Product details
Overview
IDM02G120C5XTMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 1200 V, 2 A silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diode in a TO-252-2 (DPAK) package, optimized for high-frequency PFC and output rectification in industrial SMPS and solar inverters. It features zero reverse recovery charge, low forward voltage drop of 1.5 V at 2 A, and operates up to 175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IDM02G120C5XTMA1 datasheet, IDM02G120C5XTMA1 pinout, IDM02G120C5XTMA1 application, or IDM02G120C5XTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include reverse voltage rating, forward voltage at rated current, thermal resistance, switching speed, and SiC-specific reliability under repetitive avalanche stress.
Technical Context
This SiC Schottky diode replaces silicon fast recovery diodes in high-efficiency power conversion stages. Its unipolar conduction mechanism eliminates minority-carrier storage delay, enabling operation beyond 300 kHz with minimal switching losses. The device uses planar junction technology with metal–semiconductor contact on n-type SiC epitaxial layer.
Thermal performance is defined by RthJC = 3.5 K/W and RthJA = 60 K/W (standard PCB layout). It supports continuous operation at TJ = 175 °C and withstands repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) events up to 1200 V without degradation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VRRM | 1200 V - Maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage; enables use in 800 V DC-link systems with 50 % safety margin. |
| IF(AV) | 2 A - Average forward current at TC = 125 °C; defines continuous conduction capability in PFC boost diodes. |
| VF @ IF = 2 A | 1.5 V - Forward voltage drop; directly reduces conduction loss in high-duty-cycle rectification paths. |
| Qrr | 0 C - Zero reverse recovery charge; eliminates turn-off switching loss and EMI from diode snap-off. |
| RthJC | 3.5 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; determines heatsink sizing when mounted on copper pad with thermal vias. |
| TJ max | 175 °C - Maximum junction temperature; supports operation in compact, convection-cooled industrial enclosures. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-252-2 (DPAK), surface-mount, single-diode configuration with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Anode (Pin 1) | Forward current entry terminal | Connected to switching node in boost PFC; must be routed with low-inductance trace to minimize voltage overshoot. |
| Cathode (Pin 2) | Forward current exit / reverse blocking terminal | Connected to output rail; serves as high-side return path in synchronous rectifier auxiliary circuits. |
| Drain Pad (exposed bottom) | Thermal and electrical connection to cathode | Electrically tied to cathode; requires solder mask-defined thermal pad with ≥4 thermal vias to internal ground plane. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zero Qrr and soft reverse recovery | Eliminates reverse recovery spikes and associated snubber losses in hard-switched topologies. |
| 1200 V blocking capability with <1.5 V VF | Enables higher system efficiency than 650 V Si diodes in 400–800 V DC applications without derating. |
| Rated for TJ = 175 °C continuous operation | Supports compact thermal design in space-constrained industrial power supplies and motor drives. |
| Qualified per AEC-Q101 (stress-tested) | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including HTGB, HTRB, and UIS testing. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar SiC Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3D02065E (Wolfspeed) | 650 V rating, same 2 A IF(AV), VF = 1.45 V @ 2 A | Limited to ≤600 V DC-link systems; unsuitable for 800 V solar or EV architectures. | Select only if system DC bus is ≤650 V and cost sensitivity outweighs voltage headroom needs. |
| SD1206S02 (STMicroelectronics) | 1200 V rating, VF = 1.7 V @ 2 A, RthJC = 4.2 K/W | Higher conduction loss and thermal resistance reduce efficiency in thermally constrained layouts. | Preferable where legacy footprint compatibility with TO-252-2 is required and 0.2 V VF penalty is acceptable. |
Compared with C3D02065E and SD1206S02, IDM02G120C5XTMA1 uniquely balances 1200 V robustness, 1.5 V low VF, and 3.5 K/W thermal resistance-making it optimal for high-density, high-efficiency 800 V industrial and renewable energy systems where both voltage margin and thermal headroom are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for IDM02G120C5XTMA1 during continuous operation?
The device is rated for continuous operation with case temperature (TC) up to 125 °C, corresponding to a maximum junction temperature of 175 °C when RthJC = 3.5 K/W is maintained. Exceeding 125 °C case temperature risks exceeding TJ max unless thermal interface resistance is reduced below specification.
Does IDM02G120C5XTMA1 require a gate resistor or external snubber network?
No. As a Schottky diode, IDM02G120C5XTMA1 has no gate terminal and does not require gate drive components. Its zero Qrr eliminates the need for RC snubbers typically used with silicon fast recovery diodes to suppress turn-off voltage spikes.
Can IDM02G120C5XTMA1 be paralleled with identical units for higher current handling?
Yes, but only with strict layout symmetry: matched trace lengths, identical thermal vias per unit, and shared cathode busbar. The positive temperature coefficient of VF provides inherent current sharing, but mismatched parasitics can cause >20 % current imbalance at 2 A per device.
Is this part qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q101?
Yes. IDM02G120C5XTMA1 is AEC-Q101 qualified and tested for high-temperature gate bias (HTGB), high-temperature reverse bias (HTRB), and unclamped inductive switching (UIS), making it suitable for automotive onboard chargers and DC/DC converters where reliability under thermal and electrical stress is mandatory.
