Product details

Overview

IRGPS40B120UDP from Infineon Technologies is a 1200 V, 40 A ultrafast soft-recovery co-pack IGBT with integrated diode in Super-247 package. It delivers V_CE(on) = 3.12 V (typ.) at 40 A/15 V_GE/25°C, 10 µs short-circuit capability, square RBSOA, and ultralow E_rec = 3346 µJ (T_J = 125°C), enabling high-efficiency motor drives and industrial inverters.

For engineers reviewing the IRGPS40B120UDP datasheet, IRGPS40B120UDP pinout, IRGPS40B120UDP application, or IRGPS40B120UDP equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1200 V blocking voltage, 3.12 V saturation voltage, 180 ns diode reverse recovery time, 10 µs short-circuit rating, and Super-247 thermal resistance (R_θJC = 0.20 °C/W for IGBT).

Technical Context

This IGBT employs Non-Punch-Through (NPT) technology with positive V_CE(on) temperature coefficient and low-diode V_F (2.03 V typ. at 40 A). Its gate charge profile (Q_g = 340–510 nC) and switching energy (E_on = 1400–1750 µJ, E_off = 1650–2050 µJ at 25°C) are optimized for hard-switched 600 V bus applications with minimal snubber requirements.

The integrated ultrafast soft-recovery diode features trr = 180 ns, I_rr = 50 A, and Q_rr < 9 µC, reducing EMI and enabling parallel operation without current imbalance. RBSOA remains fully square up to 100 µs, supporting robust transient handling in regenerative braking and UPS systems.

Key Specifications

FAQ

What is the maximum gate-emitter voltage rating for IRGPS40B120UDP?

The absolute maximum V_GE is ±20 V. Operation above +15 V or below –5 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for turn-on and –5 V to –10 V for active Miller clamping during turn-off to suppress false triggering.

Does IRGPS40B120UDP require an external freewheeling diode?

No. It integrates an ultrafast soft-recovery anti-parallel diode rated for 80 A continuous forward current at 25°C. The diode shares the same thermal path and exhibits trr = 180 ns and E_rec = 3346 µJ at 125°C, eliminating need for discrete diodes in most inverter topologies.

How is the Super-247 package thermally mounted in practice?

The collector tab is electrically isolated and must be mounted to a heatsink using an insulating thermal interface material (e.g., ceramic washer or silicone pad with 0.2–0.3 mm thickness). Recommended clip force is 20 N (2.0 kgf); torque on M3 screws should not exceed 0.5 N·m to avoid package deformation.

Can IRGPS40B120UDP be paralleled for higher current capacity?

Yes. Its positive V_CE(on) temperature coefficient and matched die characteristics enable stable current sharing. Use identical gate resistors (±5%), symmetrical PCB layout, and shared heatsink mounting. Derate total current by 15% for 2-device parallel operation to account for thermal coupling effects.
