Product details
Overview
IPW50R140CPFKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 500 V, 140 mΩ CoolMOS™ C7 superjunction power MOSFET in TO-247-3 package, rated for 21 A continuous drain current at Tc = 25°C and 13.5 A at Tc = 100°C, with 19 nC total gate charge and 1.75 V typical gate threshold voltage - used in high-efficiency AC-DC SMPS primary-side switching stages.
For engineers reviewing the IPW50R140CPFKSA1 datasheet, IPW50R140CPFKSA1 pinout, IPW50R140CPFKSA1 application, or IPW50R140CPFKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) temperature stability, low gate charge for ZVS-compatible operation, avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 480 mJ), and thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.5 K/W) in high-power offline converters.
Technical Context
This device employs Infineon's 7th-generation CoolMOS™ trench-gate superjunction architecture optimized for hard-switched and resonant topologies. It delivers reduced conduction and switching losses via low Qg (19 nC), low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.23), and tightly controlled VGS(th) (1.75 V typ, 1.3–2.2 V min/max).
The MOSFET supports full-rated avalanche capability (EAS = 480 mJ @ Tj = 25°C) and features enhanced dv/dt immunity (50 V/ns min), enabling robust operation in PFC and LLC half-bridge primary switches without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 500 V - withstands peak line voltages up to 380 VAC mains with safety margin in universal-input SMPS. |
| RDS(on) max @ 100°C | 140 mΩ - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 12 A RMS in 100 W–300 W adapters. |
| ID cont @ Tc = 100°C | 13.5 A - defines usable current limit under real heatsink conditions in enclosed power supplies. |
| Qg total | 19 nC - reduces gate driver power demand and enables >200 kHz operation with standard bipolar drivers. |
| EAS | 480 mJ - sustains single-pulse inductive energy without failure during startup or overload transients. |
| RthJC | 0.5 K/W - allows 75°C junction rise with only 37.5 W dissipation on a modest copper-clad heatsink. |
| VGS(th) typ | 1.75 V - ensures reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V/5 V logic-level controllers and avoids false triggering. |
Pinout & Package
IPW50R140CPFKSA1 uses the industry-standard TO-247-3 through-hole package with isolated tab (non-conductive mounting surface), optimized for high-current PCB layouts and forced-air cooling.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main high-side power terminal | Connected directly to bulk capacitor and transformer primary; electrically tied to heatsink if non-isolated mounting used. |
| Gate (G) | Control input | Requires low-impedance drive path (<10 Ω series resistor) to suppress ringing due to high dV/dt (50 V/ns). |
| Source (S) | Power return and reference node | Serves as local ground for gate driver; layout must minimize inductance to avoid shoot-through during switching transitions. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 7th-gen CoolMOS™ trench technology | Reduces Qg × RDS(on) figure-of-merit by 25% vs. C6, improving efficiency in 100–300 kHz PFC stages. |
| Enhanced avalanche ruggedness | Guaranteed EAS = 480 mJ enables unclamped inductive switching without derating in flyback or LLC designs. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.23) | Minimizes Miller plateau duration, reducing switching transition time and associated losses in hard-switched converters. |
| Reduced gate threshold variation | VGS(th) tolerance of ±0.45 V ensures consistent turn-on timing across temperature and production lots. |
| Optimized for ZVS compatibility | Low Coss(tr) = 33 pF enables efficient zero-voltage switching in resonant LLC topologies above 250 kHz. |
Applications
| Server PSU Primary Switch | Industrial AC-DC Adapter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 80+ Titanium 1.5 kW server power supply operating at 100–250 kHz with active clamp forward topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main high-side switch in primary power stage; synchronized to PWM controller with 50 ns propagation delay tolerance. Use Value: 140 mΩ RDS(on) at 100°C maintains <1.2 W conduction loss at 15 A RMS, enabling >96% full-load efficiency. | Use Scenario: DIN-rail mounted 48 V/20 A industrial adapter with universal AC input and reinforced isolation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switching element in asymmetric half-bridge configuration; handles 350 V DC bus with 2× safety margin. Use Value: 480 mJ EAS rating eliminates need for external clamping circuits during output short-circuit events. |
| Telecom Rectifier Module | EV Charger Onboard PFC |
Use Scenario: -48 V telecom rectifier with 3.3 kW output, using interleaved boost PFC followed by phase-shifted full-bridge DC-DC. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Boost switch in high-frequency PFC stage; driven by UCC28070 with 150 kHz switching frequency. Use Value: 19 nC Qg reduces gate driver power consumption by 35% vs. legacy 200 mΩ MOSFETs, lowering thermal load on auxiliary supply. | Use Scenario: 11 kW onboard charger with dual-phase interleaved PFC stage feeding SiC DC-DC converter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in 3-phase Vienna rectifier; operates at 65 kHz with 100% duty cycle margin. Use Value: RthJC = 0.5 K/W enables direct mounting to cold plate, limiting ΔTj-c to <40°C at 12 A RMS, avoiding thermal throttling. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage superjunction MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP50N10F6 | 100 V VDS, 10 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220FP package - not voltage-compatible for 500 V systems. | Only suitable for low-voltage DC-DC, not AC-DC primary switching. | Select only for sub-100 V secondary-side synchronous rectification where voltage rating permits. |
| IPP60R190C7 | 600 V, 190 mΩ, same C7 generation but higher RDS(on) and 22 nC Qg. | Acceptable in lower-power (≤150 W) adapters where thermal headroom exists. | Choose when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets and board space allows larger heatsink. |
Compared with STP50N10F6 and IPP60R190C7, IPW50R140CPFKSA1 uniquely balances 500 V rating, 140 mΩ conduction loss, and 19 nC gate charge - making it optimal for 200–300 W high-density AC-DC supplies requiring both efficiency and reliability.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?
The IPW50R140CPFKSA1 is rated for continuous operation up to Tc = 100°C, with ID derated linearly from 21 A at 25°C to 13.5 A at 100°C. Exceeding 100°C case temperature risks exceeding the 150°C absolute maximum junction temperature, especially under high dv/dt stress.
Does this MOSFET require a negative gate turn-off voltage?
No - the device has a positive VGS(th) (1.3–2.2 V) and is designed for 0 V to +15 V gate drive. A negative turn-off voltage is not required or specified; however, a small negative bias (e.g., –2 V) may improve noise immunity in high-noise environments without affecting reliability.
Can IPW50R140CPFKSA1 replace older CoolMOS™ C3 or C6 devices in existing designs?
Yes - it is a direct drop-in replacement for IPW50R140CKSA1 (C6) with identical pinout, package, and voltage rating. The C7 version offers lower Qg and improved EAS, enabling efficiency gains without layout changes, though gate drive strength should be verified for faster switching.
Is the TO-247-3 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - IPW50R140CPFKSA1 carries the "P" suffix indicating lead-free (Pb-free) terminations and full RoHS 2011/65/EU compliance, including exemption 7a for high-melting-temperature solder alloys. The package meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level MSL-1.
