Product details
Overview
IRG4BC30KDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600V, 15A n-channel IGBT in TO-220AB package with 1.8V typical VGE(th), 3.7Ω typical RCE(sat) at TJ = 25°C, and 160ns typical tfall; designed for hard-switched motor control inverters and UPS systems requiring robust short-circuit withstand capability.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4BC30KDPBF datasheet, IRG4BC30KDPBF pinout, IRG4BC30KDPBF application, or IRG4BC30KDPBF equivalent, this device supports 16A DC collector current at TC = 100°C, delivers 2.4mJ total switching loss at VCC = 480V/IC = 16A/RG = 1Ω, and features integrated fast-recovery anti-parallel diode with Qrr = 120nC at IF = 12A/VR = 200V/TJ = 125°C.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a punch-through (PT) structure with field-stop layer and optimized carrier lifetime control to balance conduction loss and switching speed. Its gate threshold voltage of 1.8V enables direct drive from standard 15V logic-level controllers without level-shifting.
The integrated diode exhibits soft recovery with peak reverse recovery di/dt ≤ 1000 A/µs at IF = 12A, reducing EMI in bridge-leg configurations. Thermal resistance RthJC is 1.0°C/W, supporting 60W continuous power dissipation at TC = 100°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche breakdown under open-gate condition |
| IC (DC) | 15A - continuous collector current rating at TC = 100°C, defining thermal design margin |
| RCE(sat) | 3.7Ω - on-state voltage drop determines conduction loss: VCE(sat) ≈ 1.9V @ IC = 15A |
| tfall | 160ns - fall time at VCC = 480V/IC = 16A/RG = 1Ω, directly impacts switching loss and EMI |
| Qg | 72nC - total gate charge required for full turn-on, sets minimum gate driver current requirement |
| Eoff | 2.4mJ - turn-off energy at VCC = 480V/IC = 16A/RG = 1Ω, critical for snubber and thermal sizing |
| TJ(max) | 150°C - maximum junction temperature, constrains heatsink selection and derating curves |
Pinout & Package
IRG4BC30KDPBF uses the industry-standard TO-220AB package with insulated tab, featuring three terminals: Collector (pin 1), Gate (pin 2), and Emitter (pin 3). The tab is electrically connected to the collector and thermally coupled to the die for efficient heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (Tab) | Main high-side power terminal | Electrically tied to metal tab; requires isolation from heatsink unless system ground reference permits |
| Gate | Control input for MOS-controlled bipolar conduction | High-impedance input requiring ≥15V drive for full saturation; sensitive to noise coupling |
| Emitter | Power return and signal reference node | Serves as common reference for gate drive and current sensing; layout must minimize inductance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Short-circuit withstand time | 10µs at VCC = 480V/TJ = 150°C - enables reliable protection in fault conditions without desaturation circuitry |
| Integrated anti-parallel diode | Soft-recovery Qrr = 120nC - reduces voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling in half-bridge topologies |
| Low gate charge | Qg = 72nC - allows use of low-power gate drivers (e.g., IR2110) without external buffer stages |
| Thermal resistance | RthJC = 1.0°C/W - supports compact heatsink designs for 60W continuous operation at TC = 100°C |
| Positive VGE(th) tempco | +1.2mV/°C - improves current sharing stability in parallel IGBT configurations |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter stage in 1–3kW AC induction motor drives operating at 4kHz PWM frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching element in each leg of the inverter bridge, handling bidirectional current flow via integrated diode during dead-time. Use Value: 3.7Ω RCE(sat) limits conduction loss to <1.2W per device at 15A, while 160ns tfall keeps switching loss below 1.5W at 4kHz. | Use Scenario: Output inverter stage in line-interactive UPS delivering 2kVA with sine-wave output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in full-bridge topology converting DC bus (400V) to 230VAC output with active power factor correction. Use Value: 10µs short-circuit rating allows safe shutdown during output short events; integrated diode eliminates need for discrete freewheeling diodes. |
| Solar Microinverters | Induction Heating Systems |
Use Scenario: DC–AC conversion stage in single-phase 300W microinverter interfacing PV panel to grid. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in H-bridge configuration, commutating at 16–20kHz with zero-voltage switching assistance. Use Value: Soft-recovery diode (Qrr = 120nC) minimizes turn-on losses during ZVS transitions, improving efficiency by ~1.2% over discrete diode solutions. | Use Scenario: Resonant inverter stage in 5kW domestic induction cooktop operating at 20–50kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-bridge switch driving series-resonant tank, conducting high di/dt currents with minimal voltage overshoot. Use Value: Peak reverse recovery di/dt ≤ 1000 A/µs prevents destructive voltage spikes across resonant capacitor, eliminating need for RC snubbers. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRG4PH40KD | Higher VCES = 1200V, lower IC = 10A, RCE(sat) = 4.2Ω, tfall = 220ns | Better suited for 600–1000V DC link applications; higher conduction loss at same current | Select when system DC bus exceeds 600V or higher voltage margin is required |
| FGA25N120ANTD | 1200V rating, 25A IC, RCE(sat) = 2.8Ω, no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; higher current capacity but larger footprint (TO-3P) | Choose for higher power density needs where discrete diode integration is acceptable |
Compared with IRG4BC30KDPBF, IRG4PH40KD trades off switching speed and conduction loss for higher voltage capability, while FGA25N120ANTD offers greater current handling and lower RCE(sat) but demands additional diode components and board space.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRG4BC30KDPBF?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20V per the official Infineon datasheet. Operation above +15V or below –5V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15V for saturation and –5V to –10V for reliable turn-off, especially under high dv/dt conditions.
Does IRG4BC30KDPBF require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No, it operates reliably with 0V gate turn-off in most applications. However, applying –5V to –10V improves immunity to Miller-induced false turn-on in high-speed, high-dv/dt bridge configurations, particularly when paralleling multiple devices or operating near maximum ratings.
Can IRG4BC30KDPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, its positive VGE(th) temperature coefficient (+1.2mV/°C) promotes natural current sharing. Successful parallel operation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and individual gate resistors (typically 5–10Ω) to damp oscillations and ensure simultaneous switching.
What is the short-circuit withstand capability of IRG4BC30KDPBF?
It sustains rated current for 10µs at VCC = 480V and TJ = 150°C before failure. This enables implementation of simple overcurrent protection using fixed-time blanking (e.g., 8µs) followed by desaturation detection, without requiring complex active current limiting circuits.
