Product details
Overview
STGIPQ8C60T-HZ from STMicroelectronics is a 3-phase intelligent power module (IPM) integrating six short-circuit rugged 600 V, 8 A trench-gate fieldstop IGBTs with freewheeling diodes, three half-bridge high-voltage ICs (HVICs), an uncommitted op-amp, and a fault comparator - all in a single N2DIP-26L package. It delivers compact, low-EMI motor drive capability for built-in appliance motors, supporting 300–500 V DC bus operation and 25 kHz PWM switching.
For engineers reviewing the STGIPQ8C60T-HZ datasheet, STGIPQ8C60T-HZ pinout, STGIPQ8C60T-HZ application, or STGIPQ8C60T-HZ equivalent, key selection considerations include its integrated current-sensing op-amp, dual-function T/SD/OD pin (NTC thermistor interface + active-low shutdown input + open-drain fault output), bootstrap-diode-equipped gate drivers, 1800 Vrms/min isolation rating, and interlocking dead-time control of 180 ns.
Technical Context
This IPM implements three independent half-bridge gate drivers with internal bootstrap diodes and dedicated Vboot pins per phase (U/V/W), enabling self-powered high-side driving without external bootstrap diodes. Each HVIC features TTL/CMOS-compatible 3.3 V/5 V/15 V logic inputs with built-in 375 kΩ pull-down resistors and interlocking logic to prevent shoot-through.
The control section integrates a rail-to-rail op-amp (±2 kV HBM ESD rated, 8–12 MHz GBWP) and a precision comparator (0.54 V reference, 90–130 ns delay) tied to the CIN pin for shunt-based overcurrent protection. Shutdown propagation delays are asymmetric: direct U-phase disable on fault, while V/W disable timing depends on external RC network values connected to the shared T/SD/OD pin.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| IGBT Rating | 600 V VCES, 8 A continuous collector current per IGBT at TC = 25 °C - supports 500 V DC bus with margin for voltage transients. |
| Switching Energy | Eon = 200 µJ, Eoff = 95 µJ at IC = 8 A - enables efficient 25 kHz PWM operation with low conduction + switching loss trade-off. |

Pinout & Package
N2DIP-26L type Z is a 26-pin, surface-mount, insulated double-row package with exposed thermal pad internally connected to GND. Its low-profile, screw-mountable design optimizes heatsink contact area and thermal transfer for space-constrained built-in motor applications.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | GND | Common ground reference for logic, op-amp, and comparator circuits; electrically tied to exposed thermal pad. |
| 2, 15 | T/SD/OD | Multi-function terminal: NTC thermistor node, active-low shutdown input, and open-drain fault output - enables single-wire thermal monitoring and system-level fault signaling. |
| 3, 9, 13 | VCC W/V/U | Independent 13.5–18 V low-voltage supply inputs per phase - decouples noise between gate driver stages and improves EMI robustness. |
| 4, 10, 14 | HIN W/V/U | Active-high high-side logic inputs with 375 kΩ internal pull-down - eliminates need for external pull-downs in MCU-driven systems. |

| 6, 8 | OP+, OP− | Differential inputs of uncommitted rail-to-rail op-amp - configurable for current sensing, voltage monitoring, or signal conditioning. |
| 7 | OPOUT | Op-amp output capable of sourcing 16–30 mA - drives ADC input or external comparator directly without buffer stage. |
| 12 | CIN | Non-inverting input of fault comparator - connects to shunt resistor node for fast overcurrent detection with 90–130 ns propagation delay. |
| 17, 21, 24 | Vboot U/V/W | Bootstrap voltage inputs for high-side gate drivers - each includes internal diode, eliminating external bootstrap diodes and reducing BOM count. |
| 18 | P | Positive DC bus input (300–500 V) - connects to bulk capacitor positive terminal; designed for low-inductance layout. |
| 19, 22, 25 | U/V/W, OUT | Phase outputs driving motor windings - rated for 600 V blocking and 8 A continuous current with integrated freewheeling diodes. |
| 20, 23, 26 | NU/NV/NW | Negative DC bus return paths per phase - separate terminals minimize ground loop inductance and improve current sensing accuracy. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 3-phase IPM motor drive applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| FSTB10CH60 | 600 V / 10 A rating, but lacks integrated op-amp and NTC interface; uses external bootstrap diodes. | Requires external current-sense amplifier and thermal monitoring circuit - increases BOM cost and board area by ~12 mm². | Choose when higher current headroom is needed and system-level analog integration is handled externally. |
| FSBB15CH60 | 600 V / 15 A, includes bootstrap diodes and UVLO, but no comparator or op-amp; larger N2DIP-36L package. | Supports higher-power motors (>1.8 kW) but occupies 40% more PCB area and requires redesign of heatsink mounting. | Choose for >1 kW applications where STGIPQ8C60T-HZ's 8 A rating is insufficient, accepting added complexity and size. |

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended PWM frequency for STGIPQ8C60T-HZ?
The datasheet specifies 25 kHz as the maximum recommended PWM frequency under full-load conditions (TC ≤ 100 °C). This limit balances switching losses (Eon/Eoff) and thermal performance, ensuring junction temperature remains within the 150 °C absolute maximum even at 8 A continuous current and 500 V DC bus.
How does the T/SD/OD pin function in shutdown versus NTC monitoring modes?
In shutdown mode, T/SD/OD acts as an active-low logic input: pulling it below 0.8 V disables all three half-bridges. In NTC mode, it serves as the thermistor node - its voltage drops predictably with rising temperature (e.g., 4.5 V at 25 °C → 2.5 V at 100 °C with 2.2 kΩ pull-up), enabling thermal monitoring without external components.
Can the integrated op-amp be used for voltage sensing instead of current sensing?
Yes - the op-amp's rail-to-rail input/output, ±6 mV offset, and 8–12 MHz GBWP support precision DC bus voltage monitoring. When configured as a unity-gain buffer or differential amplifier with appropriate resistor dividers, it provides accurate feedback for overvoltage protection or adaptive PWM control.
What is the purpose of the interlocking function and how is it implemented?
The interlocking function prevents simultaneous high-side and low-side transistor conduction in any half-bridge by inserting hardware-enforced dead time (180 ns) between complementary HIN/LIN transitions. It is implemented entirely within the HVICs - no external logic or MCU intervention required - ensuring robust shoot-through immunity across voltage, temperature, and aging conditions.
