Product details

Overview

IRGB8B60KPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 28 A, 167 W N-channel IGBT in TO-220AB package, designed for high-efficiency hard-switching and resonant-mode power conversion in industrial motor drives and UPS systems.

For engineers reviewing the IRGB8B60KPBF datasheet, IRGB8B60KPBF pinout, IRGB8B60KPBF application, or IRGB8B60KPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include V_CE(sat) at 25 °C and 100 °C, gate charge Q_G, switching energy E_ON/E_OFF, and short-circuit withstand time t_SC.

Technical Context

This IGBT features a trench-stop structure with field-stop layer, enabling low conduction loss and fast switching. It integrates an anti-parallel ultrafast soft-recovery diode with 75 ns reverse recovery time and 120 A peak forward current capability.

The device operates with a gate-emitter threshold voltage V_GE(th) of 5.0 V (min) and supports ±20 V gate drive. Its short-circuit ruggedness is rated for 10 µs at 15 V V_GE, 400 V V_CE, and T_j = 150 °C.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CE max	600 V - supports DC bus up to 400 V AC input rectified systems with margin
I_C @ T_c=25°C	28 A - continuous collector current at case temperature 25 °C
P_D @ T_c=25°C	167 W - maximum power dissipation with heatsink at 25 °C case temp
V_CE(sat) @ I_C=28A	2.2 V (typ) - low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss in motor inverter legs
Q_G	120 nC - total gate charge determines required gate driver peak current
E_ON+E_OFF	1.9 mJ @ 400 V, 20 A - total switching energy per cycle at rated conditions
t_SC	10 µs - short-circuit safe operating time enables robust protection design

Pinout & Package

TO-220AB package with isolated tab, 3-pin through-hole mounting. Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Collector, Pin 3 = Emitter. Tab is electrically connected to Collector.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Pin 1 (G)	Gate terminal	Controls IGBT turn-on/turn-off; requires ≥±20 V absolute rating and 120 nC total charge
Pin 2 (C)	Collector terminal	High-side switching node; connected to heatsink tab; handles 600 V blocking
Pin 3 (E)	Emitter terminal	Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance layout critical

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Trench-stop IGBT structure	Reduces V_CE(sat) by ~15% vs planar IGBTs at same die size, improving efficiency
Integrated ultrafast diode	75 ns t_rr, soft recovery - minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI in freewheeling paths
10 µs short-circuit rating	Enables use without active desaturation detection in cost-sensitive industrial inverters
Isolated TO-220AB package	2500 V RMS isolation between tab and pins - eliminates need for insulating washer in many heatsink mounts

Applications

Industrial Motor Inverters

Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)

Use Scenario: 3-phase 0.75–2.2 kW variable-frequency drives for pumps and fans.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in inverter leg; operates at 8–16 kHz PWM frequency.

Use Value: Low V_CE(sat) and integrated diode reduce thermal stress and simplify layout versus discrete IGBT+diode solutions.

Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS with 1–3 kVA output capacity.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter-stage switch handling battery-to-AC conversion under load and bypass transitions.

Use Value: 10 µs short-circuit ruggedness allows reliable operation during grid fault transients without added protection circuitry.

Solar Microinverters

Induction Heating Systems

Use Scenario: Single-phase 250–350 W microinverters with transformerless topology.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: DC-link switching element in H-bridge output stage; commutated at 16–25 kHz.

Use Value: Soft-recovery diode limits dv/dt-induced shoot-through risk during zero-crossing switching.

Use Scenario: 2–5 kW resonant tank drivers for cooktop and industrial heating coils.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-bridge switch operating in ZVS mode at 20–100 kHz.

Use Value: Low switching energy (1.9 mJ) directly lowers heat generation in high-frequency resonant operation.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
STGP20NC60WD	600 V, 20 A, TO-220; higher V_CE(sat) (2.5 V), no integrated diode	Requires external ultrafast diode; lower current rating limits power scalability	Preferred where lower gate charge (75 nC) eases driver design and cost is primary constraint
IXGH24N60C3D1	600 V, 24 A, TO-247; 150 °C max T_j, 100 nC Q_G, integrated diode	Higher thermal capability but larger footprint; not drop-in compatible due to TO-247 package	Chosen when system-level thermal margin is insufficient with TO-220 and board space permits TO-247

Compared with STGP20NC60WD and IXGH24N60C3D1, IRGB8B60KPBF delivers optimal balance of current rating, integrated diode convenience, and TO-220AB thermal performance for mid-power industrial inverters where board area and BOM count are constrained.

FAQ

What is the maximum junction temperature for IRGB8B60KPBF?

The absolute maximum junction temperature is 175 °C, with continuous operation rated up to 150 °C. Derating is required above 100 °C ambient; thermal resistance R_thJC is 0.45 K/W, enabling 167 W dissipation only with adequate heatsinking at T_c ≤ 25 °C.

Does IRGB8B60KPBF require negative gate voltage for turn-off?

No - it operates reliably with 0 V gate-emitter voltage for turn-off. However, applying –5 V to –10 V improves noise immunity and ensures full depletion during high-dv/dt conditions, especially in multi-device parallel configurations or noisy EMI environments.

Can IRGB8B60KPBF be used in parallel configurations?

Yes, but with strict layout and gate drive matching: identical gate resistor values, symmetrical PCB traces, and Kelvin emitter connections are mandatory. The positive V_CE(sat) temperature coefficient enables current sharing, but mismatched thermal coupling can cause imbalance above 15 A per device.

Is the TO-220AB tab electrically isolated from the pins?

Yes - the TO-220AB package provides 2500 V RMS isolation between the collector-connected tab and all pins. This eliminates the need for insulating pads in many heatsink-mounting scenarios, though creepage/clearance must still comply with end-equipment safety standards.
