Product details
Overview
T2200N16H100XPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a high-power phase-control thyristor designed for industrial AC power regulation in line-commutated applications. It delivers 2170 A average on-state current (ITAVM) at TC = 85 °C, 1600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM/VRRM), and withstands 44 kA non-repetitive surge current (ITSM) - enabling robust operation in soft starters and UPS bypass systems.
For engineers reviewing the T2200N16H100XPSA1 datasheet, T2200N16H100XPSA1 pinout, T2200N16H100XPSA1 application, or T2200N16H100XPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping force range (30–45 kN), two-sided thermal resistance (RthJC = 12.6 K/kW), gate trigger current ≤250 mA, and critical dv/dt rating of 1000 V/µs under maximum junction temperature.
Technical Context
This thyristor operates as a line-synchronized, gate-controlled bidirectional switch in half- or full-wave AC phase control topologies. Its design supports forced commutation via external circuitry and relies on pressure-contact silicon pellet construction with auxiliary cathode terminal for stable high-current conduction.
It features a defined latching current (IL ≤ 1500 mA) and holding current (IH ≤ 300 mA), enabling reliable turn-on and sustained conduction under 50/60 Hz mains conditions. The device's transient thermal impedance profile (ZthJC) is analytically modeled for both anode- and cathode-sided cooling configurations, supporting precise thermal design in dual-heat-sink assemblies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| VDRM / VRRM | 1600 V - ensures safe blocking of 1.15× 1380 VAC RMS line voltage with margin for transients |
| ITAVM (TC = 85 °C) | 2170 A - defines continuous DC-equivalent current capability under standard heatsink mounting |
| ITSM (10 ms) | 44000 A - specifies short-circuit withstand level for protection coordination with fast fuses |
| (diT/dt)cr | 200 A/µs - sets minimum required gate drive di/dt to prevent localized hot-spot formation during turn-on |
| (dvD/dt)cr | 1000 V/µs - determines maximum allowable voltage rise rate before false triggering without gate signal |
| RthJC | 12.6 K/kW - quantifies thermal path efficiency from junction to case with two-sided cooling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phase-control thyristor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT2200N16KOF | Same VDRM (1600 V), higher ITAVM (2300 A at TC = 85 °C); uses different gate geometry and clamping spec (35–50 kN) | Optimized for higher continuous current in forced-air-cooled rectifiers; less suited for compact liquid-cooled soft starters | Select when >2200 A average current is required and clamping infrastructure supports higher force |
| T2200N16TOF | Identical electrical ratings but TO-247-style isolated package; no pressure-mount interface; RthJC = 0.15 K/W (not kW) | Targeted at PCB-mounted, lower-power (<100 A) control modules - not a drop-in replacement for disc-type mounting | Use only in new designs where mechanical integration allows discrete-package mounting and thermal management differs fundamentally |
Compared with TT2200N16KOF and T2200N16TOF, T2200N16H100XPSA1 offers optimal balance of high surge robustness, standardized disc-mount compatibility, and validated two-sided thermal performance - making it the preferred choice for field-replaceable, high-reliability industrial power switching.

FAQ
What is the recommended clamping force range for reliable thermal and electrical contact?
The T2200N16H100XPSA1 requires a mechanical clamping force between 30 kN and 45 kN to ensure low interfacial resistance and uniform current distribution across the 65 mm contact diameter. Exceeding 45 kN risks ceramic insulator fracture, while forces below 30 kN increase thermal resistance and risk hot-spot formation during high di/dt events.
Can this thyristor be used in DC applications such as HVDC converters?
No - the T2200N16H100XPSA1 is designed exclusively for line-commutated AC operation. It lacks forced commutation capability and has no specified reverse recovery time (trr) or Qrr. Its gate-controlled turn-off time (tq = 250 µs typ.) applies only under specific AC commutation conditions, not DC interruption.
What gate drive parameters are required to ensure reliable turn-on without false triggering?
A minimum gate trigger current of 1 A with diG/dt ≥1 A/µs and pulse width ≥20 µs is required for guaranteed turn-on at Tvj = 125 °C. Simultaneously, the critical dv/dt rating of 1000 V/µs must be respected - meaning gate wiring must be shielded and routed away from high-di/dt main terminals to avoid noise-induced misfiring.
How does the auxiliary cathode terminal (Pin 5) function in circuit layout?
The auxiliary cathode provides a dedicated low-inductance return path for gate drive current, decoupling gate loop impedance from the main cathode current path. It must be connected directly to the gate driver's local ground reference - not tied to the main cathode bus - to suppress common-mode noise and improve triggering consistency under high dv/dt conditions.
