Product details

Overview

IRGBC20UD2 from Infineon Technologies is a co-packaged insulated gate bipolar transistor with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery diode in TO-220AB package, rated for 600 V V_CES, 13 A continuous collector current at 25°C, and 3.0 V V_CE(sat) at 6.5 A/15 V_GE. It delivers 0.43–0.65 mJ total switching loss at 25°C and supports >5 kHz operation in motor control inverters and UPS systems.

For engineers reviewing the IRGBC20UD2 datasheet, IRGBC20UD2 pinout, IRGBC20UD2 application, or IRGBC20UD2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its HEXFRED™ diode's 37–55 ns t_rr, 6.0 pF C_res, 16–22 nC Q_g, and thermal resistance of 2.1 °C/W (IGBT) and 3.5 °C/W (diode), critical for high-frequency hard-switching designs.

Technical Context

The IRGBC20UD2 integrates an N-channel IGBT and a soft-recovery diode in a single TO-220AB package, sharing common thermal and electrical paths. Its gate threshold voltage (3.0–5.5 V) and negative temperature coefficient (−11 mV/°C) enable stable turn-on across −55 to +150°C junction range.

Switching behavior is defined by 60 ns t_d(on), 29 ns t_r, 130–200 ns t_d(off), and 65–120 ns t_f at 25°C, with tail-current-inclusive E_on/E_off losses measured under 480 V V_CC, 6.5 A I_C, and 50 Ω gate resistance.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CES	600 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche, enabling use in 400 V DC bus applications with safety margin
I_C @ T_C = 25°C	13 A - continuous current capability with heatsink, defining base conduction rating at room case temperature
V_CE(sat)	≤3.0 V @ 6.5 A/15 V_GE - low saturation voltage reduces conduction loss and thermal stress in PWM inverters
E_ts	0.43–0.65 mJ @ 25°C - total switching energy per cycle, including IGBT tail and diode reverse recovery components
t_rr	37–55 ns @ 25°C - fast, soft diode recovery minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI in clamped-inductive switching
R_θJC (IGBT)	2.1 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct mounting to heatsink without isolation pad penalty
C_res	6.0 pF - low reverse transfer capacitance improves gate drive efficiency and dv/dt immunity

Pinout & Package

IRGBC20UD2 uses JEDEC TO-220AB package with isolated tab (collector connected to tab), three leads, and screw-mount mechanical interface. Thermal path optimized for flat, greased heatsink contact (R_θCS = 0.50 °C/W).

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Collector (Tab)	Main power output terminal / heat sink interface	Electrically tied to metal tab; requires insulating washer if mounted to grounded heatsink
Emitter	Power return path / reference node for gate drive	Serves as common source for IGBT and cathode for integrated diode; defines local ground reference
Gate	Control input for IGBT channel modulation	High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; requires 15 V drive for full saturation and <5.5 V for safe turn-off

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Co-packaged HEXFRED™ diode	Integrated soft-recovery diode eliminates discrete placement, reduces layout parasitics, and ensures matched thermal tracking
Switching-loss rating includes tail losses	Published E_on/E_off values account for full IGBT tail current and diode reverse recovery energy-no derating needed
Optimized for >5 kHz operation	Low Q_g (16–22 nC) and fast t_r/t_f support high-frequency PWM without excessive gate drive power
Ultra-low R_θJC (2.1 °C/W)	Enables higher power density in space-constrained motor drives by reducing required heatsink size

Applications

Industrial Motor Drives

Uninterruptible Power Supplies

Use Scenario: Three-phase inverter stage in 0.75–2.2 kW AC servo drives operating at 8–16 kHz PWM frequency.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in leg topology; handles bidirectional current during regeneration via integrated diode.

Use Value: Soft diode recovery limits voltage spikes during regenerative braking, reducing snubber component count and improving system reliability.

Use Scenario: DC-AC inverter stage in line-interactive UPS delivering 1 kVA output with battery backup.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in half-bridge configuration; conducts load current and recovers energy during dead-time commutation.

Use Value: Matched IGBT/diode thermal characteristics prevent thermal runaway during overload transients and ensure consistent SOA performance.

Induction Heating Systems

Welding Power Supplies

Use Scenario: Resonant inverter in 3–5 kW domestic induction cooktops using series-resonant topology at 20–50 kHz.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched power switch with zero-voltage switching assistance; diode conducts resonant tank current during half-cycle.

Use Value: Low C_res (6.0 pF) and fast t_rr reduce capacitive turn-on loss and improve ZVS margin across wide load variations.

Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in IGBT-based inverter welding machines delivering 200 A DC output with 50% duty cycle.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Pulse-width modulated main switch handling 100–500 A peak currents; integrated diode manages flyback energy during arc interruption.

Use Value: 52 A I_LM clamped inductive rating allows robust short-circuit withstand without external desaturation protection.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT-with-integrated-diode applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IRG4BC20KD	Same TO-220AB package, but slower diode (t_rr ≈ 100 ns), higher E_off (0.35 mJ), no HEXFRED™ softness	Less suitable for >10 kHz operation due to higher diode-induced voltage overshoot and EMI	Select when cost sensitivity outweighs high-frequency efficiency and EMI targets
FGA25N120ANTD	1200 V rating, higher V_CE(sat) (3.2 V), larger Q_g (45 nC), different pinout (tab = emitter)	Designed for higher bus voltages (800 V DC); not drop-in due to reversed tab polarity and gate drive requirements	Choose only for 1200 V systems requiring extended voltage margin and accepting higher conduction loss

Compared with IRG4BC20KD and FGA25N120ANTD, the IRGBC20UD2 uniquely balances 600 V rating, HEXFRED™ soft recovery, and low thermal resistance-making it optimal for compact, high-efficiency 400 V bus motor drives where diode-related losses dominate system efficiency.

FAQ

Is IRGBC20UD2 RoHS compliant and halogen-free?

Yes, IRGBC20UD2 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. The TO-220AB package uses lead-free matte tin plating on leads and complies with Infineon's Material Declaration Sheet 2022-0417.

What is the maximum allowable gate drive voltage and recommended gate resistor value?

The absolute maximum V_GE is ±20 V; operation above ±15 V risks gate oxide damage. For standard 480 V bus operation, a 50 Ω non-inductive gate resistor is recommended to balance switching speed (t_d(off) ≈ 130 ns) and oscillation damping.

Can IRGBC20UD2 be used in parallel configurations?

Parallel operation is not recommended due to positive temperature coefficient of V_CE(sat) being insufficient to ensure current sharing-measured ∆V_CE(sat)/∆T_J is only +0.69 V/°C, below the typical ≥1.0 V/°C threshold for stable paralleling without active balancing.

Does the integrated diode support bidirectional current in synchronous rectification mode?

No-the integrated diode is unidirectional and optimized for freewheeling, not synchronous rectification. Its forward voltage (1.4–1.7 V) and recovery characteristics are not designed for controlled turn-on; external MOSFETs are required for true synchronous operation.
