Product details
Overview
IKP20N65H5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650V, 20A high-speed TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT copacked with a RAPID 1 fast/soft anti-parallel diode in PG-TO220-3 package. It delivers 1.65V VCE(sat) at 20A/25°C, 175°C max junction temperature, and 48nC total gate charge for hard-switching and resonant topologies in solar converters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IKP20N65H5XKSA1 datasheet, IKP20N65H5XKSA1 pinout, IKP20N65H5XKSA1 application, or IKP20N65H5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low switching energy (0.06mJ Eoff @ 2A), soft diode recovery (Qrr = 0.11µC @ 2A), and JEDEC-qualified 175°C operation in industrial power control designs.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop structure with optimized carrier lifetime control to achieve best-in-class conduction–switching trade-off. Its integrated RAPID 1 diode features tailored minority-carrier lifetime for low Qrr and soft reverse recovery (dIrr/dt = –660 A/µs @ 2A).
The device operates with 15V gate drive (recommended ≥7.5V), supports 60A pulsed collector current, and maintains safe operating area up to 650V with 1.2 K/W IGBT junction-to-case thermal resistance-enabling compact heatsink design in mid-to-high-frequency converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650V - Enables use in 400V DC bus systems with 50% voltage margin for transient clamping. |
| IC | 20A continuous - Rated for 21A at 100°C case temperature, supporting sustained 1–2kW power stages. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.65V @ 20A/25°C - Reduces conduction loss to ~33W at full load, critical for thermal management. |
| QG | 48nC - Enables efficient 32Ω gate drive at 400V/10A switching with <200ns total propagation delay. |
| Eoff | 0.02mJ @ 2A - Low turn-off loss supports >100kHz operation without excessive snubber dissipation. |
| trr (diode) | 24ns @ 2A - Minimizes commutation loss and EMI in bridge-leg configurations with fast di/dt. |
| Rth(j-c) (IGBT) | 1.2 K/W - Allows 63W power dissipation at 100°C case, simplifying thermal interface design. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKP20N65ES5XKSA1 | Same 650V/20A rating but uses TRENCHSTOP™ 5 Enhanced Speed (ES5) silicon; lower VCE(sat) (1.55V) but higher QG (62nC). | Better conduction loss at high ambient temperatures; less suitable for >100kHz due to increased gate drive demand. | Select when thermal budget is constrained and switching frequency ≤50kHz. |
| FGH20N60UFD | 600V/20A, TO-247 package; higher VCE(sat) (1.8V) but lower Eoff (0.015mJ @ 2A) and faster tf (11ns). | Superior high-frequency performance but lacks integrated diode-requires external ultrafast diode. | Select when discrete diode optimization is needed and board space allows TO-247 footprint. |
Compared with IKP20N65ES5XKSA1 and FGH20N60UFD, IKP20N65H5XKSA1 offers the optimal balance of low gate charge, integrated soft-recovery diode, and 650V rating-making it preferred for cost-sensitive, space-constrained solar and UPS inverters requiring plug-and-play replacement.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching at 100kHz?
A 32Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for 400V/10A inductive loads with 15V drive, yielding 156ns td(off) and 0.06mJ Eoff. Increasing beyond 47Ω risks exceeding safe dv/dt limits and increasing Eon; values below 15Ω require careful PCB layout to avoid ringing.
Does the integrated RAPID 1 diode support synchronous rectification in buck-derived topologies?
No-the RAPID 1 diode is optimized as an anti-parallel freewheeling device in bridge legs, not as a controlled synchronous rectifier. Its VF (1.45V @ 10A) and lack of gate control prevent use in synchronous rectification; external MOSFETs are required for that function.
Can IKP20N65H5XKSA1 operate safely at 175°C junction temperature with 100% rated current?
No-continuous 20A operation is only rated at TC = 25°C. At 100°C case temperature, max IC drops to 21A, and at 175°C junction temperature, the device must be derated to ≤10A to maintain reliability and SOA compliance per Figure 3.
Is the PG-TO220-3 package electrically isolated between collector and mounting flange?
Yes-the PG-TO220-3 package features electrically isolated collector tab (Pin 2), allowing direct heatsink mounting without insulating pads. The isolation withstands ≥2500V RMS per IEC 60747-9, verified during production Hi-Pot testing.
