Product details
Overview
IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 150 V, 21 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3 package, featuring 53 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, and optimized gate charge × RDS(on) figure-of-merit for high-frequency switching in DC-DC converters and synchronous rectifiers.
For engineers reviewing the IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 datasheet, IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 pinout, IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 application, or IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 84 A pulsed drain current capability, 60 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, 8.7–12 nC total gate charge, and thermal resistance of 2.2 K/W (junction-to-case), critical for thermally constrained industrial power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Infineon's OptiMOSTM3 silicon process, delivering low conduction loss via 44–53 mΩ RDS(on) and fast switching with 9 ns turn-on delay, 9 ns rise time, and 13 ns turn-off delay under standard 1.6 Ω gate drive. Its 667–887 pF input capacitance and 3.4 pF reverse transfer capacitance support stable high-speed gate control.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.0–1.2 V forward voltage at 21 A and 229 nC reverse recovery charge, enabling efficient synchronous rectification. JEDEC-qualified for industrial applications, it sustains operation from –55 °C to +175 °C with Pb-free, halogen-free, RoHS-compliant plating.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF640NPBF | RDS(on) = 150 mΩ @ 10 V; higher Qg (44 nC); lower VDS (200 V) | Less suitable for high-current, high-frequency SMPS due to higher conduction and switching loss | Prefer only where cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets and 200 V rating is mandatory |
| STP16NF15 | RDS(on) = 120 mΩ @ 10 V; 150 V rating; 16 A ID; no JEDEC industrial qualification | Limited to consumer-grade or non-safety-critical 12–24 V systems | Select when lower current (<16 A) and relaxed reliability requirements apply |
Compared with IRF640NPBF and STP16NF15, IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 delivers 2.8× lower RDS(on), 5.6× lower Qg, and certified industrial qualification-making it optimal for thermally dense, high-reliability 150 V power stages where efficiency and lifetime are prioritized over unit cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for IPP530N15N3GXKSA1?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V. Operation beyond this range risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended drive is 10 V for full enhancement, with 0 V to 15 V being typical for robust switching. Gate drive circuits must include clamping (e.g., Zener diodes) to prevent overshoot during fast transitions.
Does IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 have an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, it features a monolithic body diode with 21 A continuous forward current rating, 1.0–1.2 V forward voltage at 21 A and 25 °C, 229 nC reverse recovery charge, and 80 ns reverse recovery time. These values are measured at VGS = 0 V and enable use in synchronous rectification without external diodes in many topologies.
Can IPP530N15N3GXKSA1 be used in avalanche mode, and what is its rated energy capability?
Yes, it is rated for repetitive and single-pulse avalanche operation. The datasheet specifies 60 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy at ID = 18 A and RGS = 25 Ω. This rating assumes proper PCB layout, heatsinking, and gate drive to avoid thermal runaway during transient overvoltage events.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case, and how should it be applied in thermal design?
Junction-to-case thermal resistance is 2.2 K/W. This value applies when the metal tab (drain) is mounted to a heatsink with defined interface conditions (e.g., thermal paste, 0.5 N·m torque). It does not include junction-to-ambient path; designers must add heatsink thermal resistance and interface resistance to calculate total Tj.
