Data Sheet
December 2001
13A, 1200V, NPT Series N-Channel IGBT
Features
The HGTD2N120CNS, HGTP2N120CN, and
HGT1S2N120CNS are Non-Punch Through (NPT) IGBT
designs. They are new members of the MOS gated high
voltage switching IGBT family. IGBTs combine 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.
• 13A, 1200V, TC = 25oC
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.
Formerly Developmental Type TA49313.

NOTES:
4. Values for two Turn-On loss conditions are shown for the convenience of the circuit designer. EON1 is the turn-on loss of the IGBT only. EON2
is the turn-on loss when a typical diode is used in the test circuit and the diode is at the same TJ as the IGBT. The diode type is specified in
Figure 18.
5. 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.
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 19.
Device turn-off delay can establish an additional frequency
limiting condition for an application other than TJM. td(OFF)I
is important when controlling output ripple under a lightly
loaded condition.
fMAX2 is defined by fMAX2 = (PD - PC)/(EOFF + EON2). 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 (PC) are approximated by
PC = (VCE x ICE)/2.
EON2 and EOFF are defined in the switching waveforms
shown in Figure 19. EON2 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 (ICE = 0).
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.
