Applications
The IXBH12N300 is designed for ultra-high-voltage power switching applications such as pulsed power systems, high-voltage DC/DC converters, medical X-ray and CT scanner power supplies, and industrial plasma generation equipment operating at bus voltages up to 3000 V. Its integrated anti-parallel diode eliminates the need for an external freewheeling diode, simplifying circuit design in half-bridge and full-bridge inverter topologies. The TO-247AD through-hole package allows direct bolting to a heatsink, making it suitable for high-power designs that require efficient thermal management in harsh industrial environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the IXBH12N300 suitable for pulsed-power and medical imaging power supplies above 1000 V?
The IXBH12N300 is rated for a 3000 V collector-emitter voltage (VCES), which places it well above the capability of standard IGBTs that typically top out at 600 V or 1200 V. This high blocking voltage allows it to switch circuits operating directly from rectified mains voltages in 2× or 3× multiplier topologies used in X-ray generators and industrial pulse modulators, without requiring series-stacked lower-voltage devices.
Does the IXBH12N300 require an external freewheeling diode in an inverter bridge, and why?
No external freewheeling diode is needed because the IXBH12N300 includes a built-in anti-parallel diode in the same TO-247AD package. This integrated diode carries reverse inductive flyback current during the IGBT off-state in bridge inverter topologies, reducing the component count and PCB area compared to designs that use a discrete 3000 V diode externally, and it also simplifies thermal management since both devices share the same heatsink mounting surface.
What gate drive voltage and current are needed to fully switch the IXBH12N300 in a hard-switching topology?
The IXBH12N300 has a gate-emitter threshold voltage (VGE(th)) maximum of 5 V, so it begins to turn on at voltages above this level. For robust fully-on conduction, a positive gate voltage of +15 V is standard practice with IGBT gate drivers. Turning off the device reliably in high-voltage circuits typically requires a negative gate voltage of -5 V to -15 V to counteract Miller capacitance. The gate-emitter voltage must not exceed the ±20 V absolute maximum rating.
