Product details
Overview
IRGC75B120UB from Infineon is a 1200 V, 75 A discrete IGBT in TO-247 package with TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT3 technology, VCE(sat) = 2.1 V (typ. @ Tj = 25°C), VGE(th) = 5.0–6.5 V, and rated for continuous operation up to 150°C junction temperature - designed for high-efficiency industrial motor drives and UPS inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRGC75B120UB datasheet, IRGC75B120UB pinout, IRGC75B120UB application, or IRGC75B120UB equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1200 V blocking capability, soft-switching performance with low tail current, and compatibility with standard gate drivers in hard-switched three-phase bridge topologies.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs Infineon's TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT3 process with field-stop and trench-gate structure, delivering optimized trade-offs between conduction loss (VCE(sat)) and switching speed (tr, tf). It features a positive temperature coefficient for VCE(sat), enabling inherently stable parallel operation without current-sharing resistors.
The device is specified for operation up to 150°C junction temperature and exhibits soft reverse recovery characteristics when paired with an ultra-soft anti-parallel diode - critical for reducing voltage overshoot and EMI in high-dv/dt applications like servo drives and welding inverters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE(max) | 1200 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 800 V in 3-level NPC or 600 V in 2-level inverters with 2× safety margin. |
| IC(max) | 75 A - continuous collector current rating at Tc = 25°C, derates to ~45 A at Tc = 80°C per thermal design. |
| VCE(sat) | 2.1 V (typ.) - low conduction loss enables <1.5 W static loss at 50 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| VGE(th) | 5.0–6.5 V - wide threshold range ensures robust noise immunity and predictable turn-on timing with ±15 V gate drive. |
| Tj(max) | 150 °C - extended thermal rating allows higher power density and reduced derating in compact industrial enclosures. |
| tr/tf | Not specified in catalog - requires datasheet verification; typical IGBT3 devices show tr ≈ 45 ns, tf ≈ 120 ns at IC = 37.5 A, VGE = ±15 V. |
Pinout & Package
IRGC75B120UB is housed in a TO-247-3L package with isolated mounting flange. The package provides 2.5 kV isolation rating and 0.45 K/W typical thermal resistance (Rth(j-c)) under standard heatsink conditions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side power terminal | Connected to DC+ bus in half-bridge; carries full load current and withstands full VCE stress. |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives ±15 V logic-level signal; requires 100–500 nF gate capacitance (Cies = 4.9 nF) for stable switching. |
| Emiter (E) | Power return and reference node | Serves as common source for gate drive return path; must be low-inductance connection to minimize ringing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TRENCHSTOP™ IGBT3 technology | Combines trench gate + field-stop layer for 20% lower VCE(sat) vs. IGBT2 at same chip area and improved short-circuit ruggedness. |
| Positive VCE(sat) tempco | Enables natural current balancing in paralleled configurations without external emitter resistors or active sensing. |
| Soft-switching behavior | Low tail current and controlled fall time reduce switching losses and dv/dt-induced EMI in hard-switched topologies. |
| 150°C max junction temperature | Supports higher ambient operating temperatures in enclosed cabinets and extends lifetime under thermal cycling stress. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN75N120B3 | 1200 V / 75 A, VCE(sat) = 2.3 V (typ.), Rth(j-c) = 0.55 K/W, TO-247-3L | Higher VCE(sat) increases conduction loss by ~0.4 W at 50 A; slightly lower thermal performance. | Preferred where proven field reliability with IXYS gate drive compatibility is prioritized over minimal loss reduction. |
| STMicroelectronics STGW75H120DF2 | 1200 V / 75 A, VCE(sat) = 2.15 V (typ.), includes integrated fast-recovery anti-parallel diode, TO-247-4L | Integrated diode eliminates discrete diode layout complexity but adds 0.5 V forward drop penalty vs. ultra-soft external diodes. | Recommended for space-constrained designs where board area savings outweigh marginal conduction loss increase. |
Compared with IXGN75N120B3 and STGW75H120DF2, IRGC75B120UB offers the lowest VCE(sat) and best thermal resistance among 1200 V/75 A TO-247 IGBTs, making it optimal for thermally constrained, high-efficiency industrial inverters requiring maximum power density.

FAQ
What gate drive voltage is recommended for IRGC75B120UB?
Infineon specifies ±15 V gate drive (VGE = +15 V for turn-on, –15 V for turn-off) to ensure full enhancement, minimize switching losses, and prevent accidental turn-on due to dv/dt coupling. Gate resistor values should be selected to limit peak gate current to <±10 A while achieving desired tr/tf.
Does IRGC75B120UB include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No. IRGC75B120UB is a discrete IGBT without an integrated freewheeling diode. It requires an external ultra-soft recovery diode - such as Infineon's IDP100E120, IDP150E120, or similar - to handle reactive current in inductive loads and enable bidirectional energy flow in inverter bridges.
What is the short-circuit withstand time for IRGC75B120UB?
Per Infineon's IGBT3 product documentation, IRGC75B120UB has a typical short-circuit withstand time of 10 µs at VCE = 600 V, VGE = 15 V, and Tj = 150°C. This rating assumes proper gate drive clamping and desaturation detection circuitry to disable the device before thermal runaway occurs.
Can IRGC75B120UB be paralleled with other IGBTs for higher current capacity?
Yes. Its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient ensures inherent current sharing across paralleled units. Successful parallel operation requires matched gate drive loop inductance, symmetrical main current paths, and identical thermal mounting conditions to maintain <±5°C junction temperature delta between devices.
