Product details
Overview
IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 15 A insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) in TO-220AB package with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode, VCE(on) = 1.8 V @ 15 A/15 V, 10 µs short-circuit capability, and square RBSOA - deployed in motor drive inverters for HVAC compressors and industrial servo amplifiers.
For engineers reviewing the IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF datasheet, IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF pinout, IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF application, or IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(on) temperature coefficient, diode reverse recovery energy (Erec = 540–720 µJ), clamped inductive load rating (ILM = 62 A), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.6 °C/W for IGBT).
Technical Context
This IGBT employs non-punch-through (NPT) technology with positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient and ultra-soft diode recovery (trr = 92–111 ns, Irr = 29–33 A), enabling stable parallel operation and low EMI in hard-switched 3-phase inverter legs.
It delivers full-square RBSOA up to 600 V and supports 10 µs short-circuit withstand at TJ = 150 °C with VGE = 15 V, while its integrated diode features low VF (1.20–1.45 V @ 15 A) and low Qrr, critical for regenerative braking and bidirectional power flow in motor control.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 3-phase 400 VAC input inverters with 2× safety margin. |
| IC @ TC = 100 °C | 15 A - Continuous current rating under real-world heatsink conditions in enclosed drives. |
| VCE(on) | 1.80 V typ. @ 15 A, 15 V - Low conduction loss enabling >98% inverter efficiency at rated load. |
| Eoff | 490–600 µJ @ TJ = 150 °C - Quantified turn-off loss used for thermal design of snubberless 16 kHz PWM stages. |
| RθJC (IGBT) | 0.6 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to aluminum heatsinks without thermal interface pads in compact modules. |
| tsc | 10 µs - Short-circuit robustness allows use without fast desaturation protection in cost-sensitive designs. |
| Erec | 540–720 µJ - Diode reverse recovery energy directly impacts switching loss and EMI in freewheeling intervals. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (electrically connected to collector), standard 3-pin layout: Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Collector (tab), Pin 3 = Emitter.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 15 V logic-level gate drive; requires ≤22 Ω series resistance to limit dV/dt-induced shoot-through. |
| Pin 2 (Collector / Tab) | High-side power output | Electrically tied to metal tab - must be mounted to heatsink with electrically insulating thermal pad or mica washer. |
| Pin 3 (Emitter) | Power return path | Serves as common reference for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance PCB routing essential for stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft-recovery diode | trr = 92–111 ns with <10% Irr overshoot - reduces voltage spikes and EMI during freewheeling in PMSM drives. |
| Square RBSOA | Full-rated 600 V blocking at IC = 15 A up to 150 °C - enables reliable operation under transient overvoltage without derating. |
| Positive VCE(on) tempco | +1.2 mV/°C - ensures inherent current sharing when paralleling multiple devices without external ballasting resistors. |
| 10 µs short-circuit capability | Validated at VCC = 600 V, TJ = 150 °C - eliminates need for complex desat detection circuitry in basic inverter protection schemes. |
| Low diode VF | 1.20–1.45 V @ 15 A - cuts conduction loss by ~30% vs. standard FRD in regenerative braking cycles. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT-inverter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRG4PH50UD-EP | VCE(on) = 2.2 V @ 15 A (higher conduction loss); RθJC = 0.85 °C/W (worse thermal performance) | Lacks integrated soft diode - requires external ultrafast diode for low EMI | Prefer where gate drive voltage tolerance >15 V is needed; avoid in space-constrained motor modules. |
| STGP15H60DF | VCE(on) = 1.95 V @ 15 A; trr = 120 ns (slower diode recovery); Erec = 950 µJ (higher loss) | Diode exhibits higher reverse recovery overshoot - increases snubber requirements in high-dV/dt environments | Acceptable for lower-frequency (<10 kHz) inverters where EMI filtering budget allows larger chokes. |
Compared with IRG4PH50UD-EP and STGP15H60DF, IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF delivers superior thermal efficiency (0.6 °C/W), lower switching loss (Etot = 835–1070 µJ @ 150 °C), and tighter diode recovery control - making it optimal for compact, high-PWM-frequency motor drives requiring minimal EMI mitigation.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20 V. Operation above +15 V or below –5 V risks gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for turn-on and –5 V to –8 V for turn-off to ensure fast, robust switching and prevent Miller-induced false turn-on during high dV/dt transitions.
Does IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF require an external freewheeling diode?
No. It integrates an ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode rated for 31 A continuous forward current at 25 °C and 15 A at 100 °C. This diode is optimized for low Erec and low VF, eliminating the need for discrete diodes in standard inverter topologies.
Can IRGB15B60KDPBF-INF be paralleled with identical units?
Yes - its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient and square RBSOA enable stable current sharing. Designers must match gate drive loop inductance (<10 nH) and use symmetrical PCB layouts; no external emitter resistors are required for balancing at ≤15 A per device.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 16 kHz PWM in a 400 VDC bus application?
A 22 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for 16 kHz operation with VCC = 400 V, yielding td(off) = 203–226 ns and Eoff = 490–600 µJ at TJ = 150 °C. Lower values (15–18 Ω) may be used if EMI filtering permits faster switching and reduced total loss.
