Product details
Overview
IRGP30B120KDPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 1200 V, 60 A (TC = 25°C) insulated gate bipolar transistor with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode in TO-247AD package. It delivers VCE(on) = 2.28 V (typ.) at IC = 25 A, 15 VGE, 25°C; 10 μs short-circuit capability; and square RBSOA - optimized for motor control inverters, industrial UPS, and solar string inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRGP30B120KDPBF datasheet, IRGP30B120KDPBF pinout, IRGP30B120KDPBF application, or IRGP30B120KDPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(on) temperature coefficient, diode reverse recovery energy (Erec = 1820–2400 μJ), RBSOA robustness, gate charge (Qg = 169–254 nC), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.42°C/W for IGBT).
Technical Context
This NPT (Non-Punch-Through) IGBT employs low-VCE(on) technology with positive temperature coefficient for stable parallel operation and inherent current limiting. Its co-packaged diode features ultra-soft recovery (trr = 300 ns, Irr = 34–38 A) and low forward voltage (VF = 1.76 V typ. @ 25 A, 25°C), minimizing switching losses and EMI in hard-switched topologies.
The device supports full-square RBSOA up to 1000 V and 120 A, with validated short-circuit safe operating area (SCSOA) of 10 μs at VCC = 900 V and TJ = 150°C. Gate drive requirements are defined by Qge = 19–29 nC and Qgc = 82–123 nC, enabling predictable turn-on/turn-off timing with Rg = 5 Ω.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 1200 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 1200 V in industrial and renewable energy systems |
| IC (TC = 25°C) | 60 A - Sustains continuous output current for 15–20 kW motor drives without forced cooling |

Pinout & Package
IRGP30B120KDPBF uses the extended-lead TO-247AD package - a 3-terminal through-hole power package with isolated mounting hole, optimized for high-voltage isolation and mechanical stability in industrial modules.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side current path | Connected to DC+ bus; rated for 1200 V blocking and 120 A pulsed current |
| Gate (G) | Control input for IGBT channel | Requires ±20 V absolute max; 19–29 nC gate-emitter charge defines drive strength needs |
| Emitter (E) | Common reference for IGBT and diode | Serves as return path for both IGBT collector current and diode forward current; internal emitter inductance = 13 nH |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft-recovery diode | trr = 300 ns, Irr = 34–38 A, Erec = 1820–2400 μJ - reduces voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling |
| Square RBSOA | Validated up to 1000 V, 120 A, 100 μs - enables reliable operation under transient overvoltage conditions |
| Positive VCE(on) tempco | +1.2 mV/°C increase per °C junction rise - ensures natural current sharing in paralleled configurations |
| Low VF diode | 1.76 V (typ. @ 25 A, 25°C) - cuts conduction loss by ~15% vs. standard FRD in same package |
| Extended lead TO-247AD | Lead length ≥ 4.5 mm - improves creepage distance and simplifies PCB layout for 1200 V isolation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN30N120B3 | 1200 V, 30 A, TO-247; lower IC rating but higher VCE(on) (2.7 V typ.), no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; suitable only for lower-current (<15 kW) designs with discrete diode layout control | Select when discrete diode optimization is prioritized over integration and thermal coupling |
| STMicroelectronics STGW30H120DF | 1200 V, 30 A, TO-247; includes soft-recovery diode but higher Erec (3200 μJ) and trr (450 ns) | Higher diode losses limit use in high-frequency (>15 kHz) solar inverters where EMI is critical | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial drives where diode softness is secondary to gate drive simplicity |
Compared with IXGN30N120B3 and STGW30H120DF, IRGP30B120KDPBF uniquely combines 60 A current rating, integrated ultra-soft diode (Erec < 2400 μJ), and NPT-based positive VCE(on) tempco - making it optimal for high-power, high-reliability motor and solar inverters requiring parallel operation and minimal snubbing.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for IRGP30B120KDPBF?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V, with recommended operating range of –10 V to +15 V. Exceeding +15 V increases risk of gate oxide degradation, while negative bias below –10 V may cause unintended turn-on due to Miller effect during high dv/dt transitions.
Does IRGP30B120KDPBF require an external freewheeling diode?
No - it integrates a co-packaged ultrafast soft-recovery diode rated for 30 A continuous forward current (TC = 100°C) and 120 A pulsed current. The diode shares the same thermal path and exhibits matched temperature behavior with the IGBT, eliminating need for separate diode selection or thermal design.
How does the 10 μs short-circuit capability translate to real-world protection?
The 10 μs SCSOA rating means the device can withstand rated collector current at full VCE = 900 V for 10 μs before thermal runaway occurs. This allows time for fast-acting desaturation detection circuits (e.g., using DESAT pins on gate drivers) to trigger shutdown without device destruction.
Can IRGP30B120KDPBF be paralleled reliably without active current balancing?
Yes - its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient (+1.2 mV/°C) causes current to naturally redistribute toward cooler devices during thermal transients. Combined with matched gate charge and low internal emitter inductance (13 nH), this enables stable parallel operation with passive gate resistors and symmetrical layout.
