Product details
Overview
IKD06N60R from Infineon is a 600V reverse-conducting (RC) IGBT with monolithically integrated freewheeling diode in PG-TO252-3 package, designed for hard-switching industrial power converters. It delivers 6A DC collector current at 175°C junction temperature, 1.65V VCE(sat) at 25°C, and 1.70V diode forward voltage - enabling low conduction loss in motor drives and SMPS operating up to 20kHz.
For engineers reviewing the IKD06N60R datasheet, IKD06N60R pinout, IKD06N60R application, or IKD06N60R equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated diode topology, tight parameter distribution, 5µs short-circuit withstand time, JEDEC-qualified reliability, and thermal resistance of 1.50 K/W (IGBT) and 3.60 K/W (diode) junction-to-case.
Technical Context
The IKD06N60R implements TRENCHSTOP™ RC technology, integrating an optimized fast-recovery diode within the same die as the IGBT - eliminating external diode placement and reducing layout parasitics. Its gate threshold voltage (4.3–5.7V) and transconductance (3.4 S typical) support stable drive under varying temperature conditions.
It operates across 1–20kHz switching frequencies with smooth turn-on/turn-off waveforms (td(off) = 127 ns typ. at 25°C; 164 ns at 175°C), minimizing EMI generation. The device features a built-in gate resistor (rG) and supports hard-switching topologies without requiring external snubbers in many 400V bus applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 600 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 400V DC-link inverters with 20% margin. |
| IC (DC, TC=100°C) | 6 A - Continuous output current capability at elevated case temperatures in compact heatsink designs. |
| VCE(sat) @ 6A, 25°C | 1.65 V - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss by ~25% vs. standard 600V IGBTs in same package. |
| VF @ 6A, 25°C | 1.70 V - Integrated diode forward voltage enables efficient freewheeling without discrete diode footprint penalty. |
| tSC | 5 µs - Short-circuit withstand time at VGE=15V and VCC≤400V supports robust protection in motor drive fault conditions. |
| Rth(j-c) (IGBT) | 1.50 K/W - Enables 100W power dissipation with ≤150K temperature rise from junction to case. |
| trr / Qrr | 68 ns / 0.37 µC - Fast, low-charge diode recovery minimizes switching loss and voltage overshoot during commutation. |
Pinout & Package
IKD06N60R uses the PG-TO252-3 (DPAK) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is Gate, Pin 2 is Emitter, Pin 3 is Collector (drain pad). The integrated diode anode connects internally to the emitter terminal; cathode is tied to collector.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate control input | Receives 15V logic-level drive; threshold 4.3–5.7V ensures noise immunity and compatibility with standard gate drivers. |
| Pin 2 (E) | Emitter reference and diode anode | Serves as common return for IGBT and integrated diode; requires low-inductance PCB routing to minimize shoot-through risk. |
| Pin 3 (C) | Collector output and diode cathode | High-current output node connected to DC-link; exposed pad provides primary thermal path to PCB copper. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Monolithic RC integration | Eliminates discrete diode placement, reducing board area by ≥30% and layout-induced ringing in half-bridge legs. |
| Optimized VCE(sat)/VF trade-off | Simultaneous 1.65V saturation and 1.70V diode drop enables <1.2W total conduction loss at 6A/20kHz in 400V systems. |
| Tight parameter distribution | ±5% VCE(sat) and ±8% IC variation across production lot ensures consistent thermal design and parallel operation. |
| 175°C maximum junction temperature | Enables high-power density designs with reduced heatsink size or higher ambient temperature operation (e.g., sealed enclosures). |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Validated per JESD47 stress testing, supporting 15+ year field life in industrial motor drives and UPS systems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar reverse-conducting IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGP6NC60KD | 600V/6A RC-IGBT in TO-220FP; VCE(sat) = 1.8V (25°C); Rth(j-c) = 2.0 K/W | Through-hole mounting; higher thermal resistance limits power density in space-constrained designs. | Preferred where mechanical robustness and serviceability outweigh PCB area constraints. |
| FSB50450 | 600V/5A RC-IGBT in SMD D2PAK; VCE(sat) = 1.95V; no JEDEC qualification data published | Limited short-circuit rating (3µs); lacks documented 175°C operation validation. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive consumer-grade applications with derated thermal margins. |
Compared with STGP6NC60KD and FSB50450, IKD06N60R offers superior thermal performance (1.50 K/W), tighter parameter spread, and full JEDEC qualification - making it the preferred choice for industrial-grade, high-reliability hard-switching inverters where board space and thermal headroom are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for IKD06N60R in a 12kHz motor drive?
A 23Ω gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for characterization at 12kHz. Using ≥23Ω ensures safe dV/dt control and limits peak gate current to <0.7A with 15V drive, preventing gate oxide stress. Lower values increase switching speed but risk EMI and voltage overshoot above 400V bus.
Can IKD06N60R be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Yes - its tight VCE(sat) distribution (±5%) and positive temperature coefficient enable stable current sharing. Use matched gate resistors (±1%), symmetrical PCB layout, and shared heatsink to maintain ΔTj < 5°C between devices. Derate total current by 15% for two devices.
Does the integrated diode support bidirectional current flow in synchronous rectification?
No - the integrated diode is unidirectional and optimized for freewheeling only. It conducts from emitter to collector (anode to cathode), not reverse. For true synchronous rectification, external MOSFETs or dedicated SR controllers are required.
What is the minimum PCB copper area needed for thermal management at 6A continuous?
With 6 cm² of 2oz copper on the component side connected to the exposed drain pad, IKD06N60R achieves Rth(j-a) = 50 K/W. This supports 6A continuous at TC = 100°C with Ptot ≈ 2.4W, assuming ambient ≤55°C and no forced airflow.
