Product details
Overview
2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a P-channel vertical MOSFET designed for high-speed switching in low-voltage DC/DC converters and actuator drivers. It features RDS(on) = 0.50 Ω max at VGS = –10 V, ID = –1.0 A; VDSS = –60 V; ID(DC) = ±2.0 A; tf = 75 ns; and direct 5-V IC drivability - enabling compact, efficient power control in industrial and consumer power stages.
For engineers reviewing the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ datasheet, 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ pinout, 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ application, or 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ equivalent, key selection criteria include verified P-channel switching performance at –4 V gate drive, integrated source-drain diode recovery (trr = 82 ns), thermal derating on ceramic substrate, and compliance with Renesas Standard-grade reliability for non-safety-critical embedded systems.
Technical Context
This device employs a vertical DMOS structure optimized for fast turn-off (td(off) = 115 ns) and low conduction loss, with gate charge QG = 11.6 nC and QGD = 3.8 nC supporting efficient PWM operation up to several hundred kHz. Its internal gate protection diode and specified VGSS = –20/+10 V rating ensure robustness against ESD during handling and board-level transients.
The 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ operates with a threshold voltage VGS(off) range of –1.0 to –2.0 V and exhibits strong transfer characteristics (|yfs| = 1.0 S typ), enabling predictable current control across ambient temperatures from –25 °C to +150 °C. Its safe operating area (SOA) is defined for single-pulse conditions up to 100 ms, with derating applied beyond TA = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | –60 V - supports input rails up to 48-V DC bus systems with margin |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = –10 V | 0.50 Ω max - enables <1 W conduction loss at 2 A DC load |
| ID(DC) | ±2.0 A - suitable for medium-power switching nodes in point-of-load regulators |
| tf / td(off) | 75 ns / 115 ns - allows >200 kHz switching with controlled dv/dt and reduced EMI |
| QGD | 3.8 nC - limits Miller-induced shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations |

Applications
| DC/DC Converter High-Side Switch | Actuator Driver (Valve/Solenoid) |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Step-down buck converter operating from 24–48 V input to 3.3–12 V output in industrial PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch controlling power delivery to regulated output stage; synchronized with low-side N-MOSFET or diode. Use Value: Low RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss at 1–2 A load; fast fall time reduces switching loss and improves efficiency above 100 kHz. |
Use Scenario: On/off control of 24 V solenoid valves in HVAC actuators and factory automation subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power switch interfacing microcontroller GPIO directly via 5 V logic; handles inductive kickback with integrated body diode. Use Value: Verified trr = 82 ns prevents voltage overshoot during turn-off; VDSS = –60 V provides margin against L·di/dt spikes up to 36 V. |
| LED Driver (Constant-Current Sink) | Power OR-ing Circuit |
Use Scenario: Constant-current dimming driver for high-brightness LED strings in signage and machine vision lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Current-regulating pass element in linear or PWM-modulated topology; dissipates heat during analog dimming phase. Use Value: Stable RDS(on) vs. temperature ensures consistent current regulation; Tch = 150 °C rating supports sealed fixture thermal environments. |
Use Scenario: Redundant 12 V power supply selection in network equipment with dual-input backplane. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-polarity blocking switch placed between supply rail and load; conducts only when VIN > VOUT + |VGS(th)|. Use Value: Low VGS(th) (–1.4 V typ) ensures reliable turn-on with minimal voltage drop; integrated diode prevents backfeed during supply switchover. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF9540NPbF | RDS(on) = 0.20 Ω @ –10 V (lower), but VDSS = –100 V (higher); TO-220 package; no specified trr or QGD in datasheet | Better for higher-voltage (>60 V) systems; less optimized for 5-V drive due to higher VGS(th) (–2 to –4 V) | Select if system requires >–60 V blocking or lower RDS(on), and gate drive ≥ –10 V is available |
| Si2305DS | SOT-23 package; RDS(on) = 0.055 Ω @ –4.5 V; ID(DC) = –4.1 A; QG = 6.5 nC - smaller footprint, lower capacitance, but lower voltage rating (–30 V) | Only suitable for ≤24 V systems; unsuitable for 48 V bus or inductive loads exceeding 30 V flyback | Select for space-constrained, low-voltage (<24 V) applications where TO-220 mechanical robustness is not required |
Compared with IRF9540NPbF and Si2305DS, the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ uniquely balances 5-V drivability, –60 V rating, and documented fast switching (tf, td(off), trr) in a thermally capable TO-220 package - making it optimal for mid-power industrial DC/DC and actuator control where both voltage margin and gate drive simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ?
The 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ has a rated DC drain current (ID(DC)) of ±2.0 A at TA = 25 °C with a 16 cm² ceramic substrate. This rating assumes proper heatsinking; actual usable current decreases with rising ambient temperature per the published derating curve - for example, to ~1.2 A at 75 °C ambient. The 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ must not be operated beyond its channel temperature limit of 150 °C.
Can the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ be driven directly from a 5-V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ is explicitly characterized for direct 5-V IC drive, with guaranteed RDS(on) ≤ 0.95 Ω at VGS = –4 V and ID = –1.0 A. Its VGS(off) range (–1.0 to –2.0 V) ensures full enhancement well within typical 5-V logic swing, eliminating need for external level shifters or gate drivers in most medium-speed switching applications.
Does the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ include an integrated body diode, and what are its recovery specs?
Yes, the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ integrates a source-drain body diode rated for 2.0 A forward current. Its reverse recovery time (trr) is 82 ns and reverse recovery charge (Qrr) is 94 nC under IF = 2.0 A and di/dt = 50 A/µs - values confirmed in the official Renesas datasheet. These parameters enable reliable operation in flyback, buck-boost, and synchronous rectifier topologies without external diode supplementation.
What is the thermal resistance and recommended mounting for the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ?
The 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ is specified with PT = 2.0 W on a 16 cm² × 0.7 mm ceramic substrate. While no explicit rθJA is given, transient thermal data shows rθ(j-a) ≈ 100 °C/W for 10-ms pulses. For continuous operation, mount the TO-220 tab directly to a heatsink using thermal grease and insulated shoulder washer; avoid soldering leads before mounting to prevent mechanical stress on the die bond.
Is the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ compliant with RoHS and suitable for industrial use?
Yes - the 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ is RoHS-compliant (per Renesas environmental documentation) and classified as "Standard" grade, meaning it is qualified for industrial robots, machine tools, office equipment, and communications gear. It is not rated for automotive, medical life-support, or aerospace use unless separately certified by Renesas - always verify latest compliance status via Renesas' official product page for 2SJ356(0)-T2-AZ before final design-in.
