Product details
Overview
T2351N52TOHXPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a phase-control thyristor designed for medium-voltage power conversion, featuring VDRM/VRRM = 5200 V, ITAVM = 2250 A (TC = 85°C), and high di/dt capability of 300 A/µs. It operates in load-commutated inverters and medium-voltage soft starters with two-sided forced cooling.
For engineers reviewing the T2351N52TOHXPSA1 datasheet, T2351N52TOHXPSA1 pinout, T2351N52TOHXPSA1 application, or T2351N52TOHXPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include clamping force range (45–65 kN), transient thermal impedance ZthJC, gate trigger current (≤350 mA), and critical dv/dt rating (2000 V/µs).
Technical Context
This thyristor uses pressure-contact silicon pellet construction with dual-sided heat sinking and is rated for operation up to 125°C junction temperature. Its design supports line-commutated and load-commutated switching in high-power AC/DC conversion systems.
It delivers stable blocking at 50/60 Hz across –40°C to +125°C ambient, with verified non-rupture case current and high surge immunity (ITSM = 55 kA, 10 ms). Gate control is optimized for low trigger energy and fast turn-on (tgd ≤ 2 µs) under standardized test conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDRM/VRRM | 5200 V - maximum repetitive peak off-state voltage in forward/reverse direction, enabling direct use in 3.3 kV AC systems with safety margin |
| ITAVM | 2250 A @ TC = 85°C - average on-state current rating defining continuous conduction capability with two-sided cooling |
| ITSM | 55000 A @ 10 ms - surge current withstand defines short-circuit robustness in drive rectifier fault scenarios |
| (di/dt)cr | 300 A/µs - minimum required rate of rise for reliable turn-on without spurious triggering |
| (dv/dt)cr | 2000 V/µs - critical off-state voltage rise rate before unintended commutation occurs |
| RthJC | 6.0 K/kW - junction-to-case thermal resistance with two-sided DC cooling, used to calculate heatsink requirements |
| VT0 | 0.81 V - threshold voltage determining conduction onset and low-current loss behavior |
| rT | 0.347 mΩ - slope resistance defining linear on-state voltage drop above threshold (vT ≈ VT0 + iT × rT) |
Pinout & Package
Package: Disc-type, double-side cooled, press-pack thyristor with 121 mm max diameter, 86 mm contact diameter, and 26 mm height. Requires mechanical clamping force of 45–65 kN.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (1) | Main current terminal (high-side) | Carries full load current during conduction; must be thermally coupled to heatsink via conductive interface |
| Cathode (2) | Main current terminal (low-side) | Completes main conduction path; electrically isolated but thermally active in two-sided cooling configuration |
| Gate (4) | Control input | Triggers conduction when ≥350 mA pulse applied; requires low-inductance gate drive to meet di/dt demands |
| Hilfskathode / Auxiliary Cathode (5) | Gate reference node | Provides dedicated low-impedance return path for gate current, improving noise immunity and triggering reliability |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Full 50/60 Hz blocking over –40°C to +125°C | Enables deployment in outdoor or unconditioned industrial environments without derating |
| High case non-rupture current | Withstands mechanical stress during extreme short-circuit events without housing failure |
| Two-sided thermal interface design | Supports symmetrical heat extraction from both anode and cathode surfaces for optimal thermal management |
| Gate-controlled delay time ≤ 2 µs | Ensures precise timing alignment in synchronized multi-thyristor converter topologies |
| Recovery charge Qr = 17 mAs | Defines commutation losses and snubber sizing in load-commutated inverter (LCI) applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phase-control thyristor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT2351N52KOF | Same VDRM/VRRM and ITAVM, but rated for 100°C case temperature and uses different gate termination geometry | Optimized for single-sided cooling; lower thermal resistance to heatsink (RthCH = 1.5 K/kW vs. 2.0 K/kW) | Select when system uses only anode-side heatsinking and requires tighter gate drive layout tolerance |
| STT2351N52H | Identical voltage/current ratings but features enhanced dv/dt immunity (2500 V/µs) and higher ITSM (60 kA) | Targeted at high-noise grid-tied converters where EMI-induced false triggering is a concern | Prefer when operating near harmonic-rich utility interfaces or with long cable runs introducing voltage overshoot |
Compared with TT2351N52KOF and STT2351N52H, the T2351N52TOHXPSA1 offers balanced performance for dual-sided cooled LCI and softstarter designs, with verified thermal transient response and gate drive compatibility across standard industrial trigger circuits.

FAQ
What is the recommended clamping force for T2351N52TOHXPSA1 installation?
The device requires a mechanical clamping force between 45 kN and 65 kN to ensure proper thermal contact and electrical integrity across the pressure-contact silicon pellet. Under-torque risks thermal runaway; over-torque may deform the copper housings or damage internal bonding. Use calibrated hydraulic tools and follow Infineon's mounting sequence per Application Note AN2015-007.
Does T2351N52TOHXPSA1 support asymmetrical cooling configurations?
No - its RthJC specification (6.0 K/kW) is defined exclusively for two-sided, DC-cooled operation. Asymmetrical or single-sided cooling increases junction temperature beyond rated limits and voids the 125°C Tvj guarantee. For single-sided use, select TT2351N52KOF, which specifies RthJC = 11.0 K/kW (anode-side only).
How is the auxiliary cathode (terminal 5) used in gate drive design?
Terminal 5 provides a dedicated low-inductance return path for gate current, decoupling it from main cathode current loops. It must be connected directly to the gate driver ground with minimal trace length (<10 mm) and no shared vias. Omitting this connection increases tgd variation and raises risk of false triggering under high di/dt conditions.
Can T2351N52TOHXPSA1 be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Parallel operation is not recommended without active current-sharing circuitry. The device lacks integrated emitter ballasting or matched dynamic parameters. Even with identical gate drive, mismatched vT and rT values cause current imbalance exceeding 20% at full load. For >2250 A systems, use multi-phase topologies or higher-rated single devices like T3351N52TOHXPSA1.
