Product details
Overview
400CNQ035 from Infineon Technologies is a center-tap, high-current Schottky rectifier module rated for 400 A total (200 A per leg), 35 V reverse voltage, 0.52 V forward voltage at 200 A and 125°C junction temperature, and operates up to 150°C. It serves as a low-loss freewheeling or output rectifier in high-power DC-DC converters and industrial welding equipment.
For engineers reviewing the 400CNQ035 datasheet, 400CNQ035 pinout, 400CNQ035 application, or 400CNQ035 equivalent, key selection criteria include its TO-244AB package thermal resistance (0.10°C/W per package), 29 kA non-repetitive surge rating, center-tap cathode configuration, and suitability for high-frequency switching with <5 nH series inductance per leg.
Technical Context
This device implements a dual-anode, common-cathode Schottky architecture with guard ring protection and high-purity epoxy encapsulation. Its barrier technology enables stable operation at 150°C junction temperature while maintaining low VF and moderate IR across temperature.
Designed for high-current DC paths, it supports rectangular waveform conduction with 50% duty cycle at TC = 114°C and withstands 10000 V/µs dv/dt. The 0.81 mΩ forward slope resistance and 10.3 nF junction capacitance per leg define its high-frequency switching behavior under hard-switched conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 35 V - Maximum DC reverse blocking voltage per leg; defines minimum system isolation margin against transients. |
| IF(AV) per leg | 200 A - Average forward current per anode leg under 50% duty cycle rectangular waveform at TC = 114°C. |
| VF @ 200 A, TJ = 125°C | 0.52 V - Confirmed forward drop per leg at rated current and elevated temperature; directly impacts conduction loss. |
| RthJC (per package) | 0.10 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance for the full module; enables high power dissipation with minimal ΔT. |
| IFSM @ 5 µs sine | 29,000 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current per leg; supports short-circuit robustness in welder or UPS inverters. |
| CT @ 5 V, 25°C | 10,300 pF - Junction capacitance per leg; sets high-frequency turn-off energy and EMI generation baseline. |
| LS per leg | 5.0 nH - Series inductance from terminal hole to mounting plane; limits di/dt-induced voltage overshoot in fast-switching topologies. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-244AB - Modified JEDEC outline, metal-base insulated package with two anode lugs and one common cathode lug, designed for direct heatsink mounting and high mechanical ruggedness.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current Schottky rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| VSKT400/035 | Same 35 V VRRM, TO-247-3L package; 0.55 V VF @ 200 A, 125°C; higher RthJC (0.25°C/W per leg). | Requires larger heatsink area due to higher thermal resistance; not center-tap configured. | Choose when board layout favors discrete TO-247 mounting over module baseplate integration. |
| IXYS DSSK40-03A | 30 V VRRM, dual common-cathode TO-247; 0.51 V VF @ 200 A, 125°C; 25 kA IFSM. | Limited to ≤30 V systems; lower surge rating reduces margin in welding applications. | Prefer for cost-sensitive 24–30 V systems where 35 V margin is unnecessary and center-tap topology is unused. |
Compared with VSKT400/035 and IXYS DSSK40-03A, the 400CNQ035 delivers superior thermal performance (0.10°C/W vs. ≥0.25°C/W), inherent center-tap capability for transformer-based topologies, and highest surge robustness (29 kA), making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability industrial rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable junction temperature for the 400CNQ035?
The 400CNQ035 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of 150°C, verified per Absolute Maximum Ratings in Bulletin PD-2.264 rev. D. This rating applies under all operating conditions including DC, pulsed, and surge conduction. Operation above 150°C risks permanent degradation of the Schottky barrier and encapsulation integrity. Thermal design must ensure TJ remains ≤150°C using the specified RthJC of 0.10°C/W (per package) and measured case temperature.
Does the 400CNQ035 support center-tapped transformer configurations?
Yes, the 400CNQ035 is explicitly designed as a center-tap module with two isolated anode terminals (Anode 1 and Anode 2) and a shared common cathode terminal. This configuration directly interfaces with center-tapped secondary windings in forward, push-pull, or half-bridge transformer topologies. The internal die layout and TO-244AB pinout maintain electrical isolation between anode legs while enabling symmetrical current sharing under balanced loading.
What is the forward voltage drop of the 400CNQ035 at full rated current and elevated temperature?
The 400CNQ035 exhibits a forward voltage drop (VF) of 0.52 V per leg at 200 A and junction temperature of 125°C, as confirmed in the Electrical Specifications table of Bulletin PD-2.264 rev. D. At 400 A total device current (200 A per leg), VF rises to 0.68 V per leg under the same thermal condition. These values are measured under DC or rectangular waveform conditions and define conduction loss boundaries for thermal modeling.
How does the 400CNQ035 handle surge current events?
The 400CNQ035 is rated for 29,000 A peak non-repetitive surge current (IFSM) per leg under 5 µs sine wave conditions, per Absolute Maximum Ratings. This capability supports short-circuit protection in welders and UPS systems. The device also sustains 3400 A for 10 ms sine pulses. Its guard ring structure and high-purity epoxy encapsulation prevent localized thermal runaway during such events, ensuring repeatable surge survivability without parameter drift.
What thermal resistance values apply to the 400CNQ035 package?
The 400CNQ035 specifies two key thermal resistances: RthJC = 0.10°C/W junction-to-case for the full package (not per leg), and RthJC = 0.20°C/W per leg. The 0.10°C/W value governs total power dissipation (up to ~40 W at 150°C ΔT), while the per-leg value applies when calculating individual leg heating. RthCS (case-to-heatsink) is 0.10°C/W with smooth, greased mounting surface - critical for achieving rated current in industrial enclosures.
