Product details
Overview
IGW40N65H5FKSA1 from Infineon is a 650V, 40A high-speed TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT in PG-TO247-3 package, optimized for hard-switching and resonant topologies in industrial power converters. It delivers 1.65V VCE(sat) at 40A/25°C, 95nC gate charge, and 175°C maximum junction temperature, enabling efficient operation in solar inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IGW40N65H5FKSA1 datasheet, IGW40N65H5FKSA1 pinout, IGW40N65H5FKSA1 application, or IGW40N65H5FKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include switching energy (0.14–0.76 mJ), thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 0.60 K/W), collector-emitter breakdown voltage, gate threshold voltage (4.0V typ), and safe operating area at elevated temperatures.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop technology to achieve low conduction loss and fast switching with minimized tail current. Its dynamic parameters-19–22 ns turn-on delay, 4–12 ns rise time, and 165–240 ns turn-off delay-are specified across 5A–40A load currents and 25°C–150°C junction temperatures.
The device integrates a monolithic anti-parallel diode with soft recovery characteristics, supports ±20V DC and ±30V transient gate-emitter voltage, and operates within a -40°C to +175°C junction temperature range while maintaining stable VCE(sat) up to 1.95V at 175°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650V in boost, inverter, and converter stages without avalanche stress. |
| IC | 40A continuous - Supports sustained 40A collector current at TC = 25°C, derating to 46A at TC = 100°C per thermal limits. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.65V @ 40A/25°C - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction losses and improves system efficiency in high-current switching nodes. |
| QG | 95nC - Enables fast, low-loss gate drive with moderate gate resistor selection (e.g., 15Ω) for balanced Eon/Eoff. |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.60 K/W - Allows direct heatsink mounting with predictable thermal drop; enables >200W dissipation at ΔT = 120K. |
| Tvj(max) | 175°C - Supports high ambient or high-power-density designs with extended reliability margin under transient overloads. |
| Ets | 0.14–0.76 mJ - Total switching energy varies with load and temperature; critical for calculating total losses in 10–100 kHz converters. |
Pinout & Package
IGW40N65H5FKSA1 uses the PG-TO247-3 package: insulated plastic case with isolated metal tab (collector), three leads, and screw-mount capability. The package provides low thermal resistance and robust mechanical mounting for industrial power modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control terminal accepting ±20V DC / ±30V transient drive; requires low-inductance gate loop to minimize oscillation during fast transitions. |
| Pin 2 & backside | Collector | Main high-side power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for direct heatsink attachment and low-inductance current path. |
| Pin 3 | Emitter | Power return node; internal emitter inductance is 13.0 nH (measured 5 mm from case), influencing switching waveform fidelity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Best-in-class hard-switching efficiency | Combines low VCE(sat) (1.65V) and low QG (95nC) to minimize combined conduction and switching losses in 10–50 kHz applications. |
| Plug-and-play replacement for prior generations | Pin-compatible and electrically compatible with earlier TRENCHSTOP™ IGBTs (e.g., H3/H4), simplifying upgrade paths without board redesign. |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Validated for industrial power control applications per JEDEC standards, supporting long-term operation under thermal cycling and humidity stress. |
| Pb-free and RoHS-compliant | Lead plating meets EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU; suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and renewable energy equipment. |
Applications
| Solar Converters | Uninterruptible Power Supplies |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: DC-to-AC inversion stage in string or central solar inverters operating at 16–30 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in three-phase inverter bridge; handles bidirectional reactive power flow and grid-synchronization timing.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency power switch in full-bridge or three-phase inverter; synchronized to battery-charger and bypass-control logic. Use Value: 175°C Tvj(max) and stable VCE(sat) enable reliable overload handling (e.g., 150% for 60 s) without derating. |
| Welding Converters | Mid-to-High Frequency SMPS |
Use Scenario: Inverter-based arc welding power supply with 20–100 kHz PWM modulation for precise current control and arc stability. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switching element in resonant LLC or phase-shifted full-bridge topology; controls duty cycle and frequency modulation. Use Value: Fast turn-off (165–240 ns td(off)) and low tail current minimize energy loss during high-di/dt current transitions in short-circuit events. | Use Scenario: Industrial AC-DC front-end or isolated DC-DC converter operating at 50–100 kHz for factory automation and motor drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage switch in active clamp forward or half-bridge configuration; manages primary-side energy transfer timing and reset.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IGP40N65H5 | Same die, PG-TO220-3 package; higher Rth(j-a) (62 K/W vs. 40 K/W); lower Ptot at TC = 100°C (125W vs. 250W). | Limited to lower-power (<1.5 kW), natural-convection-cooled designs; unsuitable for forced-air or high-ambient environments. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs thermal performance and board space allows larger heatsink footprint. |
| IKW40N65ES5 | 650V/40A TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT with integrated co-packaged diode; same PG-TO247-3; slightly higher VCE(sat) (1.75V typ) but improved diode softness. | Better suited for ZVS/ZCS topologies requiring ultra-soft diode recovery; preferred in high-frequency resonant converters. | Select when diode reverse recovery behavior dominates system EMI or efficiency, not raw IGBT switching speed. |
Compared with IGP40N65H5 and IKW40N65ES5, IGW40N65H5FKSA1 offers optimal balance of low gate charge, low saturation voltage, and superior thermal interface-making it ideal for forced-air-cooled, medium-to-high-power industrial inverters where layout inductance and heatsink mass are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG(on) = RG(off) = 15Ω for characterization. For reliable operation, use 10–22Ω to limit peak gate current while maintaining <25 ns rise/fall times. Higher values increase switching losses and risk shoot-through in bridge configurations due to delayed turn-off.
Does IGW40N65H5FKSA1 include an integrated freewheeling diode?
No-it is a discrete IGBT without an integrated diode. A separate ultra-fast, soft-recovery anti-parallel diode (e.g., IDH08SG60C) must be used in inverter legs. The device's internal emitter inductance (13.0 nH) affects diode commutation dynamics and should be accounted for in layout.
Can this IGBT operate safely at 100 kHz switching frequency?
Yes, but only at reduced current levels. At 100 kHz, conduction and switching losses scale significantly; operation above 50 kHz requires strict thermal management, low-inductance layout, and derated IC (≤20A) to maintain Tvj ≤ 150°C under typical heatsink conditions.
What is the meaning of "FKSA1" in the part number?
"FKSA1" is Infineon's packaging and compliance suffix: F = TO247 package, K = lead-free/RoHS-compliant plating, S = tape-and-reel packaging, A1 = revision level and internal manufacturing code. It does not indicate functional differences from IGW40N65H5.
