Product details
Overview
STGF15M65DF2 from STMicroelectronics is a trench gate field-stop IGBT with integrated soft fast recovery antiparallel diode, rated for 650 V VCES, 15 A continuous collector current at TC = 100 °C, and 6 µs short-circuit withstand time at TJ = 150 °C. It delivers low VCE(sat) = 1.55 V (typ.) and features positive temperature coefficient for safer paralleling in motor control inverters.
For engineers reviewing the STGF15M65DF2 datasheet, STGF15M65DF2 pinout, STGF15M65DF2 application, or STGF15M65DF2 equivalent, key selection criteria include short-circuit robustness, thermal resistance (RthJC = 4.8 °C/W), diode reverse recovery performance (Qrr = 525 nC), and TO-220FP package compatibility with heatsink mounting.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's M-series trench gate field-stop structure optimized for inverter systems requiring simultaneous low conduction loss and reliable short-circuit capability. Its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient and tight parameter distribution enable stable parallel operation without current imbalance.
The integrated diode exhibits soft, fast recovery (trr = 142 ns, Qrr = 525 nC) and low forward voltage (VF = 1.7 V at IF = 15 A), reducing switching losses and EMI in PFC and UPS half-bridge topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in industrial inverters and UPS systems. |
| IC (continuous, TC = 100 °C) | 15 A - Sustains rated load current at elevated case temperatures without derating beyond thermal limits. |
| VCE(sat) (typ., 15 A, 25 °C) | 1.55 V - Enables low conduction loss (≈23 W at 15 A), critical for efficiency in 1–5 kW motor drives. |
| tsc | 6 µs - Provides robust short-circuit protection under VCC ≤ 400 V and TJstart = 150 °C, supporting fault detection timing. |
| RthJC (IGBT) | 4.8 °C/W - Allows direct heatsink mounting in TO-220FP package for efficient junction-to-case heat transfer. |
| Qrr (diode) | 525 nC - Low reverse recovery charge minimizes turn-on loss of companion switch and reduces voltage overshoot. |
| VF (diode, 15 A) | 1.7 V - Reduces conduction loss in freewheeling path, improving overall inverter efficiency in PFC stages. |
Pinout & Package
STGF15M65DF2 is housed in a TO-220FP (Full-Pak) package with insulated tab, enabling direct mounting to heatsinks without additional isolation hardware. The plastic body isolates the collector (tab) from the external heat sink per VISO = 2.5 kV RMS rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (Tab) | Main high-side power terminal / heatsink interface | Electrically connected to metal tab; serves as both current path and thermally conductive surface with 2.5 kV isolation from heatsink. |
| Gate | Control input for IGBT channel | Receives ±20 V gate drive; requires 45 nC total gate charge for full turn-on with 12 Ω gate resistor. |
| Emitter | Reference node for gate drive and current return | Common reference for gate-emitter voltage; carries full load current and diode freewheeling current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Short-circuit withstand time | 6 µs at TJstart = 150 °C - Enables use in systems with microsecond-level fault detection and shutdown response. |
| VCE(sat) temperature coefficient | Positive - Ensures inherent current sharing when multiple devices operate in parallel without external balancing resistors. |
| Integrated diode recovery behavior | Soft and fast (trr = 142 ns, Qrr = 525 nC) - Suppresses voltage spikes and reduces EMI during commutation in bridge legs. |
| Tight parameter distribution | Specified VGE(th) range: 5–7 V - Minimizes gate drive design margin and improves system predictability across production lots. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar IGBT switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN15N60B3 | 600 V rating, higher VCE(sat) = 1.8 V (typ.), no integrated diode | Requires external ultrafast diode; less suitable for compact PFC designs | Prefer when higher voltage margin is needed and board space allows discrete diode placement. |
| Infineon IKP15N65ES5 | 650 V, 15 A, VCE(sat) = 1.6 V (typ.), integrated diode with slower trr = 220 ns | Higher diode recovery loss (Qrr = 920 nC) increases turn-on loss in high-frequency PFC | Acceptable for motor drives where diode speed is less critical, but not optimal for >20 kHz PFC. |
Compared with IXGN15N60B3 and IKP15N65ES5, STGF15M65DF2 offers superior short-circuit ruggedness (6 µs vs. unspecified/limited), lower conduction loss, and faster diode recovery-making it preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency PFC and UPS inverters demanding reliability at elevated junction temperatures.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-emitter voltage for STGF15M65DF2?
The absolute maximum gate-emitter voltage is ±20 V, as specified in Table 2 of the datasheet. Exceeding this rating risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended gate drive is +15 V for turn-on and –5 V to –10 V for turn-off to ensure fast, reliable switching and noise immunity in noisy inverter environments.
Does STGF15M65DF2 require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No, STGF15M65DF2 can be reliably turned off with 0 V gate voltage due to its 6 V typical VGE(th) and positive temperature coefficient. However, applying –5 V to –10 V improves noise immunity and ensures complete depletion under high dv/dt conditions common in bridge-leg operation.
Can STGF15M65DF2 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient and tight parameter distribution (VGE(th) = 5–7 V) enable inherently stable current sharing. For best results, use matched gate resistors, symmetrical PCB layout, and shared heatsink mounting to minimize thermal and electrical imbalances between paralleled devices.
What is the insulation voltage rating between the collector tab and heatsink?
The TO-220FP package provides 2.5 kV RMS insulation withstand voltage (VISO) from all three leads-including the collector tab-to an external heatsink for 1 second at TC = 25 °C. This eliminates need for insulating pads in most 650 V applications, simplifying mechanical assembly and thermal design.
