Data Sheet
December 2001
45A, 600V, UFS Series N-Channel IGBT
with Anti-Parallel Hyperfast Diode
The HGTG20N60C3D is a MOS gated high voltage
switching device combining the best features of MOSFETs
and bipolar transistors. This device has the high input
impedance of a MOSFET and the low on-state conduction
loss of a bipolar transistor. The much lower on-state voltage
drop varies only moderately between 25 oC and 150oC. The
IGBT used is development type TA49178. The diode used in
anti-parallel with the IGBT is the RHRP3060 (TA49063).
The IGBT is ideal for many high voltage switching
applications operating at moderate frequencies where low
conduction losses are essential, such as: AC and DC motor
controls, power supplies and drivers for solenoids, relays
and contactors.

3. Turn-Off Energy Loss (EOFF) is defined as the integral of the instantaneous power loss starting at the trailing edge of the input pulse and ending
at the point where the collector current equals zero (ICE = 0A). All devices were tested per JEDEC Standard No. 24-1 Method for Measurement
of Power Device Turn-Off Switching Loss. This test method produces the true total Turn-Off Energy Loss.

Handling Precautions for IGBTs
Operating Frequency Information
Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors are susceptible to
gate-insulation damage by the electrostatic discharge of
energy through the devices. When handling these devices,
care should be exercised to assure that the static charge built
in the handler’s body capacitance is not discharged through
the device. With proper handling and application procedures,
however, IGBTs are currently being extensively used in
production by numerous equipment manufacturers in military,
industrial and consumer applications, with virtually no damage
problems due to electrostatic discharge. IGBTs can be
handled safely if the following basic precautions are taken:
Operating frequency information for a typical device
(Figure 3) is presented as a guide for estimating device
performance for a specific application. Other typical
frequency vs collector current (ICE) plots are possible using
the information shown for a typical unit in Figures 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
and 11. The operating frequency plot (Figure 3) of a typical
device shows fMAX1 or fMAX2 ; whichever is smaller at each
point. The information is based on measurements of a
typical device and is bounded by the maximum rated
junction temperature.
1. Prior to assembly into a circuit, all leads should be kept
shorted together either by the use of metal shorting
springs or by the insertion into conductive material such
as “ECCOSORBD™ LD26” or equivalent.
2. When devices are removed by hand from their carriers,
the hand being used should be grounded by any suitable
means - for example, with a metallic wristband.
3. Tips of soldering irons should be grounded.
4. Devices should never be inserted into or removed from
circuits with power on.
5. Gate Voltage Rating - Never exceed the gate-voltage
rating of VGEM. Exceeding the rated VGE can result in
permanent damage to the oxide layer in the gate region.
6. Gate Termination - The gates of these devices are
essentially capacitors. Circuits that leave the gate
open-circuited or floating should be avoided. These
conditions can result in turn-on of the device due to
voltage buildup on the input capacitor due to leakage
currents or pickup.
7. Gate Protection - These devices do not have an internal
monolithic Zener diode from gate to emitter. If gate
protection is required an external Zener is recommended.

fMAX1 is defined by fMAX1 = 0.05/(td(OFF)I+ td(ON)I).
Deadtime (the denominator) has been arbitrarily held to 10%
of the on-state time for a 50% duty factor. Other definitions
are possible. td(OFF)I and td(ON)I are defined in Figure 20.
Device turn-off delay can establish an additional frequency
limiting condition for an application other than T JM. td(OFF)I
is important when controlling output ripple under a lightly
loaded condition.
fMAX2 is defined by fMAX2 = (PD - PC)/(EOFF + EON). The
allowable dissipation (PD) is defined by PD = (TJM - TC)/RθJC.
The sum of device switching and conduction losses must
not exceed PD. A 50% duty factor was used (Figure 3) and
the conduction losses (P C) are approximated by
PC = (VCE x ICE)/2.
EON and EOFF are defined in the switching waveforms
shown in Figure 20. EON is the integral of the instantaneous
power loss (ICE x VCE) during turn-on and EOFF is the
integral of the instantaneous power loss (ICE x VCE) during
turn-off. All tail losses are included in the calculation for
EOFF; i.e., the collector current equals zero (I CE = 0).
