650 V, 83 A TrenchStop IGBT in TO-247-3
The Infineon IHW40N65R6XKSA1 is a TrenchStop field-stop IGBT rated for 650 V collector-emitter breakdown and 83 A continuous collector current, housed in a TO-247-3 through-hole package. It targets hard-switching applications such as motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies, welding inverters, and induction heating where conduction and switching losses need balancing. The 1.6 V typical on-state voltage at 15 V gate drive and 40 A collector current keeps conduction losses manageable, while the switching energy of 1.1 mJ (turn-on) and 420 µJ (turn-off) under 400 V, 40 A, 10 Ω gate resistor test conditions defines the usable switching frequency range.
Thermal and mechanical fit
The 210 W maximum power dissipation and 175°C maximum junction temperature allow aggressive thermal designs, but the TO-247-3 package (PG-TO247-3 supplier package) demands a proper heatsink and thermal interface material. The through-hole mounting suits single-sided PCB assemblies and high-vibration environments where screw-mounting to a heatsink is standard. Operating junction temperature range of -40°C to 175°C covers industrial and automotive under-hood conditions.
Lifecycle and compliance
The IHW40N65R6XKSA1 carries an Active lifecycle status and is ROHS3 compliant. For new designs, this is a current-production device with no near-term obsolescence risk.
Sourcing posture
The active lifecycle means it can be specified into production BOMs without immediate supply concern.
