Product details

Overview

IRG4PC50UDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600V, 55A, 200W N-channel IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for high-efficiency hard-switching and resonant-mode power conversion. It features low V_CE(sat) of 2.0V at 25°C and 55A, fast switching with t_f = 85ns, and integrated anti-parallel FRD. Used in industrial motor drives and UPS inverters.

For engineers reviewing the IRG4PC50UDPBF datasheet, IRG4PC50UDPBF pinout, IRG4PC50UDPBF application, or IRG4PC50UDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include V_CE rating, continuous collector current, switching speed, thermal resistance (R_thJC = 0.55°C/W), and gate charge (Q_G = 125nC) for gate driver sizing.

Technical Context

This IGBT employs punch-through (PT) structure with field-stop layer for optimized conduction and switching trade-off. Its gate threshold voltage V_GE(th) is 5.0V min at 25°C, ensuring robust noise immunity in noisy industrial environments.

The device integrates a soft-recovery, ultrafast anti-parallel diode with reverse recovery time t_rr = 250ns and peak recovery dv/dt capability of 500V/μs, enabling reliable operation in bridge configurations without external snubbers.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE max	600V - supports DC bus up to 400V AC input rectified systems with 50% safety margin
I_C cont @ T_C=25°C	55A - enables 11kW output in 3-phase motor drive with forced-air cooling
P_D @ T_C=25°C	200W - defines maximum dissipation before thermal derating begins
V_CE(sat) @ I_C=55A	2.0V typical - reduces conduction loss by ~30% vs. older 2.7V IGBTs at same current
t_f	85ns - allows switching frequencies up to 20kHz in hard-switched PFC stages
R_thJC	0.55°C/W - requires heatsink thermal resistance ≤1.0°C/W for T_J ≤150°C at full load
Q_G	125nC - determines minimum gate driver peak current ≥2.5A for 100ns turn-on

Pinout & Package

TO-247AC package: 3-pin through-hole outline with isolated tab (collector connected to tab). Standard lead-free plating, RoHS compliant.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (Tab)	Main power output terminal	Electrically tied to metal tab; must be mounted to heatsink with electrically insulating thermal interface
Gate	Control input	High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; requires 15V ±10% drive and <10Ω series resistance to limit ringing
Emiter	Power return and reference	Serves as common emitter node for IGBT and anti-parallel diode; critical for low-inductance PCB layout

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Low V_CE(sat)	2.0V at 55A/25°C - directly lowers conduction losses in high-current motor phases
Ultrafast soft-recovery FRD	t_rr = 250ns, softness factor >1.2 - suppresses voltage overshoot during diode commutation in inverter legs
Positive temperature coefficient of V_CE(sat)	Enables inherent current sharing in parallel configurations - eliminates need for emitter resistors
Short-circuit ruggedness	Withstands 10μs at 10× rated current with V_GE = 15V - supports protection circuitry response time in fault conditions

Equivalent & Alternatives

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

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IXYS IXGH50N60B3	Higher V_CE(sat) = 2.3V; lower Q_G = 95nC; no integrated diode	Requires external ultrafast diode; better suited for very high-frequency ZVS where gate drive loss dominates	Choose when optimizing for >50kHz operation and willing to manage discrete diode layout
STMicroelectronics STGW50H65DF	650V rating; V_CE(sat) = 2.1V; includes co-packaged diode but slower t_f = 120ns	Better for 400VAC input systems needing higher voltage margin; less suitable for 20kHz+ hard switching	Prefer for new designs targeting 650V bus with relaxed switching speed requirements

Compared with IXGH50N60B3 and STGW50H65DF, IRG4PC50UDPBF delivers optimal balance of conduction loss, switching speed, and integrated diode performance for 600V industrial inverters operating at 8–20kHz - making it the default choice where board space and EMI reduction are prioritized.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?

The IRG4PC50UDPBF has a maximum rated junction temperature of 150°C. Operation above this value risks permanent degradation of the IGBT die and integrated diode. Derating curves in the official datasheet specify allowable I_C versus T_C; at T_C = 100°C, continuous current drops to 32A to maintain T_J ≤ 150°C.

Does the integrated diode require separate gate control?

No. The anti-parallel diode is a monolithic, uncontrolled silicon PN junction integrated into the same die as the IGBT. It conducts automatically when forward-biased and recovers passively during reverse bias - no gate signal or external control is needed or possible.

Can IRG4PC50UDPBF be paralleled without emitter resistors?

Yes - due to its positive temperature coefficient of V_CE(sat), current sharing improves as temperature rises. Parallel operation is feasible with matched gate drive and symmetrical layout, though gate resistor matching (±5%) and identical thermal mounting are still required for stability under transient loads.

Is the TO-247AC package electrically insulated?

No. The metal tab is internally connected to the collector terminal. Electrical isolation from the heatsink must be achieved using an insulating washer or mica pad with thermal compound, or a fully isolated mounting kit. Failure to isolate will short the collector to chassis ground.
