IXBK64N250

The IXBK64N250 is a high-voltage N-channel insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) from Littelfuse, built for demanding power switching in industrial and high-reliability systems. Housed in a TO-264 package, this discrete device delivers a 2500 V collector-emitter voltage rating and a collector current of 64 A, using advanced non-punch-through (NPT) or field-stop technology to achieve a low on-state voltage drop and fast switching characteristics. The large TO-264 plastic package provides excellent thermal dissipation, extended creepage and clearance distances, and high isolation capability, making it well-suited for elevated-voltage circuits where reliability under stress is critical.

Typical end uses include high-voltage power supplies, induction heating, industrial motor drives, pulsed power, and traction inverters, as well as medical imaging and renewable energy conversion equipment. In aerospace and defense platforms, the device supports applications such as radar modulators and laser drivers where rugged switching at high voltage is essential. From a procurement perspective, the IXBK series is part of Littelfuse’s long-lifecycle power semiconductor portfolio, but verification of factory lead times, minimum order quantities, and any applicable end-of-life notices through authorized distribution is advised. While the standard part is industrial-grade, custom screening, conformal coating, or bare die options may be available for programs requiring enhanced traceability or environmental tolerance. Proper heatsinking and derating per the manufacturer’s datasheet remain imperative to ensure safe junction temperatures during sustained high-voltage operation.
