Product details
Overview
STGD6NC60H-1 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 7 A (at TC = 100°C) PowerMESH™ IGBT in IPAK (TO-251) package, optimized for high-frequency switching with low VCE(sat) (≤2.5 V), fast turn-off (tf = 100 ns @ 25°C), and low Cres/Cies ratio to suppress cross-conduction-used in resonant-mode SMPS and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the STGD6NC60H-1 datasheet, STGD6NC60H-1 pinout, STGD6NC60H-1 application, or STGD6NC60H-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V blocking voltage, 124 ns tf at 125°C, 2 °C/W Rthj-case, and suitability for hard-switched and ZVS/ZCS topologies requiring robust SOA and low gate charge (Qg = 13.6 nC).
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's patented PowerMESH™ strip layout for enhanced current density and reduced saturation voltage. Its H-suffix denotes optimization for high-frequency operation via minimized tail current and fast fall time (tf ≤ 124 ns at 125°C), while maintaining VCE(sat) ≤ 2.5 V at rated current.
The device features a low Cres/Cies ratio (5.5 pF / 205 pF ≈ 0.027), reducing Miller-induced turn-on risk in bridge configurations. Gate threshold voltage (VGE(th)) is tightly specified (3.75–5.75 V), enabling reliable drive with standard 15 V gate drivers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 390 V in 390 V-class inverters and PFCs with margin. |
| VCE(sat) max | 2.5 V @ IC = 3 A, TC = 125°C - enables low conduction loss in thermally constrained motor drives. |
| tf | 124 ns @ Tj = 125°C - allows >100 kHz switching in resonant converters without excessive Eoff. |
| Qg | 13.6 nC - reduces gate driver power demand and simplifies 15 V logic-level drive design. |
| Rthj-case | 2 °C/W - permits 62.5 W dissipation at TC = 25°C, supporting compact heatsink integration. |
| Cres/Cies | 0.027 - mitigates shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations under high dv/dt. |
Pinout & Package
IPAK (TO-251) package with isolated tab (pin 2/TAB connected to collector), 3-pin single-ended configuration. Tab is electrically tied to collector for direct thermal mounting and simplified PCB layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; requires 15 V nominal drive with ±20 V absolute max rating. |
| 2 (TAB/C) | Collector | Main power output terminal; electrically and thermally connected to metal tab for heatsinking. |
| 3 (E) | Emitter | Power return path; referenced to gate drive ground in standard low-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High-frequency optimized structure | Reduced tf (100 ns @ 25°C) and td(off) (76 ns) enable stable operation above 100 kHz. |
| Low VCE(sat) with temperature stability | VCE(sat) rises only ~0.2 V from 25°C to 125°C, easing thermal design in continuous-duty PFCs. |
| Robust SOA at high Tj | ICL = 19 A @ Vclamp = 390 V, Tj = 150°C ensures safe operation during transient overloads. |
| ECOPACK®-compliant packaging | Meets RoHS and halogen-free requirements per ST's environmental compliance program. |
Applications
| High-Frequency Inverters | Resonant SMPS |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 20–150 kHz full-bridge inverters for induction heating and ultrasonic cleaning systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in primary-side H-bridge; handles high di/dt and repetitive hard switching. Use Value: Low tf and high VCES prevent voltage overshoot during fast turn-off, reducing snubber losses. | Use Scenario: LLC resonant converters in telecom rectifiers and server PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Upper-leg switch in asymmetrical half-bridge; operates in ZVS region with minimal tail current. Use Value: Low Cres/Cies and fast tr(Voff) (40 ns) improve ZVS boundary and efficiency at light load. |
| PFC Boost Stages | Motor Drive Half-Bridge |
Use Scenario: Continuous conduction mode (CCM) boost PFC in industrial AC-DC supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Switching element in boost leg; conducts 7 A RMS at 100 kHz with forced-air cooling. Use Value: 2.5 V VCE(sat) at 125°C limits conduction loss to <1.75 W, easing thermal management. | Use Scenario: 3 kW BLDC motor drives in HVAC compressors and pumps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in 3-phase inverter leg; commutated at ≤20 kHz with PWM dead-time control. Use Value: 15 A IC rating at 25°C provides headroom for peak torque surges without derating. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-frequency IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXGH6N60B | Higher VCE(sat) (2.7 V), slower tf (150 ns), same 600 V/7 A rating | Less suitable for >100 kHz resonant topologies due to higher switching loss | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency at high frequency |
| FGL60N60UFD | Lower VCE(sat) (2.2 V), faster tf (70 ns), but higher Qg (25 nC) | Requires stronger gate driver; better for ZVS but less tolerant of gate resistance variation | Choose when minimizing Eoff is critical and gate drive capability is available |
Compared with IXGH6N60B and FGL60N60UFD, the STGD6NC60H-1 balances low gate charge (13.6 nC), moderate VCE(sat), and proven thermal robustness (2 °C/W), making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained 50–120 kHz industrial PFC and inverter designs.

FAQ
Is STGD6NC60H-1 suitable for automotive applications?
No. ST explicitly states this device is not designed or authorized for automotive, safety-critical, or aerospace use. It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and is intended for industrial, commercial, and consumer power supplies only.
What is the maximum gate resistor value recommended for reliable switching?
Based on test conditions in the datasheet (RG = 10 Ω), ST specifies td(off) = 76 ns and tf = 100 ns. Increasing RG beyond 15 Ω significantly degrades switching speed and increases Eoff; 10 Ω is the validated upper limit for 100 kHz operation.
Does STGD6NC60H-1 include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No. The STGD6NC60H-1 is a standalone IGBT in IPAK package with no co-packaged diode. External ultrafast or SiC Schottky diodes must be used in inductive switching applications to handle freewheeling current.
Can this IGBT be paralleled for higher current handling?
Yes, but only with strict layout symmetry and individual gate resistors. Its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient (−2 mV/°C typical) supports current sharing, but mismatched thermal paths or gate delays can cause imbalance-derating by 20% per device is recommended.
