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.
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.
