Product details
Overview
IRG4PC30KD from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600 V, 30 A n-channel IGBT with integrated fast recovery anti-parallel diode in TO-247AC package. It delivers 1.8 V typical VCE(sat) at 15 A and 25 °C, 37 nC total gate charge, and supports 100 kHz switching in motor drives and UPS inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC30KD datasheet, IRG4PC30KD pinout, IRG4PC30KD application, or IRG4PC30KD equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V blocking voltage, 30 A rated collector current, 1.8 V VCE(sat), 37 nC QG, and integrated diode reverse recovery performance under 125 °C junction conditions.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a punch-through (PT) structure optimized for hard-switched industrial inverters. Its gate threshold voltage is 5.0 V (min), and it features a short-circuit withstand time of 10 µs at 15 V VGE and TJ = 125 °C.
The co-packaged diode exhibits 125 ns typical reverse recovery time (trr) at IF = 12 A, VR = 200 V, and TJ = 125 °C, with soft recovery characteristics critical for EMI reduction in variable-frequency drives.
Key Specifications

| IC (TC = 100 °C) | 30 A - Continuous collector current rating at case temperature of 100 °C |
| VCE(sat) @ IC = 15 A | 1.8 V - On-state voltage drop determining conduction loss in inverter legs |
| QG | 37 nC - Total gate charge defining drive strength requirement and switching speed |
| tsc | 10 µs - Short-circuit safe operating time at VGE = 15 V and TJ = 125 °C |
| trr (diode) | 125 ns - Diode reverse recovery time at IF = 12 A, VR = 200 V, TJ = 125 °C |
| Eoff @ IC = 16 A | 2.4 mJ - Turn-off energy loss at VCC = 480 V, VGE = 15 V, RG = 3 Ω |
Pinout & Package
IRG4PC30KD uses the industry-standard TO-247AC package with 3 leads: Collector (tab), Gate, and Emitter. The metal tab is electrically connected to the collector terminal and serves as the primary thermal path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (Tab) | Main high-side power output node | Electrically tied to heatsink; requires insulated mounting in half-bridge configurations |
| Gate | Control input for IGBT channel | Requires 15 V ±10 % drive; sensitive to ringing; needs low-inductance gate loop |
| Emitter | Power return and signal reference | Serves as common source for gate driver return and current sensing reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Co-packaged fast recovery diode | Enables single-package inverter leg with matched thermal and dynamic behavior |
| Low VCE(sat) (1.8 V) | Reduces conduction losses by ~15 % vs. comparable 2.2 V IGBTs at 15 A |
| Soft diode recovery | Minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI during commutation in motor control |
| 10 µs short-circuit rating | Supports robust protection schemes without external desaturation detection delay compensation |
| TO-247AC mechanical footprint | Ensures drop-in compatibility with legacy 30–40 A IGBT designs using standard heatsinks |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |

Use Value: 1.8 V VCE(sat) reduces thermal load on heatsink by 12 W per device vs. 2.1 V alternatives at full load. | Use Scenario: DC–AC inverter in online double-conversion UPS systems delivering clean sine-wave output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in H-bridge topology; synchronized with complementary low-side IGBTs. Use Value: Integrated diode eliminates need for discrete antiparallel diodes, reducing PCB area by 28 mm² per leg. |
| Solar Inverters | Induction Heating Systems |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output stage switch operating in hard-switched mode at 12–20 kHz. Use Value: 10 µs short-circuit withstand enables reliable overcurrent response without sacrificing switching speed. | Use Scenario: Resonant inverter bridge in medium-frequency (20–50 kHz) induction cooktops and furnaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current switching element in series-resonant tank circuit. Use Value: Soft-recovery diode limits dv/dt-induced false triggering during zero-voltage switching transitions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRGP4062DPBF | 600 V, 40 A, VCE(sat) = 1.9 V, QG = 52 nC, TO-247 long leads | Higher current rating but larger gate drive requirement and higher conduction loss at partial load | Preferred when peak load exceeds 30 A and gate drive capability supports 52 nC |
| FGA25N120ANTD | 1200 V, 25 A, VCE(sat) = 2.2 V, no integrated diode, TO-3P | Higher voltage rating but requires external diode and has higher conduction loss | Selected only when system bus voltage exceeds 600 V or diode replacement is acceptable |
Compared with IRG4PC30KD, IRGP4062DPBF offers higher current headroom at the cost of increased switching loss and gate drive demand, while FGA25N120ANTD trades off integration and conduction efficiency for extended voltage capability-neither is pin-compatible nor functionally identical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The IRG4PC30KD is rated for continuous operation up to TJ = 150 °C. Derating is required above TC = 100 °C per the datasheet's derating curve; at TC = 115 °C, maximum IC drops to 22 A. Thermal design must maintain case temperature below 100 °C for full 30 A rating.
Is the integrated diode suitable for freewheeling in hard-switched PFC stages?
No-the integrated diode is optimized for motor drive and inverter freewheeling, not PFC. Its trr of 125 ns and softness are insufficient for >100 kHz boost PFC; dedicated ultrafast diodes like IDH08SG60C are recommended instead.
Can IRG4PC30KD be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with careful attention to gate drive matching, emitter inductance balancing, and thermal coupling. The device exhibits positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient above 100 °C, enabling current sharing-but layout asymmetry can cause imbalance exceeding 20 % at full load.
Does this part have an internal gate resistor?
No-IRG4PC30KD has no internal gate resistor. An external gate resistor (typically 3–10 Ω) is mandatory to control dV/dt, limit peak gate current, and damp oscillations. Layout must minimize gate loop inductance to prevent unintended turn-on during high di/dt events.
