Product details
Overview
2SJ128-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a P-channel enhancement-mode vertical power MOSFET designed for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and motor drive applications. It features a drain-source voltage rating of −60 V, continuous drain current of −5.0 A at Tc = 25 °C, on-resistance of 0.55 Ω (max) at VGS = −10 V, and gate charge of 14 nC - enabling fast switching with low conduction loss in synchronous buck topologies.
For engineers reviewing the 2SJ128-AZ datasheet, 2SJ128-AZ pinout, 2SJ128-AZ application, or 2SJ128-AZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its negative threshold voltage (−1.0 to −2.5 V), avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 110 mJ), TO-220AB package thermal performance, and suitability for high-side switch configurations in industrial power supplies.
Technical Context
The 2SJ128-AZ operates as a high-side P-channel switch in non-isolated DC-DC converters, where its negative VGS(th) enables simple gate drive using a bootstrap or charge-pump circuit. Its vertical DMOS structure delivers low RDS(on) while maintaining robust short-circuit withstand capability (tSC = 10 µs at VDD = 30 V).
Thermal design relies on its TO-220AB package with junction-to-case thermal resistance of 2.5 °C/W, supporting operation up to Tj = 150 °C. The device meets JEDEC JESD47 reliability standards and is rated for Standard quality grade per Renesas classification - intended for industrial and consumer power equipment, not safety-critical or automotive systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | −60 V: Maximum reverse-bias drain-source voltage before breakdown; sets upper limit for input voltage in buck or inverter stages. |
| ID (continuous) | −5.0 A at Tc = 25 °C: Continuous safe operating current when case temperature is maintained at 25 °C; derates linearly above that. |
| RDS(on) (max) | 0.55 Ω at VGS = −10 V: On-state resistance directly determines conduction loss (P = I²R); critical for efficiency at 3–5 A load currents. |
| Qg | 14 nC: Total gate charge required to fully turn on; impacts switching loss and driver IC selection in high-frequency (>100 kHz) designs. |
| VGS(th) | −1.0 to −2.5 V: Threshold voltage range where channel begins conducting; defines minimum gate drive swing needed for reliable turn-on. |
| EAS | 110 mJ: Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; indicates ruggedness during inductive switching transients or fault conditions. |
Pinout & Package
2SJ128-AZ is housed in a TO-220AB package with insulated tab, featuring three terminals: Drain (pin 1), Gate (pin 2), and Source (pin 3). The metal tab is electrically connected to the Drain terminal and must be isolated from heatsink unless system grounding scheme permits direct connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | High-current output node | Connected internally to metal tab; carries full load current and requires thermal interface to heatsink; electrically active. |
| Gate | Control input | Receives negative voltage relative to Source to turn on; high impedance; sensitive to ESD; requires gate resistor for ringing suppression. |
| Source | Reference node / return path | Serves as common reference for gate drive; ties to positive rail in high-side configuration; carries same current as Drain. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Vertical DMOS structure | Enables lower RDS(on) per die area vs. planar MOSFETs, improving power density in compact converters. |
| Avalanche-rated | Guarantees safe single-pulse energy dissipation up to 110 mJ without failure - supports robustness in flyback or motor freewheeling. |
| TO-220AB insulated package | Provides electrical isolation between tab and mounting surface (VISO = 2500 VRMS>), eliminating need for insulating washers in many PCB layouts. |
| −60 V VDSS rating | Supports 48 V nominal input systems (e.g., telecom, industrial PoE) with sufficient margin against voltage spikes and ripple. |
Applications
| DC-DC Synchronous Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Step-down regulation from 24–48 V input to 3.3–12 V output in programmable logic controllers and sensor hubs. IC Role / Device Role: High-side P-channel switch complementing N-channel low-side MOSFET in synchronous rectification stage. Use Value: Low RDS(on) reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. Schottky diode replacement; gate charge enables <500 ns turn-off for >200 kHz operation. | Use Scenario: Bidirectional control of 12–24 V brushed motors in automated valves and HVAC actuators. IC Role / Device Role: Upper-leg switch in H-bridge configuration, paired with complementary N-channel devices for direction reversal. Use Value: Avalanche ruggedness prevents failure during motor inductive kickback; −2.5 V max VGS(th) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level gate drivers. |
