Product details
Overview
IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 200 V, 34 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3 package, featuring 32 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 175 °C junction rating, and optimized FOM (gate charge × RDS(on)) for high-frequency synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 datasheet, IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 pinout, IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 application, or IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.1 K/W RthJC, 136 A pulsed drain current, 190 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and 110 ns reverse recovery time in the integrated body diode - all critical for hard-switched SMPS and motor drive half-bridges.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-based OptiMOSTM3 silicon technology to achieve low conduction loss and fast switching dynamics. Its gate threshold voltage (2–4 V) enables robust TTL/CMOS-level drive compatibility, while the 22–29 nC total gate charge supports efficient operation at 100–500 kHz switching frequencies.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode with 500 nC Qrr and 110 ns trr, enabling reliable synchronous rectification without external Schottky diodes. Thermal design is supported by a validated 1.1 K/W junction-to-case resistance under standard mounting conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 200 V - supports 170 V DC bus designs with 15% margin for voltage transients in industrial power supplies. |
| RDS(on), max | 32 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - delivers ≤1.1 W conduction loss at 34 A continuous drain current. |
| ID, cont | 34 A @ TC = 25 °C - rated for high-current output stages in 300–500 W isolated DC-DC modules. |
| EAS | 190 mJ - withstands repetitive inductive switching stress in motor gate drivers and flyback snubbers. |
| tr/tf | 9 ns / 4 ns - enables clean edge transitions with minimal switching loss at ≥300 kHz operation. |
| Qg | 22–29 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.5 A peak for 20 ns turn-on with 15 Ω gate resistor). |
| VSD | 0.9–1.2 V @ IF = 34 A - defines forward drop and self-heating in freewheeling paths during PWM dead-time. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO220-3 (standard through-hole, isolated tab, lead-free RoHS-compliant plating). Pin assignment verified per Infineon outline drawing Rev. 2.3 (2011-05-20).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path, thermally coupled to heatsink | Electrically and thermally connected to metal tab - must be insulated from chassis unless system ground reference permits. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-inductance return path; used for source-shunt sensing or bootstrap capacitor reference in high-side configurations. |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <2.5 Ω series resistance to damp ringing; sensitive to ESD (±20 V absolute max). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| N-channel normal-level logic | Operates fully enhanced with 10 V gate drive - compatible with standard 12 V gate drivers and eliminates need for level shifters. |
| Optimized FOM (Qg × RDS(on)) | ~0.9 nC·Ω - balances switching and conduction losses for highest efficiency in 100–300 kHz DC-DC topologies. |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Enables derated operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments (e.g., industrial PLC power stages). |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Validated per J-STD-20 and JESD22 for automotive and industrial applications - ensures long-term parametric stability under thermal cycling. |
| Halogen-free & RoHS compliant | Meets IEC61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU - required for export to EU, Japan, and Korea markets. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP34NF20 | RDS(on) = 40 mΩ (max), Qg = 32 nC, TO-220 package | Higher conduction and switching loss; lower avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 120 mJ) | Acceptable where cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets and thermal margin is ample. |
| IRF640NPBF | VDS = 200 V, RDS(on) = 180 mΩ, Qg = 44 nC, legacy planar process | Significantly higher RDS(on) and slower switching - unsuitable for >100 kHz or high-current sync rectification | Only viable for low-frequency linear or quasi-resonant applications with relaxed thermal constraints. |
Compared with STP34NF20 and IRF640NPBF, IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 delivers superior FOM, tighter RDS(on) tolerance, and higher avalanche energy - making it the preferred choice for space-constrained, high-efficiency 200 V power stages where thermal headroom and reliability are critical.

FAQ
Is IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 pin-compatible with IPB320N20N3G or IPP320N20N3G?
Yes - all three share identical PG-TO220-3 pinout (Drain-Tab, Source, Gate), same marking "320N20N", and identical electrical specifications. The only difference is packaging variant: IPB = TO263-3 (D²PAK), IPP = TO262-3 (I²PAK), IPI = TO220-3. Mechanical mounting and PCB footprint differ.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 300 kHz operation?
A 10–15 Ω non-inductive gate resistor is recommended to balance switching speed and ringing suppression. With 22–29 nC Qg, this yields ~20–30 ns turn-on delay and dV/dt < 5 V/ns - sufficient for EMI compliance in Class B conducted emissions testing.
Does the body diode support continuous reverse recovery at 20 kHz?
Yes - the 110 ns trr and 500 nC Qrr are characterized at 100 A/µs diF/dt and 100 V reverse bias. At 20 kHz, thermal rise from diode recovery remains within limits when operated below 34 A average forward current and with adequate heatsinking.
Can IPI320N20N3GAKSA1 be used in avalanche mode for ZVS soft-switching?
Yes - its 190 mJ single-pulse EAS rating and JEDEC qualification for target applications confirm controlled, repeatable avalanche capability. However, repetitive avalanche requires strict pulse-width and duty-cycle limits per Figure 3 in the datasheet to avoid cumulative thermal stress.
