Product details

Overview

IRG4IBC30S from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600 V, 23.5 A continuous collector current N-channel insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) in TO-220 Full-Pak package, featuring 1.4 V typical V_CE(on) at 15 V gate drive and 18 A, optimized for low-frequency switching (<1 kHz) in industrial motor drives and UPS inverters.

For engineers reviewing the IRG4IBC30S datasheet, IRG4IBC30S pinout, IRG4IBC30S application, or IRG4IBC30S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V V_CES, 1.4 V V_CE(on) at rated current, 50 nC total gate charge, 2.8 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and clamped inductive load capability up to 47 A - all critical for hard-switched, high-current DC-AC conversion stages.

Technical Context

This Generation 4 IGBT employs a trench-gate field-stop structure enabling tighter parameter distribution and higher efficiency than prior generations. Its design prioritizes low saturation voltage and robust ruggedness under clamped inductive loads, with 10 mJ reverse avalanche energy rating and SOA validated up to 480 V and 36 A at 150 °C junction temperature.

Switching behavior is characterized by 22 ns turn-on delay and 540–810 ns turn-off delay at 25 °C, with total switching losses of 3.71 mJ (25 °C) rising to 6.55 mJ at 150 °C - reflecting strong thermal stability for sustained operation in convection-cooled industrial enclosures.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CES	600 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 480 V with 20% margin in industrial AC-DC/DC-AC systems
I_C @ T_C = 25 °C	23.5 A - Supports continuous output current in 1–2 kW motor drive half-bridges without forced cooling
V_CE(on) typ.	1.4 V @ V_GE = 15 V, I_C = 18 A - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss per device at rated load, reducing heatsink requirements
Q_g	50 nC - Dictates gate driver power demand and influences switching speed control via external R_G
R_θJC	2.8 °C/W - Allows direct mounting to aluminum heatsinks with predictable thermal rise under 18 W dissipation
E_ARV	10 mJ - Provides single-pulse avalanche ruggedness during short-circuit events in unclamped inductive fault conditions
f_max (hard-switched)	<1 kHz - Optimized for line-frequency and low-speed PWM applications, not high-frequency SMPS

Pinout & Package

IRG4IBC30S is housed in an industry-standard TO-220 Full-Pak package with insulated tab, enabling direct heatsink mounting without isolation hardware. The package features three terminals: Collector (tab), Emitter (pin 1), and Gate (pin 2).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (Tab)	High-side power output node	Electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from heatsink unless system ground reference permits
Emitter (Pin 1)	Power return path and gate reference	Serves as common reference for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance layout critical for noise immunity
Gate (Pin 2)	Control input for channel modulation	Requires ≤±20 V drive; 7.3 nC Q_ge dictates minimum gate resistor value to limit dV/dt-induced turn-on

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Generation 4 trench-gate field-stop architecture	Delivers 15% lower V_CE(on) and 20% tighter parameter spread vs. Gen 3 equivalents, improving BOM consistency in volume production
Clamped inductive load rating	47 A peak current capability under L-load conditions enables reliable operation in motor freewheeling and regenerative braking
Lead-free TO-220 Full-Pak	RoHS-compliant construction with insulated tab eliminates need for mica washers or silicone pads in heatsink assembly
150 °C maximum junction temperature	Supports operation in sealed industrial enclosures with ambient temperatures up to 70 °C and limited airflow
Low internal emitter inductance	7.5 nH - Reduces voltage overshoot during turn-off, easing snubber design in 400–600 V DC bus topologies

Applications

Industrial Motor Drives

Uninterruptible Power Supplies

Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter stage converting 400 V DC bus to variable-frequency AC for 1.5 kW induction motors.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in low-side leg; operates at 1–500 Hz with 50% duty cycle and 15 V gate drive.

Use Value: 1.4 V V_CE(on) limits conduction loss to <26 W per phase at full load, enabling passive cooling in DIN-rail mounted VFDs.

Use Scenario: Bidirectional DC-AC inverter in online double-conversion UPS delivering clean 230 V / 50 Hz output during grid failure.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current switching element in H-bridge output stage; handles 20 ms overload transients up to 200% rated current.

Use Value: 10 mJ avalanche energy rating ensures safe shutdown during battery overvoltage faults without external crowbar circuitry.

Solar Microinverters

Welding Power Supplies

Use Scenario: DC-AC stage in single-phase transformerless microinverter interfacing 30–60 V PV strings to 230 V grid.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-frequency (50/60 Hz) switching device in H-bridge; conducts sinusoidal current with zero-crossing commutation.

Use Value: 600 V V_CES provides sufficient margin against reflected grid transients and PV open-circuit voltage spikes up to 550 V.

Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in resonant DC-DC converter supplying 30–100 A DC welding current from rectified 400 V AC mains.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched main switch operating at 1–20 kHz with high peak current pulses and 47 A clamped inductive load capability.

Use Value: 47 A I_LM rating supports repetitive 10 ms arc initiation surges without derating, extending IGBT lifetime in arc-strike cycles.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IRG4PH40UD	600 V, 40 A I_C, 2.2 V V_CE(on), TO-247 package, higher Q_g (95 nC)	Higher current handling but larger footprint and greater gate drive demand	Select when >25 A continuous output or forced-air cooling is available
FGA25N120ANTD	1200 V, 25 A, 2.1 V V_CE(on), TO-3P package, slower switching (E_off = 5.2 mJ)	Higher voltage rating suited for 600–800 V DC bus systems, not drop-in compatible	Select only when system requires 1200 V blocking capability and can accommodate higher conduction loss

Compared with IRG4PH40UD and FGA25N120ANTD, IRG4IBC30S offers the lowest conduction loss (1.4 V) and smallest thermal resistance (2.8 °C/W) in TO-220 form factor, making it optimal for space-constrained, convection-cooled 1–2 kW industrial inverters where gate drive simplicity and thermal predictability are prioritized over peak current or ultra-high voltage capability.

FAQ

Is IRG4IBC30S RoHS-compliant and lead-free?

Yes, IRG4IBC30S is lead-free and RoHS-compliant, indicated by the "PbF" suffix in its full part number (IRG4IBC30SPbF). The TO-220 Full-Pak package uses matte tin-plated leads and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile requirements for lead-free assembly.

What is the recommended gate resistor value for standard operation?

A 23 Ω gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for switching tests at 25 °C and 150 °C. This value balances turn-on speed, dV/dt control, and EMI suppression; values below 15 Ω risk shoot-through in half-bridge configurations due to Miller-induced turn-on.

Can IRG4IBC30S replace older IRG4BC20U devices in existing designs?

Yes - IRG4IBC30S is designed as a direct drop-in replacement for Generation 3 IR IGBTs like IRG4BC20U, sharing identical TO-220 Full-Pak pinout, voltage rating, and gate drive requirements while offering lower V_CE(on) and improved thermal performance.

Does this IGBT include an integrated anti-parallel diode?

No, IRG4IBC30S is a discrete IGBT without an integrated freewheeling diode. External ultrafast diodes (e.g., ISL9R3060P2) must be used in inverter legs to handle reactive current during commutation and regeneration.
