Product details
Overview
TT600N16KOFXPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a press-pack, double-sided cooled phase-control thyristor module rated for 1600 V repetitive peak off-state voltage (VDRM/VRRM), 600 A average on-state current (ITAVM) at TC = 85°C, and 21 kA non-repetitive surge current (ITSM). It features electrically insulated baseplate, pre-applied thermal interface material (TIM), and pressure-contact silicon die construction-designed for high-reliability industrial power control in soft starters and static switches.
For engineers reviewing the TT600N16KOFXPSA1 datasheet, TT600N16KOFXPSA1 pinout, TT600N16KOFXPSA1 application, or TT600N16KOFXPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.055 K/W), critical dv/dt rating (1000 V/µs), gate trigger current (≤250 mA), and 125°C maximum junction temperature-critical for derating in forced-air or liquid-cooled drive rectifier systems.
Technical Context
This thyristor module implements a dual-arm, anti-parallel configuration optimized for AC phase-angle control in medium-power industrial converters. Its pressure-contact die architecture eliminates wire bonds and enables symmetric current sharing between arms under asymmetrical load conditions.
The device operates with a threshold voltage (VT0) of ≤0.8 V and slope resistance (rT) of ≤0.23 mΩ, enabling low conduction losses at 600 A DC or 1050 A RMS. Its 250 µs circuit-commutated turn-off time (tq) supports line-commutated operation in 50/60 Hz B2 and B6 bridge topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDRM/VRRM | 1600 V - Withstands 1600 V repetitive forward/reverse blocking voltage per arm without conduction. |
| ITAVM | 600 A @ TC = 85°C - Sustains continuous average on-state current per arm under specified heatsink conditions. |
| ITSM | 21000 A @ tP = 10 ms - Handles short-circuit energy up to 2.2 MJ (I²t = 2.2×10⁶ A²s) without failure. |
| RthJC | 0.055 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance per module defines minimum heatsink requirement for thermal design. |
| (dv/dt)cr | 1000 V/µs - Minimum rate of rise of off-state voltage before spurious turn-on occurs at max junction temperature. |
| VT0 / rT | 0.8 V / 0.23 mΩ - On-state characteristic parameters used to calculate conduction loss: Pcond ≈ I² × rT + I × VT0. |
Pinout & Package

| Anode 2 (A2) | Main current terminal - Arm 2 anode | Second arm anode for anti-parallel connection; enables bidirectional AC conduction. |
| Cathode 2 (K2) | Main current terminal - Arm 2 cathode | Second arm cathode; allows reverse-phase triggering in full-wave control applications. |
| Gate 1 (G1) | Control input - Arm 1 gate | Isolated low-energy trigger input (≤250 mA, ≤2 V) initiating conduction in Arm 1. |
| Gate 2 (G2) | Control input - Arm 2 gate | Independent gate drive for Arm 2; enables independent phase-angle control per half-cycle. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TD600N16KOFXPSA1 | Same die, identical electrical specs, but no pre-applied TIM; requires external thermal interface. | Suitable where TIM selection is customer-defined or thermal interface process is standardized. | Select TD600N16KOFXPSA1 when TIM material, thickness, or rework requirements mandate user-applied interface. |
| TT600N16KOFTMA1 | Identical specs except TIM applied only to one side; single-sided cooling configuration. | Used in air-cooled or asymmetric heatsink layouts where only one face contacts heatsink. | Choose TT600N16KOFTMA1 for cost-sensitive single-sided cooling implementations without dual-heat-path requirement. |
Compared with TD600N16KOFXPSA1 and TT600N16KOFTMA1, TT600N16KOFXPSA1 delivers lowest thermal interface resistance (0.0075 K/W) and highest assembly yield via factory-applied TIM on both sides-critical for high-power density, dual-cooled industrial inverters.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The maximum allowable case temperature (TC) is not explicitly defined as a standalone limit; instead, the device is rated for ITAVM = 600 A at TC = 85°C. Operation above this temperature requires derating per the provided ITAVM vs. TC curves (e.g., ~400 A at TC = 100°C for Θ = 180°). Thermal design must ensure Tvj ≤ 125°C under all load conditions.
Can TT600N16KOFXPSA1 be used in a single-phase full-wave rectifier?
Yes-it is configured as a dual-arm anti-parallel thyristor module, making it directly suitable for single-phase full-wave (B2) rectification. The datasheet provides ID vs. Ptot curves for B2 topology, supporting up to ~1200 A output current with appropriate heatsinking and RthCA ≤ 0.12 K/W.
What gate drive voltage and current are required for reliable triggering?
A gate trigger voltage ≤2 V and current ≤250 mA at Tvj = 25°C ensures turn-on under worst-case conditions. For robust operation across temperature, gate pulses should deliver ≥1 A peak current with di/dt ≥1 A/µs, as specified in the gate characteristic curve (vG vs. iG) and critical di/dt rating of 200 A/µs.
Is the baseplate electrically isolated, and what is its isolation rating?
Yes-the baseplate is electrically isolated using aluminum nitride (AlN) ceramic with basic insulation (IEC 61140 Class 1). It withstands 3.6 kV RMS for 1 second and 3.0 kV RMS for 1 minute at 50 Hz, enabling safe direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without additional insulating hardware.
