IRGB4B60KD1PBF datasheet by International Rectifier

IRGB4B60KD1PBF Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the maximum operating temperature range for this IGBT?
  The maximum operating temperature range for the IRGB4B60KD1PBF is -40°C to 150°C.
• How do I ensure safe operation of the IGBT during overcurrent conditions?
  To ensure safe operation during overcurrent conditions, use a suitable current sensing method and implement overcurrent protection (OCP) in your design. The OCP should be able to detect overcurrent conditions and turn off the IGBT quickly to prevent damage.
• What is the recommended gate resistance value for this IGBT?
  The recommended gate resistance value for the IRGB4B60KD1PBF is between 1 ohm and 10 ohms. This value helps to reduce oscillations and ringing during switching transitions.
• Can I use this IGBT in a parallel configuration to increase current handling capability?
  Yes, you can use multiple IRGB4B60KD1PBF IGBTs in parallel to increase current handling capability. However, ensure that each device is properly matched and that the gate drive circuitry is designed to handle the increased current requirements.
• What is the recommended dead time for this IGBT in a half-bridge configuration?
  The recommended dead time for the IRGB4B60KD1PBF in a half-bridge configuration is typically around 100-200 ns. This dead time helps to prevent shoot-through currents and ensures reliable operation.
