Product details
Overview
IRGB6B60KDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 10 A (TC = 100°C) insulated gate bipolar transistor with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode in TO-262 package. It delivers 1.8 V typical VCE(on), 10 μs short-circuit capability, and 70 ns diode reverse recovery time (trr) for motor control inverters operating at 15–20 kHz.
For engineers reviewing the IRGB6B60KDPBF datasheet, IRGB6B60KDPBF pinout, IRGB6B60KDPBF application, or IRGB6B60KDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include RBSOA robustness, clamped inductive load rating (26 A), low EMI due to ultrasoft diode recovery, and thermal resistance RθJC = 1.4 °C/W for IGBT section.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs non-punch-through (NPT) technology with positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient-enabling stable parallel operation-and features a monolithically integrated diode with 90–175 μJ reverse recovery energy (Erec) and <14 A peak reverse recovery current (Irr) at 150°C.
Its square reverse bias safe operating area (RBSOA) supports 600 V DC bus applications with inductive switching, while 10 μs short-circuit withstand time at TJ = 150°C enables reliable overcurrent protection in variable-frequency drives without external desaturation detection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - Supports 400 V AC input rectified bus with 50% voltage margin for surge immunity. |
| IC @ TC = 100°C | 10 A - Continuous output current capability in thermally constrained heatsink designs. |
| VCE(on) typ. | 1.8 V @ IC = 5 A, VGE = 15 V - Enables <10 W conduction loss at 5 A, reducing heatsink size. |
| trr | 70–80 ns - Ultrafast soft recovery minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI in hard-switched inverters. |
| Eoff | 135–245 μJ @ TJ = 25°C - Low turn-off loss supports 15–20 kHz PWM frequency without excessive snubber loss. |
| RθJC (IGBT) | 1.4 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to heatsink with predictable junction-to-case thermal path. |
| Short Circuit Withstand | 10 μs @ TJ = 150°C - Allows time for controller-based fault shutdown in motor phase-leg protection. |
Pinout & Package
IRGB6B60KDPBF uses a TO-262 (Straight Lead) package with 3 terminals: Collector (tab), Gate, and Emitter. The metal tab is electrically connected to the collector and serves as primary thermal path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (Tab) | Main high-side power terminal | Electrically tied to heatsink; requires insulating pad if heatsink is grounded; carries full load current. |
| Gate | Control input | High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; requires 15 V drive for full saturation; ±20 V absolute max rating. |
| Emitter | Power return and reference node | Common return for IGBT and diode; must be low-inductance connection to minimize switching oscillation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrasoft diode recovery | trr = 70–80 ns, Irr = 10–14 A, Erec = 90–175 μJ - Reduces voltage spikes and EMI in hard-switched motor drives. |
| Square RBSOA | Rated for 600 V × 10 A DC with no second breakdown limit - Enables reliable operation under inductive turn-off stress. |
| 10 μs short-circuit capability | Validated at TJ = 150°C - Provides deterministic fault window for microcontroller-based protection logic. |
| Positive VCE(on) tempco | Increases with junction temperature - Enables natural current sharing in paralleled devices without external ballasting. |
| Low VF diode | 1.25–1.45 V @ IF = 5 A - Reduces freewheeling conduction loss compared to standard FRD alternatives. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switch with integrated diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRG4PH60UD | 600 V, 12 A, TO-247; higher Qg (35 nC vs. 18.2 nC); slower tr/tf; no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; better for lower-frequency (<10 kHz), higher-current designs | Choose when higher continuous current rating is needed and external diode layout is acceptable. |
| STGP10NC60KD | 600 V, 10 A, TO-220; similar VCE(on) (1.8 V); 100 ns trr; RθJC = 2.0 °C/W (worse thermal performance) | Lower power density; limited to <8 A continuous at 100°C case; less robust RBSOA | Choose only for cost-sensitive, low-power, non-parallel applications where thermal margin is ample. |
Compared with IRG4PH60UD and STGP10NC60KD, IRGB6B60KDPBF offers superior thermal efficiency (1.4 vs. ≥2.0 °C/W), integrated diode convenience, and faster soft recovery-making it optimal for compact, high-frequency motor drives requiring low EMI and parallel scalability.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate resistor value recommended for reliable switching?
For 15 V gate drive and 5 A collector current, a 100 Ω gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for switching characterization. Using >150 Ω increases turn-on/turn-off times beyond 300 ns, risking increased Etot and thermal stress; values below 47 Ω may cause gate ringing without proper PCB layout.
Can IRGB6B60KDPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient and square RBSOA enable stable current sharing. Design requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical layout, and shared heatsink with uniform thermal coupling; derating to ≤8 A per device is recommended for 150°C operation.
Is the integrated diode rated for continuous freewheeling current?
Yes-the diode supports 10 A continuous forward current at TC = 100°C (same as IGBT), with VF = 1.25–1.45 V at 5 A. Its ultrasoft recovery prevents destructive reverse recovery current spikes during forced commutation in inverter legs.
What is the minimum gate voltage required to achieve full saturation?
A minimum VGE of 15 V is required to ensure VCE(on) ≤ 2.2 V at IC = 5 A and TJ = 25°C. At 150°C junction temperature, VGE(th) drops to ~3.5 V, but 15 V drive maintains sufficient overdrive margin to prevent linear-mode operation under thermal stress.
