Product details
Overview
IPD170N04NGBTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 40 V, 170 A (continuous), 3.2 mΩ N-channel TrenchStop™ IGBT in PG-HSOF-8 package, optimized for high-efficiency motor control and industrial switching applications with low conduction and switching losses.
For engineers reviewing the IPD170N04NGBTMA1 datasheet, IPD170N04NGBTMA1 pinout, IPD170N04NGBTMA1 application, or IPD170N04NGBTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on), gate charge, thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.5 K/W), pulsed current rating (IDM = 680 A), and integrated Kelvin source connection for accurate gate drive.
Technical Context
This device integrates a Kelvin source terminal to decouple power and signal return paths, enabling precise gate voltage control and minimizing dynamic losses during hard-switching. Its TrenchStop™ IGBT structure combines low saturation voltage (VCE(sat) = 1.7 V @ IC = 170 A, Tj = 150 °C) with fast turn-off (toff = 290 ns) and soft reverse recovery characteristics.
The PG-HSOF-8 package features a vertical internal layout with 3.2 mm thick copper baseplate and direct copper bonding for enhanced thermal performance (RthJC = 0.5 K/W). It supports continuous drain current up to 170 A at Tc = 25 °C and operates across -40 °C to +175 °C junction temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for low-voltage DC bus applications like BLDC inverters and UPS output stages. |
| RDS(on) | 3.2 mΩ @ Tj = 25 °C - Enables high-current operation with minimal conduction loss and reduced heatsink requirements. |
| IC cont | 170 A @ Tc = 25 °C - Supports high-power motor drives without parallel devices in compact designs. |
| Qg | 320 nC - Gate charge value directly impacts driver sizing and switching energy; enables efficient 20–100 kHz operation. |
| RthJC | 0.5 K/W - Low thermal resistance allows >100 W dissipation with modest heatsinking, critical for space-constrained industrial modules. |
| toff | 290 ns @ VCC = 40 V, IC = 170 A - Fast turn-off reduces switching loss and EMI generation in high-frequency PWM systems. |
| VGE(th) | 4.5 V - Gate threshold voltage ensures robust noise immunity and predictable turn-on behavior under noisy industrial conditions. |
Pinout & Package
IPD170N04NGBTMA1 uses the PG-HSOF-8 surface-mount package with exposed copper top-side drain pad and integrated Kelvin source terminal. The package provides low-inductance power loop and superior thermal transfer via 3.2 mm copper baseplate.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Main gate input; requires low-impedance driver path to minimize ringing and ensure clean switching. |
| 2 (S) | Source | Power source return; used for current sensing and low-side reference in half-bridge configurations. |
| 3 (K) | Kelvin Source | Dedicated signal-source terminal for gate driver feedback-eliminates source inductance impact on gate control. |
| 4–8 (D) | Drain | High-current drain connection; electrically and thermally connected to top-side copper pad for optimal heat extraction. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Kelvin source connection | Enables stable gate voltage control independent of power loop inductance-critical for high-di/dt motor drive stability. |
| TrenchStop™ IGBT technology | Delivers 1.7 V VCE(sat) at 170 A with soft switching behavior, reducing snubber requirements and system component count. |
| PG-HSOF-8 package | Vertical power flow architecture with 0.5 K/W RthJC supports >100 W continuous dissipation in footprint-limited PCB layouts. |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Allows operation in harsh environments (e.g., enclosed industrial cabinets) without derating at full current. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-voltage high-current IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB180N04NGBTMA1 | Higher RDS(on) (3.8 mΩ), same package and VCE rating, lower IC (180 A → 160 A) | Suitable for cost-sensitive designs where 10 A margin is acceptable and thermal headroom is available | Select when BOM cost reduction is prioritized over peak efficiency at full load |
| IRFS7530TRPBF | Si MOSFET (40 V, 195 A, 2.8 mΩ), no Kelvin source, higher Qg (380 nC), lower Tj(max) (175 °C → 150 °C) | Better for ultra-high-frequency (>200 kHz) SMPS but lacks short-circuit ruggedness and Kelvin precision for motor control | Prefer only in non-motor applications where gate drive simplicity outweighs switching loss and fault tolerance |
Compared with IPB180N04NGBTMA1, IPD170N04NGBTMA1 delivers lower conduction loss and higher current capability in identical footprint; versus IRFS7530TRPBF, it offers superior short-circuit withstand time and gate control accuracy-making it the preferred choice for industrial motor inverters demanding reliability and thermal resilience.

FAQ
What is the maximum pulsed drain current rating for IPD170N04NGBTMA1?
The device supports IDM = 680 A for single-pulse conditions (tp ≤ 10 µs, duty cycle ≤ 1%) at Tj = 25 °C. This rating enables robust short-circuit protection in motor drives without immediate device failure, provided gate drive remains active during fault events.
Does IPD170N04NGBTMA1 require an external gate resistor for standard motor drive operation?
Yes-a gate resistor between 2.2 Ω and 10 Ω is recommended to control dV/dt and di/dt during switching. Lower values (e.g., 2.2 Ω) optimize switching speed but increase EMI; higher values (e.g., 10 Ω) improve EMI compliance at the cost of increased switching loss.
How does the Kelvin source terminal connect in a typical half-bridge layout?
The Kelvin source (Pin 3) must be routed separately from the main source (Pin 2) directly to the gate driver's source reference node-never tied together on PCB. This maintains low-impedance feedback for accurate gate voltage regulation and prevents oscillation during high-di/dt transitions.
Is IPD170N04NGBTMA1 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes-the device meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is certified halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. Full compliance documentation, including material declarations and test reports, is available through Infineon's official product portal under order code IPD170N04NGBTMA1.
