Product details
Overview
D1050N18TXPSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a high-power, press-pack silicon rectifier diode designed for industrial AC/DC conversion in medium-voltage drive systems and traction inverters. It delivers 1050 A average on-state current at TC = 130 °C, supports 1800 V repetitive peak reverse voltage (VRRM), and withstands 24 kA surge current (IFSM) at 10 ms - enabling robust operation in 3-phase line-commutated rectifiers and grid-connected converters.
For engineers reviewing the D1050N18TXPSA1 datasheet, D1050N18TXPSA1 pinout, D1050N18TXPSA1 application, or D1050N18TXPSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.038 °C/W two-sided), forward voltage drop (1.76 V at 5 kA), recovery charge (Qr ≤ 100 µAs at 100 A), and clamping force requirements (10–24 kN) for reliable thermal interface integrity.
Technical Context
This device is a non-controlled, two-terminal power semiconductor with a single silicon pellet mounted in a pressure-contact package. Its conduction behavior follows a defined on-state characteristic (vF = A + B·iF + C·ln(iF) + D·iF²) and exhibits low slope resistance (rT = 0.17 mΩ) at Tvj max, ensuring predictable forward loss under high-current DC and phase-controlled AC conditions.
Thermal performance is highly dependent on mounting configuration: two-sided cooling yields the lowest RthJC (0.038 °C/W), while anode- or cathode-side-only cooling increases it to 0.064–0.085 °C/W. Transient thermal impedance data confirms suitability for short-duration overload pulses up to 20 half-waves at 50 Hz without exceeding 180 °C junction temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1800 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; defines usable DC bus voltage rating in rectifier bridges. |
| IFAVM @ TC=130°C | 1050 A - Continuous average forward current capability under forced two-sided cooling; sets base-load capacity. |
| IFRMS | 3140 A - RMS on-state current rating; determines thermal stress under sinusoidal or pulsed conduction. |
| IFSM (10 ms) | 24000 A - Peak non-repetitive surge current; enables survival during short-circuit events in motor drives. |
| vF @ 5 kA, Tvj max | 1.76 V - Forward voltage at full-rated pulse current; directly impacts conduction loss and heatsink sizing. |
| RthJC (two-sided) | 0.038 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; dictates minimum required heatsink thermal conductance. |
| Qr @ 100 A | ≤100 µAs - Recovered charge during turn-off; influences snubber design and commutation losses in phase-controlled rectifiers. |
Pinout & Package
Package: Press-pack, double-sided cooled, stud-mount diode with isolated anode and cathode terminals. Requires mechanical clamping force of 10–24 kN for optimal thermal and electrical contact. Weight: 280 g. Creepage distance: 25 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (1) | Forward current entry point | High-current input terminal; must be thermally and electrically coupled to heatsink via insulated mounting interface. |
| Cathode (2) | Forward current exit point | High-current output terminal; symmetrically mounted opposite anode for balanced thermal path in two-sided cooling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High surge current capability | 24 kA IFSM (10 ms) - Enables use in fault-prone industrial rectifier applications without derating. |
| Low forward voltage slope resistance | 0.17 mΩ rT - Reduces conduction loss variance across operating current range, improving efficiency predictability. |
| Defined on-state characteristic equation | vF = −0.6685 + 2.114×10⁻⁴·iF + 0.2752·ln(iF) − 0.01385·iF² - Allows precise loss modeling in system-level thermal simulations. |
| Two-sided thermal optimization | RthJC = 0.038 °C/W - Supports compact, high-power-density converter designs when both terminals are actively cooled. |
| Controlled recovery behavior | Qr ≤ 100 µAs at 100 A - Limits reverse recovery energy dissipation, reducing snubber component stress in line-commutated circuits. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-power rectifier diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| DD900N18K | Lower IFAVM (900 A @ TC=130°C); identical VRRM (1800 V); higher RthJC (0.042 °C/W two-sided). | Suitable for lower-base-load applications where 150 A margin is acceptable and thermal interface is less optimized. | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs marginal derating need and existing heatsink design cannot accommodate tighter thermal resistance. |
| D1100N18TXPSA1 | Higher IFAVM (1100 A @ TC=130°C); same VRRM, RthJC, and Qr; requires 12–26 kN clamping force. | Used in next-generation traction converters requiring extended continuous current headroom without changing footprint. | Choose for new designs targeting >10% current margin or where long-term reliability under sustained overload is prioritized. |
Compared with D1050N18TXPSA1, DD900N18K trades 150 A current capacity for slightly relaxed thermal interface demands, while D1100N18TXPSA1 extends continuous current capability within identical thermal and voltage constraints - making the latter ideal for future-proofed industrial drive platforms.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable clamping force for D1050N18TXPSA1?
The specified clamping force range is 10–24 kN. Exceeding 24 kN risks pellet fracture or metallization damage, while forces below 10 kN increase contact resistance and thermal impedance beyond rated limits. Force must be applied uniformly across both terminals using calibrated torque tools and flat, parallel mounting surfaces.
Can D1050N18TXPSA1 be used with single-sided cooling?
Yes, but with significant derating: RthJC rises to 0.064 °C/W (anode-side) or 0.085 °C/W (cathode-side), reducing maximum IFAVM by ~35–45% at TC = 130 °C. Single-sided use is only recommended for short-duration duty cycles or where mechanical constraints prohibit dual-interface mounting.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qr) at 1600 A?
Per the datasheet Qr diagram, at iFM = 1600 A and Tvj = Tvj max, Qr is approximately 1000 µAs for -di/dt = 100 A/µs. This value scales nonlinearly with current and di/dt - system-level snubber design must reference the full Qr vs. -di/dt curve on page 7, not extrapolate from lower-current points.
Does D1050N18TXPSA1 meet AEC-Q101 qualification?
No. This device is qualified per industrial standards (IEC 60747-2) and Infineon's internal high-reliability test program for power modules, but it is not AEC-Q101 certified. It is intended for industrial, traction, and energy infrastructure - not automotive passenger safety systems.
