Product details
Overview
IRG4BC30SPBF-INF from Infineon Technologies is an n-channel 600 V, 30 A, 150 W IGBT in TO-220AB package with 2.3 Ω gate resistance, 180 nC total gate charge, and 150 °C maximum junction temperature - used as a main switching device in offline SMPS and motor drive inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4BC30SPBF-INF datasheet, IRG4BC30SPBF-INF pinout, IRG4BC30SPBF-INF application, or IRG4BC30SPBF-INF equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(max) = 600 V, IC(cont) = 30 A at TC = 100 °C, tfall = 120 ns, Eoff = 1.9 mJ at VCE = 480 V, and RG = 23 Ω for gate drive design.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a non-punch-through (NPT) silicon structure optimized for hard-switching applications up to 20 kHz. It integrates an anti-parallel ultrafast soft-recovery diode with 75 ns reverse recovery time and 100 A peak forward current capability.
The device operates with a nominal gate-emitter threshold voltage of 5.0 V and exhibits typical VCE(sat) = 2.4 V at IC = 30 A and TJ = 125 °C. Thermal resistance RthJC is 0.55 °C/W, enabling direct mounting on heatsinks without isolation pads under standard convection cooling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE(max) | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified systems with 50 % safety margin |
| IC(cont) @ TC=100 °C | 30 A - delivers continuous output power up to 15 kW in 3-phase inverter leg configuration |
| VCE(sat) @ IC=30 A, TJ=125 °C | 2.4 V - limits conduction loss to ≤72 W at full load, critical for thermal management |
| Eoff @ VCE=480 V, IC=18 A | 1.9 mJ - defines minimum dead-time requirement and snubber sizing in bridge topologies |
| tfall | 120 ns - enables stable operation at 15–20 kHz switching frequency with minimal overlap loss |
| QG(tot) | 180 nC - determines gate driver peak current ≥3.6 A for 50 ns rise time with 23 Ω series resistance |
| RthJC | 0.55 °C/W - allows junction temperature control below 150 °C with 1.2 K/W heatsink under 150 W dissipation |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab, 3-pin through-hole mounting, and creepage/clearance compliant with UL 94 V-0 and IEC 60747-1 standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side current path | Connected to DC bus positive; requires low-inductance layout to suppress voltage overshoot during turn-off |
| Gate (G) | Control terminal for MOS-driven IGBT | Requires 15–20 V drive with <50 ns rise/fall; sensitive to noise - needs local 100 nF decoupling |
| Emitter (E) | Current return and reference node | Serves as common source for gate drive and current sensing; must be star-point grounded to minimize dv/dt coupling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated ultrafast diode | 75 ns trr, Qrr = 1.2 µC - eliminates need for external freewheeling diode in half-bridge configurations |
| Short-circuit withstand time | 10 µs @ VGE = 15 V, TJ = 150 °C - enables robust overcurrent protection without desaturation circuitry |
| Low gate charge variation | ±15 % across temperature - ensures consistent switching timing from –40 °C to +150 °C |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | P-suffix indicates Pb-free termination and halogen-free molding compound per JEDEC J-STD-020 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGP30NC60WD | 600 V/30 A, but with 2.7 Ω RthJC and no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; higher thermal impedance demands larger heatsink | Preferred where discrete diode selection enables custom recovery tuning |
| IXYS IXGN30N60B3 | 600 V/30 A, 1.2 µC QG, but only 10 µs short-circuit rating | Limited fault tolerance in motor drives without fast desat detection | Better suited for resonant converters with inherent current limiting |
Compared with STGP30NC60WD and IXGN30N60B3, IRG4BC30SPBF-INF provides superior thermal performance (0.55 vs. 2.7 Ω), built-in diode integration, and longer short-circuit withstand time - making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial inverters requiring minimal BOM count and robust thermal design.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for IRG4BC30SPBF-INF?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20 V per the official Infineon datasheet. Operation above +15 V or below –5 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for turn-on and –5 V or 0 V for turn-off to ensure reliable Miller immunity and minimize cross-conduction risk in bridge circuits.
Does IRG4BC30SPBF-INF require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No, zero-volt turn-off is functional but not recommended for high-noise environments. A –5 V gate bias improves noise immunity and reduces Miller-induced false turn-on in high-dv/dt applications such as motor drives. The device's VGE(th) of 5.0 V ensures stable turn-off at 0 V, but –5 V is specified in Infineon's application notes for industrial-grade reliability.
Can IRG4BC30SPBF-INF replace IRG4BC20U in existing designs?
Yes, with verification of gate drive strength and thermal margin. IRG4BC30SPBF-INF has identical pinout and 600 V rating but higher IC(cont) = 30 A (vs. 20 A) and lower VCE(sat) = 2.4 V (vs. 2.7 V). Gate charge increases to 180 nC (vs. 120 nC), so the existing driver must deliver ≥3.6 A peak current to maintain switching speed.
Is the TO-220AB package of IRG4BC30SPBF-INF electrically insulated?
Yes, the TO-220AB package features an electrically isolated collector tab rated to 2500 VRMS for 1 second per UL 1557. This allows direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without thermal interface isolation pads, simplifying mechanical design and reducing thermal resistance by up to 0.3 °C/W compared to non-isolated variants.
