Product details
Overview
IHW40T60FKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 40 A TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT with integrated emitter-controlled high-efficiency (HE) diode in a PG-TO247-3 package. It delivers low VCE(sat) of 1.55 V (typ. at Tj = 25°C), 5 µs short-circuit withstand time at VGE = 15 V, and operates up to 175°C junction temperature-enabling compact, high-efficiency inductive cooking inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IHW40T60FKSA1 datasheet, IHW40T60FKSA1 pinout, IHW40T60FKSA1 application, or IHW40T60FKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-die DuoPack configuration, soft fast-recovery diode performance (trr = 143 ns typ. at 25°C), gate charge of 215 nC, thermal resistance RthJC = 0.49 K/W for IGBT and 1.05 K/W for diode, and JEDEC JESD47 qualification.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ and fieldstop technology optimized for 600 V hard- and soft-switching applications. Its positive temperature coefficient for VCE(sat) enables stable parallel operation, while tight parameter distribution ensures consistent dynamic behavior across production lots.
The integrated anti-parallel HE diode features low Qrr (0.92 µC typ. at 25°C) and controlled reverse recovery (Irrm = 16.3 A, dir/dt = 603 A/µs), minimizing switching losses and EMI in resonant topologies. Gate drive requirements are defined by 215 nC total charge and ±20 V steady-state gate-emitter voltage rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 600 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 400 V DC bus designs with margin. |
| IC | 40 A continuous - Rated collector current at TC = 100°C, enabling high-power density inverter stages. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.55 V (typ. @ 25°C) - Low conduction loss reduces thermal stress and improves efficiency at rated load. |
| tSC | 5 µs - Short-circuit withstand time at VGE = 15 V, VCC ≤ 400 V, Tj ≤ 150°C supports robust fault handling. |
| RthJC (IGBT) | 0.49 K/W - Enables high power dissipation (303 W @ TC = 25°C) with manageable case-to-junction delta-T. |
| QG | 215 nC - Total gate charge determines required driver peak current and influences switching speed control. |
| trr (diode) | 143 ns (typ. @ 25°C) - Fast, soft reverse recovery minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI in ZVS/ZCS circuits. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT + integrated diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGW40H65DFB | 650 V rating, 40 A, VCE(sat) = 1.6 V, tSC = 3 µs, RthJC = 0.55 K/W | Higher voltage margin but lower short-circuit ruggedness and higher conduction loss | Preferred where 650 V bus margin is critical and fault duration is strictly limited. |
| IXYS IXGN40N60A3 | 600 V, 40 A, VCE(sat) = 1.8 V, tSC = 10 µs, RthJC = 0.52 K/W, no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; superior short-circuit immunity but higher system component count | Chosen when extended short-circuit tolerance outweighs board space and cost of discrete diode integration. |
Compared with STGW40H65DFB and IXGN40N60A3, IHW40T60FKSA1 offers the lowest conduction loss and best thermal resistance among 600 V 40 A DuoPack IGBTs, making it optimal for thermally constrained inductive heating and high-efficiency PFC designs where integrated diode functionality reduces layout complexity.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for continuous operation?
The IHW40T60FKSA1 has a continuous gate-emitter voltage rating of ±20 V. Transient operation up to ±25 V is permitted for pulse widths under 10 µs with duty cycle less than 0.01. Exceeding ±20 V continuously risks gate oxide degradation and threshold voltage shift over time.
Does this device require an external freewheeling diode?
No. The IHW40T60FKSA1 integrates an emitter-controlled high-efficiency (HE) diode in a DuoPack configuration. This diode provides soft, fast reverse recovery (trr = 143 ns typ.) and is rated for 60 A DC at TC = 25°C, eliminating the need for an external diode in standard half-bridge or inverter applications.
How does junction temperature affect VCE(sat) performance?
VCE(sat) increases predictably with junction temperature due to the device's positive temperature coefficient: from 1.55 V at 25°C to 1.90 V at 175°C (typ.). This behavior ensures stable current sharing in paralleled configurations and simplifies thermal derating calculations in thermal design.
Is the PG-TO247-3 package electrically insulated?
No. The PG-TO247-3 package used for IHW40T60FKSA1 has an electrically conductive metal tab (collector-connected). Electrical isolation between the collector and heatsink must be achieved using an insulating washer or ceramic pad. Thermal interface material must not compromise dielectric strength.
