Dear Sir,

As the IKW30N65ES5 D/S spec shows, the collector current at Tc 125 degrees is 30A, right?

hi @KUOWENYUNG,

Thanks for posting your query in the Infineon community.

yes, you are allowed to draw 30A collector current at a case temperature of 125DegC until the junction temperature of the device has not reached to maximum rated value of Tvj 175 DegC. with your designed Power loss on the device.

 

Thanks,

Malleswararao
