Product details
Overview
IRG4BC30F-S from Infineon Technologies is a 600V, 31A, 100W N-channel IGBT in D2PAK package, designed for high-efficiency motor drives and switch-mode power supplies. It features low saturation voltage (VCE(sat) = 2.0V @ IC = 31A), fast switching (tf = 50ns), and integrated anti-parallel FRD with soft recovery (trr = 120ns). Used in industrial inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4BC30F-S datasheet, IRG4BC30F-S pinout, IRG4BC30F-S application, or IRG4BC30F-S equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat), switching speed, FRD reverse recovery behavior, thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.55°C/W), and gate charge (QG = 95nC) for drive circuit design.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs trench-gate field-stop technology to achieve low conduction loss and controlled turn-off characteristics. Its co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery diode enables reduced EMI and snubber stress in hard-switched topologies.
The device operates with a gate-emitter threshold voltage (VGE(th)) of 5.0V and supports ±20V gate drive. Its short-circuit withstand time is 10µs at 15V VGE, enabling robust protection in fault conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 600V - supports 400V DC bus applications with 50% safety margin |
| IC continuous | 31A @ TC = 100°C - defines maximum sustained current under heatsink-limited thermal condition |
| VCE(sat) | 2.0V @ IC = 31A, VGE = 15V - determines conduction loss and junction temperature rise |
| tf | 50ns @ IC = 31A, RG = 22Ω - sets minimum achievable switching period and EMI profile |
| QG | 95nC - dictates gate driver peak current requirement (≥2A for 50ns rise time) |
| RthJC | 0.55°C/W - enables thermal design with standard D2PAK mounting on 2oz copper + heatsink |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with 3 terminals: Gate (G), Collector (C), Emitter (E). Standard pin assignment: Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Collector, Pin 3 = Emitter (tab-connected).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives voltage-controlled signal to modulate collector-emitter current; requires 15V nominal drive for full enhancement |
| Collector (C) | High-side power terminal | Connected to positive DC bus; carries main load current into device; electrically tied to metal tab |
| Emitter (E) | Low-side power return | Serves as current return path and reference for gate drive; isolated from tab in D2PAK variant |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Trench Field-Stop IGBT structure | Enables simultaneous optimization of VCE(sat) and switching speed without trade-off degradation |
| Ultrafast soft-recovery FRD | Reduces voltage overshoot and ringing during diode commutation, lowering snubber losses |
| 10µs short-circuit rating | Allows time for external protection circuitry (e.g., DESAT detection) to respond before thermal failure |
| Low gate charge (95nC) | Permits use of cost-effective gate drivers while maintaining <100ns switching transitions |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGW30V60DF | VCE(sat) = 1.8V (lower), tf = 75ns (slower), RthJC = 0.65°C/W (higher) | Better conduction efficiency but higher switching loss at >15kHz | Prefer for lower-frequency (<10kHz), high-current motor drives where thermal margin is constrained |
| IXGH30N60B3 | No integrated diode, QG = 110nC, tf = 45ns | Requires external diode selection and layout; tighter gate drive timing control needed | Choose when discrete diode optimization (e.g., SiC Schottky) is required for specific EMI or recovery targets |
Compared with STGW30V60DF and IXGH30N60B3, IRG4BC30F-S delivers balanced conduction/switching performance with integrated FRD convenience-ideal for cost-sensitive, medium-frequency industrial inverters where layout simplicity and thermal predictability are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-emitter voltage for IRG4BC30F-S?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20V. For reliable operation, gate drive should be limited to +15V for turn-on and –5V to –10V for turn-off. Exceeding +15V increases risk of gate oxide degradation over time, while insufficient negative bias may cause unintended turn-on due to Miller capacitance coupling during high dv/dt events.
Does IRG4BC30F-S require a negative gate voltage for safe operation?
A negative gate voltage (–5V to –10V) is strongly recommended during off-state to prevent spurious turn-on caused by high dv/dt across the Miller capacitance. While the device can operate with 0V gate bias in low-dv/dt applications, industrial inverters typically mandate active pull-down to ensure robustness against parasitic coupling in dense PCB layouts.
Can IRG4BC30F-S be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with careful attention to gate loop inductance matching, emitter degeneration resistors (0.1–0.22Ω), and symmetrical thermal mounting. The device's positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient enables current sharing, but mismatched gate drive or thermal gradients can lead to current imbalance exceeding 20% at full load without mitigation.
What is the role of the integrated diode in IRG4BC30F-S?
The integrated ultrafast soft-recovery diode serves as the freewheeling path for inductive loads in bridge configurations. Its 120ns reverse recovery time and soft recovery characteristic minimize voltage overshoot and oscillation during commutation, reducing stress on the IGBT and associated snubber components compared to standard fast recovery diodes.
