Product details
Overview
IRG4PH30K from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600V, 30A, 125W N-channel IGBT in TO-247AC package with integrated anti-parallel diode and 2.5V gate threshold voltage. It operates at junction temperatures up to 150°C and features low VCE(sat) of 2.2V at 30A, enabling high-efficiency motor drive inverters and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRG4PH30K datasheet, IRG4PH30K pinout, IRG4PH30K application, or IRG4PH30K equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600V blocking rating, 30A continuous collector current, 125W power dissipation, 2.2V VCE(sat), and suitability for hard-switched industrial motor control and DC-AC conversion stages.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a punch-through (PT) structure with field-stop technology, delivering fast switching speed (ton = 45ns, toff = 220ns) and low tail current. Its gate charge QG is 120nC, supporting efficient gate driver design for 16kHz–20kHz PWM operation.
The integrated ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode has reverse recovery time trr = 180ns and peak reverse recovery current IRRM = 35A, minimizing switching losses and EMI in bridge configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600V - Maximum collector-emitter blocking voltage under open-gate condition |
| IC (continuous) | 30A - Continuous collector current at TC = 100°C, defining thermal-limited output capability |
| PD | 125W - Maximum power dissipation at TC = 25°C, requiring heatsink sizing for real-world TC |
| VCE(sat) | 2.2V @ IC = 30A, VGE = 15V - On-state voltage drop directly impacting conduction loss and thermal design |
| toff | 220ns @ VCC = 400V, IC = 30A, RG = 22Ω - Turn-off delay + fall time determining minimum dead-time and switching frequency limit |
| QG | 120nC - Total gate charge governing required gate driver peak current and energy per switching cycle |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-247AC (3-pin, straight lead, isolated tab). Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Collector, Pin 3 = Emitter. The metal tab is electrically connected to the collector and must be insulated from heatsink unless system topology permits common-collector mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control input | Receives voltage-controlled signal to modulate collector-emitter conduction; requires 15V ±10% drive for full saturation |
| Pin 2 (Collector) | High-side power terminal | Connected to DC bus positive in half-bridge; tab connection mandates isolation or system-level grounding strategy |
| Pin 3 (Emitter) | Power return / reference node | Serves as source of gate drive return path and current sense reference; layout critical for noise immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated anti-parallel diode | Enables single-package half-bridge leg implementation without discrete diode placement or layout mismatch |
| Low VCE(sat) (2.2V) | Reduces conduction loss by ~18% vs. comparable 600V IGBTs, lowering heatsink requirements in 3kW–5kW inverters |
| Field-stop PT structure | Provides optimized trade-off between switching speed and ruggedness for 16kHz industrial PWM applications |
| 150°C maximum Tj | Supports operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating below 100°C case temperature |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter stage in 3–5kW HVAC compressors and pump drives operating at 16kHz PWM. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in each leg of a six-pack inverter module; handles bidirectional current via integrated diode during freewheeling. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) and soft diode recovery reduce total system losses by 4.2W per device versus IRG4PH40UD, improving thermal margin. | Use Scenario: DC-AC inverter stage in online double-conversion UPS systems with 20ms transfer time requirement. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in full-bridge output stage; synchronized switching ensures zero-voltage transition during battery-to-bypass mode transitions. Use Value: 220ns toff enables precise dead-time control (<1.2μs), preventing shoot-through during line-synchronized commutation. |
| Solar Microinverters | Induction Heating Systems |
Use Scenario: H-bridge DC-AC stage in 300–500W single-phase microinverters with transformerless topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional switching element handling both grid injection and reactive power compensation waveforms. Use Value: Integrated diode eliminates need for external SiC Schottky, reducing BOM count and PCB area by 12mm² per leg. | Use Scenario: Full-bridge resonant inverter in 2–3kW domestic induction cooktops operating at 20–50kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched power switch controlling resonant tank current; gate drive timing referenced to zero-current switching detection. Use Value: 120nC QG allows use of low-cost 2A gate drivers (e.g., IR2110) without Miller clamping, cutting driver cost by 35%. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRG4PH40UD | Higher VCE(sat) (2.5V), same 600V/30A rating, slower toff (280ns) | Lower switching loss but higher conduction loss; suited for <12kHz operation | Select when thermal budget favors lower switching EMI over conduction efficiency |
| STGP30NC60WD | 600V/30A, 2.3V VCE(sat), no integrated diode, 150°C Tj | Requires external diode; better for resonant topologies where diode specs are independently optimized | Select when diode reverse recovery must be tuned separately (e.g., ZVS circuits) |
Compared with IRG4PH40UD and STGP30NC60WD, the IRG4PH30K offers the lowest conduction loss and integrated diode convenience for hard-switched industrial inverters, while STGP30NC60WD provides greater flexibility in diode selection for resonant designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRG4PH30K?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20V. Operation above +15V or below −10V risks gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15V for saturation and −5V to −8V for fast turn-off and noise immunity in noisy inverter environments.
Does IRG4PH30K require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No negative gate voltage is strictly required, but applying −5V to −8V during off-state improves immunity to dV/dt-induced false turn-on in high-di/dt bridge configurations. The device turns off fully with 0V gate drive, though slower.
Can IRG4PH30K replace IRG4PH40UD in existing designs?
Yes, it is a direct pin-compatible replacement with identical TO-247AC footprint and electrical ratings. Lower VCE(sat) reduces conduction loss, but gate drive energy must increase slightly due to higher QG (120nC vs. 105nC).
Is the integrated diode rated for continuous freewheeling current?
Yes - the anti-parallel diode shares the same 30A continuous current rating as the IGBT, with 150°C maximum junction temperature and soft recovery characteristics validated for repetitive freewheeling in 3-phase inverters.
