Product details
Overview
IPD04N03LA G from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel logic-level power MOSFET in PG-TO252-3-11 package, rated for 25 V VDS, 50 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 3.8 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features 175 °C maximum junction temperature, 600 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and optimized gate charge × RDS(on) figure-of-merit for high-efficiency synchronous buck converters in server VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the IPD04N03LA G datasheet, IPD04N03LA G pinout, IPD04N03LA G application, or IPD04N03LA G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5 V logic-level gate drive compatibility, low thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.3 K/W), integrated body diode with 15 nC Qrr, and JEDEC-qualified reliability for industrial power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-based OptiMOS®2 process to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining robust switching performance: td(on) = 14–21 ns, td(off) = 44–66 ns, and Qg = 31–41 nC. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.2–2.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V/5 V logic drivers.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode (Qrr = 15 nC, VSD = 0.89–1.2 V at IF = 50 A) and supports high dv/dt immunity (6 kV/µs) under hard-switching conditions. Thermal design is enabled by its 1.3 K/W junction-to-case resistance and qualification for 175 °C continuous operation.
Key Specifications

|---|---|
| VDS | 25 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V input bus systems and 5 V logic-level gate drive |
| RDS(on) max | 3.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 50 A, critical for high-current VRM phases |
| ID continuous | 50 A at TC = 25 °C - Supported by bondwire-limited current rating and low RthJC |
| EAS | 600 mJ - Robust single-pulse avalanche capability for inductive load switching and fault tolerance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB04N03LG | Same OptiMOS®2 die, but in PG-TO263-3 (D2PAK) package; RthJC = 0.9 K/W, higher ID,pulse = 400 A | Better thermal performance in high-power, low-airflow environments; larger footprint required | Select when board space permits and junction temperature must stay below 150 °C at >60 A average current |
| STL130N3LLH6 | 130 A rated, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V, but requires 4.5 V min VGS; no JEDEC qualification for automotive | Higher current capacity but less suitable for 3.3 V logic drive and mission-critical automotive use | Prefer for cost-sensitive industrial SMPS where gate drive is ≥4.5 V and qualification is not mandated |
Compared with IPB04N03LG, IPD04N03LA G offers smaller footprint and identical electrical specs but trades 0.4 K/W higher RthJC; versus STL130N3LLH6, it delivers guaranteed 3.3 V drive compatibility and automotive-grade reliability at lower peak current capability.

FAQ
Is IPD04N03LA G suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With a gate threshold voltage range of 1.2–2.0 V and guaranteed turn-on at VGS = 4.5 V, IPD04N03LA G fully enhances under 3.3 V logic drive in typical PCB layouts. Its low Qg (31–41 nC) minimizes Miller plateau duration, ensuring clean switching even with limited drive strength.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for thermal performance?
For optimal thermal performance, Infineon specifies a 6 cm² copper area (single-layer, 70 µm thick) on FR4 PCB, vertically mounted in still air. This achieves RthJA = 50 K/W. Reducing copper area below 4 cm² increases junction temperature significantly-e.g., 2 cm² raises RthJA to ~75 K/W.
Does IPD04N03LA G have avalanche rating for inductive load switching?
Yes. It is rated for 600 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) at ID = 45 A with RGS = 25 Ω. This rating applies to unclamped inductive switching events and is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A110, making it suitable for relay drivers and solenoid controls without external snubbers.
How does the body diode performance compare to discrete Schottky diodes?
The integrated body diode has VSD = 0.89–1.2 V at 50 A and Qrr = 15 nC, offering lower forward drop than 100 V Schottkys but higher than ultra-low-VF silicon carbide diodes. Its soft recovery reduces ringing and EMI, enabling simpler layout than discrete alternatives in synchronous buck topologies.
