00 — Overview

What the IMZ120R045M1 family does

The IMZ120R045M1 is a CoolSiC™ 1200V SiC Trench MOSFET designed for high-efficiency power conversion. It features a 1200V drain-source voltage, 52A DC drain current, 45mΩ on-resistance, and a 175°C maximum junction temperature. This device offers very low switching losses and a commutation robust body diode ready for synchronous rectification. Engineers typically use it in solar string inverters, industrial UPS systems, and chargers to increase power density and reduce cooling requirements. The part operates across a wide gate-source voltage range with a benchmark threshold of 4.5V.
