Product details
Overview
IPU13N03LA G from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel logic-level power MOSFET in PG-TO251-3-1 package, rated for 25 V VDS, 30 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, and 12.8 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It delivers high-frequency switching performance in synchronous buck converters and motor drive half-bridges with 175 °C maximum junction temperature and JEDEC-qualified reliability.
For engineers reviewing the IPU13N03LA G datasheet, IPU13N03LA G pinout, IPU13N03LA G application, or IPU13N03LA G equivalent, this device is selected for its low gate charge × RDS(on) figure of merit (FOM), superior thermal resistance (RthJC = 3.2 K/W), and robust 6 kV/µs dv/dt immunity in hard-switching topologies.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-based OptiMOS®2 process optimized for logic-level gate drive compatibility and fast switching in DC/DC converter primary-side and synchronous rectifier roles. Its 1.6 V typical gate threshold voltage enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V controllers without level-shifting.
Dynamic parameters-including 6.3–8.3 nC total gate charge, 41–62 pF Crss, and 2.6–3.9 ns fall time-are characterized under standardized 15 V VDD, 15 A ID, and 2.7 Ω gate resistor conditions, supporting precise loss modeling in high-efficiency power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 25 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V input rail applications with margin against transients |
| RDS(on) max | 12.8 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 30 A - Enables ≤3.9 W conduction loss at full load in 30 A switch node |
| Qg | 6.3–8.3 nC - Determines gate driver current requirement and switching transition time in 500 kHz+ converters |
| EAS | 60 mJ (ID = 24 A, RGS = 25 Ω) - Supports unclamped inductive switching in motor control without external snubbers |
| RthJC | 3.2 K/W - Allows 47 A chip-limited current handling when mounted on thermally optimized PCB with 6 cm² copper area |
| dv/dt immunity | 6 kV/µs at Tj,max = 175 °C - Prevents false turn-on during high-slew-rate commutation in half-bridge configurations |
| VGS(th) | 1.2–2.0 V - Ensures reliable enhancement-mode operation with standard logic-level drivers and noise margin at elevated temperature |
Pinout & Package
IPU13N03LA G uses the PG-TO251-3-1 package: surface-mount variant of TO-251 with isolated leadframe, 3-terminal configuration, and drain-connected tab for direct PCB thermal coupling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Reference node for gate drive; connects to low-side return path and defines common-mode voltage for driver IC |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control terminal | High-impedance input requiring <8.3 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD and layout-induced ringing |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output terminal | Exposed metal tab tied internally to drain; must be soldered to ≥6 cm² copper pour for thermal management per RthJC spec |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS ≥ 4.5 V-compatible with microcontroller GPIO and low-voltage PWM controllers |
| Optimized FOM (Qg × RDS(on)) | ~105 nC·mΩ - balances switching loss and conduction loss for 300–1000 kHz DC/DC designs |
| 175 °C rated junction temperature | Enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating below 30 A |
| JEDEC-qualified reliability | Complies with J-STD-020 (reflow) and JESD22-A108 (temperature cycling) for automotive and industrial production |
| RoHS-compliant Pb-free plating | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU with matte tin lead finish-no post-assembly reflow concerns |
Applications
| Server VRM Power Stage | Industrial BLDC Motor Inverter |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPD13N03LA G | PG-TO252-3-11 package; 3.2 K/W RthJC; identical die but higher thermal mass due to larger leadframe | Better suited for high-power density layouts where PCB space allows DPAK footprint | Select when board-level thermal design prioritizes case-to-PCB heat transfer over component height |
| IPF13N03LA G | PG-TO252-3-23 package; same RDS(on) and Qg, but different leadform geometry for automated placement | Preferred for high-volume SMT lines using vision-guided pick-and-place with tighter coplanarity tolerance | Choose for production scalability where DPAK variant offers better placement yield than TO-251 |
Compared with IPD13N03LA G and IPF13N03LA G, IPU13N03LA G provides identical electrical performance in a lower-profile TO-251 package-ideal for height-constrained modules where 1.7 mm max component height is critical, while maintaining full thermal capability via optimized pad layout.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for IPU13N03LA G at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 30 A at TC = 100 °C, limited by bondwire capacity-not silicon thermal limits-as confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. At TC = 25 °C, the same limit applies due to internal packaging constraints, not junction temperature.
Does IPU13N03LA G include an integrated body diode, and what are its key conduction characteristics?
Yes, it features a monolithic parasitic body diode with 30 A continuous forward current rating and 0.95–1.2 V forward voltage at 30 A and 25 °C. Reverse recovery charge is 10 nC under 15 V reverse bias and 400 A/µs di/dt, enabling use in synchronous rectification without external Schottky replacement.
Can IPU13N03LA G be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO without a gate driver?
It can be partially enhanced at 3.3 V (VGS(th) max = 2.0 V), but RDS(on) rises significantly above 12.8 mΩ. Full enhancement requires ≥4.5 V; therefore, a level-shifting buffer or dedicated gate driver is recommended for low-loss operation at rated current.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) and how should it be applied in thermal design?
RthJC is 3.2 K/W, measured with the device mounted on a vertical FR4 PCB with 6 cm² copper area for drain connection. This value assumes minimal thermal interface resistance; actual board-level RthJA depends on copper area, layer count, and airflow-designers must verify junction temperature using Tj = TC + Ptot × RthJC.
