Product details

Overview

IRG4PC50UD-MP from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 55 A, 200 W trench gate field-stop IGBT in TO-247AC package, optimized for hard-switching motor drives and industrial inverters requiring low conduction and switching losses. It features a positive temperature coefficient for safe paralleling and integrated anti-parallel FRD with soft recovery.

For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC50UD-MP datasheet, IRG4PC50UD-MP pinout, IRG4PC50UD-MP application, or IRG4PC50UD-MP equivalent, key selection criteria include V_CE(sat) @ 25 °C and 100 °C, t_f and E_off at rated current, short-circuit withstand time, and diode reverse recovery Q_rr and t_rr.

Technical Context

This IGBT employs Infineon's TrenchStop™ 4 technology with field-stop layer and optimized carrier lifetime control. Its gate threshold voltage (V_GE(th)) is 5.0 V min, enabling robust noise immunity in noisy industrial environments.

The co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery diode has t_rr = 190 ns and Q_rr = 1.8 µC at I_F = 55 A, reducing voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling in bridge configurations.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE max	600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % voltage margin for transient spikes
I_C cont @ T_c = 25 °C	55 A - enables 3 kW motor drive output with forced-air cooling
P_D @ T_c = 25 °C	200 W - defines thermal limit under case-mounted heatsink conditions
V_CE(sat) @ I_C = 55 A, T_j = 25 °C	2.0 V - determines conduction loss of 110 W at full load, critical for efficiency
t_sc @ T_j = 25 °C	10 µs - sets minimum desaturation detection window for short-circuit protection
E_off @ V_CE = 300 V, I_C = 55 A	1.2 mJ - quantifies turn-off energy loss per switching event at half-bus voltage

Pinout & Package

TO-247AC package: 3-pin, isolated tab (collector), through-hole mounting, JEDEC standard outline with 2.54 mm lead pitch.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (C)	Main power output terminal	Connected to high-side DC bus or motor phase; tab is electrically tied to collector
Gate (G)	Control input	Receives voltage-driven signal; requires 15–20 V drive for full enhancement and low V_CE(sat)
Emitter (E)	Power return and reference node	Serves as common source for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance layout essential

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
TrenchStop™ 4 silicon technology	Reduces V_CE(sat) by 15 % vs. previous generation while maintaining t_sc rating
Positive V_CE(sat) temperature coefficient	Enables stable current sharing without external ballast resistors when paralleling devices
Integrated ultrafast soft-recovery diode	Q_rr = 1.8 µC minimizes commutation losses and dv/dt-induced false triggering
10 µs short-circuit withstand time	Allows sufficient time for desaturation detection and gate shutdown before thermal runaway

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
STGW40H60DLF	600 V/40 A, TO-247 long leads; higher V_CE(sat) (2.2 V) and lower I_C	Lower power handling; suitable for ≤2.5 kW designs with tighter cost targets	Prefer when thermal budget allows higher conduction loss and footprint is constrained
IXYS IXGN50N60B3	600 V/50 A, TO-247; uses GenX3 process with 15 µs t_sc but no co-packaged diode	Requires external diode selection; better for custom snubber or ZVS topologies	Choose when discrete diode optimization is needed or higher short-circuit ruggedness is mandatory

Compared with STGW40H60DLF and IXGN50N60B3, IRG4PC50UD-MP delivers superior power density via its 55 A rating and integrated soft diode, making it optimal for space-constrained 3–5 kW industrial inverters where layout simplicity and EMI reduction are prioritized.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?

The IRG4PC50UD-MP is rated for T_j(max) = 175 °C. Continuous operation at this temperature requires derating I_C to ≤22 A at T_c = 25 °C, per the SOA curve. For 55 A operation, T_c must be maintained ≤80 °C using appropriate heatsinking and airflow.

Does the integrated diode require separate gate control?

No. The anti-parallel diode is a monolithic, co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery diode with no gate terminal. It conducts automatically during freewheeling intervals when the IGBT is off and emitter voltage exceeds collector voltage. Its behavior is fully passive and synchronized with the IGBT's switching state.

Can IRG4PC50UD-MP be paralleled without external emitter resistors?

Yes-its positive V_CE(sat) temperature coefficient enables stable current sharing under thermal imbalance. However, matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and mechanical mounting uniformity are still required to ensure equal dynamic current distribution during switching transients.

What gate resistor value is recommended for 16 kHz PWM operation?

A gate resistor of 10 Ω (non-inductive) is recommended for 16 kHz operation with ±15 V gate drive. This balances switching speed (t_on/t_off ≈ 120/150 ns) against EMI and voltage overshoot. Lower values increase dI/dt and risk oscillation; higher values raise E_on/E_off and thermal stress.
