Product details
Overview
IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 50 A low-loss IGBT7 Duopack with integrated ultra-soft fast-recovery anti-parallel diode, trench-and-fieldstop IGBT structure, VCE(sat) = 1.65 V (Tvj = 25 °C), tSC = 5 µs at 100 °C, and Tvj(max) = 175 °C - designed for high-efficiency industrial motor drives and solar string inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 datasheet, IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 pinout, IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 application, or IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low turn-off energy (Eoff = 0.85 mJ @ 50 A), soft diode recovery (trr = 93 ns, Qrr = 1.05 µC), and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability.
Technical Context
This IGBT7 Duopack integrates a field-stop trench-gate IGBT and an optimized soft-recovery diode in a single PG-TO247-3 package. Its gate threshold voltage (VGE(th) = 4.3–5.7 V) enables robust noise immunity, while low Cres (31 pF) and high gfs (26 S) support precise switching control under varying junction temperatures up to 175 °C.
The device operates with clamped inductive load conditions (VCC ≤ 400 V, L = 80 µH, RG = 9 Ω), delivering low total switching energy (Ets = 2.05 mJ @ 50 A, 25 °C) and minimal tail current - critical for reducing EMI and thermal stress in servo and UPS applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 650 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 400 V in 3-phase inverters with 1.6× safety margin. |
| IC | 50 A continuous - rated for sustained conduction at Tc = 100 °C, enabling compact heatsink design. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.65 V @ 50 A, 25 °C - reduces conduction loss by ~15% vs. prior-gen IGBTs, improving system efficiency. |
| Eoff | 0.85 mJ @ 50 A, 400 V - lowers switching loss during turn-off, easing thermal management in high-frequency SMPS. |
| trr / Qrr | 93 ns / 1.05 µC @ 50 A - minimizes diode reverse recovery stress and associated voltage overshoot. |
| Tvj(max) | 175 °C - extends operational lifetime in high-ambient industrial environments without derating. |
| Rth(j-c) (IGBT) | 0.55 K/W - enables direct mounting to heatsinks with predictable thermal resistance for power stage modeling. |
Pinout & Package
IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 uses the PG-TO247-3 package with isolated collector tab (backside), standard through-hole mounting, and M3 screw compatibility (max torque 0.6 Nm). Thermal resistance Rth(j-c) = 0.55 K/W (IGBT) and 0.8 K/W (diode) are measured per JEDEC JESD51-14.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| C (pin + backside) | Collector (IGBT) / Cathode (diode) | High-side power node; backside metal provides low-inductance, low-resistance collector connection. |
| E | Emitter (IGBT) / Anode (diode) | Common emitter-anode node; serves as return path for both IGBT and diode currents. |
| G | Gate (IGBT only) | Control terminal for IGBT; no gate connection for integrated diode - fully unidirectional control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low-loss IGBT7 architecture | Trench+fieldstop design achieves 1.65 V VCE(sat) and 0.85 mJ Eoff, reducing total power loss in 16–20 kHz motor drives. |
| Ultra-soft fast-recovery diode | trr = 93 ns, Qrr = 1.05 µC, and low Irrm (21 A) suppress voltage spikes and EMI during commutation. |
| Short-circuit ruggedness | 5 µs withstand time at VCC ≤ 330 V and Tvj = 100 °C - supports reliable protection in servo amplifier fault conditions. |
| JEDEC industrial qualification | Validated per JEDEC47/20/22 for temperature cycling, HAST, and bondwire integrity - ensures long-term reliability in harsh environments. |
| Pb-free & RoHS compliant | Lead plating meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU; compatible with lead-free reflow and wave soldering (260 °C, 10 s). |
Applications
| Servo Drives | Industrial UPS |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-bandwidth position control in CNC machines and robotic arms using 3-phase 20 kHz PWM inverters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: IGBT7 switch and anti-parallel freewheeling diode in half-bridge leg; handles bidirectional reactive current with minimal recovery loss. Use Value: Soft diode recovery (trr = 93 ns) prevents shoot-through risk during dead-time transitions, improving system stability. |
Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS delivering clean 50/60 Hz output from rectified AC or battery DC input. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter-stage switching element in 3-level or 2-level topologies; conducts 50 A RMS with <1.7 V conduction drop. Use Value: 175 °C Tvj(max) allows operation at elevated ambient temperatures without forced cooling, reducing fan count and acoustic noise. |
| Solar String Inverters | Industrial SMPS |
Use Scenario: DC-AC conversion in distributed photovoltaic systems with MPPT tracking and grid synchronization. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in full-bridge or H-bridge inverter stage; switches at 16–25 kHz with low Ets. Use Value: Low total switching energy (Ets = 2.05 mJ) directly improves conversion efficiency above 98.5% at 5 kW scale. |
Use Scenario: Primary-side switching in high-power telecom rectifiers and industrial DC supplies operating at 100–200 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched IGBT in resonant or phase-shifted ZVS topologies; leverages low Cres (31 pF) for reduced gate drive loss. Use Value: Input capacitance (Cies = 3050 pF) enables stable gate drive design with standard 9 Ω resistors, minimizing layout sensitivity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT+diode power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKW40N65ET7 | Lower IC rating (40 A vs. 50 A); identical VCE, VCE(sat), and diode specs; 10% lower Eoff due to smaller die. | Optimized for 3–4 kW servo drives where peak current stays below 40 A; less margin for overload transients. | Select when thermal budget permits smaller conduction rating and system cost sensitivity outweighs headroom needs. |
| IKW50N65ES7 | Same 50 A/650 V rating but uses older IGBT4 technology; VCE(sat) = 1.85 V (25 °C); Eoff = 1.35 mJ - 59% higher than ET7. | Suitable for lower-frequency (<10 kHz) industrial drives where switching loss is secondary to conduction loss. | Choose only if legacy design reuse or qualification continuity is required; avoid for new high-efficiency designs. |
Compared with IKW40N65ET7 and IKW50N65ES7, IKW50N65ET7 delivers optimal balance of conduction margin (50 A), switching efficiency (0.85 mJ Eoff), and diode softness - making it the preferred choice for new 16–25 kHz industrial inverter designs requiring >98% efficiency.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG(on) = RG(off) = 9 Ω for dynamic characterization. For robust operation, Infineon recommends RG between 5 Ω and 15 Ω depending on dV/dt requirements and EMI constraints. Values above 15 Ω increase switching time and energy loss; below 5 Ω may cause gate oscillation or excessive peak current.
Can IKW50N65ET7XKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (increases with Tvj) enables inherent current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched gate drive paths, symmetrical PCB layout, and individual gate resistors. Derating to 80% of rated current per device is advised for thermal margin.
Is the integrated diode suitable for synchronous rectification?
No - the anti-parallel diode is optimized for freewheeling and reverse recovery, not controlled conduction. It lacks a gate terminal and cannot be actively turned on/off. For synchronous rectification, discrete MOSFETs or dedicated SR controllers must be used externally.
What is the meaning of "Duopack" in this part number?
"Duopack" denotes a monolithic integration of one IGBT and one optimized fast-recovery diode in a single TO-247-3 package. Both devices share the same thermal substrate and electrical isolation, eliminating discrete assembly complexity while ensuring matched thermal and dynamic behavior.