| Industrial Power Supply Auxiliary Rail | LED Constant-Current Driver |
Use Scenario: Generating isolated 5 V/12 V auxiliary bias rails from main 48 V bus in DIN-rail mounted PSUs. IC Role / Device Role: Primary-side high-side switch in self-oscillating or PWM-controlled flyback converter. Use Value: 110 mJ EAS withstands reflected flyback spikes without snubber; TO-220AB thermal resistance supports 5 W continuous dissipation. | Use Scenario: Dimmable constant-current LED driver for architectural lighting with analog/PWM dimming interface. IC Role / Device Role: Series pass element modulated via gate voltage to regulate LED string current. Use Value: Tight VGS(th) distribution (−1.0 to −2.5 V) ensures predictable turn-on across temperature; low Qg minimizes dimming response delay. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IXTP10P06T | RDS(on) = 0.35 Ω (lower), VDSS = −60 V, Qg = 22 nC (higher), TO-220 package (non-insulated tab) | Higher conduction efficiency but requires insulating hardware; less suitable for compact layouts needing tab isolation. | Prefer when minimizing I²R loss dominates over layout simplicity and isolation requirements. |
| IRF9540NPBF | RDS(on) = 0.20 Ω (lower), VDSS = −100 V, Qg = 54 nC (much higher), TO-220AB (insulated tab) | Over-specified voltage rating increases cost and gate drive burden; slower switching limits high-frequency use. | Choose only if system demands >60 V blocking or legacy design reuse mandates identical footprint and isolation. |
Compared with IXTP10P06T and IRF9540NPBF, the 2SJ128-AZ offers balanced trade-offs: moderate RDS(on) and gate charge within an insulated TO-220AB package - making it optimal for space-constrained, medium-power industrial converters where layout simplicity and safety isolation are prioritized over marginal conduction loss reduction.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the 2SJ128-AZ?
The 2SJ128-AZ has a maximum junction temperature (Tj) rating of 150 °C. This value defines the upper thermal limit for safe operation under continuous conduction. Derating curves in the official Renesas datasheet specify allowable current reduction above Tc = 25 °C, and proper heatsinking is required to maintain Tj ≤ 150 °C in real-world applications. Exceeding this limit risks parametric shift or permanent failure of the 2SJ128-AZ.
Is the 2SJ128-AZ RoHS compliant?
Yes, the 2SJ128-AZ is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU, as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' material declarations and packaging markings. Lead-free plating and halogen-free molding compound meet applicable restrictions on hazardous substances. Compliance documentation is available through Renesas' official environmental portal and applies to all units shipped after the transition date specified in their product change notices for the 2SJ128-AZ.
Does the 2SJ128-AZ have built-in ESD protection?
The 2SJ128-AZ does not integrate dedicated on-die ESD protection circuitry. It meets the human-body model (HBM) rating of ±2 kV per JESD22-A114, which is typical for discrete power MOSFETs. System-level ESD protection - such as series gate resistors, TVS diodes on gate-source, and proper PCB layout - remains the designer's responsibility. Handling precautions per ANSI/ESD S20.20 are required to prevent damage during assembly of the 2SJ128-AZ.
Can the 2SJ128-AZ be used in automotive applications?
No, the 2SJ128-AZ is classified as a Standard quality grade device per Renesas' internal grading system and is not qualified for automotive use. It lacks AEC-Q101 stress testing, extended temperature range validation (−40 to +125 °C), and zero-defect manufacturing controls required for automotive ECUs or body electronics. For automotive-grade alternatives, consult Renesas' AEC-Q101-qualified P-channel MOSFET portfolio instead of the 2SJ128-AZ.
What is the gate-to-source leakage current specification for the 2SJ128-AZ?
The gate-to-source leakage current (IGSS) for the 2SJ128-AZ is specified as ±100 nA maximum at VGS = ±20 V and Tj = 25 °C. This ultra-low leakage reflects the high-quality gate oxide integrity and ensures minimal standby power loss in always-on control circuits. At elevated temperatures (e.g., Tj = 125 °C), leakage may increase to ~1 µA but remains well within safe operational margins for the 2SJ128-AZ.
