Product details
Overview
IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 from Infineon is a 650 V, 72 mΩ silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET in PG-TO247-3 package with Kelvin source configuration, rated for 69 A peak drain current and 115 W power dissipation at 25 °C. It features low Qoss (52 nC), fast commutation-robust body diode (tfr = 53 ns), and 175 °C maximum junction temperature-designed for high-efficiency, high-frequency hard-switching topologies including solar PV inverters and EV charging infrastructure.
For engineers reviewing the IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 datasheet, IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 pinout, IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 application, or IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) temperature stability, dv/dt ruggedness (200 V/ns), gate oxide reliability at 23 V max static VGS, and Kelvin-source-enabled reduction of switching losses in high-current PFC and DC-DC stages.
Technical Context
This CoolSiC™ M1-generation trench MOSFET uses silicon carbide substrate to deliver wide-bandgap advantages: reduced conduction and switching losses versus silicon counterparts, minimal RDS(on) drift over temperature (72 mΩ typ @ 25 °C, 94 mΩ max @ 175 °C), and intrinsic avalanche capability (114 mJ single-pulse). Its Kelvin source terminal separates power and signal return paths to eliminate source inductance effects during turn-off.
The device operates with recommended VGS(on) = 18 V and VGS(off) = 0 V, supports standard gate drivers, and maintains stable threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 3.5–5.7 V) across lifetime under JEDEC-qualified industrial stress conditions. Dynamic parameters-including Ciss = 744 pF, Crss = 9 pF, and QG = 22 nC-are optimized for ZVS and resonant converter operation up to 200 kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 650 V - blocking rating suitable for 400 V DC bus systems with 50% safety margin |
| RDS(on), typ | 72 mΩ @ VGS = 18 V, ID = 13.3 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 15 A |
| Qoss | 52 nC @ VDS = 400 V - low stored output charge reduces turn-off energy (Eoss = 7.8 μJ) |
| ID, peak | 69 A - supports high-current pulse handling in boost PFC and LLC primary switches |
| Tj,max | 175 °C - allows compact heatsinking in high-power-density SMPS and UPS designs |

| QG | 22 nC - compatible with 1.8 Ω external gate resistor for controlled 14.6 ns rise time |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO247-3 (standard through-hole, non-isolated tab). The drain is connected to the metal tab for direct thermal mounting; gate and source pins are on the lead frame. Kelvin source configuration uses separate source terminals for power and gate loop return.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main power drain connection and thermal path | Electrically and thermally coupled to heatsink; requires insulating pad if mounting to grounded chassis |
| Gate (Pin 1) | Control input for channel modulation | Low-impedance gate drive path; must be routed away from high-dI/dt loops to prevent coupling |
| Source (Pin 3) | Power source reference for main current path | High-current return; connects to bulk capacitor negative or low-side shunt |
| Kelvin Source (Pin 2) | Signal reference for gate driver feedback | Carries only gate loop current; connects directly to driver ground to eliminate source inductance effect |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Kelvin source configuration | Reduces effective gate loop inductance by >75%, enabling 4× lower switching losses vs. standard TO-247 |
| Commutation-robust body diode | tfr = 53 ns and Qfr = 90 nC support zero-voltage switching in hard-commutated totem-pole PFC |
| JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability | Validated per JESD47/22 standards for 15+ year field life at 175 °C junction temperature |
| Low Crss/Ciss ratio | Crss = 9 pF / Ciss = 744 pF = 0.012 - improves Miller immunity and dV/dt noise rejection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 650 V SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3M0075120K | RDS(on) = 75 mΩ, same VDS, no Kelvin source, TO247-4L package | Lacks dedicated Kelvin source; higher switching losses in >50 A applications | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs 5–10% efficiency gain and layout space permits larger gate loop control |
| STPSC8065DL | RDS(on) = 80 mΩ, planar SiC structure, TO220AC package, no Kelvin source | Lower thermal performance (Rth(j-c) = 2.5 °C/W), limited to ≤30 A continuous use | Select for lower-cost, lower-power (<5 kW) PFC stages where footprint and thermal budget allow trade-offs |
Compared with C3M0075120K and STPSC8065DL, IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 delivers superior switching efficiency in high-current, high-frequency applications due to its Kelvin source architecture and lower Qoss, while maintaining JEDEC industrial qualification and 175 °C operation-making it optimal for mission-critical 10–100 kW power systems.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the Kelvin source pin in IMW65R072M1HXKSA1?
The Kelvin source pin (Pin 2) provides a dedicated low-inductance return path for the gate driver circuit, isolating it from high-current source switching transients. This eliminates voltage spikes induced by source inductance during turn-off, improving switching controllability and reducing EMI. It is not intended for power current conduction-main source current flows through Pin 3.
Can IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 be driven with a standard silicon MOSFET gate driver?
Yes-IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 is compatible with standard ±15 V gate drivers due to its 23 V maximum static VGS rating and 18 V recommended turn-on voltage. However, optimal performance requires minimizing gate loop inductance and using the Kelvin source connection. Gate resistor selection (e.g., 1.8 Ω) should target ~15 ns rise/fall times per datasheet test conditions.
How does the body diode performance compare to silicon alternatives?
The integrated body diode exhibits tfr = 53 ns and Qfr = 90 nC-significantly faster and lower recovery charge than silicon superjunction diodes. Unlike silicon, it shows no reverse recovery tail, enabling efficient hard commutation in totem-pole PFC without snubbers. Its forward voltage is ~4.0 V at 13.3 A, consistent across temperature.
Is IMW65R072M1HXKSA1 suitable for avalanche-rated operation?
Yes-Infineon specifies 114 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) at IAR = 4.3 A and VDD = 50 V, validated per JEDEC JESD24-11. This enables reliable operation during transient overvoltage events such as inductive load switching or grid surges, provided layout minimizes stray inductance and thermal limits are observed.
