IXGP30N60B2

Overview

The IXGP30N60B2 is a single N-channel Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) manufactured by IXYS. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 600 V and a continuous collector current rating of 70 A at 25°C. The device utilizes XPT technology to achieve low saturation voltage, specified as 1.85 V at 400 V and 24 A. It is housed in a TO-220-3 through-hole package with a power dissipation capacity of 190 W. The component operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Incorporates IXYS XPT (eXtreme Pressure Technology) for optimized trade-off between conduction losses and switching performance.
• Designed for high-efficiency power switching applications requiring robust thermal handling capabilities.
• Features a standard TO-220-3 leaded package suitable for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards.

Applications

• Motor drives and inverters
• Switching power supplies
• Induction heating systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer lot code and date code upon receipt to ensure component authenticity and traceability. Confirm that the physical marking on the package matches the official datasheet specifications exactly. Check for any mechanical damage to the leads or casing before installation. Ensure proper electrostatic discharge precautions are taken during handling and storage to prevent gate oxide degradation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 600V rated IGBT with moderate current handling is required for through-hole designs. Consider the 1.85 V saturation voltage for efficiency calculations in low-to-medium frequency applications. Evaluate the thermal resistance characteristics against the expected ambient conditions and heatsinking strategy. Compare against alternative packages if space constraints differ from the TO-220-3 footprint.

Part Context

This part belongs to the IXYS discrete IGBT portfolio, specifically utilizing the GenX3 platform architecture. It serves as a standalone switching element distinct from integrated modules like the IXGX series. The product line targets industrial power electronics where reliability and cost-effectiveness in single-phase configurations are prioritized over multi-chip integration.

Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed direct substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching electrical parameters such as Vceo, Ic, Vce(sat), and package type. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal characteristics before substituting with components from other manufacturers.
