Product details
Overview
IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650V, 30A low-VCE(sat) TRENCHSTOP™ 5 IGBT copacked with a RAPID 2 fast/soft antiparallel diode in a PG-TO247-3 package. It delivers 1.05V VCE(sat) at 30A/25°C, 175°C max junction temperature, 168 nC gate charge, and 59 ns turn-on delay-optimized for high-efficiency industrial power conversion stages in solar inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 datasheet, IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 pinout, IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 application, or IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include conduction-loss vs. switching-loss tradeoff at 150°C, diode reverse recovery charge (0.65 µC @ 150°C), thermal resistance (Rth(j-c) = 0.66 K/W), and JEDEC-qualified reliability for industrial power control.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs TRENCHSTOP™ 5 trench-gate field-stop structure with optimized carrier lifetime control to achieve best-in-class conduction–switching loss balance. Its integrated RAPID 2 diode features soft reverse recovery (trr = 58 ns, Qrr = 0.65 µC @ 150°C) and low peak reverse recovery current (Irrm = 24 A).
The device operates with ±20 V DC and ±30 V transient gate-emitter voltage ratings, supports 120 A pulsed collector current, and maintains stable VCE(sat) across –40°C to +175°C junction range-enabling robust operation in thermally demanding inverter half-bridges and motor drives.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in single-phase and three-phase inverter topologies. |
| IC | 30 A continuous - Rated collector current at TC = 25°C; derates to 62 A at TC = 100°C per thermal limits. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.05 V @ 30 A, 25°C - Enables <1.1 W conduction loss per device at rated current, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| QG | 168 nC - Low gate charge allows efficient driving with standard gate drivers (e.g., 1ED020I12FA) without excessive Miller effect. |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.66 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct mounting on heatsinks with predictable thermal margin. |
| td(off) | 283 ns @ 25°C - Turn-off delay time defines minimum dead-time setting in complementary switching to prevent shoot-through. |
| Eoff | 1.35 mJ @ 25°C - Total turn-off energy determines snubber sizing and switching loss contribution at 16 kHz PWM frequency. |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO247-3 package: isolated metal tab (collector), 3-pin through-hole outline with 2.54 mm lead pitch; screw-mount compatible (M3, 0.6 Nm torque); not recommended for surface mount.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (left) | Collector (C) | Main high-side current path; electrically connected to metal tab-requires isolation from heatsink unless system ground referenced. |
| Pin 2 (center) | Gate (G) | Control input; sensitive to ESD and dv/dt coupling-requires low-inductance gate loop and RC snubber if needed. |
| Pin 3 (right) | Emitter (E) | Power return path for IGBT and diode; serves as reference for gate drive; must be low-impedance to minimize common-source inductance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low VCE(sat) L5 technology | 1.05 V at 30 A/25°C reduces conduction losses by ~25% vs. prior TRENCHSTOP™ 4 generation under identical conditions. |
| RAPID 2 antiparallel diode | Soft reverse recovery (dirr/dt = –4970 A/µs @ 150°C) minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling in inductive loads. |
| JEDEC qualification | Validated for industrial power applications per JESD47 stress testing-ensures long-term reliability in 24/7 operation. |
| 175°C maximum junction temperature | Enables higher power density designs and extended thermal headroom in compact enclosures without forced air cooling. |
| Pb-free and RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC/JEDEC J-STD-609B Class 3 moisture sensitivity level (MSL 1). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT + diode DuoPack applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKW25N65ES5XKSA1 | 25 A rated current, 1.15 V VCE(sat), 135 nC QG, same 650 V/175°C rating | Lower conduction loss at ≤20 A; reduced switching loss due to lower QG; less suitable for 30 A continuous duty | Select when system peak current stays below 25 A and gate drive strength is limited. |
| IKW40N65ES5XKSA1 | 40 A rated current, 1.10 V VCE(sat), 215 nC QG, same package and voltage rating | Higher current headroom and thermal margin; increased switching loss due to higher QG; requires stronger gate driver | Select when future-proofing for 35–40 A design margin or operating at elevated ambient temperatures (>60°C). |
Compared with IKW25N65ES5XKSA1 and IKW40N65ES5XKSA1, IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 offers optimal balance of conduction loss, switching loss, and thermal capability for 30 A nominal industrial inverter legs-avoiding overdesign penalty while maintaining sufficient margin for transient overloads.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for continuous operation?
The IKW30N65NL5XKSA1 has a continuous gate-emitter voltage rating of ±20 V. Exceeding this value risks permanent gate oxide damage. Transient spikes up to ±30 V are allowed only for durations ≤10 µs and duty cycle <1%, per datasheet Section 4 (Maximum Ratings). Gate driver circuits must include clamping (e.g., Zener diodes) to enforce this limit under fault conditions.
How does the integrated RAPID 2 diode improve system-level EMI performance?
The RAPID 2 diode exhibits soft reverse recovery with controlled dirr/dt (–4970 A/µs max at 150°C), minimizing high-frequency ringing and voltage overshoot during turn-off. This directly reduces conducted and radiated EMI, easing compliance with EN 55011 Class A/B and lowering filter component cost in inverter output stages.
Can this IGBT be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (1.04 V @ 150°C vs. 1.05 V @ 25°C) enables inherent current sharing. Successful paralleling requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical layout, and thermal coupling. Infineon Application Note AN2015-05 provides layout guidelines and gate resistor recommendations for 2–4 device paralleling.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 16 kHz operation with 1ED020I12FA driver?
For 16 kHz PWM with 1ED020I12FA, Infineon recommends RG(on) = 23 Ω and RG(off) = 10 Ω (per datasheet test condition). This balances switching speed (td(off) = 283 ns) and voltage overshoot (<10% of VCE). Lower RG increases Eoff and dv/dt stress; higher values increase switching losses and thermal stress.
