Product details
Overview
IRG7PH46UPBF from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 1200 V, 75 A (TC = 100°C), trench-gate field-stop IGBT in TO-247AC package, optimized for high-voltage hard-switching applications requiring low conduction loss and rugged RBSOA. It delivers VCE(on) = 1.7 V (typ., TJ = 25°C), 175°C max junction temperature, and full square RBSOA at 960 V with clamped inductive load capability up to 160 A.
For engineers reviewing the IRG7PH46UPBF datasheet, IRG7PH46UPBF pinout, IRG7PH46UPBF application, or IRG7PH46UPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1200 V blocking rating, 220–320 nC total gate charge, 0.32 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and verified performance in solar inverters and UPS systems operating above 600 V DC bus.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs trench-gate + field-stop structure to achieve low VCE(on) (1.7 V typ. @ 40 A, 15 VGE, 25°C) while maintaining positive temperature coefficient for stable parallel operation. Its square RBSOA supports reliable clamped inductive switching up to 160 A with VGE = 20 V drive.
Switching behavior is characterized by 45–65 ns turn-on delay, 40–55 ns rise time, and 410–445 ns turn-off delay at 25°C; at 175°C, Eoff rises to 3020 μJ (RG = 10 Ω), confirming thermal robustness for high-temperature industrial operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 1200 V - Enables use in 1000 V-class DC-link systems (e.g., solar string inverters, medium-voltage UPS). |
| IC @ TC = 100°C | 75 A - Continuous silicon-limited current at heatsink temperature of 100°C, defining practical thermal design limit. |
| VCE(on) (typ.) | 1.7 V @ 40 A, 15 VGE, 25°C - Low conduction loss enables >98% efficiency in 10–20 kHz hard-switched converters. |
| Eoff (typ.) | 1780 μJ @ 40 A, 600 V, 25°C - Quantifies energy dissipated during turn-off; critical for snubber and thermal sizing. |
| RθJC | 0.32 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance directly determines heatsink requirement for given power loss. |
| Qg | 220–320 nC - Total gate charge defines driver strength needed (e.g., ≥2 A peak for 100 ns switching). |
| TJ(max) | 175°C - Maximum allowable junction temperature supports operation in sealed enclosures or high ambient environments. |
Pinout & Package
IRG7PH46UPBF uses the industry-standard TO-247AC package (3-lead, isolated tab), with collector connected to the metal tab for direct heatsinking. Pin assignment follows standard IGBT layout: Gate (G), Collector (C), Emitter (E), with pin 1 = Gate, pin 2 = Collector, pin 3 = Emitter when viewed with leads down and marking side up.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Control input | Receives gate drive voltage (±30 V max); requires low-inductance path to minimize switching overshoot. |
| C | High-side power output | Connected to heatsink tab; carries full load current and must be electrically isolated from chassis unless system ground-referenced. |
| E | Power return / reference | Serves as emitter reference for gate drive; must be routed with minimal loop inductance to reduce voltage spikes during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low VCE(on) trench IGBT technology | 1.7 V typical saturation voltage reduces conduction losses by ~25% vs. planar IGBTs at same current density. |
| Square RBSOA | Rated for full 1200 V clamped inductive switching at 175°C junction temperature-enables reliable short-circuit handling without derating. |
| Positive VCE(on) temp. coefficient | Ensures inherent current sharing in parallel configurations without external ballasting resistors. |
| 100% ILM tested | Every unit validated for 160 A clamped inductive current-guarantees robustness in welding and UPS overload conditions. |
| Tight parameter distribution | Gate threshold voltage (3.0–6.0 V) and VCE(on) variation minimized-simplifies gate driver design and improves system consistency. |
Applications
| Solar Inverter | Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) |

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 | 1200 V/75 A, but higher VCE(on) (2.1 V typ.), lower Qg (180 nC), TO-247AD package (non-isolated tab) | Lacks full square RBSOA; rated only for 120 A ILM; not qualified for 175°C continuous operation | Prefer where gate drive power is constrained and heatsink isolation is not required. |
| STMicroelectronics STGW75H120DF | 1200 V/75 A, VCE(on) = 1.85 V (typ.), Qg = 240 nC, TO-247 long leads; includes integrated anti-parallel diode | Diode has higher VF (2.2 V) and slower recovery than discrete ultrafast diodes used with IRG7PH46UPBF | Choose when board space is limited and diode integration simplifies layout-accept trade-off in diode loss. |
Compared with IXGN75N120B3 and STGW75H120DF, IRG7PH46UPBF offers superior RBSOA margin and tighter VCE(on) distribution, making it preferred for mission-critical UPS and solar inverters where reliability under transient overload is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG = 10 Ω for switching loss characterization at TJ = 175°C. For hard-switched applications, RG ≤ 15 Ω is recommended to maintain safe dv/dt control and avoid shoot-through. Higher values (>22 Ω) increase Eoff significantly-measured rise from 1780 μJ to >3000 μJ at RG = 22 Ω per Figure 15.
Does IRG7PH46UPBF include an integrated freewheeling diode?
No. IRG7PH46UPBF is a standalone IGBT die in TO-247AC package with no integrated diode. External ultrafast or SiC Schottky diodes must be used in anti-parallel configuration. The device is optimized for pairing with diodes having < 50 ns reverse recovery time and low Qrr.
Can this IGBT be operated with ±15 V gate drive?
Yes. The absolute maximum VGE is ±30 V, and the datasheet characterizes VCE(on), switching times, and losses at VGE = +15 V / –15 V. Using –15 V turn-off bias improves noise immunity and reduces Miller-induced turn-on risk in high-dv/dt environments.
Is the TO-247AC package electrically isolated?
Yes. The TO-247AC variant features an electrically isolated metal tab (collector-connected), allowing direct mounting to a grounded heatsink without additional insulation. This differs from TO-247AD, where the tab is electrically connected to the collector lead and requires insulating hardware.
