IXSR40N60BD1

Overview

The IXYS IXSR40N60BD1 is a single Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) integrated with an anti-parallel diode, housed in an ISOPLUS 247 package. It features a 600V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and a continuous collector current of 40A at 25°C. The device utilizes the HDMOSTM process for high current handling and fast switching speeds. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector-emitter saturation voltage of 2.1V at 40A and a gate charge of approximately 116nC. The component supports a pulsed collector current of 80A and operates within a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix BD1 to confirm the ISOPLUS 247 package with electrically isolated backside. Ensure the design accounts for the DBC isolation requirements during PCB layout. Confirm that the 600V rating and 40A continuous current meet the system's peak load demands. Check for any recent product change notices regarding the HDMOSTM generation or packaging materials.

Selection Notes

Select this component when electrical isolation between the heatsink and the circuit ground is required. The ISOPLUS 247 package offers superior thermal conductivity compared to standard TO-247 packages. Consider the integrated diode characteristics if reverse recovery performance is critical for the application frequency. Evaluate the gate charge requirements against the available driver capability to ensure optimal switching times.

Part Context

This IGBT belongs to IXYS' high-power discrete transistor portfolio, designed for industrial and commercial power conversion. The ISOPLUS series specifically addresses applications needing robust thermal dissipation and galvanic isolation. It complements other IXYS power modules by providing a cost-effective discrete solution for medium-power inverters and converters.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 600V/40A rating and ISOPLUS 247 isolated package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal resistance values. Cross-reference datasheets for saturation voltage and switching energy losses to ensure equivalent performance in the target circuit.
