Product details

Overview

IKD04N60R from Infineon is a 600V reverse-conducting IGBT with monolithically integrated freewheeling diode in PG-TO252-3 package, designed for hard-switching motor drives and SMPS. It delivers 4A DC collector current at T_J = 100°C, 1.65V V_CE(sat) at 4A/25°C, 175°C max junction temperature, and 5µs short-circuit withstand time - enabling compact, thermally robust inverter stages in consumer appliance inverters.

For engineers reviewing the IKD04N60R datasheet, IKD04N60R pinout, IKD04N60R application, or IKD04N60R equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated diode topology, RC-series optimized conduction/switching trade-off, thermal resistance (R_thJC = 2.0 K/W for IGBT), JEDEC-qualified reliability, and suitability for 1–20 kHz hard-switching topologies requiring low EMI and tight parameter distribution.

Technical Context

This device implements Infineon's TRENCHSTOP™ RC (Reverse Conducting) technology, integrating an IGBT and fast-recovery diode on a single die within a single PG-TO252-3 leadframe. Its gate threshold voltage (4.3–5.7 V) and transconductance (2.2 S typical) support stable drive with standard ±15 V gate drivers.

The RC architecture eliminates external diode placement, reducing layout parasitics and enabling smoother switching waveforms - evidenced by 43 ns t_rr at 25°C and low di/dt-induced EMI (−330 A/µs peak reverse recovery di/dt). Thermal design is supported by separate IGBT and diode junction-to-case thermal resistances (2.0 K/W and 4.5 K/W respectively).

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CES	600 V - Maximum blocking voltage for use in 400 V DC bus applications with safety margin.
I_C (DC, T_C = 100°C)	4.0 A - Continuous output current capability at practical heatsink temperatures.
V_CE(sat) (4 A, 25°C)	1.65 V - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in high-duty-cycle operation.
t_sc	5 µs - Short-circuit withstand time enables robust overcurrent protection without immediate desat detection.
t_rr (diode, 25°C)	43 ns - Fast reverse recovery minimizes switching loss and voltage overshoot in inductive loads.
R_thJC (IGBT)	2.00 K/W - Enables efficient heat transfer to heatsink in surface-mount power stage layouts.
Q_G	27.0 nC - Gate charge value informs gate driver sizing and switching speed control.

Pinout & Package

IKD04N60R uses the PG-TO252-3 (DPAK) package: a surface-mount, single-ended leadframe with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement. The package supports MSL1 reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020 and 260°C soldering tolerance.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Pin 1 (Gate)	Control input	Receives gate drive signal; requires ≤±20 V rating and low-impedance path to minimize ringing.
Pin 2 (Collector)	High-side power terminal	Connected to DC bus positive; electrically tied to exposed drain pad for thermal conduction.
Pin 3 (Emitter)	Low-side reference and current return	Serves as common emitter node for IGBT and cathode connection for integrated diode.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
TRENCHSTOP™ RC integration	Single-die IGBT + diode eliminates discrete diode placement, reducing PCB area and layout-induced oscillation.
Optimized V_CE(sat)/V_F balance	1.65 V IGBT saturation + 1.70 V diode forward drop at 4 A/25°C enables low total conduction loss in bidirectional current paths.
Smooth switching waveform	Controlled fall time (171 ns) and low di/dt (−330 A/µs) reduce EMI filter burden in cost-sensitive consumer designs.
JEDEC-qualified reliability	Qualified per target industrial/multimarket applications with 175°C T_J(max), Pb-free plating, and MSL1 handling.
Short-circuit ruggedness	5 µs withstand time at V_GE = 15 V and V_CE ≤ 400 V allows use with simple fixed-time shutdown rather than complex desat sensing.

Applications

Washing Machine Inverter Drive

Compact Air Conditioner Fan Motor

Use Scenario: 3-phase inverter driving BLDC compressor/fan motor in residential HVAC units with space-constrained PCB layout.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: RC-IGBT serves as upper-leg switch with integrated diode conducting freewheeling current during PWM off-time.

