Product details
Overview
IPS04N03LA G from Infineon Technologies is a logic-level N-channel MOSFET in PG-TO252-3-11 package, rated for 25 V VDS, 50 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 3.8 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features 175 °C maximum junction temperature, low gate charge (Qg = 31–41 nC), and integrated body diode with 50 A continuous forward current - deployed in high-efficiency DC-DC synchronous rectification stages.
For engineers reviewing the IPS04N03LA G datasheet, IPS04N03LA G pinout, IPS04N03LA G application, or IPS04N03LA G equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 4.5 V drive, thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.3 K/W), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 600 mJ), and reverse diode dv/dt capability (6 kV/µs) in high-speed switching power supplies.
Technical Context
This OptiMOS®2 device uses planar trench-gate technology optimized for low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit (FOM), enabling high-efficiency operation in 12 V input synchronous buck converters. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.2–2.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drivers.
Thermal performance is defined by RthJC = 1.3 K/W (junction-to-case) and RthJA = 50 K/W on 6 cm² PCB copper area. The integrated body diode supports synchronous rectification with Qrr = 15 nC and VSD = 0.89–1.2 V at IF = 50 A and Tj = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 25 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V bus applications with margin |
| RDS(on) max | 3.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 50 A in compact layouts |
| ID continuous | 50 A at TC = 25 °C - Limited by bondwire; usable up to 100 °C case with derating |
| Qg | 31–41 nC - Low gate drive power requirement for 500 kHz–1 MHz switching |
| EAS | 600 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure in hard-switched topologies |
| RthJC | 1.3 K/W - Supports >100 W power dissipation with moderate heatsinking |
| dv/dt rating | 6 kV/µs - Resists false turn-on during fast voltage transients in motor drives |
Pinout & Package
IPS04N03LA G is housed in PG-TO252-3-11 (DPAK) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Drain (tab), Pin 3 = Source.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control terminal | Accepts logic-level 4.5 V drive; low Ciss (3909–5199 pF) minimizes driver loading |
| Pin 2 (Drain) | High-side or low-side switch node | Exposed copper tab - primary thermal path to PCB; electrically connected to drain |
| Pin 3 (Source) | Reference node for gate drive | Provides return path for gate current and source current; ties to power ground or SW node |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive compatibility | Turns fully on at VGS = 4.5 V - eliminates need for gate boosters in 5 V or 3.3 V control systems |
| Optimized FOM (RDS(on) × Qg) | ~120 mΩ·nC - balances conduction and switching losses for high-frequency DC-DC converters |
| Robust body diode | Qrr = 15 nC, VSD ≤ 1.2 V - reduces reverse recovery loss and EMI in synchronous rectifiers |
| High-temperature operation | Rated to Tj = 175 °C - supports sealed or high-ambient environments without derating penalties |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPD04N03LA G | Same die, PG-TO252-3-11 package, identical RDS(on) and Qg; differs only in marking and internal traceability | No functional difference - qualified for same JEDEC target applications | Select when requiring Infineon's standard DPAK variant with full production traceability |
| IRLHS6342TRPBF | Higher RDS(on) (4.5 mΩ @ 4.5 V), lower Qg (25 nC), smaller 2×2 mm PQFN package | Better suited for space-constrained portable designs; less thermal mass than TO252 | Choose for ultra-compact 12 V POL where board area outweighs thermal performance |
Compared with IPD04N03LA G, IPS04N03LA G offers identical electrical specs but distinct internal lot tracking; versus IRLHS6342TRPBF, it trades higher RDS(on) for superior thermal handling and higher pulse current capability in industrial-grade layouts.

FAQ
Is IPS04N03LA G suitable for synchronous rectification in a 48 V input buck converter?
No - its 25 V VDS rating is insufficient for 48 V bus applications. It is designed for ≤12 V input systems (e.g., server VRMs, automotive 12 V rails). For 48 V, consider Infineon's OptiMOS™ 5 60 V or 80 V families with appropriate RDS(on) and Qg trade-offs.
What is the maximum PCB copper area required to achieve RthJA = 50 K/W?
A 6 cm² (e.g., 40 mm × 40 mm) single-layer 70 µm thick copper area connected to the drain tab achieves RthJA = 50 K/W in vertical still-air orientation. Smaller areas increase thermal resistance linearly; doubling copper area yields only marginal improvement due to convection limits.
Does IPS04N03LA G have avalanche ruggedness rated for repetitive operation?
No - the 600 mJ EAS rating is for single-pulse conditions only (ID = 45 A, RGS = 25 Ω). Repetitive avalanche stress is not characterized or guaranteed; system design must avoid repeated inductive energy dumping into the device.
Can the body diode be used for freewheeling in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM)?
Yes - the body diode supports 50 A continuous forward current and exhibits low VSD (0.89–1.2 V) and Qrr = 15 nC, making it suitable for DCM freewheeling in synchronous buck or boost converters below 1 MHz, provided junction temperature remains within 175 °C limit.
