Product details
Overview
IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a 800 V, 290 mΩ, 17 A (TC = 25°C) N-channel superjunction MOSFET in TO-247 package, optimized for high-voltage PFC and resonant LLC primary-side switching in industrial SMPS and server power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 datasheet, IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 pinout, IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 application, or IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 10 V gate drive, Eoss = 120 nJ, Qg = 42 nC, trr = 120 ns, and 100% avalanche-rated ruggedness.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Infineon's CoolMOS™ C3 family, featuring charge-compensated superjunction structure with reduced gate charge and output capacitance. It supports hard-switched and soft-switched topologies up to 100 kHz with low conduction and switching losses.
Designed for unclamped inductive switching (UIS) robustness, it delivers 100% rated avalanche energy without derating. Its threshold voltage VGS(th) = 3.5 V (min) ensures stable turn-on under wide temperature and supply variations in high-reliability power systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 800 V - Supports 400 V DC bus designs with ≥2× safety margin for transient overvoltage in telecom/server PSUs. |
| RDS(on) max | 290 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 17 A continuous drain current in TO-247 thermal environment. |
| Qg | 42 nC - Reduces gate driver power requirement and enables efficient 100 kHz operation in LLC half-bridge stages. |
| Eoss | 120 nJ @ VDS = 400 V - Low output charge minimizes turn-off loss and improves ZVS behavior in resonant converters. |
| trr | 120 ns - Fast body diode recovery suppresses shoot-through risk and reduces snubber losses in bridge configurations. |
| UIS Rating | 100% rated - Guarantees single-pulse avalanche capability up to IAR = 17 A without external clamping circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 uses the standard TO-247-3L package with isolated tab. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.5 K/W enables high-power dissipation with minimal heatsink footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DRAIN (Tab) | High-voltage power output node | Electrically connected to metal tab; requires insulated mounting and ≥0.5 mm creepage to adjacent conductors. |
| SOURCE | Power return reference for channel and gate drive | Low-inductance connection essential for minimizing dV/dt-induced false turn-on during switching transitions. |
| GATE | Control terminal for channel modulation | Requires 10 V nominal drive; Miller plateau region centered at ~5.5 V enables predictable switching timing control. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Superjunction technology | Enables 290 mΩ RDS(on) at 800 V rating-25% lower on-resistance than prior-generation CoolMOS™ C2 devices. |
| Reduced Qg/Qsw ratio | 42 nC total gate charge with 22 nC gate-to-drain charge-improves switching efficiency in high-frequency PFC boost stages. |
| Fast, soft body diode | 120 ns reverse recovery time with low peak reverse recovery current-reduces EMI and eliminates need for external anti-parallel diode in some LLC designs. |
| 100% UIS tested | Each unit undergoes single-pulse avalanche stress test at rated current-ensures field reliability in overload and short-circuit conditions. |
Applications
| Server Power Supply | Industrial UPS |
|---|---|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW80N80F6 | RDS(on) = 320 mΩ, Qg = 48 nC, Eoss = 145 nJ | Higher conduction loss and slower switching; requires larger heatsink in >2 kW designs. | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency targets and layout space permits larger thermal solution. |
| IXTH80N80L2 | RDS(on) = 300 mΩ, Qg = 52 nC, no UIS rating | Lacks 100% avalanche testing; unsuitable for unclamped inductive loads like motor drives or UPS hold-up. | Select only in tightly controlled, clamped topologies where failure modes are fully mitigated by design. |
Compared with STW80N80F6 and IXTH80N80L2, IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 delivers superior efficiency in high-frequency PFC and LLC due to its lower RDS(on), reduced Eoss, and guaranteed avalanche ruggedness-critical for industrial-grade power system longevity.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 at TC = 100°C?
The maximum continuous drain current is 12.5 A at case temperature 100°C, derated from 17 A at 25°C per the SOA curve. This value accounts for thermal limits of the TO-247 package and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.5 K/W, ensuring safe operation without exceeding 150°C maximum junction temperature.
Does IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 require negative gate voltage for reliable turn-off?
No. The device operates reliably with 0 V gate-source voltage for turn-off; its VGS(th) minimum of 3.5 V ensures no unintended conduction at room temperature. However, applying –5 V enhances noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments such as multi-kW bridge circuits with fast switching edges.
Can IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 replace IPW80R360C3 in an existing design?
Yes, with minor layout review: both share identical TO-247-3L pinout and voltage rating, but IPW80R290C3AFKSA1 offers 20% lower RDS(on) and 15% lower Qg. Gate drive strength and thermal margin should be re-evaluated, especially if operating near original design limits.
Is the drain tab electrically isolated in IPW80R290C3AFKSA1?
No-the drain is internally connected to the metal tab. Electrical isolation must be achieved externally using insulating pads or shoulder washers. Clearance and creepage distances must comply with IEC 62368-1 requirements for 800 V working voltage, including ≥4 mm creepage on PCB surfaces adjacent to the tab.
