Product details
Overview
IKW60N60H3FKSA1 from Infineon is a 600 V, 60 A high-speed IGBT in Trench and Fieldstop technology with integrated soft-recovery anti-parallel diode, rated for 175 °C junction operation, 1.85 V VCE(sat) at 60 A/25 °C, and 3.23 mJ total switching energy at 25 °C - deployed in welding converters and UPS inverters requiring fast, low-loss switching.
For engineers reviewing the IKW60N60H3FKSA1 datasheet, IKW60N60H3FKSA1 pinout, IKW60N60H3FKSA1 application, or IKW60N60H3FKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include turn-off energy (1.13 mJ), diode reverse recovery time (143 ns), short-circuit withstand time (5 µs), thermal resistance RthJC (0.36 K/W), and PG-TO247-3 package compatibility.
Technical Context
This third-generation High Speed Switching Series IGBT uses TRENCHSTOP™ architecture to minimize tail current and EMI while maintaining low conduction loss. Its monolithic DuoPack integration pairs the IGBT with a soft, fast-recovery diode sharing the same die substrate and thermal path.
The device operates with gate-emitter threshold voltage of 4.1–5.7 V and exhibits strong temperature stability: VCE(sat) rises only to 2.25 V at 175 °C, and diode forward voltage remains ≤2.00 V under same conditions - enabling robust performance across industrial ambient ranges.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 600 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 400 V in hard-switched converters with margin for transients. |
| IC cont @ TC=115°C | 60 A - continuous collector current rating usable in forced-air-cooled industrial enclosures. |
| VCE(sat) @ 60 A, 25°C | 1.85 V - enables <111 W conduction loss at full load, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| Eoff @ 400 V, 60 A | 1.13 mJ - low turn-off energy permits >20 kHz switching in welding inverters without excessive loss. |
| trr (diode) | 143 ns - soft recovery minimizes voltage overshoot and snubber stress in bidirectional topologies. |
| RthJC | 0.36 K/W - allows direct mounting to heatsinks for efficient thermal management in compact power stages. |
| tsc withstand | 5 µs @ 150°C - supports reliable overcurrent protection in motor drives and UPS systems. |
Pinout & Package
IKW60N60H3FKSA1 is housed in a PG-TO247-3 package with isolated mounting screw hole and backside collector terminal. The package provides low-inductance layout, 0.36 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and RoHS-compliant, halogen-free molding compound.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control input requiring ±20 V rating; 375 nC total gate charge dictates driver strength requirement. |
| Pin 2 & Backside | Collector | Main high-side power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for low-inductance, high-current return path. |
| Pin 3 | Emitter | Power return and reference node; internal emitter inductance is 13 nH - critical for gate loop layout optimization. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT + soft diode DuoPack | Monolithic integration eliminates interconnect inductance and ensures matched thermal behavior between switch and freewheeling path. |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Enables operation in sealed, high-ambient environments (e.g., enclosed UPS cabinets) without derating below 60 A. |
| Low EMI due to controlled fall time (27 ns) | Reduces need for external EMI filters in CE-compliant industrial equipment. |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Validated for industrial power control applications including 1000+ short-circuit events with ≥1 s recovery intervals. |
| Pb-free, halogen-free construction | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IKW40N60H3 | Lower IC rating (40 A), identical VCE, 0.95 mJ Eoff, same package | Optimized for 15–30 kW welders or smaller UPS units where peak current demand is lower | Select when system thermal budget allows reduced conduction loss at partial load and cost reduction is prioritized. |
| FGH60N60SMD | 600 V/60 A, but TO-247-4L package with Kelvin emitter; 1.45 mJ Eoff; higher VCE(sat) (2.0 V) | Designed for ultra-low-inductance gate drive in high-frequency resonant converters (>50 kHz) | Prefer when precise gate control and minimized Miller effect outweigh benefits of integrated diode softness. |
Compared with IKW40N60H3 and FGH60N60SMD, IKW60N60H3FKSA1 uniquely balances high-current capability, low switching loss, and monolithic diode softness - making it optimal for 40–80 kW industrial inverters where thermal density and EMI constraints dominate.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for IKW60N60H3FKSA1?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V DC, with recommended operating range of –10 V to +15 V. Exceeding +15 V increases risk of gate oxide degradation, while negative bias below –10 V may cause unintended turn-on due to Miller coupling during high dv/dt transitions.
Does IKW60N60H3FKSA1 require a negative gate drive voltage?
No - it operates reliably with 0 V to +15 V gate drive, but a –5 V to –8 V negative turn-off bias is recommended to improve noise immunity and prevent spurious conduction in high dv/dt environments such as multi-level inverters or paralleled configurations.
Can IKW60N60H3FKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (increasing from 1.85 V at 25°C to 2.25 V at 175°C) enables natural current sharing. Successful parallel operation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling via shared heatsink to maintain <5°C junction temperature difference.
Is the anti-parallel diode in IKW60N60H3FKSA1 suitable for ZVS or resonant topologies?
Yes - its soft, fast recovery (trr = 143 ns, Qrr = 1.20 µC) and low peak reverse recovery current (IRRM = 13.0 A) minimize voltage overshoot and ringing, making it compatible with LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge topologies operating up to 100 kHz with controlled zero-voltage switching transitions.
