Product details
Overview
IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 from Infineon Technologies is an AEC-Q101 qualified N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in PG-TO220-3-1 package, rated for 100 V VDS, 12.1 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 70 A, with 175 °C maximum junction temperature and 100% avalanche tested. It serves as a high-current switching element in automotive DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 datasheet, IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 pinout, IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 application, or IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 12.1 mΩ on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, 280 A pulsed drain current capability, 410 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and MSL1 reflow compatibility up to 260 °C - critical for under-hood automotive modules and high-reliability industrial inverters.
Technical Context
This OptiMOS™-T device uses trench-gate superjunction technology optimized for low conduction and switching losses in hard-switched topologies. Its gate threshold voltage (1.2–2.4 V) enables robust TTL/CMOS-level drive compatibility, while its 90–135 pF Crss and 60–80 nC total gate charge support efficient 100 kHz–500 kHz operation in synchronous rectification and PWM motor drives.
The integrated body diode exhibits 0.6–1.2 V forward voltage at 70 A and 80 ns reverse recovery time with 185 nC Qrr, enabling reliable freewheeling in inductive loads without external Schottky supplementation in many 12–48 V systems.
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 |
| RDS(on) max @ VGS=10 V | 12.1 mΩ - enables ≤1.2 W conduction loss at 70 A continuous drain current |
| ID continuous @ TC=100 °C | 48 A - defines thermal-limited output in heatsink-constrained automotive ECUs |
| EAS single pulse | 410 mJ - sustains repetitive inductive turn-off stress in 12 V starter relays and solenoid drivers |
| Qg total | 60–80 nC - determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in 200 kHz SMPS designs |

Pinout & Package
IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 is housed in a PG-TO220-3-1 package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard three-terminal layout, and through-hole mounting. The package meets JEDEC TO-220AB mechanical outline and supports >125 W power dissipation with adequate heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Low-side reference node; connects directly to PCB ground plane or source return path |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOSFET gate requiring <100 nA leakage drive; sensitive to ESD |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output / high-side switch node | Internally bonded to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless floating drain topology used |
Key Features

FAQ
What is the maximum safe gate-source voltage for IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V. Operation above +20 V risks irreversible gate oxide breakdown, while negative voltages beyond –20 V may cause threshold shift or gate damage. Recommended drive range is 0 V to 12 V for logic-level compatibility, with 10 V ensuring full enhancement and minimal RDS(on).
Does IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes - a series gate resistor (typically 5–22 Ω) is required to dampen parasitic oscillations caused by gate loop inductance and Crss feedback. Without it, ringing can exceed VGS ratings or induce shoot-through in bridge configurations. Resistor value must balance switching speed, EMI, and driver capability per application layout.
Can IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 replace older SIPMOS devices like BSP78 in automotive body control modules?
No - BSP78 is a 40 V, 3.5 A intelligent high-side switch with integrated protection and diagnostics, whereas IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 is a discrete 100 V, 70 A power MOSFET requiring external gate driving, current sensing, and fault handling. They serve fundamentally different functional roles and are not interchangeable.
Is the drain tab of IPP70N10S3L12AKSA2 electrically isolated from the package mount surface?
No - in the PG-TO220-3-1 package, the metal tab is internally connected to the drain terminal. Electrical isolation from the heatsink requires insulating hardware (e.g., silicone pad + shoulder washer) or use of a fully isolated mounting kit. Failure to isolate may cause short-circuit if heatsink is grounded.
