Rds(on) and gate charge — the switching-loss tradeoff
The 750 mOhm Rds(on) at 2 A and 10 V is a moderate on-resistance for a 600 V device, which means conduction losses are not the primary concern in this part. The 17.2 nC gate charge at 10 V is relatively low, enabling faster switching transitions and reducing driver power dissipation. This combination makes the IPP60R750E6 a good fit for medium-frequency hard-switching designs where switching losses dominate the thermal budget, rather than high-current continuous conduction.
Package and mounting — through-hole for thermal and mechanical robustness
The TO-220-3 through-hole package (Infineon code PG-TO220-3-1) allows direct mounting to a heatsink with a single screw. The 48 W maximum power dissipation at case temperature assumes a proper heatsink.
Lifecycle and compliance — active production, no obsolescence concern
The device is ROHS3 compliant, with no lead, mercury, cadmium, or other restricted substances above threshold limits. No end-of-life notices or last-time-buy windows are in effect for this ordering code.
