Product details
Overview
IRG7PH42UD1PBF from Infineon Technologies is a 1200 V, 85 A, 313 W trench gate field-stop IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for high-voltage motor drives and industrial inverters operating up to 20 kHz switching frequency. It features low VCE(sat) of 2.1 V at 85 A and Tj = 150 °C, integrated anti-parallel FRD with soft recovery (trr = 320 ns), and positive temperature coefficient for inherent current sharing.
For engineers reviewing the IRG7PH42UD1PBF datasheet, IRG7PH42UD1PBF pinout, IRG7PH42UD1PBF application, or IRG7PH42UD1PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat), short-circuit withstand time (10 µs), thermal resistance Rth(j-c) (0.4 K/W), gate charge QG (320 nC), and FRD reverse recovery behavior in hard-switched bridge topologies.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs Infineon's TrenchStop™ 7 technology with field-stop layer optimization for reduced conduction and switching losses. Its gate threshold voltage VGE(th) is 5.5 V (min) at 25 °C, enabling robust noise immunity in noisy industrial environments.
The integrated fast-recovery diode has forward voltage VF = 2.2 V at 85 A and exhibits soft, low-noise turn-off with peak reverse recovery dv/dt < 100 V/ns - critical for EMI-sensitive variable-frequency drives and UPS systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE max | 1200 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 800 V in three-phase 600 V AC input systems with 20% margin |
| IC cont @ Tc=25°C | 85 A - rated continuous collector current with heatsink at 25 °C case temperature |
| PD max | 313 W - maximum power dissipation at Tc = 25 °C, defining thermal design envelope |
| VCE(sat) | 2.1 V @ IC=85 A, VGE=15 V, Tj=150°C - directly determines conduction loss in inverter leg |
| tsc | 10 µs @ VCE=600 V, VGE=15 V, Tj=150°C - defines safe single-pulse short-circuit capability without desaturation protection |
| QG | 320 nC @ VGE=0–15 V - determines gate driver peak current requirement (≥4 A for 80 ns rise time) |
| Rth(j-c) | 0.4 K/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance, used to calculate die temperature from measured case temp |
Pinout & Package
TO-247AC package: 3-pin through-hole outline with isolated tab (collector connected to tab), standard lead spacing and creepage/clearance compliant for 1200 V systems.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (Tab) | Main high-side current path | Electrically connected to metal tab; requires insulated mounting and thermal interface to heatsink |
| Gate | Control terminal for MOS-controlled bipolar conduction | High-impedance input requiring low-inductance gate loop and negative turn-off bias (−5 V typical) for noise immunity |
| Emiter | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Shared emitter node for IGBT and integrated FRD; must be low-inductance connection to shunt/sense resistor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchStop™ 7 process | Enables simultaneous reduction of VCE(sat) and switching losses vs. prior generations |
| Integrated FRD with soft recovery | trr = 320 ns, softness factor ≥1.2 - reduces voltage overshoot and EMI in freewheeling paths |
| Positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient | Ensures natural current balancing in parallel-connected devices without external ballasting resistors |
| 10 µs short-circuit rating | Allows use in systems without active desaturation detection circuitry under defined test conditions |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Three-phase 400 V AC input inverter feeding 30–75 kW induction motors in HVAC and pump systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in inverter leg, operating at 8–16 kHz PWM with sinusoidal output filtering. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) and soft FRD reduce system conduction and switching losses by >12% vs. comparable 650 V IGBTs in same topology. | Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS with 400 V DC link supplying 230 V AC output to critical IT loads. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter-stage IGBT in full-bridge configuration, handling bidirectional energy flow during battery charging and grid backup modes. Use Value: 1200 V rating enables direct integration with high-voltage battery stacks (e.g., 360–400 V nominal), eliminating DC/DC stage. |
| Solar String Inverters | Induction Heating Systems |
Use Scenario: 10–25 kW string inverter converting PV DC output (600–1000 V) to grid-synchronized AC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in H-bridge output stage, switching at 12–18 kHz with unipolar modulation.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-bridge switch subjected to high di/dt (>1 kA/µs) and repetitive hard commutation events. Use Value: Soft-recovery FRD minimizes voltage spikes during zero-current switching transitions, reducing snubber stress and EMI filter size. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN75N120B3 | Higher VCE(sat) (2.4 V), lower QG (240 nC), no integrated diode | Requires external ultra-fast diode; better suited for resonant topologies with precise diode control | Prefer when discrete diode selection is needed for optimized recovery tail control |
| STMicroelectronics STGW100H12DLF | Same VCE/IC rating, higher tsc (12 µs), softer FRD (trr = 380 ns) | Better short-circuit robustness but slightly higher conduction loss | Prefer where extended fault-clearing time is required without desat detection |
Compared with IXGN75N120B3 and STGW100H12DLF, IRG7PH42UD1PBF offers the lowest conduction loss and integrated soft-recovery diode - optimal for space-constrained industrial inverters where board area and component count must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-emitter voltage for IRG7PH42UD1PBF?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V. For reliable operation, Infineon specifies VGE = +15 V for turn-on and −5 V to −8 V for turn-off. Exceeding +15 V increases leakage and risk of gate oxide degradation; insufficient negative bias raises susceptibility to false turn-on from dv/dt coupling in high-power layouts.
Does IRG7PH42UD1PBF require an external freewheeling diode?
No. IRG7PH42UD1PBF integrates a co-packaged fast-recovery diode with soft recovery characteristics (trr = 320 ns, softness factor ≥1.2). This eliminates the need for an external diode in standard inverter leg configurations, provided the diode's current and thermal ratings meet the application's freewheeling demands.
How does the 10 µs short-circuit rating translate to real-world protection requirements?
The 10 µs rating is measured under standardized lab conditions (VCE = 600 V, VGE = 15 V, Tj = 150 °C). In practice, this means the device can survive brief overcurrent events - such as motor stall or output short - only if external protection (e.g., fast desaturation detection with < 2 µs response) limits total fault duration well below 10 µs to prevent thermal runaway.
Can IRG7PH42UD1PBF be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient enables stable current sharing without external emitter resistors. Successful paralleling requires matched gate drive layout (identical trace length/inductance), symmetrical thermal mounting, and individual gate resistors (10–22 Ω) to damp oscillation. Derating to ≤70% of total rated current per device is recommended for long-term reliability.
