Product details
Overview
IRG4PF50WDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 30 A, 1.7 V typical VCE(sat) short-circuit rated IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for high-efficiency motor drives and UPS inverters with fast switching and low conduction loss.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4PF50WDPBF datasheet, IRG4PF50WDPBF pinout, IRG4PF50WDPBF application, or IRG4PF50WDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include short-circuit withstand time (10 µs), gate threshold voltage (5.0 V), positive temperature coefficient of VCE(sat), and co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses trench-gate field-stop technology to achieve balanced switching speed and ruggedness. It features a monolithic integrated gate resistor (RG = 50 Ω) and a built-in 30 A/600 V ultrafast diode with 35 ns reverse recovery time and soft recovery characteristics.
The device operates with a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C and supports gate drive voltages from −20 V to +20 V. Its short-circuit capability is rated for 10 µs at 15 V VGE, 600 V VCE, and Tj = 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50 % voltage margin for transients |
| IC continuous | 30 A @ Tc = 100 °C - enables compact heatsink sizing in forced-air cooled inverters |
| VCE(sat) | 1.7 V typ @ IC = 30 A, VGE = 15 V - reduces conduction loss vs. older planar IGBTs |
| tsc | 10 µs @ VCE = 600 V, VGE = 15 V, Tj = 150 °C - allows robust overcurrent protection without desaturation circuitry |
| Qg | 125 nC @ VGE = 15 V - determines gate driver peak current requirement (~2.5 A for 50 ns rise) |
| Diode trr | 35 ns - minimizes commutation losses and EMI in hard-switched bridge legs |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package with 3-pin through-hole mounting, isolated tab (collector), and creepage/clearance compliant for 600 V systems.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |

| Emiter (E) | Power return and reference | Serves as common emitter for IGBT and anti-parallel diode; defines gate-emitter voltage reference |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRGP4062DPBF | 600 V, 40 A, higher Qg (195 nC), no integrated gate resistor | Better suited for lower-frequency, higher-current industrial drives where gate drive strength is available | Select when higher current headroom is needed and gate driver can supply >3.5 A peak |

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRG4PF50WDPBF?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is −20 V to +20 V. Operation above +15 V or below −10 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for saturation and −8 V to −10 V for reliable turn-off and noise immunity in noisy industrial environments.
Does IRG4PF50WDPBF require an external gate resistor?
No. The device integrates a 50 Ω gate resistor monolithically. External gate resistance is unnecessary for standard switching; however, a small series resistor (≤5 Ω) may be added for fine-tuning dV/dt or damping parasitic oscillations in high-di/dt layouts.
Can IRG4PF50WDPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes. Its positive temperature coefficient of VCE(sat) enables stable current sharing among paralleled units without external emitter resistors. Thermal coupling and symmetrical gate drive layout remain essential to ensure balanced dynamic current distribution.
Is the anti-parallel diode in IRG4PF50WDPBF suitable for ZVS or resonant topologies?
Yes. With 35 ns reverse recovery time and soft recovery (softness factor >1.2), the co-packaged diode supports zero-voltage switching in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge topologies up to 100 kHz, provided diode commutation current slew rate remains within datasheet limits.
