Product details
Overview
IPB042N03LGATMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 30 V, 100 A (continuous), 200 A (pulse) N-channel TrenchMOS power MOSFET in PG-TO263-7 package with 0.42 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, optimized for high-efficiency synchronous rectification and DC-DC conversion in server VRMs and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IPB042N03LGATMA1 datasheet, IPB042N03LGATMA1 pinout, IPB042N03LGATMA1 application, or IPB042N03LGATMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include low RDS(on), fast switching performance (ton = 25 ns, toff = 28 ns), gate charge (Qg = 99 nC), thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.45 K/W), and qualified AEC-Q101 reliability for industrial-grade operation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Infineon's OptiMOS™ 5 technology with trench-gate structure and balanced cell design to achieve ultra-low on-resistance while maintaining robust avalanche capability (EAS = 115 mJ). It supports synchronous buck topologies requiring precise gate drive timing and low conduction loss.
The device features a Kelvin source configuration (pin 7 isolated) to eliminate source inductance impact on gate control, enabling stable high-frequency switching up to 1 MHz. Its 100% UIS-tested ruggedness ensures reliable operation under transient overcurrent conditions without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| RDS(on) max @ VGS = 10 V | 0.52 mΩ - Enables ≤1.5 W conduction loss at 100 A continuous current in 12 V input VRMs |
| ID continuous @ TC = 100 °C | 100 A - Supports high-current single-phase CPU/GPU power stages without parallel devices |
| Qg total | 99 nC - Matches standard gate drivers (e.g., ISL661x, MP86933) without excessive drive power |
| ton/toff | 25 ns / 28 ns - Allows clean 500 kHz–1 MHz switching with minimal dead-time penalty |
| RthJC | 0.45 K/W - Delivers ≥120 W power dissipation capability with standard 2-layer PCB copper area |
| EAS | 115 mJ - Withstands full-load short-circuit events in digitally controlled VRMs without failure |
| VGS(th) | 1.8–2.8 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V logic-level gate drivers in modern PMICs |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO263-7 (D²PAK-7) with exposed drain pad (pins 1–6 = Drain, pin 7 = Kelvin Source, pins 8–9 = Source).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–6 (Drain tab) | Main Drain connection | Low-inductance, high-current path tied directly to PCB ground plane via large copper pour |
| 7 (Kelvin Source) | Sense-source reference | Isolated return for gate driver feedback-eliminates source inductance-induced shoot-through risk |
| 8–9 (Source) | Power source return | Carries full load current; must be routed separately from Kelvin Source to preserve sensing accuracy |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Kelvin source terminal | Enables accurate gate-to-source voltage control independent of high di/dt source loop inductance |
| OptiMOS™ 5 trench process | Delivers 20% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. prior generation for improved efficiency at 500 kHz+ |
| 100% UIS tested | Guarantees single-pulse avalanche energy handling without derating in unregulated bus applications |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, low-RDS(on) MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFB4115PBF | RDS(on) = 1.5 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220 package; no Kelvin source | Limited to ≤50 A continuous; unsuitable for >300 kHz due to higher Qg (130 nC) and lack of sense pin | Select only for cost-sensitive, low-frequency (<100 kHz), non-synchronous designs where layout simplicity outweighs efficiency loss |
| STL220N3LLH6 | RDS(on) = 0.45 mΩ @ 10 V; same D²PAK-7 package; Kelvin source included | Lower Qg (82 nC) but reduced EAS (75 mJ); not AEC-Q101 qualified | Preferred for high-frequency telecom converters where avalanche margin is less critical than gate drive loss |
Compared with IRFB4115PBF and STL220N3LLH6, IPB042N03LGATMA1 uniquely combines sub-0.5 mΩ RDS(on), Kelvin source, AEC-Q101 qualification, and 115 mJ EAS-making it the only option qualified for mission-critical 100 A server VRMs and automotive-grade OBCs.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate voltage for IPB042N03LGATMA1?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V, but Infineon specifies 10 V as the optimal drive level for achieving rated RDS(on) and minimizing gate oxide stress. Operation at 12 V is permissible for transient conditions but increases Qg-related losses and reduces long-term reliability margin.
Can IPB042N03LGATMA1 be used in paralleled configurations?
Yes-its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) and matched threshold voltage distribution enable stable current sharing. For two devices, use individual gate resistors (≤2.2 Ω) and symmetrical PCB layout with Kelvin source routing to avoid imbalance above 150 A total current.
Does the Kelvin source pin require a dedicated PCB trace?
Yes-the Kelvin source (pin 7) must be routed as a separate, low-noise, low-inductance trace directly to the gate driver's source reference node, physically isolated from the main source power return (pins 8–9) to prevent coupling of switching noise into the gate control loop.
What thermal interface material is recommended for the drain pad?
Infineon recommends a 60–80 μm thickness of thermally conductive epoxy (e.g., Henkel Loctite ABLESTIK QMI510) or solder paste (SAC305) for the drain pad attachment. Avoid thermal pads-contact resistance must be <0.15 mΩ to maintain RthJC ≤ 0.45 K/W specification.
