Product details
Overview
IPP08CNE8NG from Infineon Technologies is a 80 V, 80 A, 5.4 mΩ N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3 package, optimized for high-frequency synchronous rectification and DC-DC conversion in server VRMs and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IPP08CNE8NG datasheet, IPP08CNE8NG pinout, IPP08CNE8NG application, or IPP08CNE8NG equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 10 V gate drive, Qg of 75 nC, tr/tf under 20 ns, and avalanche-rated operation up to 100 mJ single-pulse energy.
Technical Context
This device uses Infineon's OptiMOS™ 5 technology with trench-gate superjunction architecture, delivering low conduction loss (RDS(on) = 5.4 mΩ @ Tj = 25°C) and fast switching (Qgd/Qg = 0.37). It supports 100% unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 100 mJ at Tj = 25°C.
Thermal design leverages a copper clip-bonded TO-220 package with 0.5 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance and minimal footprint cooling area. Gate threshold voltage is tightly distributed (VGS(th) = 2.0–3.0 V), enabling robust TTL/CMOS-level drive compatibility.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 80 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 48 V input bus applications |
| ID (cont) | 80 A - Continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, derates to 52 A at 100°C case temperature |
| RDS(on) | 5.4 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 50 A in 12 V output stages |
| Qg | 75 nC @ VGS = 10 V - Supports efficient 500 kHz–1 MHz switching with moderate gate driver strength |
| EAS | 100 mJ - Rated single-pulse avalanche energy ensures reliability during transient overloads |
| tr/tf | 12 ns / 14 ns - Fast switching minimizes overlap loss in hard-switched synchronous buck converters |
| Thermal RthJC | 0.5 K/W - Enables >100 W power dissipation with standard heatsink mounting |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO220-3 package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard through-hole mounting, and 2.54 mm lead pitch. Thermal pad on backside requires mechanical clamping and thermal interface material for optimal heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Power return path for load current | Low-inductance source connection; ties directly to PCB ground plane for EMI control |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <100 Ω series gate resistor to damp ringing |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Main power output node (tab-connected) | Internally bonded to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to system ground |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| OptiMOS™ 5 trench-gate process | Reduces RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit by 35% vs. prior generation for same voltage class |
| 100% UIS rated | Guarantees safe operation under worst-case inductive turn-off without external snubbers |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | Meets IPC-J-STD-609A Class 1 halogen-free requirements for industrial and telecom use |
| Enhanced body diode recovery | Qrr = 120 nC with soft reverse recovery reduces EMI and cross-conduction risk in synchronous rectifiers |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-frequency power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB08CNE8NG | RDS(on) = 5.4 mΩ, Qg = 75 nC, TO-220FP package (shorter leads) | Lower profile; better suited for space-constrained board layouts with limited vertical clearance | Select when mechanical height is constrained and thermal interface to heatsink is via clip rather than screw |
| IPI08CNE8NG | RDS(on) = 5.4 mΩ, Qg = 75 nC, TO-263-3 (D²PAK) surface-mount package | Enables automated assembly and improved thermal coupling to inner-layer copper planes | Select for high-volume production where reflow soldering and PCB thermal management outweigh through-hole reliability needs |
Compared with IPB08CNE8NG and IPI08CNE8NG, IPP08CNE8NG offers identical electrical specs but superior thermal performance in forced-air-cooled systems due to its larger TO-220 copper tab and lower RthJC (0.5 K/W vs. 0.7 K/W for D²PAK), making it preferred for >80 W continuous power dissipation.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate voltage for IPP08CNE8NG?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V per datasheet. For reliable long-term operation, gate drive should be limited to +10 V to +15 V for turn-on and –5 V to 0 V for turn-off. Exceeding +15 V increases gate oxide stress without meaningful RDS(on) improvement, while negative turn-off bias improves noise immunity in high-dI/dt environments.
Does IPP08CNE8NG require a gate resistor, and what value is typical?
Yes - a series gate resistor is mandatory to control dV/dt and prevent parasitic oscillation. A 10 Ω resistor is typical for 600 kHz operation with 2 A peak gate drivers; values between 5 Ω and 22 Ω are used depending on layout inductance and required switching speed. Lower values increase EMI risk; higher values raise switching losses.
Can IPP08CNE8NG be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) enables stable current sharing. Use matched gate resistors (±5%), symmetrical PCB routing, and common-source Kelvin connections. Derate total current by 15% versus sum of individual ratings to account for thermal coupling and parameter spread across lots.
Is the drain tab electrically isolated in the PG-TO220-3 package?
No - the metal tab is internally connected to the drain terminal. Electrical isolation from the heatsink must be achieved using insulating thermal pads or mica washers rated for ≥1000 V AC. Failure to isolate risks short-circuiting the drain to chassis ground, especially in floating-ground topologies like half-bridges.
