In high-voltage switching applications including industrial SMPS, motor drives, lighting, and renewable energy systems, Infineon's IPD60R600P7S, built on its revolutionary 7th generation superjunction (SJ) platform, has been valued for its fast switching, excellent hard-commutation robustness, low ringing, and high efficiency. However, global supply chain uncertainties and extended lead times have made sourcing these imported components increasingly challenging, impacting production schedules and cost structures. This situation has accelerated the shift towards domestic alternatives, transforming them from a contingency plan into a strategic necessity for ensuring supply chain resilience and competitiveness.
Leveraging its expertise in power semiconductor design, VBsemi introduces the VBE16R07S, an N-channel superjunction MOSFET engineered as a high-performance, pin-to-pin replacement for the IPD60R600P7S. This device offers a balanced combination of critical electrical parameters, full package compatibility, and the reliability required for demanding applications, providing a stable, accessible, and cost-optimized solution.
Optimized Parameters for Reliable High-Voltage Performance
The VBE16R07S is tailored to match the key requirements of circuits designed for the IPD60R600P7S. With a drain-source voltage (VDS) of 600V, it is well-suited for standard offline power supplies and other high-voltage infrastructures. Its continuous drain current (ID) rating of 7A supports a broad range of medium-power applications. The on-state resistance (RDS(on)) is specified at 650mΩ (max @ VGS=10V), ensuring low conduction losses for improved system efficiency and reduced thermal stress. The device features a ±30V gate-source voltage rating, enhancing robustness against voltage spikes and ESD events, while a standard 3.5V threshold voltage (Vth) ensures easy drive compatibility with common controller ICs without circuit modifications.
Advanced SJ Multi-EPI Technology for Robust Switching
At its core, the VBE16R07S utilizes advanced Superjunction Multi-Epitaxial (SJ_Multi-EPI) technology. This design philosophy parallels the benefits of Infineon's 7th generation SJ platform, enabling fast switching performance, low gate charge, and reduced switching losses. Careful optimization of the device's internal capacitances minimizes ringing tendencies, promoting stable operation in high-frequency circuits. The robust body diode provides good hard commutation capability, enhancing reliability in inductive switching environments. Furthermore, the device is characterized by a wide operating temperature range and undergoes rigorous reliability testing, ensuring stable long-term operation in diverse conditions.
Seamless Drop-In Replacement with TO-252 Package
A primary advantage of the VBE16R07S is its seamless replaceability. The device is offered in the industry-standard TO-252 (DPAK) package, which is mechanically and pin-compatible with the IPD60R600P7S. This allows for direct, drop-in replacement on existing PCB layouts without any redesign of the circuit board, heatsinking, or assembly process. This compatibility drastically reduces the time, cost, and risk associated with component substitution, enabling engineers to qualify and integrate the part rapidly—often within days—and begin realizing supply chain benefits immediately.
Local Supply Chain Assurance and Responsive Support
Choosing VBsemi's VBE16R07S mitigates the risks associated with international logistics and allocation. Supported by VBsemi's domestic manufacturing and vertically integrated supply chain, customers benefit from significantly shorter and more predictable lead times, typically within weeks, along with cost stability. As a local provider, VBsemi couples this supply security with responsive, hands-on technical support. Engineers have direct access to detailed documentation, application notes, and a technical team ready to assist with integration, ensuring a smooth and successful transition from the imported component.
From switch-mode power supplies and LED drivers to motor control and auxiliary power modules, the VBE16R07S stands as a reliable, high-quality domestic alternative to the IPD60R600P7S. It delivers the essential performance required for high-voltage switching while providing the critical advantages of supply chain control, cost efficiency, and local support. Adopting the VBE16R07S is a strategic step toward securing your production line, optimizing costs, and enhancing product competitiveness with minimal engineering effort.
