Product details
Overview
IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 from Infineon Technologies is an AEC-Q101 qualified N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in PG-TO263-7-3 package, rated for 40 V VDS, 0.87 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 100 A, with 240 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It delivers ultra-low conduction loss and 100% single-pulse avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 750 mJ), targeting high-current automotive power stages.
For engineers reviewing the IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 datasheet, IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 pinout, IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 application, or IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) stability over temperature, gate charge profile for PWM efficiency, avalanche energy rating, thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.5 K/W), and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood use.
Technical Context
This OptiMOS™-T2 device uses trench-based silicon technology optimized for low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit in 40 V automotive applications. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) ensures robust noise immunity while enabling fast switching with low gate drive requirements.
Thermal design is enabled by a dedicated drain-connected copper pad in the PG-TO263-7-3 package, supporting direct PCB heatsinking. The 175 °C maximum junction temperature and MSL1 reflow rating allow integration into high-reliability engine control units and battery disconnect modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive systems with transient margin. |
| RDS(on) | 0.87 mΩ @ VGS=10 V, ID=100 A - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 200 A, critical for high-efficiency motor drives. |
| ID (cont) | 240 A @ TC=25 °C - Supports high-current load switching without paralleling devices in starter relays or DC-DC converters. |
| EAS | 750 mJ @ ID=120 A - Guarantees reliable operation during inductive load turn-off in solenoid drivers and H-bridge freewheeling. |
| RthJC | 0.5 K/W - Allows direct thermal path to heatsink, enabling >250 W power dissipation with minimal ΔTjc. |
| Qg | 220–290 nC - Defines gate drive power requirement; enables efficient 20–100 kHz PWM in on-board chargers. |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.0 V - Ensures clean turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level gate drivers in microcontroller-based systems. |
Pinout & Package
IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 is housed in PG-TO263-7-3 (D²PAK-7) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. Pin 1–3 are source terminals, Pin 4 is gate, Pin 5–7 are parallel source connections, and the large tab is drain (non-isolated).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 | Source (S) | Multiple low-inductance source paths reduce common-source inductance in high-di/dt switching. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 117 nC typical Qgs; requires <3.5 Ω external gate resistor for controlled dv/dt. |
| Drain Tab | Drain (D) | Exposed copper drain pad provides primary thermal path and carries full 240 A current; must be soldered to ≥6 cm² PCB copper area. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive under-hood environments including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per JESD47. |
| 100% avalanche tested | Each unit passes single-pulse EAS stress test at 750 mJ, ensuring field reliability in inductive load switching. |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.87 mΩ enables <0.5 W conduction loss at 150 A, reducing heatsink size and system cost in 48 V mild-hybrid inverters. |
| MSL1 up to 260 °C | Compatible with lead-free reflow profiles without popcorn or delamination risk in automated SMT assembly. |
| 175 °C operating temperature | Supports placement near hot components (e.g., ignition coils, exhaust sensors) without derating in engine control modules. |
Applications
| Automotive Starter Relay | 48 V Mild-Hybrid Inverter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-current contactor replacement in 12 V starter circuits handling cranking surges up to 960 A peak. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power switch controlling battery-to-starter motor path; operates in static on/off mode with minimal switching. Use Value: Eliminates mechanical relay wear and arcing; 0.87 mΩ RDS(on) limits voltage drop to <1 V at 240 A, preserving cranking torque. | Use Scenario: Phase-leg high-side switch in bidirectional DC-DC converter linking 12 V and 48 V rails in mild-hybrid vehicles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier and active clamp switch operating at 25–50 kHz PWM with fast body diode recovery (trr = 85 ns). Use Value: Low Qrr (130 nC) and soft reverse recovery minimize switching losses and EMI during hard commutation. |
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) Load Driver | Battery Disconnect Switch (BDS) |
Use Scenario: Driving high-power solenoids, fuel injectors, and glow plugs in diesel ECUs with tight thermal constraints. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Protected high-side driver with integrated overtemperature and short-circuit detection via external monitoring.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fail-safe power switch activated by safety controller; must sustain 240 A continuously and interrupt fault currents >1 kA. Use Value: AEC-Q101 qualification and 100% avalanche screening provide functional safety confidence for battery isolation integrity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4LF8AG | RDS(on) = 0.95 mΩ, Qg = 260 nC, same PG-TO263-7-3 package | Slightly higher conduction loss; lower gate charge variation across temperature | Prefer when tighter VGS(th) tolerance (1.8–2.8 V) is needed for low-voltage MCU gate drive. |
| IRFS7537TRLPBF | RDS(on) = 1.15 mΩ, Qg = 200 nC, TO-263-3 package (3-pin) | Higher RDS(on) and no multi-source pins; lacks AEC-Q101 certification | Acceptable only for non-automotive industrial DC-DC where qualification is not required and layout allows larger footprint. |
Compared with STL220N4LF8AG and IRFS7537TRLPBF, IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 offers the lowest RDS(on) and full AEC-Q101 compliance, making it the preferred choice for thermally constrained, safety-critical automotive power stages requiring proven avalanche ruggedness.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for thermal performance?
The datasheet specifies optimal thermal performance with a 6 cm² (40 mm × 40 mm) single-layer 70 µm copper area connected to the drain tab on FR4 PCB. Using less than this area increases RthJA to 62 K/W; doubling the area reduces it to ~40 K/W. Thermal vias under the tab further improve heat transfer to internal layers.
Does IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 include integrated gate protection?
No, this MOSFET does not integrate gate protection circuitry such as Zener clamps or series resistors. External gate protection-like a 12 V Zener diode between gate and source and a 10 Ω series resistor-is required to limit VGS to ±20 V and suppress ESD or ringing-induced overstress during high-di/dt switching.
Can it replace older OptiMOS™-T1 devices in existing designs?
Yes, IPB240N04S4R9ATMA1 is a direct drop-in replacement for IPB240N04S4-01 (OptiMOS™-T1) with identical pinout, package, and voltage ratings. It improves RDS(on) by 12% (from 0.99 mΩ to 0.87 mΩ) and adds full AEC-Q101 qualification, enabling enhanced efficiency and automotive compliance without layout changes.
What is the significance of the "R9" suffix in the marking?
The "R9" denotes the specific die revision and process node within the OptiMOS™-T2 family. It identifies the 0.87 mΩ RDS(on) variant manufactured using Infineon's optimized 40 V trench-MOS process, distinguishing it from earlier "R8" (0.95 mΩ) or later "R10" (0.80 mΩ) revisions with different on-resistance and gate charge trade-offs.
