Product details
Overview
IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 500 V, 3.0 Ω RDS(on) CoolMOS™ CE superjunction power MOSFET in PG-SOT223 package, rated for 2.6 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C and optimized for high-efficiency, cost-sensitive offline SMPS in adapters and LED lighting. It delivers 4.3 nC total gate charge, 0.49 µJ output switching energy at 400 V, and supports fast commutation with 500 A/µs diode dI/dt capability.
For engineers reviewing the IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 datasheet, IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 pinout, IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 application, or IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low FOM (RDS(on) × Qg), high dv/dt ruggedness (50 V/ns), 150°C max junction temperature, and SOT223 thermal performance (RthJS = 25.4 °C/W).
Technical Context
This CoolMOS™ CE device implements a superjunction structure enabling high-voltage blocking (500 V V(BR)DSS) with significantly reduced conduction and switching losses versus planar MOSFETs. Its gate threshold voltage (2.5–3.5 V) and plateau voltage (5.3 V) support standard 12 V gate drive while maintaining noise immunity.
It integrates an intrinsic body diode with 99 ns reverse recovery time and 0.3 µC Qrr, enabling hard-switched flyback and buck-derived topologies. The device is characterized for operation up to 150°C with derated current and exhibits 18 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy at 50 V.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP5NK50ZFP | 500 V, 4.4 Ω RDS(on), 12 nC Qg, TO-220FP package | Higher conduction loss and larger footprint; requires heatsink above 2 W | Select when legacy TO-220 layout reuse is required and efficiency >85% suffices |
| FDPF5N50NZ | 500 V, 3.6 Ω RDS(on), 7.2 nC Qg, TO-220F package | Higher Qg increases gate drive loss; lacks specified dI/dt rating | Prefer only if existing TO-220F thermal design exists and cost is primary constraint |
Compared with STP5NK50ZFP and FDPF5N50NZ, IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 offers superior RDS(on) × Qg FOM, SOT223 thermal integration, and verified 500 A/µs diode commutation-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency adapter and lighting designs where gate drive simplicity and thermal headroom are critical.

FAQ
Is IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 suitable for paralleling in higher-power designs?
Yes, but with strict layout controls: gate resistors must be individually placed close to each MOSFET gate, and ferrite beads are recommended on each gate line to suppress oscillation. The datasheet explicitly advises this for paralleling due to inherent parameter spread and gate loop inductance sensitivity.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for stable switching?
The datasheet specifies RG = 5.3 Ω for dynamic characterization. For stable EMI-controlled operation, 10–22 Ω is typical; values above 47 Ω may cause excessive switching time and increased conduction loss. Thermal testing at full load is required if using >33 Ω.
Does this MOSFET require a negative gate turn-off voltage?
No. The device has a gate threshold voltage of 2.5–3.5 V and is fully compatible with 0 V to 12 V gate drive. Negative turn-off is unnecessary and not supported by the absolute maximum rating (VGS = ±30 V), which permits only static or AC-coupled negative bias under specific transient conditions.
Can IPN50R3K0CEATMA1 replace older CoolMOS™ C3 or C6 parts in existing designs?
Direct replacement is not guaranteed: CE series features lower Qg and different gate charge distribution than C3/C6, potentially altering switching timing and EMI behavior. Layout review and re-validation of gate drive strength, snubber values, and thermal margin are required before substitution.
