Product details
Overview
IPP096N03LGHKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 30 V, 96 A, logic-level N-channel TrenchMOS power MOSFET in PG-TO263-3 (D²PAK) package, featuring RDS(on) = 3.4 mΩ at VGS = 10 V and 4.8 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, qualified per AEC-Q101, and optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and automotive body control modules.
For engineers reviewing the IPP096N03LGHKSA1 datasheet, IPP096N03LGHKSA1 pinout, IPP096N03LGHKSA1 application, or IPP096N03LGHKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include low gate charge (Qg = 42 nC), fast switching (ton = 17 ns, toff = 32 ns), avalanche-rated ruggedness, and thermally enhanced D²PAK package with exposed drain pad.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Infineon's TrenchMOS technology to achieve low on-resistance and high current density in a surface-mount package. Its logic-level gate threshold (VGS(th) = 1.2–2.2 V) enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting.
The device supports repetitive avalanche energy (EAS = 125 mJ) and features 100% UIS-tested ruggedness. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.9 K/W ensures stable operation under continuous 96 A drain current at TC = 25 °C with proper PCB copper area.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V automotive and industrial bus applications. |
| ID (TC = 25 °C) | 96 A - Continuous DC current capability with adequate heatsinking on 100 cm² 2 oz Cu PCB. |
| RDS(on) max @ VGS = 4.5 V | 4.8 mΩ - Enables <100 mW conduction loss at 45 A, critical for high-efficiency 48 V–12 V buck converters. |
| Qg | 42 nC - Low total gate charge reduces driver power and enables >500 kHz switching in synchronous rectifiers. |
| EAS | 125 mJ - Rated single-pulse avalanche energy supports inductive load switching without snubbers. |
| RthJC | 0.9 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance confirms suitability for high-power density layouts with direct heatsink mounting. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO263-3 (D²PAK), surface-mount, with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection to PCB ground plane.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control input | Receives PWM signal; low 42 nC Qg minimizes driver losses and EMI during transitions. |
| Pin 2 (Drain) | High-side switch node | Internally connected to exposed metal tab; must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal and current handling. |
| Pin 3 (Source) | Reference return path | Provides low-inductance source connection; layout must minimize loop area to reduce switching overshoot. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive applications including engine control, lighting, and ADAS power stages. |
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) range 1.2–2.2 V allows direct interface with 3.3 V MCUs and FPGA I/Os without gate drivers. |
| Enhanced avalanche ruggedness | 100% UIS tested to 125 mJ ensures reliability in inductive switching circuits like solenoid drivers. |
| Thermally optimized D²PAK | Exposed drain pad and low RthJC = 0.9 K/W enable 96 A operation with minimal external heatsinking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N3LLHAG | RDS(on) = 3.0 mΩ @ 10 V but higher Qg = 58 nC; no AEC-Q101 qualification. | Targeted at industrial SMPS, not automotive; lacks avalanche rating and automotive temp range (-40 to 175 °C). | Prefer for cost-sensitive non-automotive 12 V systems where gate drive margin is ample. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS5C673NL | RDS(on) = 4.2 mΩ @ 4.5 V, Qg = 36 nC, RthJC = 1.1 K/W; AEC-Q101 qualified. | Same automotive qualification but lower current rating (70 A); smaller thermal footprint limits peak power density. | Choose when board space is constrained and 70 A suffices, accepting 12% higher conduction loss at 45 A. |
Compared with STL220N3LLHAG and NTMFS5C673NL, IPP096N03LGHKSA1 uniquely balances 96 A current, 4.8 mΩ logic-level RDS(on), AEC-Q101 compliance, and 125 mJ avalanche rating-making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability automotive power stages where both efficiency and ruggedness are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C?
The IPP096N03LGHKSA1 supports 68 A continuous drain current at case temperature of 100 °C, derated from its 96 A rating at 25 °C using the specified thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.9 K/W) and SOA curves in the official Infineon datasheet Rev. 2.1.
Is this MOSFET suitable for paralleling in high-current designs?
Yes-the device exhibits positive temperature coefficient for RDS(on) above 100 °C, enabling stable current sharing. Layout must ensure matched gate drive impedance and symmetrical thermal paths; Infineon recommends ≤ 50 ps skew between gate signals for reliable parallel operation.
Does IPP096N03LGHKSA1 require a gate resistor for EMI suppression?
A 4.7 Ω to 10 Ω gate resistor is recommended to damp ringing caused by parasitic inductance in the gate loop. This value balances switching speed (ton/toff) and voltage overshoot, especially when driving inductive loads at >200 kHz.
Can this MOSFET replace IPP055N03LG in an existing design?
No-while both are 30 V OptiMOS devices, IPP055N03LG has lower RDS(on) (2.8 mΩ) but only 55 A rating and different gate charge (32 nC). Swapping requires re-evaluation of thermal design, gate drive strength, and SOA margins due to the 75% higher current capability and 31% higher Qg.
