Product details
Overview
SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode logic-level SIPMOS® power transistor in PG-TO220-3 package, rated for -100 V VDS, 15 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C), and 0.20 Ω max RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V. It is avalanche-rated, AEC-Q101 qualified, and used in automotive DC-DC converters and industrial high-side load switches.
For engineers reviewing the SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 datasheet, SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 pinout, SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 application, or SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -100 V breakdown voltage, -15 A continuous current capability at 100 °C case temperature, logic-level gate drive compatibility down to -4.5 V, and integrated avalanche energy rating of 128 mJ.
Technical Context
This device operates as a high-side switching element with P-channel topology, requiring negative gate-source voltage for turn-on. Its logic-level threshold (VGS(th) = -1 to -2 V) enables direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry.
The MOSFET features low thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.17 K/W) and robust unclamped inductive switching capability (EAS = 128 mJ), supporting reliable operation in automotive power management systems where transient overvoltage and thermal cycling are critical.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -100 V - Withstands reverse-biased drain-source voltage up to 100 V in blocking state |
| ID (continuous) | -15 A at TC = 25 °C - Supports 15 A steady-state load current with adequate heatsinking |
| RDS(on) max | 0.20 Ω at VGS = -10 V - Ensures ≤3.2 W conduction loss at -15 A, enabling efficient high-side switching |
| EAS | 128 mJ - Absorbs single-pulse inductive energy without failure in unclamped switching events |
| VGS(th) | -1.5 V typ - Turns on fully with standard logic-level gate drivers (e.g., 3.3 V MCU outputs) |
| Qg | 62 nC max - Determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed in PWM applications |
| Tj range | -55 °C to +175 °C - Qualified for under-hood automotive environments per AEC-Q101 |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-TO220-3 (standard through-hole power package with isolated tab; pin 1 = Gate, pin 2 = Drain, pin 3 = Source).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives negative gate drive signal; logic-level compatible with -4.5 V min turn-on |
| Pin 2 (Drain) | High-side power input | Connected to supply rail; electrically tied to metal tab for thermal conduction |
| Pin 3 (Source) | Power return / reference | Provides common return path; referenced to system ground in high-side configuration |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche-rated | 128 mJ single-pulse EAS enables robustness against inductive kickback in relay/motor drive circuits |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive powertrain and body electronics per stress test requirements |
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) ≤ -2 V ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V or 5 V controllers without external level shifters |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with IEC61249-2-21 and EU RoHS Directive for environmentally constrained designs |
Applications
| Automotive Body Control Module | Industrial High-Side Load Switch |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Controlling 12 V/24 V solenoids, lamps, and actuators in vehicle door modules and seat controls. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch managing power delivery with fast turn-off to suppress inductive flyback. Use Value: Integrated avalanche capability eliminates need for external snubbers; AEC-Q101 qualification ensures reliability across temperature cycles. | Use Scenario: Power sequencing and fault-isolated supply control in programmable logic controllers (PLCs). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: P-channel MOSFET configured as active-high enable switch with controlled slew rate. Use Value: Low RDS(on) (0.20 Ω) minimizes voltage drop and heat generation during continuous 15 A operation. |
| DC-DC Converter Synchronous Rectifier | Reverse Polarity Protection Circuit |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in isolated 48 V–12 V buck converters for ADAS ECUs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side synchronous rectifier operating in forced CCM with precise gate timing. Use Value: Fast switching (tr = 31 ns, tf = 44 ns) reduces transition losses; low Qgd/Qg ratio improves controllability. | Use Scenario: Input protection for 24 V industrial sensors and I/O modules exposed to field wiring errors. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-blocking element placed in series with positive supply rail. Use Value: -100 V VBR(DSS) withstands load dump transients; low leakage (<1 μA at 25 °C) prevents standby current drain. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB180P04P4L-02 | VDS = -40 V, RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ @ -10 V - lower voltage, much lower on-resistance | Not suitable for 100 V bus applications; limited to 24–48 V systems | Select only if system Vbus ≤ 40 V and ultra-low conduction loss is prioritized |
| SPW24N60C3 | N-channel, 600 V, 24 A - requires high-side gate driver; no logic-level compatibility | Used in high-voltage AC-DC PFC stages; incompatible with direct MCU drive | Choose only when N-channel topology and isolated gate drive are already implemented |
Compared with IPB180P04P4L-02 and SPW24N60C3, SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 uniquely combines -100 V rating, logic-level gate drive, and AEC-Q101 qualification-making it the only drop-in solution for automotive 12/24 V high-side switching without auxiliary level-shifting or driver ICs.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating junction temperature for SPP15P10PLHXKSA1?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +175 °C, validated per AEC-Q101. Continuous operation above 150 °C requires derating of ID and Ptot per the thermal curves on page 4 of the datasheet. Thermal design must maintain Tj ≤ 175 °C under worst-case ambient and power dissipation conditions.
Does SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 have an integrated body diode, and what are its characteristics?
Yes-it includes a monolithic reverse recovery diode with IS = -15 A continuous, VSD = -0.96 V typ at -15 A and 25 °C, trr = 165 ns max, and Qrr = 675 nC max. These parameters are specified for use in freewheeling paths and synchronous rectification, not as a replacement for Schottky diodes in high-frequency applications.
Can SPP15P10PLHXKSA1 be used in parallel configurations?
Parallel operation is feasible but requires matched gate resistors, symmetrical PCB layout, and thermal coupling to ensure current sharing. The device's positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (see Fig. 9) supports inherent current balancing above 100 °C, though dynamic imbalance during switching must be mitigated via gate drive tuning and layout optimization.
Is the metal tab of the PG-TO220-3 package electrically connected to any internal node?
Yes-the drain is internally connected to the metal tab. This is confirmed by the package outline and thermal test conditions (RthJC measured from junction to soldering point on tab). Electrical isolation from heatsink or chassis must be maintained using insulating pads or shoulder washers unless drain is referenced to system ground.
