Product details

500 V, 12 A CoolMOS N-channel — the conduction loss and switching drive picture

The Infineon IPA50R299CPXKSA1079 is a 500 V, 12 A N-channel CoolMOS MOSFET in a TO-220 Full Pack through-hole package.

Gate charge and input capacitance — what drives the switching speed

For a hard-switched converter running at 100 kHz, the average gate-drive current needed is roughly 3.1 mA — a standard 1 A gate driver handles the peak charge current without issue.

Full-pack isolation and temperature grade

The TO-220 Full Pack (PG-TO220-3-31) encapsulates the backside drain tab in moulding compound, providing galvanic isolation between the tab and the heatsink — no insulating pad or washer is needed, which simplifies assembly and reduces thermal resistance through the package back.

Frequently asked questions

What is the gate charge and what does it mean for the driver?

Total gate charge is 31 nC at Vgs = 10 V.

What package is IPA50R299CPXKSA1079 in and does it need an insulating pad?

It is in a TO-220 Full Pack (PG-TO220-3-31) where the backside drain tab is encapsulated in moulding compound, providing isolation. No insulating pad or washer is needed between the tab and the heatsink.
