STMicroelectronics 60H65DFB
The STMicroelectronics 60H65DFB (STGW60H65DFB / STGWA60H65DFB / STGWT60H65DFB) is a trench-gate field-stop IGBT designed for 650 V operation with a continuous current rating of 60 A at TC = 100 °C, and 80 A at TC = 25 °C when limited by bond wires. It offers a typical VCE(sat) of 1.6 V at 60 A and supports high-speed switching for use in power-conversion systems. The component is available in TO-247, TO-247 long-lead, and TO-3P package variants, and is rated for a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C.
The device structure provides tight parameter distribution and a slightly positive VCE(sat) temperature coefficient, supporting parallel operation when appropriate thermal design is applied. Integrated features include a fast soft-recovery antiparallel diode, low tail current behavior, and low junction-to-case thermal resistance values of 0.4 °C/W (IGBT) and 1.14 °C/W (diode). These characteristics support stable switching performance and predictable thermal behavior in continuous operation.
The 60H65DFB is suitable for high-power energy conversion systems such as photovoltaic inverters, UPS systems, AC-DC converters, motor drives and welding equipment. It is intended for applications where a balance between conduction losses, switching losses, and thermal stability is required. Refer to the manufacturer datasheet for electrical curves, switching data, and design considerations.
