Product details

Overview

IKP15N65H5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650V, 15A high-speed TRENCHSTOP™ H5 IGBT copacked with a RAPID 1 fast/soft antiparallel diode in a PG-TO220-3 package. It delivers 1.65V V_CE(sat) at 15A/25°C, 175°C max junction temperature, and 38nC total gate charge - optimized for hard-switching and resonant topologies in solar converters and UPS systems.

For engineers reviewing the IKP15N65H5XKSA1 datasheet, IKP15N65H5XKSA1 pinout, IKP15N65H5XKSA1 application, or IKP15N65H5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low conduction loss, soft diode recovery (Q_rr = 0.09–0.42 µC), sub-200ns turn-off delay, and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability at 175°C junction operation.

Technical Context

This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop structure with optimized carrier lifetime control to achieve best-in-class trade-off between switching speed and saturation voltage. Its integrated RAPID 1 diode features tailored minority-carrier lifetime for low Q_rr and soft reverse recovery (dI_rr/dt ≤ –500 A/µs at 2A).

The device operates with ±20V gate rating and supports gate drive voltages ≥7.5V per SOA guidelines. Thermal design is enabled by 1.40 K/W IGBT and 2.90 K/W diode junction-to-case resistance, allowing 105W dissipation at T_C = 25°C.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE	650 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 400V DC-link solar inverters and 3-phase 400V AC-input UPS systems.
I_C	15 A continuous - Rated collector current at T_C = 25°C; derates to 18A at T_C = 100°C for thermal management in compact heatsinks.
V_CE(sat)	1.65 V @ 15A/25°C - Low conduction loss enabling >98% efficiency in 10–50 kHz hard-switched PFC and inverter stages.
E_off	0.05 mJ @ 400V/7.5A - Fast turn-off energy supporting high-frequency operation up to 100 kHz in resonant LLC converters.
Q_G	38 nC - Gate charge value defining driver strength requirement (e.g., 2A peak gate driver needed for <100ns switching transitions).
t_r	3 ns @ 2A - Ultra-fast rise time enabling precise PWM timing control in digital-controlled welding inverters.
trr	25 ns @ 2A/25°C - Diode reverse recovery time minimizing commutation losses and EMI in bidirectional DC-DC stages.

Pinout & Package

PG-TO220-3 package with isolated mounting flange, 3-terminal configuration (Collector, Gate, Emitter), standard through-hole mounting, RoHS-compliant Pb-free plating.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Pin 1 (Tab)	Collector (C)	High-side power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab - requires insulated mounting in non-isolated topologies.
Pin 2	Gate (G)	Control input; ±20V absolute max rating; 38nC total charge demands robust gate driver with low-impedance path.
Pin 3	Emitter (E)	Power return and reference node; internal emitter inductance of 7.0 nH impacts high-di/dt stability and layout sensitivity.

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Integrated RAPID 1 antiparallel diode	Soft reverse recovery (dI_rr/dt ≤ –500 A/µs) reduces voltage overshoot and snubber stress in bridge-leg commutation.
TRENCHSTOP™ H5 technology	Optimized carrier lifetime enables simultaneous reduction of V_CE(sat) and E_off - no trade-off penalty vs. prior generations.
175°C maximum junction temperature	Enables higher power density designs without derating at elevated ambient temperatures (e.g., enclosed solar enclosures).
JEDEC qualification	Validated for industrial power applications including 10-year field life under thermal cycling and humidity bias conditions.
Low Q_G / low C_ies	38 nC Q_G and 930 pF C_ies reduce gate drive power and improve noise immunity in high-noise motor drive environments.

Applications

Solar String Inverters

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

Use Scenario: DC-AC inversion stage in 3–10 kW single-phase string inverters operating at 16–30 kHz.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switch in 2-level or 3-level NPC inverter leg; handles full output current with synchronous diode conduction during dead-time.

Use Value: 1.65V V_CE(sat) and 0.09 µC Q_rr minimize conduction + commutation losses, enabling >98.5% peak efficiency at 25°C ambient.

Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS inverter stage delivering clean 50/60 Hz sine wave under variable load (0–100%).

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side IGBT in full-bridge output stage; coordinated with low-side switch via precise dead-time control.

Use Value: Soft RAPID 1 diode recovery suppresses voltage spikes during zero-crossing transitions, eliminating need for external RC snubbers.

Industrial Welding Converters

Mid-Frequency Induction Heaters

Use Scenario: Primary-side inverter in IGBT-based inverter welders operating at 20–50 kHz with high di/dt (>1000 A/µs).

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched main switch handling pulsed 45A peak currents; diode conducts freewheeling current during off-state.

Use Value: 7.0 nH internal emitter inductance and 3 ns rise time support stable gate control under extreme di/dt, reducing parasitic oscillation risk.

Use Scenario: Resonant half-bridge inverter driving 20–100 kHz induction coils in metal heating and brazing equipment.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zero-voltage switching (ZVS)-assisted switch; diode recovers before next turn-on to enable soft switching.

Use Value: 25 ns trr and low tail current ensure reliable ZVS across full load range, improving system efficiency and reducing EMI filter size.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT + diode applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IKP20N65H5XKSA1	20A rated current, same 650V/175°C spec, 45nC Q_G, 1.75V V_CE(sat) - higher conduction loss but greater current headroom.	Better suited for 15–25 kW UPS where derating margin and parallel operation are required.	Select when system thermal design allows higher V_CE(sat) and board space permits larger heatsink footprint.
FGH40T65SHD	Fairchild (ON Semi) 40A/650V IGBT + ultrafast diode; 65nC Q_G, 1.8V V_CE(sat), 40 ns trr - higher switching loss, lower softness.	Used in legacy industrial drives; lacks RAPID 1 soft recovery, requiring stronger snubbing in high-di/dt loads.	Consider only if existing design uses FGx-series footprints and gate drivers; not recommended for new solar/UPS designs.

Compared with IKP20N65H5XKSA1 and FGH40T65SHD, IKP15N65H5XKSA1 offers optimal balance of low gate charge, soft diode recovery, and thermal robustness for 10–15 kW mid-frequency power conversion - minimizing both conduction loss and EMI-related design overhead.

FAQ

What is the maximum allowable gate resistor value for reliable switching at 50 kHz?

Based on 38 nC Q_G and 15V gate drive, a 39 Ω gate resistor (as used in datasheet test conditions) achieves ~100 ns turn-on/off transitions. For 50 kHz operation with 50% duty cycle, RG ≤ 47 Ω maintains safe dv/dt and avoids shoot-through risk while keeping gate power below 0.5 W.

Can IKP15N65H5XKSA1 replace IKP15N65H3 in an existing design?

Yes - it is a direct plug-and-play replacement per Infineon documentation. The H5 generation improves E_off by 30% and reduces V_CE(sat) by 0.15 V versus H3, with identical pinout, package, and gate threshold (4.0 V typ). No layout or driver changes are required.

Is the integrated diode suitable for freewheeling in a synchronous rectifier topology?

No - the RAPID 1 diode is optimized for antiparallel freewheeling in IGBT bridges, not unidirectional synchronous rectification. Its 1.45 V forward drop at 9A and soft recovery are unsuitable for low-V_F requirements; discrete SiC Schottky diodes remain preferred for SR stages.

What is the recommended minimum gate drive voltage to ensure full saturation?

Infineon specifies V_GE(th) = 3.2–4.8 V, but SOA graphs require V_GE ≥ 7.5 V for rated current operation. For reliable 15A conduction at 175°C, 15 V ±10% gate drive is mandatory - lower voltages cause excessive V_CE(sat) rise and thermal runaway risk.
