Product details
Overview
IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 57 mΩ silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET in PG-TO247-3 package with Kelvin source terminal, designed for high-efficiency hard-switching topologies including solar inverters and EV charging systems. It delivers 85 A peak drain current, 9.8 μJ output switching energy at 400 V, and operates up to 175 °C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 datasheet, IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 pinout, IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 application, or IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) temperature stability, commutation-robust body diode Qrr, Kelvin-source-enabled low switching losses, and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability.
Technical Context
This CoolSiC™ M1 generation device uses trench-gate SiC technology to achieve low gate charge (QG = 28 nC), low reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 11 pF), and fast switching (td(off) = 16.8 ns). Its Kelvin source configuration separates power and signal return paths to minimize gate loop inductance.
The MOSFET integrates a commutation-robust internal body diode with 113 nC forward recovery charge and 28 ns recovery time, enabling reliable operation in continuous hard-commutation circuits without external anti-parallel diodes in many cases.
Key Specifications

| RDS(on), typ | 57 mΩ at VGS = 18 V, Tj = 25 °C - Enables high-current conduction with low conduction loss |
| ID, peak | 85 A - Supports high-pulse current demands in boost and inverter legs |
| Qoss | 65 nC at VDS = 400 V - Low stored output charge reduces turn-off energy and Eoss |
| Eoss | 9.8 μJ at VDS = 400 V - Directly determines hard-switching turn-off loss in SMPS and inverters |
| Tj,max | 175 °C - Allows compact thermal design and operation in harsh ambient environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3M0065065K | RDS(on) = 65 mΩ (higher), QG = 22 nC (lower), TO247-4L package with dedicated Kelvin source pin | Requires 4-pin PCB layout; slightly higher conduction loss but lower gate drive loss | Preferred where gate drive efficiency dominates over conduction loss, e.g., very high-frequency resonant converters |
| STPSC65H065TV2 | RDS(on) = 65 mΩ, no Kelvin source, standard 3-pin TO247, QG = 32 nC | Lacks Kelvin source; higher switching losses and gate oscillation risk above 100 kHz | Suitable for cost-sensitive, lower-frequency (<60 kHz) industrial SMPS where layout simplicity outweighs efficiency gain |
Compared with C3M0065065K and STPSC65H065TV2, IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 offers the lowest RDS(on) in a 3-pin-compatible form factor while retaining Kelvin-source benefits-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-power-density 650 V systems needing both efficiency and layout compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-source voltage for continuous operation?
The maximum continuous gate-source voltage is 20 V, as specified in the operating range table. Exceeding this value may accelerate gate oxide degradation and increase RDS(on) drift over lifetime. Infineon recommends using 18 V for turn-on and 0 V for turn-off to balance switching speed and reliability.
Does IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 require a negative gate voltage for turn-off?
No. The device is fully compatible with 0 V turn-off and does not require negative gate bias. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 3.5 V to 5.7 V, ensuring robust noise immunity with zero-volt gate drive, simplifying driver design and eliminating need for bipolar supplies.
How is the Kelvin source implemented in this 3-pin TO247 package?
The Kelvin source is internally routed within the leadframe and shares the same external Pin 3 (Source) connection, but maintains a separate low-inductance bond wire path from the die source metallization to minimize gate loop inductance. This achieves ~4× lower effective Lgk versus standard 3-pin layouts without adding a fourth pin.
Is avalanche capability rated and tested for this part?
Yes. IMW65R057M1HXKSA1 is rated for 142 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) at ID = 5.3 A and VDS = 50 V, and 0.71 mJ repetitive avalanche energy. These values are production-tested per JEDEC JESD24-11, supporting robust operation during transient overvoltage events in industrial power systems.
