Product details
Overview
STT2200N16P55XPSA2 from Infineon Technologies is a pressure-contact soft starter module integrating two anti-parallel thyristor arms in a single housing, rated for 1600 V repetitive blocking voltage and 2180 A 21-second overload current, with integrated optimized heatsink and 0.24 mΩ slope resistance - deployed in industrial motor soft-start and bypass switching applications.
For engineers reviewing the STT2200N16P55XPSA2 datasheet, STT2200N16P55XPSA2 pinout, STT2200N16P55XPSA2 application, or STT2200N16P55XPSA2 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified 21 s overload capability (2180 A), junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 0.082 K/W (21 s), gate trigger current ≤200 mA, critical dv/dt rating of 1000 V/µs, and pressure-contact construction enabling high-cycle reliability in static power control.
Technical Context
This module implements a dual-arm, anti-parallel thyristor configuration designed for phase-controlled AC power regulation. It operates with gate-triggered conduction, supports sinusoidal conduction angles from 30° to 180°, and features circuit-commutated turn-off time of 250 µs at 155 °C junction temperature.
Thermal performance is defined by transient junction-to-reference (RthJR) and junction-to-ambient (RthJA) resistances under DC and 21 s overload conditions. Its pressure-contact Si-pellet assembly eliminates wire bonds, delivering stable on-state voltage (≤1.38 V at 2000 A) and low slope resistance (≤0.24 mΩ) across temperature.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar soft starter module applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STT2200N16P55XPSA1 | Same die and package, but rated for RthJA(21s) = 0.084 K/W (vs. 0.082 K/W); minor thermal derating at high ambient | Identical functional use; suitable where 0.002 K/W difference is acceptable in thermal margin | Select XPSA2 when designing for ≥55 °C ambient or constrained heatsink volume |
| TT2200N16KOF | Omitting integrated heatsink; bare-die version requiring external thermal interface and mounting hardware | Used in custom modules where thermal path is engineered separately; higher assembly complexity | Choose TT2200N16KOF only when system-level thermal design mandates full control over heatsink geometry and interface materials |
Compared with STT2200N16P55XPSA1 and TT2200N16KOF, the STT2200N16P55XPSA2 delivers tighter thermal resistance tolerance and plug-and-play heatsink integration - reducing thermal interface uncertainty and qualification time for OEM motor control designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate trigger pulse width for STT2200N16P55XPSA2?
The maximum rated peak gate power dissipation is defined by PGM = f(tg) curves: 150 W for 0.1 ms, 100 W for 0.5 ms, 80 W for 1 ms, and 40 W for 10 ms. Pulse width must be selected within these limits to avoid gate junction overheating; typical gate drive uses 20–100 µs pulses with 1–2 A peak current.
Can STT2200N16P55XPSA2 be operated in single-arm configuration?
Yes - each arm is electrically isolated and can be used independently. The common terminal (Main Terminal 2) allows either series connection for DC applications or independent AC arm control. Gate terminals A and B are fully decoupled, supporting asymmetric firing patterns required in certain regenerative or asymmetrical load controls.
What is the creepage distance and why does it matter for this module?
The creepage distance is 6.3 mm between main terminals and gate terminals, verified per IEC 60664-1 for pollution degree 2. This value ensures safe operation at 1600 V blocking voltage in industrial environments with dust and humidity, preventing surface tracking failures during voltage transients or condensation events.
How is junction temperature monitored in practical implementations?
STT2200N16P55XPSA2 does not integrate a temperature sensor. Junction temperature must be inferred using thermal models: RthJA(21s) = 0.082 K/W and ZthJA transient data enable calculation from measured baseplate temperature and RMS current. Infineon provides analytical Zth functions for MATLAB/Simulink-based real-time estimation in motor control firmware.
