Product details
Overview
IDK06G65C5XTMA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 6 A silicon carbide Schottky diode in PG-TO263-2 package, featuring zero reverse recovery charge, 10 nC capacitive charge at 400 V, 2.1 µJ stored energy, and operation up to 175 °C junction temperature. It serves as a high-efficiency freewheeling or output rectifier in high-frequency SMPS and PFC stages.
For engineers reviewing the IDK06G65C5XTMA1 datasheet, IDK06G65C5XTMA1 pinout, IDK06G65C5XTMA1 application, or IDK06G65C5XTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 650 V VRRM, 1.5–2.2 V forward voltage across -55 °C to 150 °C, 1.5 K/W typical RthJC, surge capability of 54 A (10 ms), and SiC-specific benefits like temperature-independent switching and low EMI.
Technical Context
This 5th-generation thinQ!™ SiC Schottky diode uses Infineon's diffusion-soldered thin-wafer process to achieve lower QC × VF figure of merit versus prior generations. Its unipolar conduction eliminates minority-carrier storage, enabling true zero reverse recovery and stable switching behavior across -55 °C to 175 °C.
The device is optimized for co-packaging with 650 V CoolMOS™ MOSFETs in high-density power converters. Its 100 V/ns dv/dt ruggedness and 14 A²s i²t rating support robust operation under fast transient and surge conditions without snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 650 V - Maximum repetitive reverse blocking voltage; enables use in 400 V AC input PFC and 380 V DC bus systems. |
| IF | 6 A continuous - Rated at TC < 145 °C; supports 100 W–200 W converter output stages with minimal heatsinking. |
| QC | 10 nC at VR = 400 V - Low capacitive charge reduces turn-off losses and EMI in >100 kHz topologies. |
| VF | 1.5–2.2 V - Forward voltage range over full temperature and current range; enables higher efficiency than Si diodes at elevated temperatures. |
| RthJC | 1.5 K/W typ - Enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper; supports compact thermal design with 6 cm² cooling area. |
| IF,SM | 54 A (10 ms, TC = 25 °C) - High surge rating allows reliable inrush handling in UPS and solar inverter DC-link protection. |
| EC | 2.1 µJ at VR = 400 V - Stored capacitive energy directly impacts turn-off loss and ringing; low value improves hard-switching performance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D06065A (Wolfspeed) | Same 650 V/6 A rating; 12 nC QC, 1.7–2.3 V VF; TO-220AC package with non-isolated tab. | Higher thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.5 K/W); requires larger heatsink footprint in SMD layouts. | Prefer when through-hole mounting or legacy TO-220 footprint compatibility is required. |
| STPSC6H065 (STMicroelectronics) | 650 V/6 A; 11 nC QC, 1.6–2.1 V VF; same PG-TO263-2 package but with different marking and thermal pad layout. | Lower surge rating (IF,SM = 42 A @ 10 ms); less margin in high-inrush UPS designs. | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs surge margin needs and ST ecosystem integration is prioritized. |
Compared with C3D06065A and STPSC6H065, IDK06G65C5XTMA1 offers the lowest QC (10 nC) and best thermal resistance (1.5 K/W typ), making it optimal for space-constrained, high-frequency, high-reliability SMPS and solar inverters where thermal headroom and EMI control are critical.

FAQ
Is IDK06G65C5XTMA1 pin-compatible with previous-generation Infineon SiC diodes?
No. IDK06G65C5XTMA1 uses the PG-TO263-2 package with Pin 1 = Cathode and Pin 2 = Anode, but earlier thinQ!™ G3/G4 variants (e.g., IDK06G65C3) share the same pinout. However, G5 introduces thinner wafer and revised metallization - thermal and electrical performance differ, so layout and thermal design must be revalidated.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for thermal management?
Infineon specifies 6 cm² of 70 µm-thick copper on FR4 for optimal thermal performance. With this layout, RthJA drops to 35 K/W, enabling 6 A continuous operation at TC ≤ 145 °C. Smaller copper areas increase thermal resistance proportionally - e.g., minimal footprint yields RthJA ≈ 62 K/W.
Does IDK06G65C5XTMA1 require a gate driver or external bias circuit?
No. As a passive Schottky diode, IDK06G65C5XTMA1 has no gate terminal and requires no drive circuitry. It conducts when anode voltage exceeds cathode voltage by ≥1.5 V and blocks when reverse biased up to 650 V. Its unipolar nature eliminates control complexity inherent in active switches.
Can IDK06G65C5XTMA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but with strict layout symmetry. Parallel operation requires matched trace lengths, identical thermal vias, and shared copper pour to ensure current sharing within ±10%. Infineon confirms stable parallel behavior due to positive VF temperature coefficient, but derating to 5.4 A per device is advised for 2-unit parallel setups.
