Product details
Overview
IRG7PH46UDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 1200 V, 40 A, 390 W trench gate field-stop IGBT in TO-247AC package, designed for high-voltage switching in industrial motor drives and UPS systems. It features low saturation voltage (VCE(sat) = 2.1 V @ IC = 40 A, Tj = 150 °C), fast turn-off time (tf = 180 ns), and positive temperature coefficient for parallel operation.
For engineers reviewing the IRG7PH46UDPBF datasheet, IRG7PH46UDPBF pinout, IRG7PH46UDPBF application, or IRG7PH46UDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1200 V blocking capability, 40 A continuous collector current rating, thermal performance under forced-air cooling, and gate charge (QG = 120 nC) for driver sizing.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs Infineon's TrenchStop™ 7 technology with field-stop layer optimization to achieve balanced conduction and switching losses. Its gate threshold voltage (VGE(th) = 5.5 V) ensures robust noise immunity, and the short-circuit withstand time (tSC = 10 µs @ 15 V VGE, Tj = 150 °C) supports protection circuit design in high-reliability inverters.
The device integrates an anti-parallel ultrafast soft-recovery diode with reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 1.9 µC) and peak reverse recovery current (IRRM = 45 A), enabling efficient freewheeling in bridge-leg configurations without external diode addition.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 1200 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche breakdown; enables use in 690 V AC three-phase systems with 2× DC bus margin. |
| IC (cont) | 40 A @ Tc = 80 °C - continuous collector current rating at case temperature; defines heatsink sizing for steady-state operation. |
| VCE(sat) | 2.1 V @ IC = 40 A, VGE = 15 V, Tj = 150 °C - low on-state loss directly reduces conduction heating in motor drive output stages. |
| Eoff | 2.3 mJ @ IC = 40 A, VCE = 600 V, RG = 22 Ω, Tj = 150 °C - quantifies energy dissipated during turn-off; critical for snubber and thermal design. |
| QG | 120 nC - total gate charge; determines required peak gate driver current (e.g., >5.4 A for 22 ns rise time). |
| tf | 180 ns @ IC = 40 A, VCE = 600 V, RG = 22 Ω - fast fall time enables higher PWM frequencies up to 20 kHz with controlled EMI. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-247AC - industry-standard 3-pin through-hole power package with isolated tab, rated for 390 W dissipation at Tc = 80 °C and compatible with standard mounting hardware and insulating washers.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side power terminal | Connected to DC+ bus in half-bridge; carries full load current and must be routed with low-inductance layout. |
| Gate (G) | Control input for MOS-controlled IGBT channel | Requires low-impedance gate driver path; sensitive to ringing; needs 15 V ±10 % bias for reliable turn-on/turn-off. |
| Emitter (E) | Power return and reference node | Serves as common emitter for gate drive reference; must be low-inductance connection to minimize VGE disturbance during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TrenchStop™ 7 silicon technology | Enables simultaneous reduction of VCE(sat) and Eoff versus prior generations, improving efficiency in 10–20 kHz motor control. |
| Integrated ultrafast diode | Eliminates need for discrete antiparallel diode; soft recovery (trr = 120 ns) reduces voltage overshoot and EMI in inductive loads. |
| Positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient | Ensures inherent current sharing when paralleling multiple devices, simplifying thermal management in high-power modules. |
| 10 µs short-circuit ruggedness | Supports implementation of desaturation detection circuits without external current-sense resistors in compact inverter designs. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter stage in 30–50 kVA variable-frequency drives for HVAC compressors and pumps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switching element in six-pack IGBT module configuration; switched at 8–16 kHz with dead-time control. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) reduces conduction loss by ~15 % vs. comparable 1200 V IGBTs, lowering heatsink mass and fan power. | Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS output inverter delivering clean 230 V / 50 Hz sine wave to critical IT loads. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Output stage switch handling bidirectional energy flow during battery backup mode; operated with sinusoidal PWM. Use Value: Integrated diode with low Qrr minimizes reverse recovery loss during zero-crossing commutation, improving system efficiency by 0.8 % at full load. |
| Solar String Inverters | Induction Heating Systems |
Use Scenario: DC–AC conversion stage in 10–25 kW string inverters interfacing PV arrays to grid. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in H-bridge topology; modulated at 16–20 kHz to suppress audible noise and reduce filter size. Use Value: Fast tf and low Eoff enable stable operation at 20 kHz while maintaining junction temperature <140 °C under natural convection. | Use Scenario: Resonant half-bridge in 15–30 kW induction cooktops and industrial heating generators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched resonant switch operating near zero-voltage switching (ZVS) boundary; requires precise timing control. Use Value: Tight VGE(th) distribution (±0.5 V) ensures consistent turn-on delay across units, critical for phase-matched bridge operation. |
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 IXGN40N120B3 | Higher VCE(sat) (2.4 V), lower QG (95 nC), no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; better suited for ZVS-resonant topologies where gate drive loss dominates | Select if gate driver power budget is constrained and external diode integration is acceptable. |
| STMicroelectronics STGW40H120F2 | Same VCES/IC, but slower tf (280 ns), higher Eoff (3.1 mJ) | Lower switching frequency limit (~12 kHz); preferred in cost-sensitive industrial drives with relaxed EMI requirements | Select when thermal margin allows larger heatsink and system EMI filtering is already optimized. |
Compared with IXGN40N120B3 and STGW40H120F2, IRG7PH46UDPBF delivers superior conduction efficiency and integrated diode convenience at the expense of slightly higher gate drive demand-making it optimal for space-constrained, forced-air-cooled motor drives requiring ≤20 kHz operation.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-emitter voltage for IRG7PH46UDPBF?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V. Operation above +15 V increases risk of gate oxide degradation over time, while below +12 V may cause incomplete turn-on and elevated VCE(sat). Infineon specifies +15 V for nominal turn-on and −5 V to −8 V for active Miller clamping during turn-off to prevent false triggering.
Does IRG7PH46UDPBF require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No, IRG7PH46UDPBF achieves reliable turn-off with 0 V gate drive, but using −5 V to −8 V improves noise immunity and reduces turn-off delay dispersion. Negative bias is recommended in high-dv/dt environments such as multi-level inverters or systems with shared gate driver ground planes.
Can IRG7PH46UDPBF be paralleled with other IGBTs for higher current capacity?
Yes-its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient enables stable current sharing. Successful paralleling requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling via shared heatsink. Derating to 80 % of total rated current per device is advised for long-term reliability.
Is the integrated diode in IRG7PH46UDPBF suitable for regenerative braking in motor drives?
Yes-the ultrafast soft-recovery diode supports bidirectional current flow and handles reverse recovery during regenerative events. Its 10 µs short-circuit rating and 45 A IRRM allow safe operation during dynamic braking transients without external diode supplementation.
