1200 V / 40 A TrenchStop IGBT for industrial drives and power conversion
The Infineon IHW20N120R5XKSA1 is a 1200 V, 40 A TrenchStop IGBT in a TO-247-3 through-hole package. The 175 °C maximum junction temperature provides thermal headroom for compact heatsink designs in industrial enclosures.
Switching and conduction performance at the test condition
At the standard test condition of 600 V bus, 20 A collector current, 10 Ω gate resistor, and 15 V gate drive, the part delivers a 1.75 V typical saturation voltage and 750 µJ turn-off energy. The 170 nC total gate charge gives the drive circuit designer a clear number for sizing the gate driver output stage and estimating drive power.
Mounting and thermal interface
The TO-247-3 package (PG-TO247-3) is a standard through-hole footprint with a large metal tab for direct heatsink mounting. The 288 W maximum power dissipation assumes proper thermal interface material and adequate airflow or forced convection.
Lifecycle and sourcing posture
The IHW20N120R5XKSA1 is listed as Active on the manufacturer's lifecycle record and is ROHS3 compliant. This is a current-production part, not subject to last-time-buy or phase-out notices at this time. For BOM planning, the standard lead time and pricing are confirmed at quote against an RFQ through independent distribution — no LTB risk for new designs.
