The IPA50R380CEXKSA2: The 380 mOhm maximum on-resistance at 3.2 A and 13 V gate drive determines conduction loss in the on-state. This translates to manageable switching losses in hard-switched topologies at frequencies up to the 100 kHz range, and a gate-drive circuit capable of sourcing a few hundred milliamps will handle the transition cleanly. Input capacitance (Ciss) is 584 pF at 100 V drain-source, a relatively low value that keeps the Miller plateau short and reduces the drive power needed.
Package and mounting — TO-220 Full Pack
The PG-TO220-3-FP (Full Pack) package has three through-hole leads and a fully isolated backside tab. No additional isolation pad is required when mounting to a heatsink, which reduces assembly steps and thermal resistance. Maximum power dissipation is 29.2 W at case temperature, limited by the junction-to-case thermal path. The through-hole mounting suits wave-solder or hand-solder assembly in prototype runs, rework, and low-to-medium volume production.
