Switching and thermal — the numbers behind the heatsink
The IPI60R299CP: Input capacitance Ciss is 1100 pF at 100 V drain-source — a moderate figure that, combined with the 29 nC gate charge, means a standard gate-driver IC can switch it at tens of kilohertz without excessive cross-conduction. The 96 W maximum power dissipation (Tc) is the package-level thermal limit; a real design will derate based on case-to-heatsink thermal resistance and ambient temperature. The -55 °C to 150 °C junction temperature range covers industrial and automotive under-hood environments — fine for outdoor telecom rectifiers and solar inverter DC-DC stages.
Lifecycle and compliance
The IPI60R299CP carries an Active lifecycle status and is ROHS3 compliant.
