Product details
Overview
IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 from Infineon is a 400 V, 15.0 mΩ silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET in PG-TO263-7 package, rated for 111 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It features a benchmark gate threshold voltage of 4.5 V, 100% avalanche tested construction, and commutation-robust fast body diode optimized for synchronous rectification in high-frequency SMPS and solar PV inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 datasheet, IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 pinout, IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 application, or IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low RDS(on) temperature stability, low Qoss (363 pF), fast switching (td(off) = 26.5 ns), and validated thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.44 °C/W) for high-power-density designs.
Technical Context
This CoolSiC™ G2 MOSFET employs trench-gate SiC technology with optimized charge distribution to achieve low gate-to-drain capacitance (Crss = 24 pF) and minimal Miller plateau voltage dependency. Its 400 V rating targets mid-voltage industrial power conversion where IGBTs are over-specified and standard Si MOSFETs lack efficiency.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode with low forward recovery charge (Qfr = 86–173 nC) and fast tfr (11.0–17.1 ns), enabling zero-voltage switching (ZVS) operation without external anti-parallel diodes in resonant topologies like LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 400 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 380 V AC input systems after derating, supporting 400 V bus architectures in solar inverters and UPS. |
| RDS(on), typ | 15.0 mΩ at VGS = 18 V, ID = 27.1 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 100 A, critical for >99% efficiency in 5–20 kW converters. |
| ID, cont | 111 A at TC = 25 °C - Sustains high output current in compact heatsink designs due to low RthJC (0.44 °C/W). |
| Qg, total | 62 nC - Low gate charge reduces driver power requirement and enables >500 kHz switching with standard gate drivers. |
| Eoss | 7.3 μJ - Energy-related output capacitance supports soft-switching transitions with predictable turn-off losses. |
| td(off) | 26.5 ns - Fast turn-off delay minimizes dead-time losses and improves control loop bandwidth in digital PWM controllers. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO263-7 (D²PAK-7L), surface-mount, thermally enhanced with exposed drain tab for direct PCB copper cooling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain Tab | Main power drain connection | Exposed metal pad soldered to large PCB copper area; primary thermal path and high-current return path. |
| Pin 1 | Power Source (Source) | Driver-side source terminal; used for Kelvin source sensing to eliminate source inductance impact on gate drive. |
| Pin 2 | Driver Source | Isolated Kelvin source for gate driver reference; decouples gate loop from power loop to suppress oscillation. |
| Pins 3–7 | Gate | Parallel-connected gate inputs to reduce effective gate resistance (RG = 2.8–4.2 Ω) and improve parallel drive capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Commutation-robust body diode | Low Qfr (86–173 nC) and fast tfr (11–17 ns) enable reliable ZVS in hard-commutated synchronous rectifiers without snubbers. |
| Thermal performance | RthJC = 0.44 °C/W allows 341 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C - 2.3× higher than standard TO-263 Si MOSFETs. |
| Gate drive compatibility | VGS(th) = 3.5–5.6 V and recommended VGS = 0–18 V support standard 15 V gate drivers without negative bias circuitry. |
| Avalanche ruggedness | 100% production-tested single-pulse EAS = 162 mJ ensures robustness against inductive switching transients in motor drives and UPS. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-frequency SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wolfspeed C3M0015090D | RDS(on) = 15 mΩ at 25 °C but higher VGS(th) (5.5–7.5 V); no Kelvin source pins. | Lacks dedicated driver source pin → requires careful layout to avoid gate oscillation at >300 kHz. | Prefer IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 when gate drive stability and layout simplicity are critical in high-volume production. |
| ROHM SCT3015AL | Same RDS(on) and VDS, but lower Qg (52 nC); only 4-pin TO-247 package with higher RthJC (0.75 °C/W). | Higher thermal resistance limits continuous current to 85 A at same case temperature, reducing power density. | Prefer IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 for space-constrained PCBs requiring >100 A conduction with minimal heatsink volume. |
Compared with C3M0015090D and SCT3015AL, IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 uniquely combines Kelvin-source packaging, industry-lowest RthJC, and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability-making it optimal for high-reliability, high-power-density 400 V systems where thermal management and gate drive integrity are design-critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate drive voltage for IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1?
The datasheet specifies a static gate-source voltage range of –7 V to +23 V and a transient limit of –10 V to +25 V for ≤500 ns pulses. For reliable long-term operation, Infineon recommends 0 V to +18 V for turn-off and turn-on, respectively-avoiding negative bias unless required for noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments.
Does IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 require a negative gate voltage to prevent spurious turn-on?
No. With a typical gate threshold voltage of 4.5 V and tight distribution (3.5–5.6 V), the device exhibits high noise immunity. The recommended 0 V turn-off voltage is sufficient under normal PCB layout conditions; negative bias is optional and only advised in ultra-high-noise motor drive gate loops with >50 V/ns dV/dt.
How is the Kelvin source pin (Pin 2) intended to be used in layout?
Pin 2 must connect directly to the gate driver IC's source reference (not the power source node) via a short, low-inductance trace. This isolates the gate drive return path from high di/dt power currents, eliminating source inductance-induced gate voltage undershoot and ensuring clean switching waveforms above 300 kHz.
Can IMBG40R015M2HXTMA1 replace silicon IGBTs in existing 400 V inverter designs?
Yes-with gate drive and layout adaptations. Its lower RDS(on), faster switching, and reduced tail current eliminate IGBT-specific snubbers and gate drive complexity. However, PCB copper area for the drain tab must be increased to match the thermal performance, and dead time must be reduced by ~30% to accommodate faster switching edges.
