Product details
Overview
AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 from Infineon is a 1200 V, 22 A (TC = 25 °C) SiC trench MOSFET with Kelvin source pin, RDS(on) = 117–150 mΩ at 25 °C and VGS(on) = 20 V, qualified per AEC-Q101 for automotive on-board chargers and DC/DC converters operating up to 175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 datasheet, AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 pinout, AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 application, or AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.5 µs short-circuit withstand time at 20 V gate drive, Crss/Ciss ratio < 0.002, 7.07 mm minimum creepage distance, and low Eon/Eoff (44 µJ / 36 µJ at 25 °C) enabling high-frequency, high-efficiency HV power conversion.
Technical Context
This CoolSiC™ Gen1p device uses trench-gate SiC technology with .XT die attach and a dedicated Kelvin source terminal to decouple power and sensing paths-enabling precise gate control and minimizing dynamic RDS(on) rise during switching. Its high VGS(th) (3.7–5.1 V) and ultra-low Crss (1 pF) suppress parasitic turn-on under high dv/dt.
The MOSFET delivers best-in-class switching energy (80 µJ total at 25 °C, 800 V, 7 A), supported by low Ciss (458 pF), Coss (25 pF), and QGtot (18 nC), allowing operation beyond 100 kHz while maintaining thermal stability via Rth(j–c) = 0.87 K/W.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 1200 V - supports 800 V DC-link systems with 1.5× safety margin for automotive traction and industrial HV DC/DC. |
| RDS(on) | 117–150 mΩ @ 25 °C, VGS = 20 V - enables low conduction loss in 10–25 kW OBC stages with minimal heatsink requirement. |
| QGtot | 18 nC - reduces gate driver power consumption and allows use of compact, cost-effective 2 W drivers. |
| Eon/Eoff | 44 µJ / 36 µJ @ 25 °C - lowers switching losses by >30% vs. comparable Si IGBTs, enabling higher frequency and smaller magnetics. |
| tSC | 1.5 µs @ VGS = 20 V - provides robust fault handling in unidirectional OBC boost stages without external desat detection. |
| Crss/Ciss | 1 pF / 458 pF - ratio < 0.002 ensures immunity to Miller-induced false turn-on in high dv/dt bridge configurations. |
| Rth(j–c) | 0.87 K/W - enables 133 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C, supporting high-power density packaging in TO-247-4. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO247-4-U03 - 4-pin through-hole package with isolated Kelvin source terminal for accurate gate control and minimized source inductance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 – Drain | Main high-side power path | Connected to HV DC bus; carries full load current and withstands 1200 V blocking. |
| 2 – Source | Power return path | Carries main current to ground/power rail; routed separately from Kelvin source to avoid voltage drop interference. |
| 3 – Kelvin Sense Contact | Gate reference feedback | Provides low-inductance, low-noise source reference to gate driver, eliminating source inductance impact on switching timing and stability. |
| 4 – Gate | Control input | Receives 20 V turn-on signal; designed for unipolar drive with no negative bias required due to high VGS(th) and low Crss. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 1200 V SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wolfspeed C3M0120100K | RDS(on) = 120 mΩ (typ.), QG = 22 nC, no Kelvin source, TO247-3L package | Lacks Kelvin sense; requires careful layout to mitigate source inductance-induced oscillation in DAB OBCs | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs need for highest switching fidelity in lower-power (<6 kW) OBCs |
| ROHM SCT3120ALHRL | RDS(on) = 128 mΩ (typ.), tSC = 1.2 µs, VGS(th) = 5.5 V (min), TO247-4L | Higher VGS(th) improves noise immunity but limits gate drive flexibility; lower tSC reduces fault margin | Prefer where system-level overvoltage protection is already implemented and layout constraints limit Kelvin routing |
Compared with C3M0120100K and SCT3120ALHRL, AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 uniquely combines Kelvin source, 1.5 µs short-circuit rating, and sub-2 pF Crss to deliver superior switching robustness and layout tolerance in automotive HV power stages requiring AEC-Q101 compliance.

FAQ
What gate drive voltage is required for optimal performance?
AIMZH120R120M1TXKSA1 is characterized for 20 V turn-on and 0 V turn-off. Using 20 V minimizes RDS(on) and maximizes short-circuit withstand time (1.5 µs). Driving at 18 V increases RDS(on) by ~8% and extends tSC to 2 µs, but 20 V is recommended per Infineon's AN2018-09 for long-term reliability and thermal stability.
Does this MOSFET require negative gate voltage for turn-off?
No. The device features a high VGS(th) (3.7–5.1 V) and ultra-low Crss (1 pF), enabling robust unipolar gate driving with 0 V turn-off. Negative bias is not required and is not recommended-Infineon specifies VGS(off) = 0 V in Table 3 of the datasheet to avoid gate oxide stress.
How does the Kelvin source pin improve switching behavior?
The Kelvin source pin provides a dedicated low-inductance return path for the gate driver, isolating it from main-source current transients. This eliminates voltage spikes across source inductance that cause delayed turn-off and false turn-on-critical for stable operation in high-di/dt DAB and PSFB topologies.
Is this part suitable for non-automotive industrial applications?
Yes. While AEC-Q101 qualified, the device's 175 °C max junction temperature, 7.07 mm creepage, and robust RBSOA make it equally suitable for industrial UPS, solar string inverters, and EV charging infrastructure where high reliability and HV isolation are required.
