The IDW75E60 from Infineon is a 600V, 75A emitter-controlled ultra-soft silicon power diode designed for high-power switching applications. Its combination of low forward voltage and soft reverse-recovery behavior makes it particularly suitable for motor drives, inverter stages and other power-conversion systems where efficiency and EMI performance are important.
The device has a maximum forward voltage of 1.65V, while Infineon’s product table lists 75A nominal forward current and up to 120A maximum forward current. Non-repetitive surge forward current reaches 220A, providing substantial short-duration current capability for demanding power stages.
Reverse-recovery characteristics include 0.24µC Qrr, 121ns trr, and 38.5A peak reverse-recovery current. Its emitter-controlled technology provides a very soft recovery characteristic, helping reduce switching transients, ringing and EMI compared with harder-recovery diode technologies.
The IDW75E60 has a maximum reverse leakage current of 40µA, maximum power dissipation of 300W, and a maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.5K/W. Its operating junction-temperature range extends from -55°C to +175°C, supporting demanding thermal environments.
The device is supplied in a PG-TO247-3 / TO-247 through-hole package. Infineon’s ordering part number is IDW75E60FKSA1, supplied in 240-piece tube packaging. It is lead-free and RoHS compliant. Infineon currently lists the device as Not for New Design, so it is primarily suited to existing designs, maintenance and replacement requirements.
