Product details
Overview
IPP020N08N5AKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-220-3 package, rated for 80 V VDS, 2.0 mΩ RDS(on) max at VGS = 10 V, and 120 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It features low gate charge (QG = 178 nC), 100% avalanche tested operation, and is optimized for high-frequency synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the IPP020N08N5AKSA1 datasheet, IPP020N08N5AKSA1 pinout, IPP020N08N5AKSA1 application, or IPP020N08N5AKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) vs. temperature stability, Qg/Qoss trade-offs for ZVS/ZCS topologies, thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.3 K/W), and integrated body diode recovery performance (trr = 105–210 ns).
Technical Context
This OptiMOS™ 5 device uses trench-gate superjunction architecture to achieve ultra-low RDS(on) × QG figure-of-merit (FOM) for high-efficiency switching. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2.2–3.8 V) supports standard 10 V gate drive while maintaining robust noise immunity.
The integrated body diode exhibits fast reverse recovery (Qrr = 308–616 nC, trr = 105–210 ns) and low forward voltage (VSD = 0.92–1.2 V at IF = 100 A), enabling reliable synchronous rectification without external Schottky diodes in buck and LLC converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 80 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 48 V input bus applications with 20 % margin |
| RDS(on), max | 2.0 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 100 A, critical for high-current POL stages |
| ID, cont. | 120 A @ TC = 25 °C - Supports >1 kW output in thermally managed TO-220 designs |
| QG | 178 nC - Low gate drive energy reduces controller IC loading and EMI in >500 kHz switching |
| RthJC | 0.3 K/W - Allows 375 W power dissipation with ≤112.5 K junction-to-case rise at full load |
| trr | 105–210 ns - Limits reverse recovery losses during hard-switched transitions in half-bridge topologies |
| EAS | 1228 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy in motor drive fault conditions |
Pinout & Package

| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control terminal requiring <178 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±20 V rating) |
| Pin 2 / Tab | Drain | Main high-side power path; tab must be isolated from heatsink unless system ground-referenced |
| Pin 3 | Source | Reference node for gate drive; connects to power ground or low-side switch source in half-bridge |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) × QG FOM | 356 mΩ·nC - Enables >98 % efficiency in 48 V → 12 V buck converters at 1 MHz |
| 100 % avalanche rated | 1228 mJ single-pulse energy - Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 105–210 ns, Qrr = 308–616 nC - Reduces shoot-through risk and diode conduction loss in sync-FET operation |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Qualified per J-STD-020 (MSL1) and JESD22 - Ensures robust reflow soldering and long-term field stability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 80 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB020N08N5 | Same die, D2PAK-3L package; RthJC = 0.45 K/W; higher QG (192 nC) | Better suited for surface-mount PCBs with limited heatsinking area | Select when automated assembly and thermal interface via PCB copper is preferred over bolted heatsinks |
| STL220N8F7 | 80 V, 2.2 mΩ, QG = 165 nC; lower trr (75 ns); no avalanche rating | Lacks 100 % avalanche testing; requires external clamping in inductive circuits | Choose only in non-inductive, tightly controlled ZVS designs where cost sensitivity outweighs ruggedness needs |
Compared with IPB020N08N5, IPP020N08N5AKSA1 offers superior thermal resistance and lower gate charge for discrete heatsinked systems; versus STL220N8F7, it trades slightly higher QG for guaranteed avalanche capability and proven field reliability in harsh industrial environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for IPP020N08N5AKSA1?
The junction temperature must not exceed 175 °C under any condition. At TC = 100 °C, the device supports 120 A continuous current with appropriate heatsinking. Derating curves in the datasheet show linear reduction to ~60 A at TC = 150 °C, based on RthJC = 0.3 K/W and thermal design margin.
Can IPP020N08N5AKSA1 be used as a synchronous rectifier in a 48 V to 12 V LLC converter?
Yes-it is explicitly qualified for synchronous rectification with its fast body diode (trr = 105–210 ns, Qrr = 308–616 nC) and low RDS(on). In LLC operation, its low Qoss (207 nC) and plateau voltage (4.5 V) enable clean zero-voltage turn-on, reducing switching loss and EMI.
Is IPP020N08N5AKSA1 RoHS and halogen-free compliant?
Yes-this device uses Pb-free plating and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. It is also halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21, with chlorine and bromine content below 900 ppm each and total halogens <1500 ppm, verified by material declaration and analytical testing.
Does IPP020N08N5AKSA1 require a negative gate voltage for safe turn-off?
No-its gate threshold voltage range (2.2–3.8 V) and ±20 V VGS rating allow safe turn-off with 0 V gate drive. However, applying –5 V improves noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments; the device does not require negative bias for reliable operation under normal conditions.
