Product details
Overview
IRG4PC30WPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600V, 23A, 1.8V VCE(sat) N-channel IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for hard-switched motor drives and UPS inverters requiring low conduction loss and robust short-circuit capability. It features a co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode with 35ns reverse recovery time and 125°C maximum junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC30WPBF datasheet, IRG4PC30WPBF pinout, IRG4PC30WPBF application, or IRG4PC30WPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat) at 12A, short-circuit withstand time (10µs), diode reverse recovery Qrr (55nC), and gate charge (65nC) for gate driver sizing and thermal design.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses Infineon's TrenchStop™ 1 process with field-stop structure to achieve optimized trade-off between switching speed and saturation voltage. Its gate threshold voltage is 5.0V (min), enabling direct drive from 5V logic controllers without level-shifting.
The integrated diode exhibits soft recovery behavior with peak reverse recovery current IRRM of 32A and low Erec (1.2mJ), reducing snubber stress and EMI in bridge-leg configurations used in industrial inverters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 600V - supports 400V DC bus designs with 50% safety margin for transient overvoltage |
| IC @ TC=25°C | 23A - continuous collector current rating at heatsink-mounted condition |
| VCE(sat) @ IC=12A | 1.8V - enables <1.5W conduction loss per device at rated current, critical for thermal management |
| tsc | 10µs - short-circuit withstand time at VGE=15V, VCE=300V, Tj=125°C |
| Qg | 65nC - determines required gate driver peak current (≥2A) for 100ns turn-on |
| Diode trr | 35ns - limits voltage overshoot during commutation in full-bridge topologies |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.85°C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance defines minimum heatsink requirement for 125°C operation |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package: 3-pin through-hole outline with isolated tab (collector connected to tab), standard footprint compatible with industry thermal mounting practices.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| Gate (G) | Control input | High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; requires ≤±20V gate-source voltage and low-inductance PCB routing |
| Emiter (E) | Power return and reference node | Serves as common source for gate drive return path and current sense reference in low-side configuration |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchStop™ 1 technology | Enables simultaneous optimization of VCE(sat) and switching losses without process compromise |
| Co-packaged ultrafast diode | Eliminates discrete diode placement error and parasitic inductance in half-bridge leg |
| 10µs short-circuit rating | Supports fault detection window for microcontroller-based protection without external desaturation sensing |
| 125°C max Tj | Permits higher power density in space-constrained industrial enclosures with forced-air cooling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGW20NB60WD | 600V/20A, VCE(sat)=1.95V, tsc=8µs, no co-packaged diode | Requires external diode selection and layout; higher conduction loss at 12A | Preferred where discrete diode optimization is needed for specific Rrr/Qrr targets |
| IXGH24N60B3D1 | 600V/24A, VCE(sat)=2.1V, tsc=10µs, integrated diode with 50ns trr | Higher VCE(sat) increases conduction loss; slower diode raises EMI risk above 10kHz | Acceptable for lower-frequency (<8kHz) industrial drives where thermal margin exists |
Compared with STGW20NB60WD and IXGH24N60B3D1, IRG4PC30WPBF delivers the lowest VCE(sat) and fastest integrated diode among TO-247 IGBTs rated ≥20A/600V, making it optimal for thermally constrained 10–16kHz motor drives.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRG4PC30WPBF?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20V. Operation beyond ±15V risks irreversible gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15V for turn-on and –5V to –10V for turn-off to ensure fast, noise-immune switching and prevent Miller-induced false turn-on during high dV/dt transitions.
Does IRG4PC30WPBF require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
While not strictly required, applying –5V to –10V during turn-off improves immunity to parasitic turn-on caused by high dV/dt across the collector-emitter terminals. This is especially critical in bridge configurations where the high-side device experiences rapid voltage transients during low-side switching.
Can IRG4PC30WPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with matched devices and symmetrical gate drive/layout. The positive temperature coefficient of VCE(sat) enables current sharing, yet gate resistance must be individually tuned per device to equalize turn-on delay and rise time. Thermal coupling via shared heatsink is mandatory for stable operation.
What is the typical diode forward voltage at 12A and 25°C?
The co-packaged diode has a typical VF of 2.2V at IF=12A and Tj=25°C. This value increases to ~2.5V at Tj=125°C, directly impacting conduction loss in freewheeling intervals of inverter operation.
