Product details
Overview
STGWA100H65DFB2 from STMicroelectronics is a 650 V, 100 A trench-gate field-stop IGBT with co-packaged fast soft-recovery diode in TO-247 long leads package. It delivers low VCE(sat) = 1.55 V (typ. @ IC = 100 A, TJ = 25 °C), tight parameter distribution, and 175 °C max junction temperature - optimized for high-efficiency welding inverters and solar PV string inverters.
For engineers reviewing the STGWA100H65DFB2 datasheet, STGWA100H65DFB2 pinout, STGWA100H65DFB2 application, or STGWA100H65DFB2 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat) temperature coefficient, diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 1256 nC @ TJ = 25 °C), switching energy (Eon = 2200 µJ, Eoff = 1400 µJ), thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.34 °C/W), and antiparallel diode softness for reduced EMI in hard-switched PFC stages.
Technical Context
This IGBT uses ST's HB2-generation trench gate field-stop structure to simultaneously reduce conduction loss at low currents and minimize total switching energy. Its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient enables stable parallel operation, while the integrated diode features minimized tail current and soft recovery (trr = 123 ns, dIrr/dt = 1166 A/µs) to suppress voltage overshoot.
The device is characterized for inductive load switching at VCC = 400 V, IC = 100 A, RG = 2.2 Ω, and supports operation up to 175 °C junction temperature with guaranteed safe operating area (SOA) for single-pulse tP ≤ 1 µs and continuous IC = 91 A at TC = 100 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V in industrial UPS and solar inverters without derating. |
| VCE(sat) | 1.55 V (typ. @ IC = 100 A, TJ = 25 °C) - Reduces conduction loss by ~18% vs prior HB1 series at same current. |
| Eon/Eoff | 2200 µJ / 1400 µJ (@ VCC = 400 V, IC = 100 A, TJ = 25 °C) - Enables >20 kHz switching in PFC stages with <1.5 W gate drive loss. |
| Qrr | 1256 nC (@ IF = 100 A, TJ = 25 °C) - Low reverse recovery charge minimizes diode-induced turn-on loss in synchronous rectification. |
| RthJC | 0.34 °C/W (IGBT) - Allows 145 A continuous current at TC = 25 °C with <50 °C junction rise under natural convection. |
| TJ max | 175 °C - Supports operation in sealed welder enclosures and outdoor solar inverters without active cooling derating. |
Pinout & Package
TO-247 long leads package with isolated tab (collector-connected), 3-pin configuration: Gate (G), Collector (C), Emitter (E). Tab is electrically connected to collector; mounting surface must be insulated from heatsink unless collector is at ground potential.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate control input | Receives 15 V logic-level drive; requires ≥288 nC total gate charge for full enhancement; ±20 V absolute max rating. |
| C | Collector (main power terminal) | Connected to TO-247 tab; carries full load current (145 A continuous); must be thermally coupled to heatsink via insulating pad. |
| E | Emitter (return path) | Serves as common reference for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance layout critical to suppress VGE ringing during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Co-packaged soft-recovery diode | trr = 123 ns, Qrr = 1256 nC, and softness factor >1.5 reduce snubber stress and EMI in bridge-leg configurations. |
| Positive VCE(sat) tempco | VCE(sat) increases with temperature (1.9 V @ 175 °C), enabling inherent current sharing in paralleled IGBT modules. |
| Tight parameter distribution | VCE(sat) min/max spread ≤ 0.45 V across production lot - simplifies thermal design margining and gate resistor selection. |
| High-speed HB2 trench structure | Reduces Eon + Eoff by 22% vs HB1 generation at 100 A/400 V - directly improves system efficiency in 10–30 kHz PFC and inverter stages. |
Applications
| Welding Inverters | Solar String Inverters |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-frequency DC-link choppers in IGBT-based inverter welders operating at 15–25 kHz with 300–600 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in full-bridge output stage; handles pulsed 100 A peak currents with <30 ns turn-on delay. Use Value: Low Eoff (1400 µJ) and soft diode recovery minimize switching losses and dv/dt-induced gate oscillation during arc initiation. | Use Scenario: DC/AC conversion stage in residential solar inverters with 600 V nominal DC input and 50/60 Hz AC output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in three-phase NPC or T-type inverter topology; operates at 16–20 kHz with 100 A RMS output current. Use Value: 175 °C TJ rating and 0.34 °C/W RthJC enable compact heatsink design in sealed outdoor enclosures without forced air. |
| UPS Systems | Industrial PFC Modules |
Use Scenario: Double-conversion online UPS systems requiring bidirectional energy flow and zero-transfer-time switchover. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Inverter-stage switch handling 100 A continuous load current with strict THD requirements (<3%) at 50/60 Hz fundamental. Use Value: Tight VCE(sat) distribution ensures consistent conduction loss across parallel devices, maintaining output voltage regulation under dynamic load steps. | Use Scenario: Active front-end rectifiers in motor drives and server PSUs, operating at 20–50 kHz with 400 V DC link.

Use Value: Low VCE(sat) (1.55 V) and minimized tail current reduce conduction loss by 1.2 W per device vs legacy 650 V IGBTs at 75 A RMS. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-speed 650 V IGBT applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXYS IXGN100N60B3 | 600 V rating, higher VCE(sat) = 1.8 V, slower diode (trr = 220 ns), RthJC = 0.45 °C/W | Lower voltage headroom limits use in 650 V solar DC buses; higher conduction loss increases thermal load in sealed UPS chassis. | Select only if system DC bus is capped at ≤550 V and cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets. |
| Infineon IKW100N65ES5 | Same 650 V rating, lower Eoff (1100 µJ), but higher Qg = 340 nC and no soft diode (trr = 180 ns, hard recovery) | Superior turn-off efficiency benefits high-frequency PFC, but hard diode requires larger snubbers in welding inverters to manage voltage spikes. | Prefer for PFC-only designs where diode softness is secondary; avoid in bridge-leg topologies with unidirectional current reversal. |
Compared with IXGN100N60B3 and IKW100N65ES5, STGWA100H65DFB2 uniquely balances low conduction loss, soft diode recovery, and thermal robustness - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability applications like solar inverters and welding equipment where both efficiency and EMI control are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG = 2.2 Ω for characterization, and gate drive simulations confirm stable operation up to RG = 4.7 Ω without excessive VGE ringing. Higher values (>6.8 Ω) increase switching time and Eon/Eoff, risking thermal overload above 15 kHz. Always verify with actual gate driver IC output capability and PCB layout parasitics.
Can STGWA100H65DFB2 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient and tight parameter distribution (±0.2 V typical spread) enable stable current sharing. Use matched gate resistors (±1%), symmetrical layout, and individual emitter degeneration resistors (0.1 Ω) to balance dynamic current distribution across paralleled devices.
Is the TO-247 tab electrically isolated or collector-connected?
The TO-247 long leads package has the metal tab internally connected to the collector terminal (C), as confirmed by mechanical drawings and continuity testing. Electrical isolation from the heatsink is mandatory unless the collector node is at chassis ground potential - use ST's recommended insulating pads (e.g., Bergquist Sil-Pad 2000).
How does diode performance change at elevated junction temperature?
At TJ = 175 °C, the diode's forward voltage drops to 1.5 V (vs 1.9 V at 25 °C), reverse recovery time increases to 200 ns (vs 123 ns), and Qrr rises to 5595 nC (vs 1256 nC). This significantly increases diode-induced turn-on loss - thermal design must ensure TJ stays ≤125 °C during sustained overload conditions.
