Product details
Overview
IDH02G120C5XKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 5th Generation CoolSiC™ 1200 V, 2 A silicon carbide Schottky diode in PG-TO220-2-1 package, featuring 14 nC total capacitive charge, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, and no reverse recovery current-designed for high-efficiency power conversion in solar inverters and industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the IDH02G120C5XKSA1 datasheet, IDH02G120C5XKSA1 pinout, IDH02G120C5XKSA1 application, or IDH02G120C5XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1200 V repetitive peak reverse voltage, temperature-independent switching, tight VF distribution (1.4–1.65 V at 2 A/25 °C), dv/dt ruggedness (150 V/ns), and qualified JEDEC reliability for harsh industrial environments.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces conventional silicon fast recovery diodes in high-voltage DC-link applications, eliminating reverse recovery losses and enabling >100 kHz switching without commutation loss penalties. Its unipolar conduction mechanism ensures zero Qrr and stable VF across –55 °C to 175 °C operating range.
The device uses planar SiC die with optimized edge termination for 1200 V blocking capability and exhibits low Rth(j-c) of 1.54–2 K/W, supporting high-power-density thermal design. Its 14 nC QC at VR = 800 V / Tj = 150 °C directly reduces turn-on losses in hard-switched totem-pole PFC stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1200 V - supports DC-link voltages up to 1000 V bus in solar inverters and UPS systems |
| IF | 2 A continuous - rated for steady-state conduction at TC = 168 °C with D = 1 duty cycle |
| QC | 14 nC - enables low-loss snubberless operation in high-frequency totem-pole PFC and LLC resonant converters |
| Tj,max | 175 °C - allows full-rated operation in compact heatsink designs without derating at ambient >85 °C |
| VF @ 2 A / 25 °C | 1.4–1.65 V - delivers lower conduction loss than Si FRD equivalents while maintaining tight process spread |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 150 V/ns - withstands fast voltage transients in IGBT/SiC half-bridge configurations without false turn-on |
| Rth(j-c) | 1.54–2 K/W - enables direct mounting to heatsink with minimal thermal interface resistance penalty |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO220-2-1 package with isolated metal tab (cathode-connected backside) and two leads: Pin 1 and backside are cathode; Pin 2 is anode. Mounting via M3/M4 screw with 0.7 Nm torque.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Cathode | Primary cathode connection; electrically tied to metal tab for low-inductance heat path and EMI reduction |
| Backside (metal tab) | Cathode | Thermally and electrically connected to cathode; requires insulated mounting in non-isolated topologies |
| Pin 2 | Anode | Single-point anode lead; designed for low-parasitic PCB layout in high-di/dt applications |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 1200 V SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D02065E (Wolfspeed) | 650 V rating, 2 A, TO-220-2 package; lower VRRM but identical QC (14 nC) | Restricted to 600 V DC-link systems; unsuitable for 1000 V solar or UPS | Select only when system VDC ≤ 650 V and footprint compatibility is required |
| STPSC2H12D (STMicroelectronics) | 1200 V, 2 A, TO-220AC package; higher VF (1.7 V typ. @ 2 A/25 °C), QC = 16 nC | Acceptable in cost-sensitive industrial drives where 0.2 V higher VF is tolerable | Prefer when thermal margin exists and JEDEC qualification is not mandatory |
Compared with C3D02065E and STPSC2H12D, IDH02G120C5XKSA1 uniquely combines 1200 V rating, 14 nC QC, and JEDEC qualification-making it the only option for high-reliability 1000 V solar inverters requiring guaranteed dv/dt ruggedness and surge robustness.

FAQ
Is IDH02G120C5XKSA1 RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes. IDH02G120C5XKSA1 features Pb-free lead plating and meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU requirements. The device is qualified per J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and does not require baking prior to reflow soldering.
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The maximum continuous case temperature is 168 °C at 100% duty cycle (D = 1), corresponding to 2 A forward current. At lower duty cycles (e.g., D = 0.5), case temperature may rise to 175 °C while maintaining rated current, per Figure 2 in the datasheet.
Can IDH02G120C5XKSA1 be paralleled with other diodes for higher current handling?
Yes, but only with matched units from the same wafer lot due to tight VF distribution (±50 mV). Parallel operation requires symmetrical PCB layout, identical thermal paths, and current-sharing resistors if operating above 3 A total RMS current.
Does this diode require a gate resistor or snubber circuit?
No. As a Schottky diode with no minority-carrier storage, IDH02G120C5XKSA1 has no gate and requires no snubber. Its 150 V/ns dv/dt ruggedness and low QC enable direct use in hard-switched topologies without external damping components.
