Product details
Overview
IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an 80 V, 2.8 mΩ RDS(on) N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-HSOF-8 package, rated for 120 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C and optimized for high-frequency synchronous rectification and DC-DC conversion in server VRMs and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 datasheet, IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 pinout, IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 application, or IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 2.8 mΩ on-resistance at VGS = 10 V, 120 A ID rating, 100% UIS-tested ruggedness, low gate charge (Qg = 78 nC), and thermally enhanced HSOF-8 package with exposed drain pad.
Technical Context
This device uses Infineon's OptiMOS™ 3 technology with trench-gate superjunction structure to achieve low conduction loss and fast switching performance. It features a fully characterized avalanche energy rating (EAS = 490 mJ) and supports hard-switched operation up to 1 MHz in buck converters.
The MOSFET integrates a monolithic temperature sensor and exhibits tightly controlled threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2.0–3.0 V) and low gate-to-source leakage (<100 nA). Its thermal resistance RthJC = 0.5 K/W enables high-power density designs without forced airflow.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, high-frequency power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB028N08N5 | RDS(on) = 2.8 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, but in TO-263-7 package with higher RthJC = 0.75 K/W and no Kelvin source. | Larger footprint and higher thermal resistance limit usable current density in compact VRMs. | Preferred where board space permits and discrete heatsinking is available. |
| STL220N8F7 | RDS(on) = 2.2 mΩ but rated only to 80 V with lower UIS rating (EAS = 280 mJ) and no 100% avalanche test. | Higher conduction efficiency but reduced ruggedness in hard-switched telecom converters with high dI/dt. | Consider when conduction loss dominates and transient stress is well-controlled via layout. |

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate drive voltage for IPI028N08N3GHKSA1?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V, but the device is characterized and optimized for 10 V drive. Operation at 12 V is permissible and improves RDS(on) margin, while 15 V exceeds recommended limits and risks accelerated gate oxide degradation over time. Gate drive must remain within –5 V to +12 V for reliable long-term operation.
Does IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 require a negative gate turn-off voltage?
No, this MOSFET does not require negative gate turn-off. Its VGS(th) range (2.0–3.0 V) and low Miller plateau ensure clean turn-off with 0 V gate drive. However, applying –2 V to –5 V during off-state improves noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments such as multi-phase VRMs with adjacent fast-switching nodes.
How is the exposed drain pad on the HSOF-8 package electrically connected?
The exposed drain pad is internally bonded to all drain terminals (pins 1–3 and 5–7) and serves as the primary current-carrying and thermal path. It must be soldered to a large PCB copper pour or heatsink using solder paste and reflow profile compatible with lead-free assembly. No electrical isolation is required-the pad is at drain potential and carries full load current.
Can IPI028N08N3GHKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, it supports paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) above 100 °C and tight VGS(th) distribution. For stable current sharing, use matched gate resistors (±5%), identical PCB trace lengths, and Kelvin source connections. Derate total current by 15% per additional device beyond two to account for thermal coupling effects in dense layouts.
