Product details
Overview
IKW03N120H2FKSA1 from Infineon is a 1200V, 3A high-speed IGBT with integrated emitter-controlled HE diode in PG-TO-247-3 package. It delivers 0.15mJ turn-off energy at Tj=25°C, 2.2V VCE(sat) at 3A/25°C, and 42ns trr for soft-switching resonant converters. Designed for SMPS, lamp ballasts, and ZVS-converters requiring low-loss, temperature-stable switching.
For engineers reviewing the IKW03N120H2FKSA1 datasheet, IKW03N120H2FKSA1 pinout, IKW03N120H2FKSA1 application, or IKW03N120H2FKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include Eoff optimization at IC=3A, tight parameter distribution across temperature, parallel switching capability, and JEDEC2 qualification for industrial power conversion.
Technical Context
This 2nd-generation HighSpeed IGBT uses emitter-controlled technology to achieve soft, fast recovery in its anti-parallel diode-critical for minimizing voltage overshoot and EMI in resonant topologies. Its optimized Eoff (0.15mJ @25°C, 0.26mJ @150°C) and low Crss (7pF) support stable ZVS operation up to 140kHz.
The device features temperature-stable VGE(th) (2.1–3.9V), low thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.0K/W), and robust SOA up to 9.9A pulsed current. Gate charge is 22nC, enabling efficient drive with standard gate drivers while maintaining tight dynamic parameter spread across production lots.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 1200V - supports DC-link voltages up to 800V in ZVS converters with margin |
| IC | 3A continuous - rated for sustained conduction in 1–3kW SMPS and ballast designs |
| Eoff | 0.15mJ @25°C - enables low-loss turn-off in high-frequency resonant circuits |
| VCE(sat) | 2.2V @3A/25°C - reduces conduction loss and thermal stress vs. earlier H1/H1A generations |
| trr | 42ns @25°C - ensures soft diode recovery with minimal reverse recovery current (Irrm = 10.3A) |
| RthJC | 2.0K/W - allows 62.5W power dissipation at TC=25°C with manageable junction rise |
| Qg | 22nC - compatible with standard ±15V gate drivers without excessive drive power |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO-247-3 package with isolated tab (collector-connected), standard through-hole mounting, and 2.0K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. Pin assignment verified per Infineon datasheet Rev. 2.6.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main power output terminal | Connected to heatsink tab; carries full load current and withstands 1200V blocking |
| Gate (G) | Control input | High-impedance MOS-driven terminal requiring ≤±20V; 22nC total charge dictates driver sizing |
| Emiter (E) | Power return and reference | Common node for IGBT emitter and anti-parallel diode cathode; defines ground-referenced control loop |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Emitter-Controlled HE Diode | Soft, fast recovery (trr = 42ns) minimizes voltage spikes and EMI in hard- and soft-switching topologies |
| Temperature-Stable Switching | Eoff increases only 73% from 25°C to 150°C (0.15 → 0.26mJ), enabling predictable thermal design |
| Parallel-Switching Capability | Tight parameter distribution (VGE(th), Eoff, VCE(sat)) allows direct paralleling without current-sharing resistors |
| ZVS-Optimized Eoff | 0.05mJ Eoff under ZVT conditions (Cr = 4nF) confirms suitability for zero-voltage transition circuits |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKP03N120H2 | Same die, PG-TO-220-3-1 package; RthJC = 3.2K/W (diode), higher thermal resistance | Limited to lower-power (<1.5kW) or forced-air-cooled designs due to reduced thermal performance | Select when board space constraints prohibit TO-247 and power level permits higher case temperature rise |
| IKW10N120CS6 | 1200V/10A, 650V-class gate drive (±20V), 0.29mJ Eoff @25°C, co-packaged diode | Higher current rating suits 5–10kW ZVS inverters but requires larger gate drive and heatsinking | Choose for scalable designs needing headroom beyond 3A or where future power-upgrades are planned |
Compared with IKP03N120H2 and IKW10N120CS6, IKW03N120H2FKSA1 offers the optimal balance of low Eoff, TO-247 thermal performance, and compact 3A rating-ideal for cost- and size-sensitive 2–4kW resonant converters where thermal margin and switching loss are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG = 82Ω for characterization at 3A/800V. For safe operation, RG must limit peak gate current below 2A and ensure td(off) ≤340ns at 150°C. Typical design range is 47–100Ω; values below 33Ω risk shoot-through in bridge configurations without added desaturation protection.
Is the anti-parallel diode suitable for freewheeling in hard-switched PFC stages?
No-the HE diode is optimized for soft recovery in resonant circuits, not hard-commutated PFC. Its Qrr (0.23µC @25°C) and di/dt capability (993A/µs) are insufficient for 30–100kHz boost PFC; discrete ultrafast diodes with lower Qrr are recommended for that application.
Does IKW03N120H2FKSA1 support paralleling without external emitter resistors?
Yes-Infineon confirms parallel operation without emitter resistors due to tight VGE(th) (2.1–3.9V) and Eoff distribution. Layout symmetry and matched gate drive paths are mandatory; derating to 2.5A per device is advised for >2-device arrays above 100°C case temperature.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation at 100°C case temperature?
At TC = 100°C, the maximum DC collector current is 3.9A (per Fig.4), and the pulsed SOA limits IC to 9.9A for tp ≤10µs (per max ratings table). Operation above 3.9A DC requires active cooling or derating to maintain Tj ≤150°C given RthJC = 2.0K/W.
