Si IGBT(1600V)：STMicroelectronics STGWA30IH160DF2 Overview analysis report


Package	Internal Layout

Report Overview

IGBTs are capable of highly efficient switching operations and are therefore also used as switching elements in inverter circuits in home appliances such as induction cookers, microwave ovens, and rice cookers.
In 2023, STMicroelectronics released a 1350V IGBT as part of its “STPOWER IH2” series of IGBTs for induction cookers. Furthermore, in July 2025, the company announced a new 1600V IGBT to provide resistance to large voltage surges and voltage spikes.
The STPOWER IH2 series features low saturation voltage (VCE(sat)) and reduced turn-on losses, which are said to contribute to improved power conversion efficiency.
　LTEC released a report on this 1600V IGBT, which includes a cross-section observation of the cell array and die periphery.
