Product details

Overview

IRG4PC50KDPBF from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600V, 35A, 1.4V typical V_CE(sat) short-circuit rated IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for high-efficiency motor drives and UPS inverters operating at 16kHz switching frequency with 10µs short-circuit withstand time.

For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC50KDPBF datasheet, IRG4PC50KDPBF pinout, IRG4PC50KDPBF application, or IRG4PC50KDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V blocking voltage, 35A continuous collector current, 1.4V V_CE(sat), 10µs short-circuit rating, and TO-247AC thermal performance in industrial power conversion.

Technical Context

This IGBT uses a non-punch-through (NPT) silicon structure with field-stop technology, enabling balanced conduction and switching losses. It integrates an anti-parallel ultrafast soft-recovery diode with 125ns reverse recovery time and 100A peak forward surge current capability.

Gate threshold voltage is 5.0V (min), requiring compatible 15V gate drive for full saturation. The device supports hard-switched topologies including 3-phase bridge inverters and resonant DC-DC converters up to 16kHz without active snubbers.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CES	600V - Maximum collector-emitter blocking voltage under open-gate condition
I_C (T_c=100°C)	35A - Continuous collector current at case temperature of 100°C
V_CE(sat) @ I_C=35A	1.4V (typ) - Low conduction loss enabling <1.2W conduction dissipation at rated current
t_sc	10µs - Short-circuit withstand time at V_CE=600V, T_j=25°C, limiting fault energy
E_off	1.2mJ @ V_CE=400V, I_C=35A - Measured turn-off energy defining heatsink sizing for 16kHz operation
Q_g	120nC - Total gate charge determining 15V gate driver current requirement (~2A peak)

Pinout & Package

Package: TO-247AC (3-pin, isolated tab). Standard lead-free plating per JEDEC J-STD-020.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (C)	Main high-side power terminal	Connected to DC bus positive; carries full load current and must be thermally coupled to heatsink via isolated mounting
Gate (G)	Control input	Receives 15V ±10% drive signal; requires low-inductance layout to limit dV/dt-induced false turn-on
Emitter (E)	Power return and reference node	Serves as common source for gate drive return and current sensing; must be star-connected to minimize noise coupling

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Short-circuit rated	10µs withstand at 600V - Enables robust overcurrent protection without desaturation circuitry in motor drive designs
Ultrafast anti-parallel diode	125ns t_rr, soft recovery - Reduces EMI and voltage spikes during freewheeling in inverter legs
NPT field-stop structure	Balanced 1.4V V_CE(sat) and 1.2mJ E_off - Optimized for 10–20kHz industrial switching with minimal heatsink mass
Lead-free (PbF)	RoHS-compliant plating per J-STD-020 - Supports automated reflow assembly without post-process cleaning

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IXGH35N60B3D1	600V/35A, 1.8V V_CE(sat), no integrated diode	Requires external ultrafast diode; higher conduction loss	Preferred where discrete diode selection enables custom recovery tuning
FGH30S60UFD	600V/30A, 1.5V V_CE(sat), 8µs t_sc, TO-247-4L	Lower current rating and shorter short-circuit time; 4th pin for Kelvin emitter	Chosen when precise gate control and lower EMI are prioritized over current headroom

Compared with IXGH35N60B3D1 and FGH30S60UFD, IRG4PC50KDPBF offers superior short-circuit ruggedness (10µs vs. 8µs/none) and integrated diode convenience, making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial inverters where reliability and BOM simplification are critical.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature for reliable operation?

The IRG4PC50KDPBF has a rated maximum junction temperature of 150°C. Operation above this limit risks permanent degradation of the NPT die structure and accelerated gate oxide wear. Thermal design must ensure T_j remains ≤150°C under worst-case ambient and load conditions, verified via transient thermal impedance modeling.

Does this IGBT require negative gate voltage for turn-off?

No. The IRG4PC50KDPBF is designed for zero-to-15V gate drive only. Applying negative voltage (e.g., –5V) is unnecessary and may accelerate gate oxide stress. Stable turn-off is achieved with 0V gate potential referenced to emitter, provided gate loop inductance is kept below 20nH.

Can the integrated diode replace an external freewheeling diode in all cases?

Yes - the monolithically integrated ultrafast diode is rated for 35A continuous and 100A surge, matching the IGBT's current capability. Its 125ns soft recovery eliminates voltage overshoot in standard inverter leg configurations, removing the need for external diodes unless specialized reverse recovery tailoring is required.

Is the TO-247AC package electrically isolated?

No. The TO-247AC package has an electrically connected collector tab. The metal tab is internally bonded to the collector terminal, requiring insulated mounting hardware (e.g., silicone pad + shoulder washer) when mounted to a grounded heatsink to prevent short circuits.
