# BCW120N160W1

**Bestirpower** · Silicon Carbide Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) · TO-247-3L

BCW120N160W1 from Bestirpower, in a TO-247-3L. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

## Pinout

| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | G | input | Gate. Controls the MOSFET channel. Recommended drive VGS = -5 V / +18 V; absolute maximum VGS = -8 V / +22 V. Threshold voltage VGS(th) = 2.0-4.0 V (typ 3.4 V) at ID=5 mA, TC=25°C. Internal gate resistance RG(int) = 10 Ω typ. |
| 2 | D | passive | Drain. High-voltage power terminal, connected internally to the exposed metal tab/heatsink. VDSS = 1200 V max, ID = 22 A at TC=25°C (16 A at TC=100°C), IDM (pulsed) = 58 A. Body diode: VSD ~3.7 V typ at 5 A, TJ=25°C. |
| 3 | S | passive | Source. Return terminal for drain current and gate-drive reference. Static RDS(on) = 160 mΩ typ (VGS=15 V) / 130 mΩ typ (VGS=18 V) at ID=10 A, TC=25°C. |
