Product details
Overview
2SJ215-E from Renesas Electronics (formerly Hitachi) is a silicon P-channel MOSFET designed for high-speed power switching in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and solenoid control circuits. It features –60 V VDSS, –35 A continuous drain current, 0.045 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = –10 V, and 4 V gate drive compatibility with standard 5 V logic.
For engineers reviewing the 2SJ215-E datasheet, 2SJ215-E pinout, 2SJ215-E application, or 2SJ215-E equivalent, key selection considerations include its low on-resistance at low gate voltage, fast switching times (td(on) = 20 ns), body diode recovery performance (trr = 250 ns), and TO-3P thermal capability for industrial power stages.
Technical Context
This P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET operates with negative gate-to-source voltage control and integrates a built-in body diode rated for –35 A reverse current and –1.3 V forward drop. Its channel temperature rating of 150°C and 125 W channel dissipation at TC = 25°C support high-duty-cycle operation in thermally constrained environments.
The device uses planar vertical DMOS structure with optimized charge distribution to achieve low input capacitance (Ciss = 2400 pF) and moderate reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 340 pF), enabling stable gate drive under high dv/dt conditions typical in hard-switched topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | –60 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche conduction |
| ID (continuous) | –35 A - continuous drain current at TC = 25°C with heatsink |
| RDS(on) | 0.045 Ω - on-state resistance at VGS = –10 V, enabling <1.5 W conduction loss at 18 A |
| VGS(off) | –1.0 to –2.0 V - gate threshold range ensuring reliable turn-on with 4–5 V logic drive |
| tr/tf | 175/320 ns - rise/fall times defining minimum switching period in PWM applications |
| trr | 250 ns - body diode reverse recovery time critical for synchronous rectifier or freewheeling use |
| Pch | 125 W - maximum channel power dissipation at case temperature 25°C |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-3P (plastic insulated case with metal flange for heatsinking). Flange is electrically connected to Drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control electrode; accepts –4 V to –20 V relative to source to modulate channel conductivity |
| 2 (D) | Drain (Flange) | Main high-side power output node; flange provides mechanical mounting and thermal path to heatsink |
| 3 (S) | Source | Reference node for gate drive; connects to positive rail in high-side switch configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 4 V gate drive compatibility | Operates fully enhanced with VGS = –4 V, eliminating need for dedicated negative gate drivers in 5 V systems |
| Low RDS(on) at low VGS | 0.07 Ω at VGS = –4 V enables efficient operation without gate boosting circuitry |
| Fast switching speed | td(on)/td(off) = 20/460 ns supports >200 kHz PWM in DC-DC converters |
| Integrated body diode | Rated for –35 A continuous reverse current and 250 ns trr, suitable for freewheeling paths |
| TO-3P thermal package | θch–c = 1.0°C/W allows 125 W dissipation with modest heatsinking at TC = 25°C |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF9540NPBF | VDSS = –100 V, RDS(on) = 0.2 Ω @ VGS = –10 V, slower switching (td(off) = 1.1 µs) | Better voltage margin but higher conduction loss; less suitable for high-frequency DC-DC | Choose when higher blocking voltage is required and switching frequency <50 kHz |
| STP12PF06 | VDSS = –60 V, RDS(on) = 0.12 Ω @ VGS = –10 V, TO-220 package, no flange thermal path | Same voltage rating but lower current capability (12 A) and inferior thermal performance | Acceptable for lower-power (<10 A), space-constrained designs where TO-3P mounting is impractical |
Compared with IRF9540NPBF and STP12PF06, the 2SJ215-E delivers superior combination of low RDS(on), fast switching, and robust TO-3P thermal design-making it optimal for high-current, high-efficiency, medium-frequency power switching where gate drive simplicity and thermal reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the 2SJ215-E?
The 2SJ215-E is rated for –35 A continuous drain current at case temperature TC = 25°C with adequate heatsinking. Derating applies above 25°C per the published power vs. temperature curve, reaching zero allowable current at 150°C channel temperature. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area or external heatsink to maintain TC ≤ 25°C under full load.
Can the 2SJ215-E be driven directly from a 5 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes, the 2SJ215-E can be driven directly from a 5 V microcontroller GPIO when used in high-side configuration. Its VGS(off) range of –1.0 to –2.0 V and guaranteed RDS(on) of 0.07 Ω at VGS = –4 V allow full enhancement with simple level translation-no charge pump or negative supply needed. Ensure gate resistor limits peak current during switching.
Does the 2SJ215-E include an integrated body diode, and what are its specifications?
Yes, the 2SJ215-E includes a monolithic body diode between source and drain. It is rated for –35 A continuous reverse current, –1.3 V forward voltage at –35 A, and 250 ns reverse recovery time (trr) under specified test conditions (di/dt = 50 A/µs, VGS = 0). This diode supports freewheeling and synchronous rectification roles without external components.
What is the thermal resistance from channel to case (θch–c) for the 2SJ215-E?
According to the datasheet, the 2SJ215-E has a channel-to-case thermal resistance (θch–c) of 1.0°C/W at TC = 25°C. This value is measured with the flange mounted to a large heatsink and defines the upper limit of steady-state power dissipation-125 W at TC = 25°C. Transient thermal impedance curves are provided for pulsed operation analysis.
Is the 2SJ215-E suitable for use in automotive applications?
The 2SJ215-E was not qualified to AEC-Q101 or automotive-grade reliability standards. While its –60 V VDSS, 150°C Tch, and robust construction make it technically capable in some 12 V/24 V automotive subsystems, Renesas does not authorize its use in safety-critical or mission-critical automotive functions without additional qualification.
