600V, SMPS Series N-Channel IGBT with
Anti-Parallel Hyperfast Diode
The HGTG12N60A4D, HGTP12N60A4D and
HGT1S12N60A4DS are MOS gated high voltage switching
devices combining the best features of MOSFETs and
bipolar transistors. These devices have 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
o
C and 150oC. The
IGBT used is the development type TA49335. The diode
used in anti-parallel is the development type TA49371.
This IGBT is ideal for many high voltage switching
applications operating at high frequencies where low
conduction losses are essential. This device has been
optimized for high frequency switch mode power supplies.
CAUTION: Stresses above those listed in “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress only rating and operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied.

Handling Precautions for IGBTs
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 bynumerousequipmentmanufacturers 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:
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 devicesare removedbyhand 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. Devicesshouldnever be inserted into or removed from
circuits with power on.
5. Gate Voltage Rating - Neverexceedthegate-voltage
rating of V
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 opencircuited 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. GateProtection-Thesedevices do not haveaninternal
monolithic Zener diode from gate to emitter. If gate
protection isrequiredanexternal Zenerisrecommended.
