The HGTD8P50G1 and the HGTD8P50G1S are P-channel
enhancement-mode insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs)
designed for high voltage, low on-dissipation applications such
as switching regulators and motor drives. This P- channel IGBT
can be paired with N-Channel IGBTs to form a complementary
power switch and it is ideal for half bridge circuit configurations.
These types can be operated directly from low power integrated
circuits.

ending at the point where the collector current equals zero (ICE = 0A). The HGTD8P50G1 and HGTD8P50G1S were tested per JEDEC
standard No. 24-1 Method for Measurement of Power Device Tur n-Off Switching Loss. This test method produces the true total Turn-Off
Energy Loss. Turn-On losses include diode losses.

Handling Precautions for IGBTs
Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors are susceptible to gateinsulation 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:
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 V
manent 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.
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.
