Product details

Overview

IPA60R160C6XKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 0.16 Ω R_DS(on), TO-220 FullPAK packaged CoolMOS™ C6 superjunction power MOSFET optimized for high-efficiency hard-switching and resonant PFC and PWM stages in server PSUs and telecom rectifiers. It delivers 75 nC total gate charge, 6 µJ E_oss at 400 V, and 500 A/µs body diode di/dt capability.

For engineers reviewing the IPA60R160C6XKSA1 datasheet, IPA60R160C6XKSA1 pinout, IPA60R160C6XKSA1 application, or IPA60R160C6XKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low R_DS(on)×Q_g figure-of-merit, high commutation ruggedness, JEDEC-qualified lead-free packaging, and thermal resistance of 3.67 °C/W (junction-to-case) in the FullPAK configuration.

Technical Context

This CoolMOS™ C6 device implements a superjunction (SJ) structure enabling simultaneous reduction of conduction and switching losses. Its 600 V blocking voltage, 23.8 A continuous drain current at T_C = 25 °C, and 70 A pulsed rating support high-power density designs in offline SMPS topologies.

The MOSFET features a gate threshold voltage of 2.5–3.5 V, 5.4 V gate plateau voltage, and 9 nC gate-to-source charge - all contributing to robust gate drive compatibility and predictable turn-on behavior under varying load and temperature conditions.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_DS max	600 V - supports universal AC input (85–265 VAC) with margin in PFC and primary-side switch applications
R_DS(on) max @ 10 V, 25 °C	0.16 Ω - enables low conduction loss in 20–30 A continuous current range at moderate heatsink temperatures
Q_g typ	75 nC - determines gate driver power requirement and influences switching speed trade-offs in 65–100 kHz designs
E_oss @ 400 V	6 µJ - reduces turn-off energy loss and improves efficiency in ZVS/ZCS resonant converters
Body diode di/dt	500 A/µs - ensures reliable commutation during hard-switched synchronous rectification and LLC transitions
R_thJC	3.67 °C/W - defines maximum power dissipation limit (34 W at T_C = 25 °C) for thermal design in TO-220 FullPAK mounting
I_D,pulse	70 A - supports peak current handling during startup, overload, and transient events without second breakdown

Pinout & Package

IPA60R160C6XKSA1 uses the TO-220 FullPAK package - a surface-mount compatible variant of TO-220 with integrated isolation and enhanced thermal performance via exposed drain pad on the underside. The package provides creepage/clearance compliance for reinforced insulation in industrial and telecom power supplies.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Pin 1 (Gate)	Control terminal	Receives 10 V gate drive signal; requires <6.4 Ω gate resistance for stable switching and EMI control
Pin 2 (Drain)	High-voltage output node	Connected to primary winding or DC bus; electrically tied to exposed metal pad for thermal conduction
Pin 3 (Source)	Reference node / return path	Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; carries full load current and body diode reverse recovery current

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Superjunction architecture	Enables 0.16 Ω R_DS(on) at 600 V while maintaining fast switching and low Q_g
Low R_DS(on) × Q_g FOM	12 nC·Ω - directly improves system efficiency in both conduction and switching domains
High commutation ruggedness	500 A/µs di/dt rating - prevents parasitic turn-on and ensures reliable operation in high-dV/dt half-bridge configurations
JEDEC-qualified, halogen-free	Pb-free plating per J-STD-020 and JESD22 - ensures RoHS compliance and long-term solder joint reliability
Optimized body diode	460 ns t_rr, 8.2 µC Q_rr - reduces reverse recovery loss and EMI in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) PFC

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage superjunction MOSFET applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IPW60R160C6	TO-247 package, R_thJC = 0.71 °C/W, same R_DS(on)/Q_g	Higher power handling (176 W vs. 34 W), suited for heatsink-mounted high-current designs	Select when thermal budget exceeds TO-220 FullPAK limits and board space allows larger through-hole footprint
IPP60R160C6	TO-220 (non-FullPAK), R_thJC = 0.71 °C/W, identical electrical specs	Lower thermal resistance but no isolation; requires external insulator and mechanical mounting care	Choose for cost-sensitive designs where PCB-level isolation and creepage are managed externally

Compared with IPW60R160C6 and IPP60R160C6, IPA60R160C6XKSA1 trades higher junction-to-case thermal resistance for integrated isolation, surface-mount compatibility, and simplified assembly - making it optimal for compact, safety-critical, and automated production environments.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous drain current for IPA60R160C6XKSA1 at 100 °C case temperature?

The maximum continuous drain current is 15 A at T_C = 100 °C, as specified in Table 2 of the Rev. 2.3 datasheet. This rating reflects thermal derating due to reduced heat dissipation capability at elevated case temperatures and must be validated against actual board layout and heatsink performance.

Does IPA60R160C6XKSA1 require a gate resistor, and what value is recommended?

Yes - a gate resistor is required to control dv/dt, suppress oscillation, and limit peak gate current. Infineon recommends 1.7 Ω for evaluation (per Table 20), but typical production values range from 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω depending on switching speed, EMI targets, and driver capability. Lower values increase switching speed but risk ringing and EMI.

Can IPA60R160C6XKSA1 be paralleled with other CoolMOS™ devices?

Yes, but only with identical part numbers and batch codes. Infineon advises using ferrite beads on each gate line or individual totem-pole drivers to ensure balanced dynamic current sharing and prevent oscillatory instability during turn-on/turn-off transitions.

What is the avalanche energy rating for IPA60R160C6XKSA1, and under what conditions is it valid?

The single-pulse avalanche energy rating is 497 mJ, measured at I_D = 4.1 A and V_DD = 50 V (Table 2). This rating applies only to unclamped inductive switching events and does not guarantee repetitive avalanche capability - designers must avoid sustained avalanche operation in production systems.
