Product details
Overview
SGP15N60XKSA1 from Infineon is a 600 V, 15 A NPT (Non-Punch-Through) IGBT in PG-TO-220-3-1 package, optimized for motor control and inverter applications. It delivers 2.3 V VCE(sat) at 15 A/150 °C, 10 µs short-circuit withstand time at VGE = 15 V, and 75% lower Eoff versus prior generation.
For engineers reviewing the SGP15N60XKSA1 datasheet, SGP15N60XKSA1 pinout, SGP15N60XKSA1 application, or SGP15N60XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its NPT ruggedness, tight parameter distribution across temperature, parallel-switching capability, and JEDEC1 qualification for industrial motor drives.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs Non-Punch-Through (NPT) silicon technology to achieve high ruggedness, temperature-stable VCE(sat) (1.7–2.8 V across Tj = 25–150 °C), and robust short-circuit behavior with defined 10 µs tSC at rated voltage and junction temperature.
Its dynamic performance is characterized by low gate charge (76–99 nC), controlled switching times (td(off) = 234–313 ns), and low output capacitance (Coss = 84–101 pF), enabling efficient operation in hard-switched 400 V inverter topologies up to 15 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCE | 600 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 400 V DC-link inverters with 50 V margin |
| IC (continuous) | 15 A @ TC = 100 °C - Sustained current rating under heatsink-limited thermal conditions |
| VCE(sat) | 2.3 V @ IC = 15 A, Tj = 150 °C - Low conduction loss enabling <1.5 W conduction loss at full load |
| tSC | 10 µs @ VGE = 15 V, VCC ≤ 600 V - Enables reliable hardware-based short-circuit protection without desaturation circuit complexity |
| Eoff | 0.27–0.53 mJ @ Tj = 25–150 °C - 75% reduction vs. predecessor enables higher efficiency at 10–15 kHz switching |
| RthJC | 0.9 K/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case supports 139 W power dissipation with adequate heatsinking |
| Ciss/Coss/Crss | 960 / 101 / 62 pF @ VCE = 25 V - Low reverse transfer capacitance reduces Miller-induced turn-on risk in bridge configurations |
Pinout & Package
SGP15N60XKSA1 uses the PG-TO-220-3-1 package: insulated plastic case with 3 leads, standard mounting hole, and creepage/clearance compliant with industrial safety standards.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Collector) | Main high-side current path | Connected to DC-link positive in half-bridge; requires low-inductance layout due to 150 A short-circuit peak current |
| 2 (Emitter) | Current return and reference node | Serves as power ground reference; internal emitter inductance is 7 nH - critical for gate drive loop stability |
| 3 (Gate) | Control input terminal | Requires ±20 V absolute max rating; 76–99 nC total gate charge dictates 21 Ω external RG for balanced switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| NPT silicon technology | Enables tight VCE(sat) distribution (±0.1 V) and stable SOA across -55 to +150 °C operating range |
| 10 µs short-circuit withstand | Allows deterministic overcurrent response without gate driver shutdown delay compensation |
| JEDEC1 qualification | Validated for motor control reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and UIS stress per industrial standards |
| Low Eoff with low VCE(sat) | Reduces total losses in 10–15 kHz PWM inverters - e.g., 0.71 mJ total switching energy at 25 °C |
| Pb-free, RoHS-compliant plating | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and wave soldering tolerance up to 260 °C for 10 s |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SGW15N60 | Same die, PG-TO-247-3 package; RthJC = 0.6 K/W, LE = 13 nH | Better thermal performance but larger footprint; suited for higher-power or forced-air-cooled designs | Select SGW15N60 when junction temperature must stay below 130 °C under continuous 15 A load with limited heatsink area. |
| IKB15N60T | Trench-stop IGBT; VCE(sat) = 1.6 V @ 15 A/25 °C, Eoff 30% lower, but tSC = 6 µs | Higher efficiency at light loads but reduced short-circuit margin; requires faster protection circuitry | Choose IKB15N60T only if system-level fault response time is ≤3 µs and thermal design prioritizes conduction loss over ruggedness. |
Compared with SGW15N60 and IKB15N60T, SGP15N60XKSA1 offers the optimal balance of TO-220 usability, NPT ruggedness, and proven 10 µs short-circuit immunity - making it preferred for cost-sensitive, space-constrained industrial inverters where field-reliability is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate resistor value recommended for reliable turn-off?
Based on datasheet Figure 10 and switching energy data, RG > 60 Ω increases td(off) beyond 350 ns and raises Eoff by >40%, risking thermal runaway at 15 kHz. The recommended range is 15–25 Ω for balanced speed, loss, and noise immunity with standard 15 V gate drive.
Does SGP15N60XKSA1 include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No. SGP15N60XKSA1 is a discrete IGBT without an integrated freewheeling diode. External ultrafast diodes (e.g., IDH15E60C5) must be used in antiparallel configuration for inductive load commutation, with matched voltage rating and ≤50 ns reverse recovery time.
Can this IGBT be paralleled with identical units without current-sharing resistors?
Yes - NPT technology provides positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient above 100 °C, enabling inherent current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched gate drive layout, identical RG, and thermal coupling; no emitter resistors needed per Infineon Application Note AN2015-05.
What is the minimum gate-emitter voltage required to ensure full saturation at 15 A?
VGE(th) is 3–5 V, but full saturation at IC = 15 A requires ≥13 V per Figure 7 and Figure 8. Below 13 V, VCE(sat) rises nonlinearly - e.g., 2.8 V at VGE = 12 V/150 °C - increasing conduction loss by >35% versus 15 V drive.
