Product details
Overview
STGW19NC60W from STMicroelectronics is a 19 A, 600 V ultra-fast IGBT in TO-247 package, designed for high-frequency switching in hard-switched and resonant topologies. It features low Cres/Cies ratio (26 pF / 1180 pF ≈ 0.022), 2.1 V typical VCE(sat) at 12 A/25°C, and 53 nC total gate charge - enabling efficient operation in motor drives and PFC stages of industrial SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the STGW19NC60W datasheet, STGW19NC60W pinout, STGW19NC60W application, or STGW19NC60W equivalent, key selection criteria include its 140 W TC=25°C power dissipation, 0.9 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 127 ns turn-off delay at 125°C, and compatibility with 15 V gate drive in high-reliability inverter designs.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's PowerMESH™ process to balance conduction loss and switching speed. Its ultra-fast switching is enabled by optimized carrier lifetime control and low reverse transfer capacitance (Cres = 26 pF), minimizing Miller-induced cross-conduction risk in bridge configurations.
The device operates with ±20 V gate-emitter voltage rating and exhibits stable threshold voltage (VGE(th) = 3.75–5.75 V) across –65°C to 150°C junction temperature range, supporting robust gate drive design in thermally demanding applications like UPS inverters and servo motor controllers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 400 V nominal with 50% safety margin in industrial AC-DC conversion |
| IC (TC=100°C) | 23 A - continuous current capability at elevated heatsink temperatures common in enclosed motor drives |
| VCE(sat) | 2.1 V typ. @ 12 A, 25°C - enables <1.5 W conduction loss per device at rated current, reducing heatsink requirements |
| Cres/Cies | 26 pF / 1180 pF - low ratio minimizes dv/dt-induced false turn-on, allowing simpler gate drive without active Miller clamp |
| Rthj-case | 0.9 °C/W - enables direct mounting to aluminum heatsinks for compact 1–2 kW inverter modules |
| Qg | 53 nC - determines gate driver peak current requirement (~2–3 A for 10 Ω RG and 15 V drive) |
| Eoff | 125 μJ @ 25°C - quantifies energy loss during turn-off, critical for thermal budgeting in 20–100 kHz PFC stages |
Pinout & Package
TO-247 package: isolated tab (collector), 3-pin through-hole configuration with standard lead spacing and mechanical footprint per ST's official mechanical drawing (Rev 3, Nov 2008).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Left) | Gate | High-impedance MOS-controlled input; requires low-inductance 15 V drive with ≤10 Ω series resistance for controlled switching |
| 2 (Center) | Collector | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for direct heatsink mounting and thermal path |
| 3 (Right) | Emitter | Power return path and gate reference; must be routed with minimal loop inductance to suppress voltage spikes during di/dt transients |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-fast switching | td(off) = 90 ns @ 25°C enables >50 kHz operation in resonant LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge topologies |
| Low Cres/Cies ratio | 0.022 reduces Miller feedback, eliminating need for negative gate voltage or complex active clamping in half-bridge legs |
| PowerMESH™ process | Optimizes trade-off between VCE(sat) and Esw, delivering 2.1 V saturation voltage without sacrificing 127 ns turn-off delay at 125°C |
| ECOPACK® compliance | Lead-free second-level interconnect meets RoHS and JEDEC JESD97 standards for industrial environmental compliance |
| 150°C max junction temperature | Supports operation in sealed enclosures with ambient temperatures up to 85°C when paired with 0.9 °C/W heatsinking |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 3-phase inverter stage in 1–3 kW variable-frequency drives for HVAC compressors and pumps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in each leg of IGBT-based 6-pulse inverter, operating at 8–16 kHz PWM frequency. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) and fast turn-off reduce conduction + switching losses, improving efficiency from 94% to 95.2% at full load. | Use Scenario: Inverter output stage in online double-conversion UPS systems delivering clean 50/60 Hz sine wave under battery backup. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in H-bridge output stage, synchronized to DSP-generated SPWM signals with precise dead-time control. Use Value: Stable VGE(th) over temperature ensures consistent timing margins, preventing shoot-through during thermal cycling. |

Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in 65–100 kHz resonant half-bridge DC-DC converters for telecom rectifiers and server PSUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Zero-voltage switching (ZVS)-assisted main switch, leveraging low Cres to minimize turn-on loss during soft-switching transitions.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-efficiency switching element handling 50–100 kHz switching with high di/dt (1400 A/μs at 125°C). Use Value: 1400 A/μs di/dt capability sustains fast current ramping under transient line surges, maintaining THD <5% at 230 VAC input. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar ultra-fast IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGH16N60B3 | Higher VCE(sat) (2.4 V typ.), higher Qg (65 nC), TO-247 package | Lower switching speed (td(off) = 170 ns) limits usable frequency to ≤40 kHz in hard-switched PFC | Preferable where lower cost and proven field reliability outweigh switching loss penalties |
| Infineon IKP15N60T | Lower IC rating (15 A), lower Eoff (95 μJ), TRENCHSTOP™ technology | Better light-load efficiency but derates faster above 85°C case temperature due to higher Rthj-case (1.1 °C/W) | Preferred for space-constrained designs where thermal margin is limited and peak power is <1.5 kW |
Compared with IXGH16N60B3 and IKP15N60T, STGW19NC60W delivers superior high-temperature switching performance (127 ns td(off) at 125°C) and lowest Cres/Cies ratio, making it optimal for thermally aggressive, high-frequency inverter applications requiring tight timing control and low cross-conduction risk.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for STGW19NC60W in a 50 kHz inverter application?
The datasheet specifies RG = 10 Ω for all switching characterization curves. At 50 kHz, using RG > 15 Ω increases turn-on/off times beyond safe SOA limits, risking excessive Esw and thermal runaway. For EMI-sensitive designs, a 10 Ω gate resistor with ferrite bead on gate trace is preferred over increasing resistance.
Does STGW19NC60W include an integrated anti-parallel diode?
No. STGW19NC60W is a standalone IGBT in TO-247 package without co-packaged diode. External ultrafast recovery diodes (e.g., STTH16R06D) must be used in inductive load applications to handle freewheeling current and prevent destructive reverse recovery.
Can STGW19NC60W operate safely at 150°C junction temperature continuously?
Yes - its absolute maximum Tj is 150°C, and electrical characteristics (e.g., VCE(sat), Eoff) are guaranteed up to this limit. However, sustained operation requires thermal design ensuring Tj ≤ 150°C under worst-case load and ambient conditions, verified via Rthj-case = 0.9 °C/W and heatsink thermal resistance modeling.
Is STGW19NC60W pin-compatible with STGP19NC60W or STGB19NC60W?
No - STGW19NC60W uses TO-247 (3-pin, isolated tab), STGP19NC60W uses TO-220 (3-pin, non-isolated tab), and STGB19NC60W uses D2PAK (surface-mount). Pin numbering differs across packages; mechanical and thermal interfaces are not interchangeable without PCB and heatsink redesign.
