600 V, 11 A IGBT with integrated diode — what it is and where it fits
The Infineon IRGIB6B60KDPBF-INF is a 600 V, 11 A NPT (non-punch-through) IGBT with an integrated ultrafast soft recovery diode, housed in a TO-220 Full Pack through-hole package. It is designed for medium-frequency hard-switching applications such as motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and power-factor-correction (PFC) circuits where a 600 V bus is typical. The integrated diode eliminates an external freewheeling diode in half-bridge and full-bridge topologies, saving board space and reducing component count. The full-pack (isolated) package means the tab is electrically isolated — no mica washer or insulator pad needed when bolting to a heat sink, which simplifies assembly and improves thermal coupling.
Lifecycle and sourcing
There is no last-time-buy or end-of-life notice on record. The part is ROHS3 compliant. For procurement: this is a current-production Infineon IGBT, available through independent distribution. No second-source alternate is listed in the official cross-reference, but the IHW30N120R5XKSA1 is a higher-voltage (1200 V), higher-current (30 A) Trench Field Stop IGBT in a TO-247 package — it is not a pin-compatible drop-in, but it serves a similar function in designs that need more headroom.
