Device overview and key ratings
The Infineon IPA60R145CFD7XKSA1 is a CoolMOS CFD7 N-channel power MOSFET rated for a continuous drain current of 9A at a case temperature of 25°C. This device sits in Infineon's 600 V CoolMOS CFD7 family, designed for high-efficiency power conversion in switched-mode power supplies, PFC stages, and lighting ballasts. The 9A rating defines the DC conduction capability under ideal thermal conditions; real-world derating depends on heatsinking and ambient temperature, so the thermal design must be sized for the actual load current and switching losses.
For BOM planning, this removes the supply-risk clock that comes with NRND or EOL parts.
The tube is the shipping medium, not the device case; the MOSFET itself is a through-hole or surface-mount package consistent with the CoolMOS CFD7 family. When ordering, the tube quantity affects kitting and reel-free handling in low-to-medium volume production. For high-volume pick-and-place, verify whether a tape-and-reel variant is available for the same die.
