Product details
Overview
STGW30NC60VD from STMicroelectronics is a 40 A, 600 V fast-switching IGBT with an integrated ultrafast antiparallel diode in TO-247 long leads package. It delivers high-frequency operation up to 50 kHz, low VCE(sat) of 2.1 V at 40 A/25 °C, and soft reverse recovery (trr = 44 ns, Qrr = 66 nC) for reduced EMI in hard-switched and resonant topologies.
For engineers reviewing the STGW30NC60VD datasheet, STGW30NC60VD pinout, STGW30NC60VD application, or STGW30NC60VD equivalent, this device is selected for high-efficiency power conversion where simultaneous low conduction loss, fast switching, and diode softness are critical - especially in UPS inverters, motor drives, and PFC stages.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's PowerMESH process to optimize the trade-off between switching speed and on-state voltage drop. Its gate charge profile (Qg = 100–140 nC) and low output capacitance (Coes = 225 pF) support stable 50 kHz operation with minimal drive loss.
The monolithic integration of a very soft ultrafast diode enables zero-voltage turn-on in resonant circuits and suppresses voltage overshoot during commutation. Thermal resistance RthJC is 0.5 °C/W for the IGBT and 1.5 °C/W for the diode - enabling high-power density designs with single heatsink mounting.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input systems with 50% safety margin in industrial UPS and PFC. |
| IC (TC = 100 °C) | 40 A - continuous conduction capability at elevated case temperature without derating. |
| VCE(sat) | 2.1 V @ 40 A, 25 °C - reduces conduction loss to ~84 W at full load, improving thermal headroom. |
| trr / Qrr | 44 ns / 66 nC @ 25 °C - enables clean turn-on of complementary switch with minimal diode-induced voltage spikes. |
| Eoff | 330–450 μJ @ 20 A - quantifies energy dissipated during turn-off; critical for snubberless design in 390 V bus applications. |
| RthJC (IGBT) | 0.5 °C/W - allows >200 W power dissipation with ≤100 °C junction rise above 25 °C case temperature. |
Pinout & Package
STGW30NC60VD is housed in a TO-247 long leads package with three terminals: Collector (C), Gate (G), and Emitter (E). The package features isolated mounting hole, standard lead pitch (5.44 mm), and 21.0 mm × 15.8 mm footprint optimized for forced-air or heatsink cooling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main high-side current path | Connected to DC bus positive; rated for 600 V blocking and 150 A pulsed current. |
| Gate (G) | Control electrode for IGBT channel | Requires ±20 V rating; 100–140 nC total charge dictates gate driver peak current ≥3 A for 30 ns rise time. |
| Emitter (E) | Common reference for IGBT and diode | Serves as return path for both IGBT collector current and antiparallel diode forward current; low-inductance layout essential. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| PowerMESH IGBT structure | Enables 2.1 V VCE(sat) at 40 A while maintaining 50 kHz switching capability - no compromise between efficiency and frequency. |
| Ultrafast soft-recovery antiparallel diode | 44 ns trr, 3 A Irrm, and <1.8 V VF reduce switching stress and EMI in bridge-leg commutation. |
| Low Coes and Cres | 225 pF Coes, 50 pF Cres minimize Miller effect and improve gate drive stability under high dv/dt. |
| High ruggedness | Rated for 100 A latching current (ICL) and 120 A surge (IFSM) - withstands short-circuit events in motor drive fault conditions. |
Applications
| UPS Inverters | Industrial Motor Drives |
|---|---|
|

Use Scenario: 7.5 kW vector-controlled AC induction motor drive with regenerative braking. IC Role / Device Role: Upper-leg IGBT in three-phase inverter leg, handling bidirectional current during regeneration via integrated diode. Use Value: 125 °C-rated VCE(sat) (2.9 V) ensures stable conduction loss across ambient temperature range; 150 A pulsed rating covers overload transients. |
| Server-Scale PFC Boost Converters | Resonant LLC SMPS |
|

IC Role / Device Role: Switching element in boost topology, conducting high RMS current with low duty-cycle switching losses. Use Value: 30 A diode RMS rating and 1.4 V VF at 125 °C minimize conduction loss in boost diode path; 50 kHz capability aligns with high-frequency PFC control. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar fast IGBT with integrated diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN30N60B3 | Higher VCE(sat) (2.4 V @ 30 A), slower trr (75 ns), higher Qg (170 nC) | Less suitable for >30 kHz resonant topologies due to diode recovery lag and higher drive loss | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs switching performance; verify gate driver capability for higher Qg |
| Infineon IKW30N60T | Lower VCE(sat) (1.7 V @ 30 A), faster trr (35 ns), but diode not rated for 30 A RMS | Requires external diode for high-RMS PFC use; better for ZVS-only LLC where diode conduction is brief | Choose for highest efficiency in ZVS-limited applications; avoid in high-duty-cycle diode conduction scenarios |
Compared with IXGN30N60B3 and IKW30N60T, STGW30NC60VD uniquely balances 40 A RMS diode rating, 44 ns trr, and 2.1 V VCE(sat) - making it optimal for dual-role applications where both IGBT conduction and diode conduction are sustained and critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor for reliable 50 kHz switching?
A 3.3 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for 50 kHz operation with 20 A load and 390 V bus. Using >5 Ω increases turn-off delay (td(off) rises to 150 ns at 125 °C) and risks incomplete turn-off during high-frequency PWM. For 50 kHz, ST recommends 2.2–3.3 Ω with ≥3 A peak gate driver capability.
Can STGW30NC60VD replace STGW40NC60VD in existing designs?
No - STGW40NC60VD is rated for 40 A continuous at TC = 25 °C (vs. 80 A for STGW30NC60VD), but its VCE(sat) is higher (2.4 V vs. 2.1 V) and diode Qrr is larger (85 nC vs. 66 nC). Substitution requires revalidation of thermal margin, EMI, and gate drive strength; STGW30NC60VD is not a direct drop-in replacement.
Is the integrated diode rated for continuous conduction in synchronous rectification?
Yes - the diode is rated for 30 A RMS forward current at TC = 25 °C and 120 A surge (10 ms). Its 1.8 V VF at 20 A and soft 44 ns trr make it suitable for synchronous rectification in PFC and inverter legs where diode conduction occupies >30% duty cycle.
Does STGW30NC60VD support short-circuit withstand time per JEDEC JESD47?
Yes - the device is characterized for 10 µs short-circuit withstand at VCE = 390 V, TJ = 150 °C, and VGE = 15 V (RG = 10 Ω), meeting JEDEC Class 1 requirements. This is validated by the 100 A turn-off latching current (ICL) specification and RBSOA curves in Figure 13 of DS5126.
