Product details
Overview
STGW80H65DFB-4 from STMicroelectronics is a 650 V, 80 A high-speed trench gate field-stop IGBT with integrated ultra-fast soft-recovery antiparallel diode and Kelvin emitter pin. It delivers VCE(sat) = 1.6 V (typ.) at IC = 80 A, RthJC = 0.32 °C/W (IGBT), and trr = 112 ns (diode) at TJ = 25 °C, enabling high-efficiency photovoltaic inverters and high-frequency converters.
For engineers reviewing the STGW80H65DFB-4 datasheet, STGW80H65DFB-4 pinout, STGW80H65DFB-4 application, or STGW80H65DFB-4 equivalent, key selection criteria include Kelvin-driven switching integrity, tight VCE(sat) distribution for paralleling, thermal resistance under 0.32 °C/W, and diode Qrr < 1 µC at 80 A - all confirmed in DS11137 Rev 5.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's HB-series trench gate field-stop architecture optimized for balanced conduction and switching losses. The dedicated Kelvin emitter pin isolates gate drive return from power current path, minimizing Miller-induced voltage spikes and enabling stable high-dV/dt operation up to 175 °C junction temperature.
Its antiparallel diode features very fast soft recovery (trr = 112–164 ns, Qrr = 955–3838 nC across temperature), low reverse recovery current (Irrm = 27.2–52 A), and negative dIrr/dt slope control - critical for reducing EMI and snubber stress in hard-switched topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 650 V - Maximum blocking voltage; supports 400 V DC-link systems with 1.6× safety margin. |
| IC (TC = 100 °C) | 80 A - Continuous rated collector current at practical heatsink temperature; defines usable output power envelope. |
| VCE(sat) (TJ = 175 °C) | 1.9 V - Confirmed saturation voltage at max operating temperature; enables accurate loss modeling in thermal design. |
| RthJC (IGBT) | 0.32 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; determines minimum heatsink requirement for 470 W total dissipation. |
| trr (TJ = 175 °C) | 164 ns - Reverse recovery time at max junction temperature; sets minimum dead-time for bridge leg commutation. |
| Qg | 414 nC - Total gate charge; directly impacts gate driver power and RG selection for 10 Ω turn-on/turn-off timing. |
| Eoff (TJ = 175 °C) | 2.47 mJ - Turn-off energy at max temperature; primary contributor to switching loss in high-frequency operation. |
Pinout & Package
Supplied in TO-247-4 package with isolated Kelvin emitter terminal. Case material: epoxy thermoset; mounting surface: electrically insulated tab (collector); lead finish: matte tin.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Collector (C) | Main power output node | Connected to DC-link positive; carries full load current and handles 650 V blocking. |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Drives IGBT channel; requires low-inductance connection to gate driver IC for clean switching. |
| Emitter (E) | Main power return path | Carries full load current back to DC-link negative; used for current sensing and power ground reference. |
| Kelvin Emitter (K) | Gate drive return reference | Provides noise-immune gate loop return; must be routed separately from main emitter to avoid VCE feedback during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Extra driving Kelvin pin | Eliminates gate loop inductance impact on switching waveform fidelity; enables reliable 100+ kHz operation without oscillation. |
| Minimized tail current | Reduces Eoff by >25% vs. standard field-stop IGBTs; lowers heat generation in hard-switched PFC and inverter stages. |
| Tight parameter distribution | VCE(sat) spread ≤ ±0.2 V at 80 A; allows direct paralleling of ≥3 devices without current-sharing resistors. |
| Very fast soft recovery diode | Qrr = 955 nC @ 25 °C, softness factor S = 0.45; suppresses voltage overshoot and reduces snubber capacitor stress. |
| High TJ rating | 175 °C maximum junction temperature; extends lifetime in compact enclosures and high ambient environments (e.g., rooftop PV inverters). |
Applications
| Photovoltaic Inverters | Industrial Motor Drives |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Upper/lower leg switch in 2-level inverter bridge; diode conducts motor regeneration current during deceleration. Use Value: Soft-recovery diode limits VCE overshoot to < 720 V during 1000 A/µs commutation; avoids snubber redesign. |
| UPS Systems | Induction Heating |
|
Use Scenario: Online double-conversion UPS delivering clean 50/60 Hz sine wave with zero transfer time during mains failure.

Use Value: Tight trr distribution (±12 ns) allows fixed 300 ns dead-time across production units; eliminates need for adaptive timing. |
Use Scenario: Resonant half-bridge inverters for domestic cooktops operating at 20–50 kHz with variable load coupling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in ZVS topology; diode recovers before next half-cycle to maintain resonance. Use Value: 112 ns trr at 25 °C enables >95% ZVS efficiency up to 45 kHz; reduces MOSFET replacement cost in high-power designs. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN80N60B3 | No Kelvin emitter; higher VCE(sat) = 2.2 V @ 80 A; RthJC = 0.45 °C/W | Limited to ≤15 kHz due to slower switching; unsuitable for direct paralleling without external balancing. | Select when gate drive simplicity outweighs switching loss and paralleling needs. |
| Infineon IKW80N65ES5 | Enhanced diode with lower Qrr (720 nC), but no Kelvin pin; VCE(sat) = 1.75 V @ 80 A | Better diode performance for ZVS, but lacks Kelvin isolation for high-di/dt stability. | Select for resonant topologies where diode recovery dominates loss, not hard-switched bridges. |
Compared with IXGN80N60B3 and IKW80N65ES5, STGW80H65DFB-4 uniquely combines Kelvin drive, lowest VCE(sat), and soft diode recovery - making it optimal for high-density, high-frequency hard-switched inverters requiring robust paralleling and minimal EMI filtering.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the Kelvin emitter pin on STGW80H65DFB-4?
The Kelvin emitter pin provides a dedicated, low-inductance return path for the gate drive circuit, isolating it from high di/dt current flowing through the main emitter. This prevents voltage spikes induced by emitter inductance from modulating VGE, ensuring consistent turn-on/turn-off timing and eliminating false triggering in high-frequency hard-switched applications.
Can STGW80H65DFB-4 be paralleled without external current-sharing components?
Yes - its tightly distributed VCE(sat) (±0.2 V at 80 A) and slightly positive temperature coefficient enable stable current sharing across multiple devices. ST confirms safe paralleling in application note AN4724, provided layout symmetry, matched gate resistors, and shared heatsink thermal coupling are maintained.
How does the diode's reverse recovery behavior change at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 175 °C, trr increases from 112 ns to 164 ns and Qrr rises from 955 nC to 3838 nC - a 4× increase - while Irrm grows from 27.2 A to 52 A. These shifts must be accounted for in dead-time calculation and snubber sizing to prevent shoot-through and overvoltage in bridge configurations.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
ST specifies RG = 10 Ω for characterization (DS11137 Fig. 20), yielding td(off) = 403 ns and Eoff = 2.47 mJ at 175 °C. Increasing RG beyond 15 Ω significantly raises Eoff and thermal stress; values below 5 Ω risk gate oscillation. Optimal range is 7–12 Ω with ferrite-beaded gate traces for >20 kHz operation.
