Product details
Overview
IPP70N10S312AKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode automotive-grade power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3-1 package, rated for 100 V VDS, 70 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 11.6 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It is AEC-Q101 qualified, 100% avalanche tested, and operates up to 175 °C - deployed in high-reliability DC-DC converters and motor control stages in engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the IPP70N10S312AKSA1 datasheet, IPP70N10S312AKSA1 pinout, IPP70N10S312AKSA1 application, or IPP70N10S312AKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.2 K/W RthJC, 410 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, gate plateau voltage of 5.5 V, and diode forward voltage of 1.2 V at 70 A - critical for thermal design, fault robustness, and synchronous rectification efficiency.
Technical Context
This OptiMOS™-T device uses trench-gate superjunction technology optimized for low conduction and switching losses in hard-switched 12–48 V automotive power stages. Its 9.7 mΩ typical RDS(on) and 51 nC total gate charge enable high-efficiency operation at 100 kHz PWM frequencies with minimal drive loss.
The integrated body diode exhibits 100 ns reverse recovery time and 265 nC Qrr, supporting fast freewheeling in buck converters and H-bridge motor drives without external Schottky supplementation under nominal conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - supports 48 V automotive battery systems with 2× safety margin against load dump transients |
| ID (continuous) | 70 A @ TC = 25 °C - delivers full output current without derating on standard TO-220 heatsinks |
| RDS(on) max | 11.6 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - limits conduction loss to ≤5.7 W at 70 A, enabling compact thermal design |
| EAS | 410 mJ - withstands single-pulse inductive energy from 35 A loads, critical for solenoid and relay driving |
| Qg | 66 nC max - determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in 100 kHz+ applications |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.0 V - ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V logic-level drivers while avoiding false triggering |
| Tj max | +175 °C - enables operation in under-hood environments without thermal shutdown in engine control units |
Pinout & Package
IPP70N10S312AKSA1 is housed in PG-TO220-3-1 package: insulated tab, vertical mounting, lead-free, RoHS-compliant, MSL1 rated for 260 °C peak reflow. The case serves as the Drain terminal; leads are Gate (pin 1), Source (pin 2), Drain (tab).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (left) | Gate | High-impedance control input requiring ≤66 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD |
| Pin 2 (center) | Source | Reference node for gate drive; carries full load current and must be low-inductance routed |
| Drain (tab) | Drain | High-current power path; electrically connected to heatsink - requires isolation if heatsink is grounded |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive powertrain and chassis applications per stress test requirements |
| 100% unclamped inductive switching (UIS) tested | Each unit verified to survive 410 mJ avalanche energy - no screening failures in production |
| Optimized body diode | 100 ns trr and 265 nC Qrr reduce switching loss and ringing in synchronous rectifier topologies |
| Thermal resistance RthJC | 1.2 K/W - enables >100 W dissipation with modest heatsinking, reducing system size vs. higher-Rth alternatives |
| Green product (RoHS) | Lead-free terminations and halogen-free molding compound compliant with EU Directive 2011/65/EU |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP70N10S3-12 | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in packaging marking (no 'A' suffix) and minor traceability coding | No functional difference; accepted interchangeably in all automotive OEM designs | Select when legacy BOM references non-AKSA1 variant or when distributor stock favors base part number |
| IPB70N10S3-12 | Same silicon, but in PG-TO263-3-2 (D²PAK) package; RthJC = 1.2 K/W unchanged, but PCB thermal path differs | Better suited for automated SMT assembly; requires different footprint and reflow profile vs. through-hole TO-220 | Choose for space-constrained PCBs where surface-mount is mandatory and thermal vias can replicate TO-220 heatsink performance |
Compared with IPP70N10S312AKSA1, IPP70N10S3-12 offers identical performance in legacy form factor, while IPB70N10S3-12 shifts thermal management from heatsink to PCB - enabling either drop-in replacement or layout-driven migration to SMT.

FAQ
Is IPP70N10S312AKSA1 pin-compatible with IPP70N10S3-12?
Yes - both use identical PG-TO220-3-1 package with Gate, Source, Drain pinout in the same physical configuration. The 'AKSA1' suffix denotes enhanced traceability and packaging per Infineon's 2010+ quality revision, but mechanical and electrical pin mapping is fully identical.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for 100 kHz switching?
With 66 nC Qg and typical gate driver output impedance <2 Ω, a 10 Ω series gate resistor achieves ~100 ns rise/fall times and limits peak gate current to <1.5 A - balancing EMI control and switching loss. Values above 22 Ω increase tr/tf beyond 200 ns and raise conduction loss disproportionately.
Does the body diode support synchronous rectification in buck converters?
It supports forced-commutated synchronous rectification at ≤100 kHz with acceptable loss, but its 100 ns trr and 265 nC Qrr cause measurable reverse recovery loss versus discrete Schottky diodes. For >95% efficiency targets, external SiC Schottky clamping is recommended in high-frequency designs.
Can IPP70N10S312AKSA1 replace older IPP70N10S3-09 in existing designs?
No - the '-09' variant has 9.5 mΩ max RDS(on) and lower Qg (55 nC), while this '-12' version trades some conduction loss for improved avalanche ruggedness and thermal stability. Substitution requires revalidation of thermal margin and gate drive capability due to higher Qg and RDS(on).
