STGP8M120DF3 Datasheet Trench gate field-stop, 1200 V, 8 A, low-loss M series IGBT in a TO-220 package Features 10 s of minimum short-circuit withstand time TAB V = 1.85 V (typ.) I = 8 A CE(sat) C Tight parameter distribution Positive V temperature coefficient 3 CE(sat) 2 1 Low thermal resistance TO-220 Soft and very fast recovery antiparallel diode Maximum junction temperature: T = 175 C J C(2, TAB) Applications Industrial drives G(1) UPS Solar Welding E(3) NG1E3C2T General-purpose inverters Description This device is an IGBT developed using an advanced proprietary trench gate field- stop structure. The device is part of the M series IGBTs, which represent an optimal balance between inverter system performance and efficiency where low-loss and short-circuit functionality are essential. Furthermore, the positive V temperature Product status link CE(sat) coefficient and tight parameter distribution result in safer paralleling operation.
