Product details
Overview
2SK1620L-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon N-channel power MOSFET designed for high-speed switching in DC-DC converters and motor drivers, featuring 150 V VDSS, 10 A continuous drain current (ID), 0.12 Ω typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 7.0 S typical |yfs| - enabling efficient low-loss power control in compact industrial and consumer power stages.
For engineers reviewing the 2SK1620L-E datasheet, 2SK1620L-E pinout, 2SK1620L-E application, or 2SK1620L-E equivalent, this device is selected for its low drive current requirement, absence of secondary breakdown, and suitability in synchronous rectification, half-bridge motor drive, and switching regulator output stages where thermal robustness and fast turn-on/turn-off are critical.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a planar vertical DMOS structure optimized for ruggedness and stable operation under repetitive avalanche stress. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(off)) ranges from 2.0 to 4.0 V, ensuring reliable enhancement-mode turn-on with standard logic-level gate drivers.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode with 1.2 V forward voltage (VDF) at 10 A and 220 ns reverse recovery time (trr), supporting freewheeling and bidirectional current handling in bridge configurations without external diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 150 V - supports input rails up to 120 V DC in isolated/non-isolated SMPS topologies |
| ID (continuous) | 10 A at TC = 25°C - delivers sustained output current in motor H-bridge legs or buck converter switches |
| RDS(on) | 0.12 Ω typ. at VGS = 10 V - limits conduction loss to ≤1.2 W at 10 A, easing thermal design |
| td(on)/tr/td(off)/tf | 20/50/70/40 ns - enables >500 kHz switching in hard-switched converters with minimal overlap loss |
| Ciss/Coss/Crss | 1200/550/85 pF - low Miller capacitance reduces gate drive energy and improves EMI behavior |
| VGS(off) | 2.0–4.0 V - ensures clean turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller GPIOs without level-shifting |
| Pch | 50 W at TC = 25°C - allows high-power pulse operation with proper heatsinking in intermittent duty cycles |
Pinout & Package
2SK1620L-E uses the LDPAK(L) surface-mount package (Renesas code PRSS0004AE-A), a 4-pin thermally enhanced leadless package with dual drain terminals for reduced source inductance and improved current sharing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal accepting 0–10 V logic-level signals; low Ciss enables fast charging with <1 µC total gate charge |
| 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; electrically tied to pin 4; connects to bus rail or transformer secondary |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return and reference node for gate drive; low-inductance layout critical for stability in high-dI/dt switching |
| 4 (D) | Drain | Second drain connection - paralleled internally with pin 2 to halve effective package inductance and improve thermal spreading |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No secondary breakdown | Enables safe operation under SOA-limited linear-mode conditions (e.g., hot-swap, inrush limiting) without derating curves |
| Low drive current requirement | Typical IGSS ≤ ±10 µA at ±16 V - minimizes gate driver quiescent load and simplifies bias network design |
| High-speed switching | Combined td(on) + tr + td(off) + tf < 180 ns - supports high-frequency PWM with tight dead-time control |
| Integrated body diode | VDF = 1.2 V @ 10 A and trr = 220 ns - provides predictable freewheeling path in half-bridge and synchronous rectifier applications |
| Thermally robust package | θch–c = 2.5°C/W - enables 50 W dissipation with modest heatsinking, reducing system footprint vs. TO-220 alternatives |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter Output Switch | Brushed DC Motor Half-Bridge Leg |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency 12–48 V input to 3.3–24 V output step-down conversion in industrial PLC I/O modules.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Series-pass current switch modulated at 1–20 kHz to regulate LED string current. Use Value: Stable VGS(off) ensures full cutoff at 0 V gate drive; low IDSS (<250 µA) prevents leakage-induced glow at standby. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ROHM R6004KNX | 60 V VDSS, 4 A ID, 4.2 mΩ RDS(on) - lower voltage rating and higher current density but incompatible for 120 V bus use | Restricted to ≤48 V systems; unsuitable for 2SK1620L-E's 150 V primary-side switching roles | Select only when redesigning for lower-voltage, higher-efficiency architectures with tighter space constraints |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C09NT1G | 30 V VDSS, 90 A ID, 1.4 mΩ RDS(on) - ultra-low RDS(on) but insufficient breakdown margin for 2SK1620L-E's target applications | Applicable only in low-voltage battery-powered motor drives (≤24 V); cannot replace in DC-DC converters with >60 V input | Consider only for new designs requiring sub-mΩ on-resistance below 30 V; not a drop-in substitute |
Compared with R6004KNX and NTMFS4C09NT1G, the 2SK1620L-E uniquely balances 150 V capability, 10 A current, and thermally efficient LDPAK(L) packaging - making it irreplaceable in mid-voltage industrial switching where both voltage headroom and package thermal performance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the 2SK1620L-E?
The 2SK1620L-E has a continuous drain current (ID) rating of 10 A at case temperature TC = 25°C. This value decreases with rising case temperature per the derating curve - at 100°C, the usable ID drops to approximately 5.5 A. The 2SK1620L-E must be mounted on a PCB with adequate copper area or heatsink to maintain TC within limits during sustained operation.
Does the 2SK1620L-E have a built-in body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, the 2SK1620L-E integrates a monolithic body diode with a forward voltage (VDF) of 1.2 V at 10 A and reverse recovery time (trr) of 220 ns under specified test conditions (IF = 10 A, diF/dt = 50 A/µs, VGS = 0). This diode is rated for 10 A continuous reverse drain current (IDR) and supports freewheeling in bridge circuits without external components - a verified feature confirmed in the official Renesas datasheet Rev.2.00.
Can the 2SK1620L-E be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
No - the 2SK1620L-E has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(off)) range of 2.0–4.0 V, and its RDS(on) is specified at VGS = 10 V. Driving it with only 3.3 V results in incomplete turn-on and excessive conduction loss. A dedicated gate driver (e.g., TC4427 or similar) or level-shifter is required to deliver ≥10 V to the 2SK1620L-E gate for optimal performance and thermal safety.
What is the thermal resistance from channel to case (θch–c) for the 2SK1620L-E?
The 2SK1620L-E has a channel-to-case thermal resistance (θch–c) of 2.5°C/W, measured under standard mounting conditions on a 10 cm² 2-oz copper pad. This value enables 50 W channel dissipation at TC = 25°C and is critical for calculating junction temperature rise in real-world layouts - a parameter explicitly published in the Renesas datasheet page 5 transient thermal impedance chart.
Is the 2SK1620L-E suitable for automotive applications?
The 2SK1620L-E is classified as a "Standard" quality grade device per Renesas' internal grading system, intended for office equipment, industrial robots, and communications gear - not for automotive, medical life-support, or aerospace use. It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, and Renesas explicitly prohibits its use in transportation equipment without prior written consent, as stated in the datasheet notice section 7.
