IXYN220N65A5

Overview

The IXYN220N65A5 is a 650 V, 220 A Gen5 XPT™ Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) manufactured by Littelfuse. It utilizes Extreme Light Punch Through technology and a Trench IGBT process to achieve reduced thermal resistance and low conduction losses. The device features a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 1.35 V at 100 A and supports a continuous collector current of 220 A at 110 °C case temperature. With a maximum power dissipation of 1200 W and a junction temperature range of -55 °C to 175 °C, it is designed for high-efficiency switching applications up to 5 kHz.

Feature Summary

• Optimized for low conduction losses using proprietary XPT thin-wafer technology
• High surge current capability with square Reverse Biased Safe Operating Area (RBSOA)
• Low gate charge requirements enabling efficient drive circuits
• International standard SOT-227B miniBLOC package for reliable mounting

Applications

• Power Inverters
• Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS)
• Welding Machines
• Battery Chargers
• Inrush Current Protection Circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer designation as Littelfuse, which acquired IXYS, when sourcing this component. Confirm the specific revision history (XZ dated 12/08/2023) matches your design requirements. Ensure that the SOT-227B miniBLOC package dimensions and mounting torque specifications are compatible with your thermal management system before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select the IXYN220N65A5 for applications requiring robust performance in high-current environments up to 220 A. Consider its 1.35 V saturation voltage for minimizing conduction losses. Evaluate the thermal resistance characteristics against your heat sink capabilities. Ensure the gate drive circuitry can support the specified 15 V gate-emitter voltage and manage the total gate charge of 750 nC effectively.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Gen5 XPT™ family of IGBTs from Littelfuse (formerly IXYS). It represents an evolution in power semiconductor technology, focusing on improving efficiency through reduced switching and conduction losses. The device is part of a broader portfolio designed for industrial and automotive power conversion systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements should be sought within the Littelfuse IXYS Gen5 XPT™ series. Verify compatibility regarding pinout configuration, specifically the dual emitter terminals in the SOT-227B package. Ensure that any substitute device meets or exceeds the 650 V blocking voltage and 220 A current ratings.
