IXFR180N10 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The IXFR180N10 is an N-Channel MOSFET rated for 100V drain-to-source voltage with 165A continuous drain current at 25°C. This device is packaged in the ISOPLUS247™ form factor and is designed for high-current switching applications requiring through-hole mounting. The part is classified as "Not For New Designs," indicating it has reached end-of-life status. Identification of equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to support existing designs, maintenance requirements, and production continuity for systems currently utilizing this component.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IXFR180N10 is determined by electrical and mechanical compatibility across the following critical parameters:

Voltage Rating Compatibility: The substitute part must maintain the same 100V drain-to-source voltage (Vdss) rating to ensure safe operation within the original circuit design envelope.

Package Compatibility: Both the main part and substitute must use through-hole mounting in the TO-247-3 package form factor to ensure mechanical fit and thermal interface compatibility with existing PCB layouts and heatsink assemblies.

Gate Drive Voltage: The substitute must operate with the same 10V drive voltage specification to maintain compatibility with existing gate driver circuits.

Gate Threshold Voltage: The Vgs(th) specification must remain within the same range to ensure consistent switching behavior and gate drive margin.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts must maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status to satisfy manufacturing and environmental requirements.

The HUF75652G3 from onsemi meets these substitution criteria. While the continuous drain current rating is lower (75A versus 165A), this part shares identical voltage ratings, package form factor, gate drive specifications, and regulatory compliance status. The lower current rating reflects a design trade-off and must be evaluated against the specific application's current requirements.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Product Status Consideration: The IXFR180N10 carries a "Not For New Designs" designation, indicating end-of-life status. The HUF75652G3 is classified as "Active," making it the appropriate choice for design continuity and long-term supply assurance.

Regulatory Compliance: Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, satisfying environmental and regulatory requirements for manufacturing and distribution.

Thermal Performance: The HUF75652G3 offers superior maximum power dissipation (515W versus 400W) and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 175°C versus -55°C to 150°C), providing additional thermal margin in applications requiring elevated junction temperatures.

Current Rating Differential: The primary distinction between these parts is the continuous drain current specification. The IXFR180N10 is rated for 165A while the HUF75652G3 is rated for 75A. Selection between these parts must be based on the actual current requirements of the application. Applications requiring continuous drain currents exceeding 75A cannot use the HUF75652G3 as a direct substitute.

Electrical Characteristics: Both parts share identical voltage ratings (100V Vdss), gate drive voltage (10V), gate threshold voltage (4V), and maximum gate voltage (±20V). On-resistance specifications are equivalent at their respective rated currents. These matching characteristics ensure compatible switching behavior and gate driver circuit operation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HUF75652G3 be used as a direct replacement for the IXFR180N10 in all applications?

A: The HUF75652G3 is electrically and mechanically compatible with the IXFR180N10 for voltage rating, package form factor, and gate drive specifications. However, the continuous drain current rating is lower (75A versus 165A). Applications requiring continuous drain currents above 75A cannot use this substitute. Circuit current requirements must be evaluated before substitution.

Q: Are there any package compatibility issues between these parts?

A: Both the IXFR180N10 and HUF75652G3 use the TO-247-3 through-hole package form factor. They are mechanically compatible with existing PCB layouts and heatsink assemblies designed for this package type.

Q: Do these parts require different gate driver circuits?

A: No. Both parts operate with identical gate drive voltage specifications (10V) and gate threshold voltage (4V @ 8mA for IXFR180N10; 4V @ 250µA for HUF75652G3). Existing gate driver circuits designed for the IXFR180N10 are compatible with the HUF75652G3.

Q: What is the significance of the "Not For New Designs" status on the IXFR180N10?

A: This designation indicates the part has reached end-of-life status and is no longer recommended for new circuit designs. Existing inventory may be available, but long-term supply cannot be assured. The HUF75652G3, classified as "Active," is the appropriate choice for designs requiring long-term component availability.

Q: How do the thermal characteristics compare between these parts?

A: The HUF75652G3 offers higher maximum power dissipation (515W versus 400W) and an extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 175°C versus -55°C to 150°C). These characteristics provide additional thermal margin in high-temperature applications.

Q: Are both parts compliant with current environmental regulations?

A: Yes. Both the IXFR180N10 and HUF75652G3 are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, satisfying current environmental and regulatory requirements for manufacturing and distribution.

Q: What is the primary limiting factor when considering the HUF75652G3 as a substitute?

A: The continuous drain current rating is the primary limiting factor. The HUF75652G3 is rated for 75A continuous drain current at 25°C, compared to 165A for the IXFR180N10. Applications with continuous drain current requirements exceeding 75A must retain the original part or identify alternative high-current rated devices.
