Product details
Overview
IRGB4061DPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 18 A (TC = 100°C), n-channel insulated gate bipolar transistor with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery co-pack diode in TO-220AB package. It delivers VCE(on) = 1.65 V (typ.) at 15 V gate drive and 25°C, supports 5 μs short-circuit SOA, and operates up to TJ(max) = 175°C - enabling high-efficiency motor drives and industrial inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRGB4061DPBF datasheet, IRGB4061DPBF pinout, IRGB4061DPBF application, or IRGB4061DPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its trench IGBT architecture, square RBSOA, 100% 4× rated current (ILM) testing, tight parameter distribution, and co-pack diode's 100 ns reverse recovery time at 175°C.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses trench-gate field-stop technology to achieve low conduction loss and controlled tail current, enabling efficient operation across 1–20 kHz switching frequencies in hard-switched topologies. Its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient ensures stable current sharing in parallel configurations.
The integrated ultrafast soft-recovery diode features Erec = 260 μJ and trr = 100 ns at TJ = 175°C, minimizing voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling. The device meets full square RBSOA up to 600 V and supports 5 μs short-circuit withstand under VCC = 400 V, RG = 22 Ω conditions.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STGW40H65DFB | 650 V/40 A, higher IC rating but 2.1 V VCE(on) (typ.), no co-pack diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; better suited for higher-current, lower-frequency (<5 kHz) applications | Select when higher current headroom is needed and discrete diode integration is acceptable |
| IXYS IXGN50N60B3 | 600 V/50 A, 2.2 V VCE(on), 10 μs SC SOA, no integrated diode | Larger die size increases switching loss; requires separate diode and more complex gate drive | Prefer for legacy designs requiring proven reliability at 175°C, but adds BOM and layout complexity |
Compared with STGW40H65DFB and IXGN50N60B3, IRGB4061DPBF offers superior conduction efficiency (1.65 V vs. ≥2.1 V), integrated diode simplification, and tighter parameter spread - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, space-constrained 3–5 kW industrial inverters where thermal margin and EMI control are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRGB4061DPBF?
The absolute maximum continuous gate-to-emitter voltage is ±20 V, with transient rating up to ±30 V for ≤100 ns pulses. Exceeding ±20 V continuously risks gate oxide degradation; recommended gate drive is +15 V / –5 V to ensure reliable turn-on and fast, low-loss turn-off.
Does IRGB4061DPBF require an external freewheeling diode?
No - IRGB4061DPBF integrates an ultrafast soft-recovery co-pack diode rated for 18 A continuous forward current at TC = 100°C. This eliminates the need for an external diode in standard half-bridge or inverter leg configurations, reducing component count and layout complexity.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case for the IGBT portion?
The typical thermal resistance from junction to case (RθJC) for the IGBT is 0.73 °C/W, measured under steady-state conditions. This value enables 103 W power dissipation at TC = 100°C and is validated via JEDEC JESD51-14 transient dual-interface testing.
How does the 5 μs short-circuit SOA impact system protection design?
The 5 μs short-circuit withstand capability allows time for overcurrent detection and shutdown without device failure. When paired with a gate driver featuring <1 μs response (e.g., Infineon 1ED020I12FA), it enables robust protection using simple current-sense resistor + comparator - eliminating need for complex desaturation circuits.
