Product details
Overview
TD370N18KOFHPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a pressure-contact, double-sided cooled phase-control thyristor module rated for 1800 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM/VRRM), 364 A average on-state current at TC = 85°C (ITAVM), and 12.1 kA non-repetitive surge current (ITSM). It features electrically insulated AlN baseplate, 0.54 mΩ slope resistance (rT), and 0.1 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC), designed for high-reliability industrial power control in soft starters and UPS rectifiers.
For engineers reviewing the TD370N18KOFHPSA1 datasheet, TD370N18KOFHPSA1 pinout, TD370N18KOFHPSA1 application, or TD370N18KOFHPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified gate trigger parameters (IGT ≤ 200 mA, VGT ≤ 2 V), transient thermal impedance ZthJC profile, crowbar-compatible dv/dt rating (1000 V/µs), and dual-arm configuration supporting B2/B6 bridge topologies with isolated baseplate mounting.
Technical Context
This thyristor module implements a dual-arm, anti-parallel configuration housed in an industrial-standard press-pack package with electrically insulated AlN baseplate. Its pressure-contact die attachment ensures stable thermal performance under high di/dt (250 A/µs) and dv/dt (1000 V/µs) stress, enabling reliable forced-commutated operation in static switches and bypass applications.
The device operates across -40°C to +135°C case temperature range, with maximum junction temperature of 135°C and validated turn-off time (tq) of 200 µs at full-rated current. Its DC and AC conduction-angle derating curves (e.g., ITAVM = 364 A at Θ = 180°, 200 A at Θ = 60°) are defined per IEC 747-6 for phase-controlled rectification and power regulation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phase-control thyristor module applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TT370N18KOF | Same die, identical electrical specs, but non-insulated copper baseplate (no AlN layer); RthJC = 0.0535 K/W per arm. | Requires external isolation kit for grounded heatsinks; unsuitable for UPS where chassis-grounded rectifiers demand reinforced insulation. | Select TT370N18KOF only when thermal budget allows lower RthJC and system-level isolation is implemented externally. |
| TD370N16KOFHPSA1 | 1600 V VDRM/VRRM rating; otherwise identical package, gate, and thermal specs; ITAVM = 364 A at same TC. | Limited to 400–480 VAC systems; insufficient margin for 690 VAC soft starters or 3-phase 600 VDC bus crowbar applications. | Choose TD370N16KOFHPSA1 only for cost-sensitive 400 VAC industrial equipment with verified voltage transients ≤1400 V. |
Compared with TT370N18KOF and TD370N16KOFHPSA1, TD370N18KOFHPSA1 uniquely combines 1800 V blocking, AlN-based reinforced insulation, and dual-arm symmetry-making it the sole option for safety-critical, high-voltage UPS rectifiers and grounded-base crowbar circuits requiring no external isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature and how is it enforced?
The maximum junction temperature (Tvj max) is 135°C, specified per IEC 747-6. It is enforced via thermal design using the provided RthJC (0.1 K/W), RthCH (0.02 K/W), and transient ZthJC curves. Operation beyond this limit risks irreversible degradation of the pressure-contact interface and gate oxide integrity.
Does TD370N18KOFHPSA1 support forced commutation, and what is its turn-off capability?
Yes, it supports circuit-commutated turn-off with a typical tq of 200 µs at Tvj max, ITAVM, and vRM = 100 V. This enables use in line-commutated inverters and static transfer switches where natural current zero-crossing is leveraged for reliable commutation without auxiliary circuits.
How does the electrically insulated baseplate affect mounting and thermal performance?
The AlN baseplate provides 3.6 kV/1 sec isolation and eliminates need for mica washers or silicone pads. Thermal resistance from junction to heatsink (RthJC + RthCH) remains 0.12 K/W total, matching non-insulated variants-enabling direct bolt-down to grounded heatsinks without compromising safety or efficiency.
Can TD370N18KOFHPSA1 be used in parallel configurations, and what matching is required?
Parallel operation is not recommended due to inherent parameter spread in gate threshold and on-state voltage. Infineon specifies this device for single-module per arm use. For higher current, multi-module systems must use master-slave gate drive with dynamic current balancing and individual thermal monitoring per module.
