IXGR39N60B

Overview

The IXGR39N60B is a HiPerFAST IGBT manufactured by IXYS, featuring an electrically isolated backside for enhanced thermal management and safety. It operates with a collector-emitter voltage of 600V and a continuous collector current of 39A at 25°C. The device utilizes the ISOPLUS247 package to facilitate direct mounting to heatsinks without additional insulation components. Key electrical parameters include a maximum gate-emitter voltage of ±20V and a typical saturation voltage designed for efficient switching in medium-frequency applications.

Feature Summary

• Electrically isolated backside design eliminates the need for separate insulating materials during installation
• HiPerFAST technology optimized for low conduction losses and robust switching performance
• ISOPLUS247 package enables direct screw-mounting to heatsinks for improved thermal dissipation

Applications

• Induction heating systems requiring high reliability and thermal isolation
• Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) with medium switching frequencies
• Motor drive inverters needing compact packaging with direct heatsink mounting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix and revision level when ordering, as manufacturing updates may occur. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official datasheets or manufacturer declarations prior to integration. Ensure that the ISOPLUS247 package dimensions match the mechanical constraints of the target application board or chassis design.

Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring galvanic isolation between the collector and the heatsink. Compare the thermal resistance characteristics against non-isolated alternatives to evaluate cooling requirements. Consider the switching frequency range supported by the device to ensure compatibility with the system's electromagnetic interference limits and efficiency targets.

Part Context

This part belongs to the HiPerFAST series from IXYS, which focuses on high-performance insulated gate bipolar transistors. The ISOPLUS247 package variant distinguishes it from standard TO-247 devices by providing inherent electrical isolation. It serves as a specialized solution for power electronics where safety and thermal efficiency are critical design constraints.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must maintain the 600V rating, 39A current capacity, and electrically isolated backside feature. Verify pinout compatibility with the ISOPLUS247 footprint. Evaluate thermal resistance values to ensure equivalent heat dissipation capabilities in the existing assembly.
