Product details
Overview
IRG4BC20UDSTRLP from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 13 A (TC = 25°C) N-channel IGBT co-packaged with an ultrafast soft-recovery HEXFRED diode in D2Pak (TO-263) package. It delivers VCE(on) = 1.85 V @ 6.5 A/15 V, td(off) = 93 ns, and Qg = 27 nC, optimized for 8–40 kHz hard-switching in motor drives and UPS inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4BC20UDSTRLP datasheet, IRG4BC20UDSTRLP pinout, IRG4BC20UDSTRLP application, or IRG4BC20UDSTRLP equivalent, key selection criteria include clamped inductive current rating (ILM = 52 A), diode reverse recovery time (trr = 37–55 ns), thermal resistance (RθJC = 2.1 °C/W), and gate charge profile for snubberless bridge operation.
Technical Context
This Generation 4 IGBT integrates a monolithic ultrafast soft-recovery diode to minimize reverse recovery losses and eliminate external snubbers in half-bridge configurations. Its optimized charge distribution (Qge = 4.5 nC, Qgc = 10 nC) enables precise turn-on/turn-off timing control under 50 Ω gate drive.
The device operates across –55°C to +150°C junction range with tight parameter distribution, supporting high-efficiency switching in resonant topologies (>200 kHz) and hard-switched PFC stages. Diode recovery characteristics (Irr = 3.5–5.0 A, Qrr = 65–138 nC) are characterized at both 25°C and 125°C for thermal-aware design validation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche; defines DC bus rating in 400 VAC input systems. |
| IC @ TC = 25°C | 13 A - Continuous collector current at case temperature 25°C; sets baseline conduction capability. |
| VCE(on) | 1.85 V @ 6.5 A/15 V - Low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in motor drive output stages. |
| td(off) | 93 ns - Turn-off delay time at TJ = 25°C; critical for dead-time calculation in synchronous rectification. |
| RθJC | 2.1 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; determines heatsink sizing for 24 W dissipation at TC = 100°C. |
| trr | 37–55 ns - Diode reverse recovery time at TJ = 25°C; enables snubberless operation in bridge legs. |
| Qg | 27 nC - Total gate charge; defines driver power requirement and switching speed trade-off. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in industry-standard D2Pak (TO-263) surface-mount package with isolated tab, rated for 300°C soldering (10 sec, 1.6 mm from case). Thermal pad requires direct heatsink contact for RθJC = 2.1 °C/W performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side current path | Connected to DC bus positive; carries full load current and withstands 600 V transients. |
| Gate (G) | Control terminal for IGBT channel | Requires ±20 V absolute max drive; 27 nC total charge dictates gate driver peak current ≥1.5 A. |
| Emitter (E) | Common reference for IGBT and diode | Serves as return path for both IGBT collector current and anti-parallel diode forward current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft-recovery co-packaged diode | Reduces Erec by >40% vs. standard FRD; eliminates need for RC snubbers in H-bridge outputs. |
| Generation 4 IGBT die | Tighter VCE(on) distribution (±0.25 V) improves parallel device current sharing in multi-phase inverters. |
| Optimized for 8–40 kHz hard switching | Enables <1.5 µs total switching time (td(on) + tr + td(off) + tf) at 480 V bus with 50 Ω gate resistor. |
| Low internal emitter inductance | LE = 7.5 nH - Minimizes voltage overshoot during di/dt = 200 A/µs turn-off events. |
Applications
| Motor Drive Inverter Stage | Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Output Stage |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter driving 1–3 kW induction motors in HVAC compressors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in leg configuration; handles 6.5 A RMS fundamental current at 12 kHz PWM.

Use Scenario: Resonant half-bridge operating at 250 kHz for 2–5 kW induction cooktops. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zero-voltage switching (ZVS) switch; leverages soft diode recovery to maintain ZVS boundary. Use Value: trr = 37 ns and Qrr = 65 nC ensure minimal recovery energy (<0.05 mJ), preserving ZVS efficiency above 200 kHz. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT + anti-parallel diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRG4PH20KD-SPBF | Higher VCES = 1200 V; higher Qg = 42 nC; same D2Pak package | Targeted for 600–800 VDC industrial drives; less efficient at 400 V bus due to higher VCE(on) | Select when system DC bus exceeds 650 V or when legacy 1200 V design reuse is required. |
| FGA25N120ANTD | 1200 V rating; lower IC = 25 A @ 25°C; TO-247 package; no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; higher thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.55 °C/W) but higher current capacity | Choose for higher-power designs needing discrete diode optimization or forced-air cooling. |
Compared with IRG4PH20KD-SPBF and FGA25N120ANTD, IRG4BC20UDSTRLP provides optimal balance of 600 V blocking, low gate charge, and integrated soft diode-making it preferred for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 400 VAC-input inverters where snubber elimination is critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate drive voltage for IRG4BC20UDSTRLP?
The absolute maximum gate-to-emitter voltage is ±20 V. Operation above +15 V or below –10 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended drive is +15 V for turn-on and –5 V to –10 V for turn-off to ensure robust noise immunity and fast fall time.
Can IRG4BC20UDSTRLP be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its Generation 4 die exhibits tight VCE(on) distribution (±0.25 V) and positive temperature coefficient, enabling stable current sharing. Use matched gate resistors (≤5 % tolerance) and symmetrical PCB layout with Kelvin emitter connections for reliable paralleling.
Is the integrated diode suitable for freewheeling in boost PFC circuits?
No-the HEXFRED diode is optimized for anti-parallel use in bridge legs, not unidirectional boost operation. Its Qrr and trr are specified under clamped inductive conditions, not continuous forward conduction; a dedicated PFC diode is recommended.
What is the recommended minimum heatsink thermal resistance for 13 A continuous operation?
At TC = 100°C and PD = 24 W, with RθJC = 2.1 °C/W, the heatsink must provide ≤1.0 °C/W RθSA (sink-to-ambient) to maintain TJ ≤150°C in still air. Forced airflow reduces required RθSA to ~2.5 °C/W at 200 LFM.
