Product details
Overview
IRGP4263-EPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 650 V, 90 A (TC = 25°C), insulated gate bipolar transistor in TO-247AD package with 1.7 V typical VCE(on) at 48 A and 15 V gate drive, designed for high-efficiency industrial motor drives and UPS inverters operating up to 175°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IRGP4263-EPBF datasheet, IRGP4263-EPBF pinout, IRGP4263-EPBF application, or IRGP4263-EPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5.5 µs short-circuit SOA, square RBSOA at 175°C, ±20 V gate rating, 100 nC typical total gate charge, and 0.5 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance - all critical for rugged hard-switching IGBT designs.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a trench-gate field-stop structure optimized for low conduction loss and controlled switching behavior. Its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient enables stable current sharing in parallel configurations, while the 175°C maximum junction temperature supports high-power density thermal design.
The device features a fully rated 192 A pulse collector current and clamped inductive load capability under VGE = 20 V, with validated RBSOA up to 520 V and SCSOA of 5.5 µs at VCC = 400 V and TJ = 150°C - confirming suitability for fault-tolerant inverter stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in 3-phase inverter topologies with margin for transients. |
| IC (TC = 100°C) | 60 A - Sustains continuous 60 A collector current at 100°C case temperature, enabling compact heatsink sizing. |
| VCE(on) typ. | 1.7 V @ 48 A, 15 V, 25°C - Delivers low conduction loss for >98% efficiency in 10–20 kHz motor drive applications. |
| Qg typ. | 100 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed control via external RG. |
| RθJC | 0.5 °C/W - Enables direct thermal path to heatsink with predictable junction temperature rise under 150 W dissipation. |
| tSC SOA | 5.5 µs @ TJ = 150°C - Supports robust hardware-based short-circuit protection without desaturation sensing delay. |
| Max TJ | +175°C - Allows operation in high-ambient environments (e.g., enclosed industrial cabinets) without derating. |
Pinout & Package
IRGP4263-EPBF uses the TO-247AD package - a 3-lead, isolated-tab variant with electrically insulated collector mounting surface, enabling direct heatsink attachment without insulating washer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control input | Receives voltage-controlled signal to modulate collector-emitter conduction; rated ±20 V max. |
| C (Collector) | High-side power terminal | Connects to DC bus or inverter leg output; electrically isolated tab allows direct heatsink mounting. |
| E (Emitter) | Power return / reference node | Serves as common emitter for gate drive reference and current sensing; low-inductance layout critical for dV/dt immunity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low VCE(on) and switching losses | 1.7 V saturation voltage + 2.6 mJ Eon/1.9 mJ Eoff at 48 A/400 V enables <1.5% inverter conduction+switching loss at 15 kHz. |
| Square RBSOA at 175°C | Validated safe operation up to 520 V and 192 A pulse ensures reliability during overvoltage events in regenerative braking. |
| Positive VCE(on) tempco | Enables natural current balancing across paralleled devices without active current-sharing circuitry. |
| 5.5 µs short-circuit SOA | Allows fixed-time hardware shutdown before thermal runaway, eliminating need for complex desat detection timing margins. |
| RoHS-compliant lead-free | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for standard reflow assembly without baking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN60N60C3 | 600 V, 60 A, TO-247, 2.2 V VCE(on), 120 nC Qg, 150°C TJ(max) | Lower voltage rating and reduced short-circuit withstand time (3 µs) | Preferred where lower cost and proven legacy design outweigh need for 650 V margin and 175°C operation. |
| STMicroelectronics STGW40H65DFB | 650 V, 40 A, TO-247, 1.6 V VCE(on), 85 nC Qg, 175°C TJ(max) | Lower current rating and no published RBSOA data above 400 V | Selected when system peak current stays below 40 A and gate drive power budget is constrained. |
Compared with IXGN60N60C3 and STGW40H65DFB, IRGP4263-EPBF uniquely combines 650 V rating, 90 A current capability, full 5.5 µs SCSOA, and 175°C operation - making it optimal for high-reliability, high-power-density industrial inverters where thermal headroom and fault tolerance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRGP4263-EPBF?
The absolute maximum continuous gate-to-emitter voltage is ±20 V. Exceeding this rating risks permanent gate oxide damage. Gate drive circuits must clamp negative spikes below –20 V and limit positive overshoot to ≤ +20 V, especially during fast turn-off with high di/dt.
Does IRGP4263-EPBF include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No - IRGP4263-EPBF is a discrete IGBT die only and does not integrate a freewheeling diode. External ultrafast soft-recovery diodes (e.g., IDP30E65D1) must be used in antiparallel configuration for inductive load commutation and regenerative energy handling.
How does the 5.5 µs short-circuit SOA translate to practical protection design?
The 5.5 µs rating means the device can safely withstand a hard short-circuit at VCC = 400 V and TJ = 150°C for up to 5.5 µs before thermal runaway. Protection circuits must detect overcurrent and disable gate drive within ≤4 µs to ensure margin, typically using desaturation detection with <1 µs propagation delay.
Can IRGP4263-EPBF be paralleled with other IGBTs for higher current capacity?
Yes - its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient ensures inherent current sharing. Successful paralleling requires matched gate drive impedance (<±5% RG), symmetrical PCB layout, identical heatsink contact pressure, and individual gate resistors to suppress oscillation. Derate total current by 15% for thermal imbalance margin.
