600 V, 40 A Trench Field Stop IGBT in TO-247
It is designed for medium-power switching applications such as motor drives, inverters, and power supplies where low conduction and switching losses are required.
Conduction and switching losses at the test point
At the test condition of 400 V, 20 A with a 10 Ohm gate resistor and 15 V gate drive, the STGW20H60DF exhibits a Vce(on) of 2 V typical, setting a conduction loss floor of 40 W at that current. Switching energy measures 209 µJ during turn-on and 261 µJ during turn-off under the same conditions. Gate charge is 115 nC total, which determines the drive current needed from the gate driver to achieve the target switching frequency. The 42.5 ns turn-on delay and 177 ns turn-off delay at 25°C give a baseline for timing closure in the switching loop.
The 167 W maximum power dissipation sets the heatsink sizing target; actual dissipation depends on the switching frequency and load duty cycle. The reverse recovery time of the internal diode is 90 ns, relevant for hard-switching topologies where the diode's recovery charge contributes to turn-on loss in the complementary switch.
It is ROHS3 compliant.
