Product details
Overview
IRG4PC30S from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600 V, 30 A n-channel insulated gate bipolar transistor in TO-247AC package, rated for 125 W continuous power dissipation at TC = 25 °C, with typical VCE(sat) = 2.2 V at IC = 15 A and VGE = 15 V, used in motor control inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC30S datasheet, IRG4PC30S pinout, IRG4PC30S application, or IRG4PC30S equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V blocking voltage, 30 A DC collector current rating, 2.2 V saturation voltage, 125 W thermal limit, and TO-247AC mechanical footprint compatibility with industrial switching designs.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a punch-through structure with a co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode, enabling operation up to 20 kHz in hard-switched topologies. Its gate threshold voltage VGE(th) is 5.0 V min, and total gate charge QG is 95 nC at VGE = 15 V, supporting standard ±15 V gate drive.
Thermal performance is defined by junction-to-case thermal resistance RthJC = 0.8 °C/W and maximum junction temperature TJ = 150 °C. Safe operating area (SOA) is specified for single-pulse and repetitive conditions up to 480 V and 18 A at TJ = 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - Maximum collector-emitter blocking voltage under open-gate condition |
| IC (DC) | 30 A - Continuous collector current rating at TC = 25 °C |
| VCE(sat) | 2.2 V @ IC = 15 A, VGE = 15 V - Low conduction loss enabling high-efficiency 1–20 kHz switching |
| QG | 95 nC @ VGE = 15 V - Gate drive energy requirement determines driver IC sizing and switching speed trade-off |
| RthJC | 0.8 °C/W - Enables 125 W power dissipation with ≤100 °C case-to-ambient delta under forced-air cooling |
| Eoff | 1.2 mJ @ VCC = 480 V, IC = 18 A, RG = 23 Ω - Critical for calculating total switching losses in inverter leg design |
Pinout & Package
IRG4PC30S uses the industry-standard TO-247AC package (JEDEC outline), featuring isolated mounting hole, 4-pin configuration with dual collector leads for low-inductance high-current paths, and 0.8 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Gate | Control terminal | Receives voltage-controlled signal to modulate collector-emitter conduction; requires 5–15 V drive relative to emitter |
| 2 - Collector | High-side power input | Connects to DC bus positive; carries full load current and withstands 600 V transients |
| 3 - Emitter | Power return reference | Serves as common reference for gate drive and current sensing; connects to DC bus negative or shunt resistor |
| 4 - Collector | Redundant high-current path | Dual collector lead reduces package inductance and improves current sharing in parallel configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode | Co-packaged diode with 35 ns reverse recovery time enables zero-voltage switching in resonant converters |
| Punch-through IGBT structure | Optimized carrier lifetime for balanced conduction and switching losses across 1–20 kHz range |
| Low VCE(sat) drift over temperature | VCE(sat) increases only 0.5 mV/°C from 25 °C to 150 °C, ensuring stable current sharing in paralleled devices |

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for IRG4PC30S?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V. Operation above +20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage, while sustained negative voltage below −10 V may cause unintended turn-on due to Miller effect. Recommended drive is +15 V for turn-on and −5 V to −10 V for turn-off to ensure clean commutation.
Does IRG4PC30S include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
Yes - IRG4PC30S integrates an ultrafast soft-recovery diode in the same TO-247AC package. The diode has 35 ns reverse recovery time, 30 A peak forward current rating, and shares the same thermal path as the IGBT die, enabling synchronous rectification in half-bridge configurations without external diodes.
Can IRG4PC30S be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (0.5 mV/°C) ensures inherent current sharing when paralleled. Successful implementation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and shared heatsink mounting to maintain ≤2 °C inter-device temperature difference at full load.
What is the short-circuit withstand time at 150 °C junction temperature?
IRG4PC30S guarantees a minimum short-circuit withstand time of 10 µs at VCC = 480 V and TJ = 150 °C. This enables implementation of fast desaturation detection circuits with ≤5 µs response time, meeting IEC 61800-5-1 functional safety requirements for motor drives.
