Product details
Overview
IPP45N06S409AKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 60 V, 45 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3-1 package, optimized for automotive and industrial switching applications with 9.2 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 100% avalanche tested, and AEC-Q101 qualified. It delivers high pulsed current capability (180 A), operates up to 175 °C junction temperature, and supports robust motor control and DC-DC converter primary-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the IPP45N06S409AKSA1 datasheet, IPP45N06S409AKSA1 pinout, IPP45N06S409AKSA1 application, or IPP45N06S409AKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) stability over temperature, single-pulse avalanche energy (97 mJ), thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.1 K/W), gate charge profile (Qg = 36–47 nC), and diode forward voltage (VSD = 0.6–1.3 V).
Technical Context
This OptiMOS®-T2 device uses trench-gate superjunction technology to achieve low conduction loss while maintaining fast switching performance. Its 7.9 mΩ typical RDS(on) at 45 A/10 V and 30 ns total switching time (td(on) + tr + td(off) + tf) enable high-efficiency operation in hard-switched topologies.
The integrated body diode exhibits low reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 40 nC) and fast trr (45 ns), reducing commutation losses in synchronous rectification and half-bridge configurations. Gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) ensures stable turn-on under noisy automotive supply conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive and 48 V industrial bus systems. |
| RDS(on), max | 9.2 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 45 A - Enables ≤2.1 W conduction loss at full rated current, critical for thermally constrained enclosures. |
| ID, continuous | 45 A at TC = 25 °C - Sustained current rating defined by bondwire limit, not silicon thermal saturation. |
| EAS | 97 mJ at ID = 22.5 A - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche ruggedness for inductive load switching without external snubbers. |
| Qg | 36–47 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed trade-off in PWM frequency range 20–100 kHz. |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.0 V - Ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V logic-level drivers and noise margin against false triggering. |
| trr | 45 ns - Limits diode reverse recovery loss during high-frequency bridge transitions, supporting >50 kHz operation. |
Pinout & Package
IPP45N06S409AKSA1 is housed in PG-TO220-3-1 package: isolated tab, vertical mounting, through-hole leaded configuration with 2.1 K/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. The drain-connected tab enables direct heatsink attachment for high-power dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Reference node for gate drive; connects to low-side return path and PCB ground plane. |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOSFET gate requiring <100 nA leakage current; sensitive to ESD and layout parasitics. |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output | Internally connected to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system design permits common-drain topology. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive powertrain and chassis applications per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, and UHAST. |
| 100% avalanche tested | Each unit subjected to single-pulse avalanche stress at rated IAS = 45 A, ensuring field reliability in inductive fault conditions. |
| Green Product (RoHS) | Lead-free termination and halogen-free molding compound compliant with EU Directive 2011/65/EU and IPC-1752. |
| 175 °C operating temperature | Junction temperature rating allows operation in engine bay or industrial motor drive enclosures without derating below full current. |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | Typical 4–8 nC / 17–22 nC = ~0.35 - Improves Miller immunity and reduces risk of shoot-through in bridge circuits. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP45NF06L | RDS(on) = 14 mΩ (max), lower VGS(th) (1–2.5 V), no AEC-Q101 certification | Not qualified for automotive use; suitable only for industrial/commercial non-safety-critical designs | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs automotive compliance and higher RDS(on) is acceptable. |
| IRFZ44NPBF | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ (max), 55 V rating, TO-220AB package, no avalanche testing | Limited to 12 V/24 V low-power loads; unsuitable for 48 V systems or repetitive inductive switching | Choose only for legacy designs where footprint compatibility is mandatory and current demand ≤20 A. |
Compared with STP45NF06L and IRFZ44NPBF, IPP45N06S409AKSA1 provides superior thermal performance (2.1 K/W vs. ≥3.0 K/W), guaranteed avalanche ruggedness, and automotive-grade reliability-making it the preferred choice for mission-critical 45 A switching where efficiency, safety, and lifetime are prioritized over lowest unit cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for IPP45N06S409AKSA1?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V. Operation beyond this rating risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended drive voltage is 10 V for full RDS(on) specification; 5 V is insufficient for guaranteed turn-on due to VGS(th) upper limit of 4.0 V. Gate resistors must be selected to limit dV/dt-induced ringing within safe SOA limits.
Does IPP45N06S409AKSA1 require a heatsink in continuous 45 A operation?
Yes. At 45 A and 10 V VGS, conduction loss is ~16 W (I² × RDS(on)). With RthJC = 2.1 K/W and typical RthCA > 40 K/W for TO-220 in still air, junction temperature exceeds 175 °C without a heatsink. A minimum 25 cm² aluminum heatsink with thermal interface material is required to maintain Tj ≤ 150 °C at 25 °C ambient.
Can IPP45N06S409AKSA1 replace IPP45N06S409 in existing designs?
Yes-IPP45N06S409AKSA1 is the updated tape-and-reel variant of IPP45N06S409, sharing identical electrical specifications, thermal characteristics, and mechanical dimensions. The "KSA1" suffix denotes packaging format (tape-and-reel, RoHS-compliant, MSL1) and does not affect performance or pin compatibility.
Is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification in a buck converter?
It can be used but is suboptimal. While VSD = 0.6–1.3 V and trr = 45 ns meet basic requirements, its Qrr = 40 nC is higher than dedicated synchronous rectifier MOSFETs. For >90% efficiency at high load, a discrete Schottky or optimized low-Qrr MOSFET is recommended on the low-side leg.
