Safe Operating Area
Typical Applications
FF2000R17T2P8 is suitable for 6 applications: Wind Turbine Converters, Medium-Voltage and Large Industrial Motor Drives, Traction Power Conversion, High-Power Industrial Power Supplies, Solar Central Inverters, Test and High-Power Conversion Rigs.
Wind Turbine Converters
The FF2000R17T2P8 fits wind turbine full-power and doubly-fed converters where 1700 V DC links and multi-hundred-kilowatt ratings are standard. Its 2000 A continuous collector current and low-inductive XHP 2 housing keep turn-off overshoot controlled at high DC-bus voltages, while the soft-recovering EC8 diode limits reverse-recovery EMI in the grid-side inverter. The integrated NTC supports converter-level thermal derating. Place the module on a liquid-cooled or large-finned heatsink with the datasheet screw torque and TIM to hold junction temperature within limits at full converter load.
Recommended
Medium-Voltage and Large Industrial Motor Drives
Large industrial drives benefit from the FF2000R17T2P8's low VCE(sat) TRENCHSTOP IGBT8 dies, which cut conduction losses at high output current, and the short-circuit robustness needed for drive fault conditions. In a three-phase inverter, three half-bridge modules form the output stage; the XHP 2 low stray inductance allows higher switching frequency with reduced snubber needs, improving waveform quality. Gate drivers with desaturation protection and the module NTC provide layered fault protection. Verify per-IGBT thermal resistance against drive load profiles for reliable continuous operation.
Recommended
Traction Power Conversion
Rail traction inverters operating from 1500-1700 V DC links are a natural fit for this 1700 V, 2000 A module. The trench field-stop IGBT8 technology reduces total switching and conduction losses, directly improving traction system efficiency and cooling requirements, while the scalable XHP 2 platform lets OEMs reuse mechanical and driver designs across power variants. The EC8 diode's soft recovery keeps EMI within limits in the converter cabinet. Designers must validate vibration, thermal cycling, and railway qualification requirements with Infineon before design-in.
Recommended
High-Power Industrial Power Supplies
High-current rectifiers, DC fast-charger front ends, and electrolysis supplies use half-bridge stages where the FF2000R17T2P8's 2000 A rating minimizes device count and paralleling complexity. The XHP 2 package's low internal inductance supports hard-switched and resonant topologies with lower ringing, and the NTC simplifies thermal supervision in sealed cabinets. Because conduction losses dominate at high current, operate at reduced switching frequency and verify heatsink sizing from datasheet thermal resistance and measured loss data for the target load cycle.
Recommended
Solar Central Inverters
Utility-scale solar central inverters built around 1500 V DC systems benefit from 1700 V IGBT margin. The FF2000R17T2P8's high current rating allows fewer parallel legs, reducing complexity and failure points, while IGBT8 low switching losses raise conversion efficiency at the inverter's mid-frequency PWM range. The EC8 diode handles the freewheeling currents of the grid-tied bridge with soft recovery. In deployment, NTC-based thermal monitoring plus properly torqued, flat heatsink mounting are essential for 25-year service life targets.
Recommended
Test and High-Power Conversion Rigs
Grid emulation, battery cyclers, and motor test benches use reconfigurable half-bridge stages where the FF2000R17T2P8 provides 1700 V / 2000 A headroom. The XHP 2 platform's clean switching behavior improves measurement fidelity in test systems, and the NTC enables closed-loop thermal protection during destructive or boundary testing. Because bench systems cycle loads rapidly, use conservative junction-temperature targets and verify the datasheet thermal impedance curves against the test duty cycle to avoid fatigue failures of the module stack.

Key Differentiators
- Highest current in the 1700 V XHP 2 IGBT family (vs FF1400R17T2P8)
- IGBT8 simplicity vs CoolSiC drive requirements (vs FF2000XTR17T4M1)
- Proven silicon platform reuse (vs FF1400R17T2P8)
Design Notes
Gate drive is critical at 2000 A-class IGBT8 dies. Use an isolated driver with high peak current (several A), a Miller clamp to prevent parasitic turn-on, and desaturation-based short-circuit protection within the datasheet short-circuit withstand window. Split gate/emitter Kelvin connections (aux emitter pins) to keep driver loop inductance minimal, and use separate, isolated supplies per switch to satisfy the 1700 V isolation requirement between high-side and low-side drivers.
Size the heatsink from the per-IGBT RthJC in the Infineon datasheet plus your conduction and switching loss estimates at the actual switching frequency and load profile. Mount on a flat (typically <= 50 um flatness) surface with specified screw torque sequence and recommended thermal interface material. Use the integrated NTC for real-time derating: it measures near the IGBT junction region and should trigger alarm/shutdown thresholds in the controller firmware.
Minimize DC-link loop stray inductance between bus capacitors and module terminals to limit turn-off voltage overshoot within the 1700 V rating; XHP 2's low internal inductance means external loop inductance dominates. Laminated busbars and closely placed DC-link capacitors are recommended. Where overshoot margins are tight, consider snubbers or reduced gate resistance (trading switching loss) rather than exceeding VCES.
