Product details
Overview
IRGP6690D-EPBF from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 600 V, 140 A (TC = 25°C) insulated gate bipolar transistor with integrated ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode in TO-247AD package. It delivers 1.65 V typical VCE(on) at 75 A/15 VGE/25°C, 5 µs short-circuit SOA, and 175°C max junction temperature-designed for high-power welding inverters and H-bridge motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the IRGP6690D-EPBF datasheet, IRGP6690D-EPBF pinout, IRGP6690D-EPBF application, or IRGP6690D-EPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include clamped inductive load current (300 A), RθJC(IGBT) = 0.31 °C/W, diode reverse recovery time (90 ns @ 175°C), square RBSOA up to 600 V, and gate charge (140 nC) for optimized hard-switching efficiency.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs a trench-gate field-stop structure with an optimized co-packaged diode exhibiting low QRR (typ. 140 nC) and soft recovery (IRR = 26 A, trr = 90 ns). Its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient enables stable parallel operation without current-sharing resistors.
The device supports full-bridge hard switching at 40 kHz with 241 W power dissipation at TC = 100°C and meets 5 µs short-circuit withstand capability under VCC = 400 V, VGE = 15 V, and TJ = 150°C-critical for arc stability in industrial welding systems.
Key Specifications

| RθJC (IGBT) | 0.31 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance defining heatsink interface requirements for 483 W max dissipation. |
| Qg | 140 nC - Total gate charge determining gate driver peak current (≥14 A for 10 Ω RG) and switching speed control. |
| trr (Diode) | 90 ns @ 175°C - Reverse recovery time limiting diode commutation losses and EMI in hard-switched bridges. |
Pinout & Package
IRGP6690D-EPBF uses the TO-247AD package-a 3-pin through-hole variant with isolated tab (collector connected to case), optimized for high-voltage isolation and mechanical mounting torque (1.1 N·m).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side power terminal | Electrically bonded to metal tab; requires insulated mounting hardware and thermal interface material. |
| Gate (G) | Control input for IGBT channel | High-impedance MOS-controlled terminal; sensitive to ESD and requires <±20 V gate drive compliance. |
| Emitter (E) | Power return and reference node | Serves as common source for both IGBT and anti-parallel diode; critical for low-inductance emitter layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultrafast soft-recovery diode | 90 ns trr, 26 A IRR, and low Erec (210 µJ) minimize switching stress and EMI in bridge-leg commutation. |
| Square RBSOA | Rated for 300 A clamped inductive load at 600 V, supporting full-bridge operation without derating at high VCE. |
| Positive VCE(on) tempco | Enables natural current sharing in parallel configurations without external balancing resistors or active control. |
| 5 µs short-circuit SOA | Guaranteed withstand time under fault conditions allows implementation of simple, reliable overcurrent protection. |

| IXYS IXGN120N60B3 | 600 V / 120 A, 2.1 V VCE(on), 120 nC Qg, no specified tSC SOA | Lacks documented 5 µs short-circuit rating; higher conduction loss reduces efficiency in high-duty-cycle welding. | Prefer where lower gate drive complexity is prioritized over fault robustness. |
| STMicroelectronics STGW40H65DFB | 650 V / 40 A, 1.75 V VCE(on), 100 nC Qg, 150°C max TJ | Lower current rating and junction temperature limit restrict use to <5 kW systems; unsuitable for 140 A welding loads. | Select only for space-constrained 650 V designs where thermal headroom is abundant. |

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRGP6690D-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 transient overshoot using TVS diodes or zener clamps, especially during fast switching with high di/dt in high-inductance layouts.
Does IRGP6690D-EPBF require a negative gate voltage for turn-off?
No. The device is fully controllable with 0 V to +15 V gate drive; -5 V to -10 V is not required. However, applying -5 V during off-state improves noise immunity and reduces Miller-induced false turn-on in high-dV/dt environments such as multi-level inverters.
How does the TO-247AD package differ from TO-247AC in IRGP6690D-EPBF?
TO-247AD features an electrically isolated collector tab (no internal connection between collector and mounting surface), unlike TO-247AC where the collector is tied to the tab. This enables direct heatsink mounting without insulating washers in floating topologies like three-phase bridges.
Can IRGP6690D-EPBF be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Yes-its positive VCE(on) temperature coefficient ensures inherent current sharing. Successful parallel operation requires matched gate drive impedance, symmetrical PCB layout, and identical thermal mounting to avoid thermal runaway; empirical testing at full load is recommended before production deployment.
