The IPI60R385CP: It comes in a TO-262-3 (I²Pak) through-hole package — the long-lead variant of the D²Pak, preferred for designs where the PCB sees vibration or where a through-hole joint is specified over a surface-mount reflow. Rds(on) is 385 mOhm at 5.2 A, 10 V. The 83 W package rating sets the thermal limit. Gate charge is 22 nC at 10 V. This is moderate for a 600 V, 9 A part.
Parametric profile — switching loss and drive budget
Input capacitance Ciss is 790 pF at 100 V Vds. Threshold voltage is 3.5 V max at 340 µA. The 10 V drive voltage reaches the rated minimum Rds(on). Maximum gate-source voltage is ±20 V, giving a comfortable margin for gate-drive overshoot in a hard-switched bridge leg — a common failure point in 600 V designs.
Lifecycle and compliance — active production, no LTB worry
RoHS compliance is confirmed as ROHS3 — the part is lead-free and meets the latest EU exemption rules. No separate lead-free certification document is needed for a standard commercial BOM.
Package and mounting — the I²Pak through-hole footprint
The TO-262-3 (I²Pak) package is the through-hole sibling of the D²Pak (TO-263). It has three leads and a metal tab that is electrically connected to the drain. The long leads suit wave-solder assembly and provide a mechanical anchor in high-vibration environments like motor drives or industrial PFC stages. The supplier device package code is PG-TO262-3-1 — Infineon's internal drawing number for this lead form. The tab is the primary thermal path; a heatsink clip or a bolted tab to the chassis is expected for continuous operation above a few amps.
