This device is a low-voltage, low-loss, and high-speed switching device for power management applications. It is designed for optimal performance in applications with high ripple current and fast switching cycles, such as DC-DC converters, solar inverters, power conditioning, motor control, and other power electronics applications.

Features

The IRGSL4B60KD1PBF offers a wide range of features which make it an ideal choice for power electronics applications. It features a low on-resistance of only 30A and a low-voltage drop of 0.75V @ 3A. This allows the device to operate at high speeds while minimizing power loss due to conduction losses. In addition, the device offers high thermal resistance (Junction to Case) of 150°C/W, ensuring that it can operate reliably in high-temperature applications. Additionally, the IRGSL4B60KD1PBF features a wide input voltage range of 10V–600V and can handle short-circuit and over-temperature conditions.

Application Field

The IRGSL4B60KD1PBF device is suitable for a wide range of power electronics applications. It can be used in automotive and industrial applications, such as motor control, DC-DC converters, solar inverters, AC-DC converters, power conditioning, and other power management applications. Additionally, the device can be used in renewable energy applications, such as wind and solar energy conversion.

Working Principle

The IRGSL4B60KD1PBF device is a metal oxide semiconductor transistor composed of a base, collector, and emitter. It works by controlling the flow of current through the base and collector junctions. When the base-emitter junction is forward biased, electrons flow from the emitter to the base, and then through the collector-emitter junction, creating a conducting channel. This causes a large current to be drawn from the collector. The device can be used to control the flow of current in both directions, depending on the polarity of the applied voltage.

Conclusion

The IRGSL4B60KD1PBF is an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) from International Rectifier’s QuickSwitch family.
