Product details
Overview
IRG4BC30S-S from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600 V, 34 A standard-speed insulated gate bipolar transistor in D2Pak package, optimized for low-saturation-voltage operation at frequencies below 1 kHz. It delivers VCE(on) = 1.4 V @ 15 VGE, 18 A and supports clamped inductive load current up to 68 A, making it suitable for industrial motor drives and UPS inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4BC30S-S datasheet, IRG4BC30S-S pinout, IRG4BC30S-S application, or IRG4BC30S-S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.2 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 68 A pulsed collector rating, tight parameter distribution from Generation 4 IGBT design, and validated performance under 480 V DC bus conditions with 23 Ω gate resistance.
Technical Context
The IRG4BC30S-S employs a trench-gate field-stop IGBT structure with integrated anti-parallel diode, enabling low conduction loss while maintaining robust short-circuit withstand capability (tsc ≥ 10 µs @ 125 °C). Its gate threshold voltage (3.0–6.0 V) and negative temperature coefficient of VGE(th) (−11 mV/°C) support stable parallel operation across temperature.
Switching behavior is characterized by turn-off delay (540–810 ns) and fall time (390–590 ns) measured at VCC = 480 V, IC = 18 A, and RG = 23 Ω. Total switching loss is 3.71–5.6 mJ per cycle, with tail-current contribution explicitly included in Eoff (3.45 mJ).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche at TJ = 25 °C, IC = 250 µA |
| IC @ TC = 25 °C | 34 A - continuous collector current limited by thermal dissipation at case temperature 25 °C |
| VCE(on) | 1.4 V typ. @ VGE = 15 V, IC = 18 A - defines conduction loss in hard-switched inverter legs |
| RθJC | 1.2 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance determines heatsink sizing for 100 W max power at 25 °C case |
| Eoff | 3.45 mJ - turn-off energy loss at VCC = 480 V, IC = 18 A, RG = 23 Ω, includes tail current contribution |
| Qg | 50–75 nC - total gate charge dictates driver peak current requirement (≥ 3 A for 25 ns rise time) |
| tf | 390–590 ns - fall time directly impacts switching loss and EMI generation in 1 kHz-class converters |
Pinout & Package
D2Pak (TO-263) surface-mount package with isolated tab (drain-connected), 3-pin configuration, 1.44 g mass, and 0.50 °C/W case-to-sink thermal resistance on greased flat surface.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Gate | Control terminal | Receives 15 V drive signal; requires ≤23 Ω series resistance to limit dV/dt-induced shoot-through risk |
| 2 - Drain | High-side power output | Connected to DC bus (up to 480 V); electrically tied to heatsink via isolated tab |
| 3 - Source | Emitter return path | Serves as reference for gate drive and current sensing; carries full load current and high di/dt |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Generation 4 IGBT architecture | Tight VCE(on) distribution (±5 %) enables reliable paralleling without current-sharing resistors |
| Clamped inductive load rating | 68 A repetitive rating at VCC = 480 V, L = 10 µH, RG = 23 Ω - validates robustness in motor drive freewheeling |
| Integrated emitter inductance | 7.5 nH - limits parasitic oscillation during fast switching but requires careful PCB layout to minimize loop area |
| Reverse transfer capacitance (Cres) | 13 pF - low Miller capacitance reduces gate drive power and improves noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies |

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, TO-247 package; lower Qg (45 nC) but higher VCE(on) (1.6 V) | Requires larger heatsink due to 1.5 °C/W RθJC; better suited for discrete gate driver designs | Select when board space permits TO-247 and lower gate drive power is prioritized over conduction loss |
| FGA25N120ANTD | 1200 V, 25 A, D2Pak; higher blocking voltage but lower IC rating and 2.0 V VCE(on) | Enables 800 V DC bus designs but increases conduction loss by 43 % at 18 A | Select only when system-level voltage derating requires >600 V rating; not drop-in for 480 V bus |
Compared with STGP30NC60WD and FGA25N120ANTD, the IRG4BC30S-S offers the lowest conduction loss (1.4 V) and best thermal interface (1.2 °C/W) in D2Pak format, making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained 400–480 V industrial inverters where switching frequency remains below 1 kHz.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-to-emitter voltage for IRG4BC30S-S?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20 V. Operation beyond this range risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for turn-on and −5 V to −10 V for turn-off to ensure fast, reliable commutation and suppress Miller-induced false triggering. Gate drive circuits must limit transient overshoot using clamping diodes or Zener networks.
Can IRG4BC30S-S be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its Generation 4 design provides tight VCE(on) distribution (±5 %) and negative temperature coefficient of threshold voltage, enabling stable current sharing without external emitter resistors. Parallel operation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and shared heatsink mounting to maintain uniform junction temperature across devices.
What is the short-circuit withstand time for IRG4BC30S-S?
The device supports ≥10 µs short-circuit withstand time at TJ = 125 °C and VCC = 480 V, as verified in Fig. 12 SOA curves. This rating assumes gate drive remains active during fault and requires fast current-limiting protection (e.g., desaturation detection) to disable the IGBT before thermal runaway occurs.
Does IRG4BC30S-S include an integrated freewheeling diode?
No - the IRG4BC30S-S is a standalone IGBT die in D2Pak package without monolithically integrated diode. An external ultrafast recovery diode (e.g., IDP30E65D1) must be placed in anti-parallel configuration across the collector–emitter terminals to handle inductive load current during turn-off.
