IXA17IF1200HJ

Overview

The IXA17IF1200HJ is a discrete Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) manufactured by IXYS, utilizing Planar Technology (PT). It features a maximum collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 1200 V and a continuous collector current rating of 28 A. The device is housed in an ISOPLUS247™ through-hole package, equivalent to TO-247-3. Key electrical characteristics include a maximum gate-emitter voltage of ±20 V, a typical on-state collector-emitter voltage of 2.1 V at 15 A and 15 V gate drive, and a total gate charge of 47 nC. Switching performance includes a reverse recovery time of 350 ns and switching energies of 1.55 mJ (turn-on) and 1.7 mJ (turn-off). The component supports a junction temperature range from -40°C to 150°C with a maximum power dissipation of 100 W.

Procurement Notes

This component has been officially declared End-of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer. Production cessation was announced via Product Change Notification dated March 7, 2025. Verification of final shipment dates and last-time buy windows should be confirmed directly with authorized distributors or the manufacturer's sales support before initiating any procurement actions.

Selection Notes

Engineers replacing this part must account for its discontinued status. Selection of alternatives requires matching the 1200V voltage class, 28A current rating, and TO-247/ISOPLUS247 form factor. Critical parameters such as gate charge, saturation voltage, and thermal resistance must be compared against datasheets of potential substitutes to ensure circuit compatibility and performance retention.

Part Context

The IXA17IF1200HJ belongs to IXYS's portfolio of discrete planar IGBTs designed for medium-power industrial applications. It represents a standard solution for high-voltage switching where moderate current handling and reliable thermal performance are required. The ISOPLUS247 package is widely used in power electronics for its balance of electrical isolation and heat dissipation capabilities.

Replacement Considerations

STMicroelectronics STGWA40H120DF2 is listed as a similar replacement option. When evaluating substitutes, verify that the alternative device meets or exceeds the original 1200V rating, 28A current capacity, and pinout configuration. Ensure thermal and switching characteristics align with the existing circuit design requirements.
