Product details
Overview
SPP15N60C3 from Infineon Technologies is a 600 V, 15 A CoolMOS™ C3 superjunction N-channel power MOSFET in PG-TO220 package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.28 Ω at Tj = 25°C, ultra-low gate charge (Qg = 63 nC), and periodic avalanche rating. It serves as a high-efficiency primary-side switch in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial AC-DC converters operating up to 150°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the SPP15N60C3 datasheet, SPP15N60C3 pinout, SPP15N60C3 application, or SPP15N60C3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 50 V/ns dv/dt capability, 460 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, 1660 pF input capacitance, and thermal resistance RthJC = 0.8 K/W - critical for high-density, thermally constrained power designs.
Technical Context
This device implements Infineon's third-generation CoolMOS™ technology optimized for hard-switched and resonant topologies. Its low effective output capacitance (Co(er) = 80 pF) and minimized reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 40 pF) reduce switching losses and improve EMI behavior in 65–100 kHz flyback and LLC converters.
The MOSFET integrates a robust body diode with trr = 460 ns and Qrr = 27 µC, enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and bidirectional power flow applications where reverse recovery performance directly impacts efficiency and voltage overshoot.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS max | 600 V - supports 400 V DC-link systems with 50% safety margin for surge and ringing |
| RDS(on) | 0.28 Ω @ Tj = 25°C - enables <1.3 W conduction loss at 9.4 A continuous current |
| Qg | 63 nC - reduces gate drive power and allows use of smaller, lower-cost drivers |
| EAS | 460 mJ - withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure in unclamped inductive switching |
| dv/dt rating | 50 V/ns @ Tj = 125°C - ensures noise immunity and prevents spurious turn-on in high-speed switching |
| Ciss | 1660 pF - defines gate-to-source + gate-to-drain capacitance affecting drive loop stability |
| RthJC | 0.8 K/W - enables 156 W power dissipation with modest heatsinking at TC = 25°C |
Pinout & Package
PG-TO220-3-31 package with fully isolated case (2500 VAC, 1 min). Pin 1: Gate; Pin 2: Drain (tab); Pin 3: Source.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | High-impedance control terminal requiring low-inductance gate loop layout to suppress oscillation |
| Pin 2 | Drain (Tab) | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for thermal path and electrical isolation |
| Pin 3 | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; tied to PCB ground plane for EMI control |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low gate charge | Qg = 63 nC - cuts gate drive losses by >30% vs. legacy 600 V MOSFETs at same RDS(on) |
| Periodic avalanche rated | EAR = 0.8 mJ - supports repetitive inductive switching in motor drives without derating |
| Extreme dv/dt immunity | 50 V/ns - eliminates need for external snubbers in high-frequency PFC designs |
| Low effective output capacitance | Co(er) = 80 pF - reduces turn-off energy loss and improves ZVS transition in resonant converters |
| Enhanced body diode | trr = 460 ns, Qrr = 27 µC - lowers reverse recovery loss and voltage spike in bridge-leg configurations |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP15NM60ND | RDS(on) = 0.32 Ω, Qg = 68 nC, no avalanche rating | Lacks periodic avalanche capability; requires external clamping in inductive loads | Lower cost but higher conduction loss and reduced ruggedness in unclamped circuits |
| IPP60R190C7 | RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω, Qg = 52 nC, 650 V rating | Higher voltage margin and lower RDS(on), but larger die area increases gate drive complexity | Better efficiency at high current, yet demands tighter gate loop layout due to faster switching |
Compared with STP15NM60ND and IPP60R190C7, the SPP15N60C3 delivers optimal balance of ruggedness (EAS, dv/dt), thermal performance (RthJC), and drive simplicity (Qg) for mid-power industrial SMPS where reliability and layout robustness outweigh marginal efficiency gains.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SPP15N60C3 at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 9.4 A at TC = 100°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value accounts for thermal derating due to junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.8 K/W) and safe operating area limits at elevated temperatures.
Does SPP15N60C3 have an isolated package, and what is its isolation rating?
Yes - the PG-TO220-3-31 variant features a fully isolated package rated for 2500 VAC for 1 minute between drain (tab) and source/gate terminals. This eliminates need for insulating hardware in heatsink-mounted configurations and simplifies creepage/clearance compliance.
How does the body diode performance compare to standard silicon MOSFETs?
The integrated body diode has trr = 460 ns and Qrr = 27 µC at Tj = 25°C, significantly improved over first-gen superjunction MOSFETs. Its soft recovery characteristic minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI during commutation, making it suitable for half-bridge and synchronous rectifier use.
Can SPP15N60C3 be used in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes - its low effective output capacitance (Co(er) = 80 pF) and controlled Crss (40 pF) enable predictable resonant tank behavior in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge converters. Verified ZVS operation is documented up to 150 kHz with 480 V VDS and 15 A ID.
