Product details
Overview
IKP08N65H5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650V, 8A high-speed TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT copacked with a RAPID 1 fast/soft antiparallel diode in a PG-TO220-3 package. It delivers 1.65V VCE(sat) at 8A/25°C, 175°C max junction temperature, and 22nC total gate charge for hard-switching and resonant topologies in solar converters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IKP08N65H5XKSA1 datasheet, IKP08N65H5XKSA1 pinout, IKP08N65H5XKSA1 application, or IKP08N65H5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low switching energy (0.06–0.16 mJ), soft diode recovery (Qrr = 0.09–0.28 µC), and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability at 175°C junction operation.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop structure optimized for high-speed switching with minimized tail current and reduced Eoff. Its integrated RAPID 1 diode features soft reverse recovery (trr ≤ 55 ns) and low Qrr, enabling efficient bidirectional power flow without external snubbers.
The device operates across -40°C to +175°C junction range with 2.20 K/W IGBT and 2.90 K/W diode junction-to-case thermal resistance. Gate threshold voltage is tightly specified (3.2–4.8 V), supporting robust drive design with ±20 V steady-state and ±30 V transient VGE ratings.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in solar inverters and UPS designs without derating. |
| IC | 8 A continuous - Rated collector current at TC = 25°C; supports 11 A at TC = 100°C for thermally constrained layouts. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.65 V @ 8A/25°C - Low conduction loss enables >98% efficiency in 16–50 kHz hard-switched converters. |
| Eoff | 0.02–0.05 mJ - Ultra-low turn-off energy reduces heat generation during high-frequency PWM operation. |
| Qrr | 0.09–0.28 µC - Low diode reverse recovery charge minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI in bridge-leg configurations. |
| Rth(j-c) (IGBT) | 2.20 K/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting with predictable thermal drop for thermal modeling. |
| tr/tf | 3–6 ns / 15–30 ns - Fast switching transitions reduce dead-time losses and improve waveform fidelity. |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO220-3 package with isolated tab; standard through-hole mounting and screw-down heatsink interface. Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Collector (tab-connected), Pin 3 = Emitter.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 15 V logic-level gate drive; requires <22 nC charge for full enhancement and minimal Miller-induced shoot-through risk. |
| Pin 2 (Collector) | High-side power output | Internally bonded to metal tab; electrically connected to heatsink-requires isolation washer or insulated mounting hardware. |
| Pin 3 (Emitter) | Reference node | Serves as common return for gate drive and load current; must be routed with low-inductance path to minimize VGE noise during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT die | Reduces switching losses by 30% vs. Gen 4 while maintaining low VCE(sat)-enables higher frequency operation without efficiency penalty. |
| RAPID 1 antiparallel diode | Soft recovery (dirr/dt ≤ –380 A/µs) suppresses voltage spikes and reduces snubber component count in half-bridge applications. |
| Junction temperature rating | 175°C maximum - Allows compact thermal design and extended lifetime in sealed industrial enclosures with limited airflow. |
| JEDEC qualification | Validated for industrial power control per JESD47 - ensures long-term reliability under thermal cycling and humidity stress. |
| Pb-free & RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU - supports global manufacturing compliance without lead-based solder compatibility concerns. |
Applications
| Solar String Inverters | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: DC–AC conversion stage in 3–10 kW photovoltaic inverters operating at 16–32 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side IGBT switch in H-bridge topology; RAPID 1 diode handles freewheeling current during dead time. Use Value: Low Ets (0.06–0.10 mJ) and soft diode recovery reduce thermal stress on heatsinks and improve system efficiency above 98.2%. |
Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS with bidirectional power flow between rectifier and inverter stages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter-leg switch enabling zero-voltage switching (ZVS) assist via controlled diode recovery characteristics. Use Value: Tight VGE(th) tolerance (3.2–4.8 V) and low QG ensure consistent turn-on timing across parallel devices in modular UPS designs. |
| Industrial Welding Converters | Mid-Frequency Induction Heaters |
|
Use Scenario: Primary-side IGBT in inverter-fed arc welding power supplies requiring burst-mode current control up to 20 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching element handling pulsed 24 A peak currents; integrated diode manages reverse recovery during polarity reversal. Use Value: 24 A pulsed collector rating and 175°C Tvj support short-duration overload conditions without thermal shutdown. |
Use Scenario: Resonant inverter stage in 20–100 kHz induction heating systems with variable load impedance. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-bridge switch where low Cres (3 pF) and fast td(off) (115 ns typ.) enable precise phase control of resonant tank current. Use Value: Minimal reverse transfer capacitance reduces gate drive coupling and improves ZVS margin across wide load ranges. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT + diode DuoPack applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKP10N65H5XKSA1 | 10 A rated IC, identical VCE, VCE(sat), and thermal specs; 25 nC QG vs. 22 nC | Higher current headroom for future-proofing or parallel reduction; same footprint and drive requirements | Select when system peak current exceeds 8 A but layout space prohibits paralleling. |
| IKP06N65H5XKSA1 | 6 A rated IC, lower Eon/Eoff (0.03/0.015 mJ), 18 nC QG; otherwise identical technology and package | Better suited for ultra-high-efficiency 5–15 kHz designs with strict thermal budgets | Choose for lower-power (<6 A RMS) solar microinverters or compact UPS modules where size and loss are critical. |
Compared with IKP10N65H5XKSA1 and IKP06N65H5XKSA1, the IKP08N65H5XKSA1 provides optimal balance of conduction loss, switching loss, and thermal margin for 8 A nominal industrial converters-avoiding overdesign or under-specification in mid-range power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG(on)/RG(off) = 48 Ω for test conditions yielding 0.06–0.16 mJ switching energy. For 15 V gate drive, values up to 100 Ω maintain safe dv/dt and di/dt limits while reducing EMI; exceeding 120 Ω risks increased Eon and thermal stress due to prolonged transition times.
Is the metal tab electrically isolated from internal circuitry?
No-the collector (Pin 2) is directly bonded to the metal tab. The tab must be electrically isolated from the heatsink using an insulating washer or thermal pad rated for ≥650 V working voltage to prevent short circuits and ensure safety compliance.
Can this IGBT replace older TRENCHSTOP™ 4 devices without board changes?
Yes-IKP08N65H5XKSA1 is a pin-compatible, drop-in replacement for IKP08N65E5 and IKP08N65H3 in PG-TO220-3 packages. Its lower VCE(sat) and reduced switching losses improve efficiency without requiring gate drive or layout modifications.
What is the typical diode reverse recovery behavior at 150°C junction temperature?
At Tvj = 150°C, trr increases to 42–55 ns and Qrr rises to 0.20–0.28 µC versus 24–40 ns and 0.09–0.13 µC at 25°C. This predictable degradation is factored into the device's SOA curves and allows accurate thermal-aware design of snubberless bridge-leg operation.
