13 nH) impacts switching waveform fidelity and snubber design. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IGP40N65F5 | Same die, PG-TO220-3 package; Rth(j-c) = 0.60 K/W but higher Rth(j-a) (62 K/W vs. 40 K/W); LE = 7 nH | Lower power density; limited to <100 W continuous dissipation without forced cooling | Select when cost-sensitive, lower-power, or PCB-mount-only designs preclude TO247 footprint. |
| IKW40N65ES5 | Enhanced speed variant: tf = 8 ns (vs. 10–16 ns), Eoff = 0.025 mJ (vs. 0.03–0.16 mJ); same VCE/IC/Tvj(max) | Better suited for >50 kHz resonant topologies where switching loss dominates conduction loss | Select when optimizing for ultra-low Eoff in ZVS/ZCS circuits, accepting slightly higher VCE(sat) (1.65 V typ). |
Compared with IGP40N65F5 and IKW40N65ES5, IGW40N65F5FKSA1 offers the optimal balance of thermal capability (TO247 package), proven hard-switching performance (Ets = 0.10–0.66 mJ), and broad industrial qualification-making it preferred for medium-to-high power UPS and solar inverters requiring long-term reliability and heatsink-integrated mounting.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG(on) = RG(off) = 15 Ω for standardized switching tests. For reliable operation, RG should not exceed 22 Ω to maintain td(off) ≤ 220 ns and prevent excessive Eoff increase. Lower values (10–15 Ω) are advised for >30 kHz operation to limit dv/dt-induced false turn-on.
Does IGW40N65F5FKSA1 include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No. IGW40N65F5FKSA1 is a discrete IGBT without an integrated freewheeling diode. External diode selection-particularly SiC Schottky diodes-is required for inductive load applications. The device's low tail current and fast fall time make it highly compatible with SiC diodes to minimize reverse recovery losses.
How does thermal resistance differ between IGW40N65F5FKSA1 and IGP40N65F5?
Both share identical Rth(j-c) = 0.60 K/W, but IGW40N65F5FKSA1 (PG-TO247-3) has Rth(j-a) = 40 K/W versus IGP40N65F5's 62 K/W (PG-TO220-3). This 35% improvement in ambient thermal resistance allows ~25% higher continuous power dissipation in natural convection, making IGW40N65F5FKSA1 preferable for compact, high-power industrial enclosures.
Is this part suitable for use in automotive applications?
No. IGW40N65F5FKSA1 is qualified per JEDEC standards for industrial applications only-not AEC-Q101. It lacks automotive-specific screening (e.g., HTOL, UHAST, vibration testing) and is not rated for under-hood temperature extremes or automotive EMI requirements. Use Infineon's Automotive IGBT portfolio (e.g., AIKxx series) for vehicle applications.
