Product details
Overview
STGWA30HP65FB2 from STMicroelectronics is a 650 V, 30 A high-speed trench gate field-stop IGBT with co-packaged antiparallel diode in TO-247 long leads package, featuring 1.65 V typical VCE(sat) at 30 A/15 VGE, 175 °C max junction temperature, and 0.9 °C/W IGBT thermal resistance - optimized for welding and power factor correction circuits requiring fast switching and low conduction loss.
For engineers reviewing the STGWA30HP65FB2 datasheet, STGWA30HP65FB2 pinout, STGWA30HP65FB2 application, or STGWA30HP65FB2 equivalent, key selection criteria include VCE(sat) temperature coefficient, Eoff at 175 °C, reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the integrated diode, RthJC values for both IGBT and diode, and gate charge profile under 520 V/30 A conditions.
Technical Context
This IGBT employs ST's proprietary HB2 series trench gate field-stop structure to simultaneously reduce conduction losses (via improved VCE(sat) behavior at low currents) and switching energy (Eoff = 310 µJ typ. at 25 °C, 643 µJ at 175 °C). The co-packaged diode exhibits trr = 140 ns and Qrr = 21 nC at 25 °C, rising to 200 ns and 47.3 nC at 175 °C.
Its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient ensures current sharing in parallel configurations, while tight parameter distribution and minimized tail current support stable operation in hard-switched inductive loads. Gate drive requirements are defined by Qg = 90 nC, Qge = 15.3 nC, and Qgc = 41.5 nC at VGE = 0–15 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCES | 650 V - withstands DC bus voltages up to 650 V without breakdown |
| IC (TC = 100 °C) | 30 A - continuous collector current rating at 100 °C case temperature |
| VCE(sat) (TJ = 25 °C) | 1.65 V typ. - low conduction loss enabling high-efficiency power stages |
| Eoff (TJ = 175 °C) | 643 µJ - quantified turn-off energy under worst-case thermal condition |
| RthJC (IGBT) | 0.9 °C/W - enables high-power dissipation with minimal junction-to-case temperature rise |
| Qrr (TJ = 175 °C) | 47.3 nC - reverse recovery charge of integrated diode affecting switching loss and EMI |
| td(off) + tf | 184 ns typ. at 175 °C - total turn-off time defining maximum switching frequency capability |
Pinout & Package
STGWA30HP65FB2 uses the TO-247 long leads package (mechanical outline per DS13149 Rev 4 Figure 29), with tab-connected collector (C), emitter (E), and gate (G) terminals arranged in standard three-terminal configuration. Thermal performance is enhanced by direct metal tab mounting and low RthJC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Pin 1) | Gate control input | Receives 15 V logic-level drive; requires 90 nC total charge for full enhancement |
| C (Tab) | Collector output / high-side switch node | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from heatsink unless floating topology used |
| E (Pin 3) | Emitter reference / return path | Serves as common source for IGBT and antiparallel diode; carries full load current and diode reverse recovery current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Co-packaged protection diode | Antiparallel 5 A/10 A pulsed diode with 2.2 V forward voltage at 175 °C enables compact half-bridge layout without external diode |
| Minimized tail current | Reduces turn-off energy and improves controllability during hard switching in inductive PFC and welding inverters |
| Tight parameter distribution | Ensures consistent VCE(sat), Eoff, and Qrr across production lots for reliable BOM planning and parallel device operation |
| Positive VCE(sat) tempco | Enables inherent current balancing when multiple devices operate in parallel without external ballasting resistors |
| Low thermal resistance | RthJC = 0.9 °C/W (IGBT) and 5 °C/W (diode) supports high-power density designs with reduced heatsink size |
Applications
| Welding Inverter Primary Switch | Active PFC Boost Stage |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching device in full-bridge or phase-shifted topology handling peak currents >60 A and repetitive hard-switching stress. Use Value: Low VCE(sat) and minimized tail current reduce average conduction loss and peak switching loss, directly improving thermal margin and duty-cycle capability. | Use Scenario: Boost switch in industrial-grade active PFC modules for 3 kW+ SMPS, operating continuously at 65–100 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage, high-current switching element controlling energy transfer into boost inductor under varying line/load conditions.

Use Value: 90 A pulsed collector current rating and robust SOA (Figure 7) support safe operation during transient overloads without desaturation protection. | Use Scenario: Medium-power industrial motor drives (7.5–15 kW) using 650 V DC bus and PWM frequencies up to 16 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching IGBT in half-bridge configuration driving induction or permanent magnet motors with regenerative braking. Use Value: Integrated diode with low Qrr and controlled dIrr/dt reduces voltage overshoot and EMI during freewheeling, easing snubber design. |
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 IXGN30N60B3 | 600 V rating, higher VCE(sat) (1.8 V typ.), lower Eoff (220 µJ), TO-247 package | Optimized for lower-voltage PFC and UPS where 600 V margin suffices | Select when system DC bus ≤540 V and lower switching loss outweighs conduction loss trade-off |
| Infineon IKW30N60H3 | 600 V rating, similar VCE(sat) (1.6 V), higher Qg (110 nC), same TO-247 footprint | Better suited for soft-switched topologies due to slower turn-off characteristics | Prefer when gate drive strength allows higher Qg and design prioritizes ruggedness over speed |
Compared with IXGN30N60B3 and IKW30N60H3, STGWA30HP65FB2 offers superior 650 V blocking capability, tighter VCE(sat) distribution, and lower RthJC, making it optimal for high-reliability welding and industrial PFC where voltage margin and thermal performance are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-emitter voltage for STGWA30HP65FB2?
The absolute maximum VGE is ±20 V for continuous operation, with transient tolerance up to ±30 V for pulses ≤10 µs. For reliable long-term operation, ST recommends limiting VGE to +15 V during turn-on and –5 V to –10 V during turn-off to ensure robust noise immunity and minimize Miller-induced false triggering.
Does STGWA30HP65FB2 require an external freewheeling diode?
No - STGWA30HP65FB2 integrates a co-packaged antiparallel diode rated for 5 A continuous and 10 A pulsed forward current. This diode is specifically designed for protection and freewheeling in inductive switching applications, eliminating the need for an external diode in most half-bridge and single-switch topologies.
How does junction temperature affect VCE(sat) in this IGBT?
VCE(sat) increases with junction temperature: from 1.65 V at 25 °C to 1.85 V at 125 °C and 2.0 V at 175 °C (all measured at IC = 30 A, VGE = 15 V). This positive temperature coefficient supports stable current sharing in parallel configurations and predictable thermal runaway avoidance.
Can STGWA30HP65FB2 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient, tight parameter distribution, and minimized tail current make it suitable for paralleling. ST recommends matched gate drive impedance (≤6.8 Ω), symmetrical PCB layout, and individual gate resistors to ensure balanced dynamic current sharing and avoid oscillation during switching transitions.
