Process Technology
Planar — the gate sits flat on the die surface. Lower channel density than trench designs, but a wider safe operating area, stronger avalanche withstand and simpler gate drive. Preferred for high-voltage and rugged industrial loads where robustness outranks on-resistance.
Applications
Solar inverters, three-phase motor drives, UPS, and railway auxiliary converters.
Selection Notes
- Rds(on) rises with junction temperature. Size the heatsink against the hot value given in the datasheet, not the 25 °C number in the table above.
- If the gate is driven below 10 V, check the 4.5 V Rds(on) line — parts without that rating are not characterised for logic-level drive.
- For high-frequency stages compare Qg and Ciss against the Rds(on) gain. A part one bin lower in Rds(on) often costs more switching loss than it saves in conduction.
- The body diode recovery of low-Rds(on) parts can be severe in bridge topologies. Verify dv/dt and dead time against the datasheet before dropping it into a half bridge.
Common Questions
Is the CS6N120A8R-G an N-channel or P-channel device?
It is N-channel. The drain-source rating is 1200 V.
Can the CS6N120A8R-G be driven at 4.5 V?
No 4.5 V on-resistance figure is published for this part. It is characterised at 10 V gate drive, so use a driver that reaches 10 V.
What is the gate threshold voltage of the CS6N120A8R-G?
VGS(th) is specified between 3 and 5 V. Below the lower figure the part is off; above the upper figure it is fully on at the rated current.
How much gate charge does the CS6N120A8R-G need?
Qg is 45 nC. Size the driver against that figure at your switching frequency, and add the gate loop loss to the total dissipation budget.
What package does the CS6N120A8R-G come in?
TO-220AB. Check the datasheet mechanical drawing for lead spacing and thermal pad dimensions before laying out the footprint.