Use Value: Eliminates need for external diode, saving >12 mm² board area while maintaining <1.7 V total conduction drop at 4 A.

Use Scenario: Single-phase inverter powering PSC or BLDC fan motors in portable air conditioners where thermal headroom is limited.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as half-bridge high-side switch; integrated diode handles reactive current return during dead-time intervals.

Use Value: 2.0 K/W R_thJC enables 4 A continuous operation at T_C = 100°C with minimal heatsink, reducing system weight and cost.

Induction Cooktop Half-Bridge

Industrial UPS Inverter Stage

Use Scenario: Resonant half-bridge operating at 20–50 kHz for coil heating, requiring low-loss switching and robust short-circuit response.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side RC-IGBT switches 400 V DC bus; integrated diode conducts resonant tank current during zero-voltage switching transitions.

Use Value: 43 ns diode t_rr and 0.22 µC Q_rr minimize turn-on loss and voltage spike, improving efficiency above 92% at full load.

Use Scenario: 1–10 kHz hard-switched inverter stage in 1–3 kVA online UPS systems requiring long-term reliability under partial-load thermal cycling.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output stage switch with integrated diode supporting bidirectional current flow during battery backup mode commutation.

Use Value: Tight parameter distribution (±5% V_CE(sat)) ensures balanced current sharing across parallel devices in modular designs.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar reverse-conducting IGBT applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IKD06N60R	Higher rated I_C (6 A @ 100°C), same V_CE(sat) (1.65 V), larger R_thJC (2.5 K/W), identical PG-TO252-3 footprint.	Supports higher continuous current but requires greater thermal margin; suitable when derating headroom is needed.	Select when system peak current exceeds 4 A or ambient temperature exceeds 55°C with limited heatsinking.
IKW04N60D	Standard 600 V IGBT (no integrated diode), TO-220FP package, V_CE(sat) = 1.55 V, R_thJC = 1.5 K/W, requires external diode.	Lower conduction loss but adds component count, layout complexity, and parasitic inductance; not pin-compatible.	Choose only if discrete diode placement is acceptable and lower V_CE(sat) justifies added BOM and layout effort.

Compared with IKD04N60R, IKD06N60R offers scalable current handling in the same footprint but trades thermal resistance, while IKW04N60D reduces conduction loss at the cost of integration - making IKD04N60R optimal for space-constrained, medium-power hard-switching inverters where diode integration directly improves EMI and layout robustness.

FAQ

What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for IKD04N60R in 10 kHz hard-switching?

A 43 Ω external gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for characterization at 10 kHz with 4 A load. For reliable turn-off at this frequency, R_G should remain ≤ 47 Ω to maintain t_off delay ≤ 146 ns and prevent excessive switching loss. Higher values increase fall time and EMI risk without improving dv/dt immunity significantly.

Can IKD04N60R replace a discrete IGBT + diode pair in an existing TO-252 layout?

Yes - IKD04N60R uses the PG-TO252-3 package with identical pinout and footprint to standard TO-252 IGBTs. Pin 1 (Gate), Pin 2 (Collector), and Pin 3 (Emitter) match industry-standard assignments, enabling drop-in replacement without PCB revision when the diode function is required in the same location.

Does the integrated diode support continuous reverse conduction at full rated current?

Yes - the monolithic diode is rated for 8.0 A DC at T_C = 25°C and 4.0 A at T_C = 100°C, matching the IGBT's current capability. Its 1.70 V forward voltage at 4 A/25°C and 43 ns reverse recovery time are characterized for continuous bidirectional current in inverter leg configurations.

Is IKD04N60R suitable for use in automotive under-hood applications?

No - while qualified per JEDEC for industrial/multimarket use, it lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, extended temperature grade (−40°C to +150°C ambient), and automotive-specific stress testing. Its 175°C T_J(max) and RoHS compliance do not satisfy automotive functional safety or qualification requirements.
