Product details
Overview
IPP50R520CPHKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 500 V, 14 A (TC = 100 °C) N-channel CoolMOS™ C7 superjunction power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, optimized for hard-switching and resonant topologies in SMPS, PFC, and industrial AC-DC converters. It features RDS(on) = 520 mΩ (max), Qg = 28 nC, and tfall = 12 ns at VDD = 400 V, ID = 7 A.
For engineers reviewing the IPP50R520CPHKSA1 datasheet, IPP50R520CPHKSA1 pinout, IPP50R520CPHKSA1 application, or IPP50R520CPHKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 520 mΩ RDS(on), 28 nC gate charge, 14 A continuous drain current capability, and TO-220FP package with isolated flange for enhanced thermal management in high-density power supplies.
Technical Context
This device implements Infineon's 7th-generation CoolMOS™ trench-gate superjunction architecture, delivering reduced switching losses via low Qg (28 nC) and Qoss (39 nC), while maintaining robust avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 420 mJ). Its VGS(th) = 3.5 V ensures reliable gate drive compatibility with standard 12 V controllers.
The MOSFET supports hard-switched operation up to 100 kHz and ZVS/ZCS resonant modes, with dV/dt immunity of 4.5 V/ns and integrated body diode recovery Qrr = 110 nC - critical for reducing EMI and improving efficiency in LLC and active-clamp forward designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 500 V - Maximum blocking voltage for primary-side switching in universal-input offline SMPS. |
| RDS(on) max | 520 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25 °C - Enables low conduction loss in 100–300 W industrial adapters. |
| ID cont | 14 A at TC = 100 °C - Supports sustained output power without derating in compact heatsink layouts. |
| Qg | 28 nC - Reduces gate driver power demand and enables efficient 12 V gate drive in cost-sensitive designs. |
| EAS | 420 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche energy rating ensures reliability under transient overvoltage stress. |
| tfall | 12 ns at VDD = 400 V, ID = 7 A - Enables fast turn-off for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency PFC stages. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220FP (Full-Pak), plastic case with isolated metal flange (electrically insulated drain), 3-pin through-hole mounting, 1.5 mm creepage/clearance, rated for 2.5 kVAC isolation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main high-side power switch node | Connected to transformer primary or bus rail; electrically isolated from flange for safe PCB layout. |
| Gate (G) | Control input terminal | Receives PWM signal; requires <3.5 V threshold and ≤28 nC charge for full enhancement. |
| Source (S) | Power return and reference node | Common connection point for gate driver return, current sense resistor, and control IC ground. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superjunction technology | 7th-gen CoolMOS™ C7 architecture delivers 20% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. prior generation. |
| Fast body diode | Qrr = 110 nC and trr = 55 ns - reduces reverse recovery loss and EMI in bridge-leg configurations. |
| Isolated flange | TO-220FP package provides 2.5 kVAC insulation between drain and mounting surface - eliminates need for insulating pads. |
| Avalanche ruggedness | Rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with EAS = 420 mJ - supports robust operation in flyback snubberless designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP50R520CFD7 | RDS(on) = 520 mΩ (same), but in TO-220 package with non-isolated flange; Qg = 27 nC. | Requires insulating pad for drain-to-heatsink isolation; unsuitable where creepage >2.5 mm is mandated. | Select when cost is prioritized over safety certification requirements and board space permits insulation layer. |
| IPW60R099C7 | Lower RDS(on) = 99 mΩ at 600 V, higher ID = 43 A, Qg = 62 nC; TO-247 package. | Over-specified for 100–300 W range; increases gate drive complexity and layout area. | Choose only if future-proofing for 500 W+ upgrades or parallel operation is planned. |
Compared with IPP50R520CFD7 and IPW60R099C7, the IPP50R520CPHKSA1 uniquely balances isolation compliance, thermal performance, and gate drive simplicity for mid-power industrial SMPS - avoiding both insulation overhead and unnecessary overdesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The IPP50R520CPHKSA1 has a maximum rated junction temperature of 150 °C. Derating begins above Tj = 100 °C per the Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve, and continuous operation at full ID = 14 A requires TC ≤ 100 °C with adequate heatsinking. Thermal resistance RthJC is 1.2 K/W.
Does this MOSFET require a negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No. The device has a VGS(th) of 3.5 V (min) and is fully enhanced at VGS = 10 V. A gate drive of 0 V to 12 V is sufficient; negative voltage is not required or recommended. Gate drive must avoid exceeding ±20 V absolute maximum rating.
Can it replace IPP50R520CP in existing designs?
Yes - the IPP50R520CPHKSA1 is a direct drop-in replacement for the legacy IPP50R520CP in TO-220FP footprint. It offers identical RDS(on), pinout, and isolation rating, with improved Qg (28 nC vs. 32 nC) and tighter VGS(th) distribution, yielding marginally better efficiency and gate drive margin.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 100 kHz operation?
For 100 kHz hard-switching in a 400 V bus application, a gate resistor of 10 Ω (non-inductive) is recommended to balance switching speed (trise/tfall ≈ 15–20 ns) and gate oscillation damping. Lower values increase EMI risk; higher values raise switching losses beyond 15 Ω.
