Product details

Overview

IRG4PC40UDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 20 A, 1.5 V gate threshold N-channel IGBT in TO-247AC package, optimized for hard-switched motor control and UPS inverters with low conduction and switching losses.

For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC40UDPBF datasheet, IRG4PC40UDPBF pinout, IRG4PC40UDPBF application, or IRG4PC40UDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include V_CE(sat) @ 10 A (1.85 V), E_ON (0.9 mJ), E_OFF (0.45 mJ), t_f (120 ns), and T_J(max) (150 °C).

Technical Context

This IGBT employs punch-through (PT) structure with field-stop layer and optimized carrier lifetime control to balance switching speed and saturation voltage. It integrates an anti-parallel ultrafast soft-recovery diode rated at 20 A / 600 V in the same TO-247AC package.

The device operates with 15 V gate drive and supports gate-emitter voltage range of –20 V to +20 V. Its short-circuit withstand time is 10 µs at 15 V V_GE, T_J = 125 °C, and V_CE = 400 V.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE(max)	600 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 400–480 V DC bus applications
I_C @ T_C=25°C	20 A - Continuous collector current rating at case temperature 25 °C
V_CE(sat) @ I_C=10 A	1.85 V - Low saturation voltage enabling <1.5 W conduction loss at 10 A
E_ON + E_OFF	1.35 mJ @ V_CE=400 V, I_C=10 A - Total switching energy per cycle at typical inverter operating point
t_f	120 ns - Fast fall time supporting 20 kHz PWM operation with minimal tail current
T_J(max)	150 °C - Maximum junction temperature defining thermal derating limits

Pinout & Package

TO-247AC package: 3-pin through-hole outline with isolated tab (collector connected to tab), standard lead spacing and creepage distance for industrial isolation requirements.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (C)	Main high-side power terminal	Connected to heatsink via isolated tab; carries full load current and blocks 600 V
Gate (G)	Control input	Receives ±20 V logic-level signal; requires 47 nC total gate charge for full turn-on
Emitter (E)	Power return and reference node	Serves as common source for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance path critical for dV/dt immunity

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode	Integrated 20 A / 600 V diode with 35 ns reverse recovery time and low Q_rr, eliminating need for external freewheeling diode
Low V_CE(sat) with robust short-circuit capability	1.85 V @ 10 A and 10 µs short-circuit withstand time enable high-efficiency motor drives without overdesign
Field-stop PT IGBT structure	Optimized carrier distribution reduces switching losses while maintaining ruggedness at 150 °C junction temperature
Isolated TO-247AC package	Tab-isolated construction allows direct mounting to heatsink without insulating washer, reducing thermal resistance by up to 0.5 K/W

Applications

Industrial Motor Drives

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

Use Scenario: 3-phase inverter stage in 2–5 kW variable-frequency drives for pumps and fans.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in each leg of the inverter bridge, commutating DC bus to AC output at 2–16 kHz.

Use Value: Low V_CE(sat) and fast switching reduce conduction and switching losses, improving system efficiency by ≥1.2% at full load.

Use Scenario: Inverter output stage in line-interactive and online double-conversion UPS systems.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in H-bridge topology delivering clean 50/60 Hz sine-wave output under battery backup.

Use Value: Integrated diode enables zero-voltage switching during commutation, reducing EMI and improving THD below 3%.

Solar Microinverters

Induction Heating Systems

Use Scenario: DC–AC conversion stage in single-phase grid-tied microinverters for residential PV panels.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Full-bridge switching element handling 250–400 V DC input and generating 230 V AC output at 20 kHz.

Use Value: 120 ns t_f and low E_OFF allow high-frequency operation with minimal thermal stress on heatsink.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT-based inverter applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IRG4PH40KD-PBF	Higher V_CE(sat) (2.1 V @ 10 A), lower E_OFF (0.35 mJ), same TO-247AC package	Better suited for higher-frequency (>30 kHz) resonant converters where switching loss dominates	Select when prioritizing E_OFF reduction over conduction loss in high-speed designs
FGA25N120ANTD	1200 V rating, 25 A I_C, higher V_CE(sat) (2.4 V), no integrated diode	Required for 600–800 V DC bus systems like EV chargers or industrial rectifiers	Choose only when 1200 V blocking capability is mandatory; external diode needed

Compared with IRG4PC40UDPBF, IRG4PH40KD-PBF trades 0.25 V higher saturation voltage for 0.1 mJ lower turn-off energy, while FGA25N120ANTD sacrifices integration and conduction efficiency for doubled voltage rating-making IRG4PC40UDPBF optimal for cost-sensitive 400–480 V hard-switched inverters.

FAQ

What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRG4PC40UDPBF?

The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is –20 V to +20 V. Operation beyond ±20 V 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 robust noise immunity and prevent spurious conduction during high dV/dt transitions.

Does IRG4PC40UDPBF include an integrated diode?

Yes, it integrates a co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery diode rated at 20 A and 600 V. The diode shares the same TO-247AC package and has reverse recovery time (t_rr) of 35 ns and peak reverse recovery current (I_RRM) of 25 A, eliminating the need for discrete freewheeling diodes in most inverter topologies.

What is the short-circuit withstand time specification?

The device is rated for 10 µs short-circuit withstand time at V_CE = 400 V, V_GE = 15 V, and T_J = 125 °C. This rating assumes proper gate drive strength and layout; exceeding this duration risks thermal runaway and irreversible failure.

Can IRG4PC40UDPBF be used in parallel configurations?

Parallel operation is not recommended due to positive temperature coefficient of V_CE(sat) being insufficient for self-balancing. Mismatched dynamic parameters (especially gate charge and Miller capacitance) cause current imbalance. For >20 A systems, use a single higher-current IGBT or implement active current-sharing circuits.
