600 V, 30 A TrenchStop IGBT in a TO-263-3 surface-mount package
The Infineon IGB15N60TATMA1 is a TrenchStop IGBT rated at 600 V collector-emitter breakdown and 30 A continuous collector current, housed in a PG-TO263-3-2 surface-mount package. It is designed for medium-power switching applications where a robust, low-saturation-voltage trench-gate device is needed — think motor drives, power inverters, induction heating, and UPS systems.
The 87 nC total gate charge is the key spec for sizing the gate-drive circuit. At a 20 kHz switching frequency, the average gate-drive current is 87 nC × 20 kHz = 1.74 mA, which a standard gate-driver IC handles easily. But at 100 kHz, that current jumps to 8.7 mA — still within most driver capabilities, but the driver's peak source/sink current must be high enough to charge and discharge the gate capacitance within the desired dead-time window. The 17 ns turn-on delay and 188 ns turn-off delay at 25°C give a fast switching edge, but the turn-off energy of 570 µJ under the test condition of 400 V, 15 A, 15 Ω gate resistor tells you where the switching loss lives.
