Product details
Overview
AON6230 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 40V N-channel trench MOSFET optimized for high-frequency switching in power conversion stages. It delivers 85A continuous drain current at VGS=10V, <1.44mΩ RDS(ON), and ultra-low gate charge (Qg=81–114nC), enabling high-efficiency synchronous rectification in telecom and industrial DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the AON6230 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its DFN5x6 package thermal performance (RθJC=1.2°C/W), 100% UIS-tested ruggedness, and validated operation in boost converter topologies with fast switching (tr=6.5ns, tf=11.5ns).
Technical Context
The AON6230 employs trench-gate silicon technology to simultaneously minimize conduction loss (via low RDS(ON)) and switching loss (via low Ciss=6050pF, Coss=1640pF, and Qg as low as 35nC at 4.5V). Its gate threshold voltage (1.2–2.3V) supports both 4.5V and 10V drive logic levels.
This MOSFET is characterized for operation across –55°C to +150°C junction temperature, with 100% avalanche energy testing (EAS=45.5mJ) and 100% gate resistance screening (Rg=0.5–1.7Ω). The device's body diode exhibits low reverse recovery charge (Qrr=98nC) and fast trr=28ns, critical for synchronous rectifier reliability.
Key Specifications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP040N04L | RDS(ON)=0.45mΩ @ 10V (lower), Qg=120nC (higher), TO-252 package | Higher thermal mass but larger footprint; less suitable for ultra-thin power modules | Prefer when board-level thermal mass is available and layout area is not constrained. |
| Vishay SiR626DP | RDS(ON)=1.55mΩ @ 10V (slightly higher), Qg=72nC (lower), PowerPAK® 5x6 | Lower gate charge improves driver efficiency but slightly higher conduction loss increases full-load heating | Prefer when gate drive power budget is limited and peak current is ≤75A. |
Compared with IPP040N04L and SiR626DP, the AON6230 offers the best balance of ultra-low RDS(ON), moderate Qg, and industry-leading thermal resistance in a compact DFN5x6 - making it optimal for high-density, high-efficiency 40V synchronous rectifiers where board space and thermal headroom are tightly constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the AON6230 at 100°C case temperature?
The AON6230 supports 66A continuous drain current at TC=100°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derated value reflects thermal limits of the DFN5x6 package under real-world PCB thermal conditions and ensures safe operation without exceeding the 150°C maximum junction temperature. Designers must verify actual case temperature via thermal simulation or measurement when using the AON6230 in high-power applications.
Does the AON6230 have integrated ESD protection on the gate terminal?
The AON6230 does not include integrated gate ESD protection diodes. Its gate-source voltage rating is ±20V, and gate leakage (IGSS) is specified at ±100nA - confirming standard MOSFET gate oxide structure. External gate protection (e.g., 12V Zener clamp) is recommended in systems exposed to handling or system-level ESD events per IEC 61000-4-2.
Can the AON6230 be used in a synchronous buck converter with 4.5V gate drive?
Yes, the AON6230 is fully specified for 4.5V gate drive: RDS(ON) is guaranteed <2.1mΩ at VGS=4.5V, and Qg(4.5V) is 35–50nC. Its gate threshold voltage range (1.2–2.3V) ensures strong enhancement-mode turn-on with standard 3.3V or 5V logic-level drivers, making the AON6230 suitable for low-voltage control architectures without level-shifting circuitry.
What is the significance of the "100% Rg Tested" specification for the AON6230?
The "100% Rg Tested" specification means every AON6230 unit undergoes production test for gate resistance (Rg = 0.5–1.7Ω), ensuring consistent switching behavior and predictable gate drive requirements. This eliminates batch-to-batch variation in Miller effect and switching speed, critical for timing-critical topologies like multiphase VRMs where gate drive timing skew must be minimized across parallel phases.
Is the AON6230 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the AON6230 is RoHS-compliant and halogen-free per AOS' standard product specifications and material declarations. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-609 Category 1 for moisture sensitivity (MSL3), and its DFN5x6 package uses lead-free matte tin plating. Full compliance documentation, including IPC-1752A material declarations, is available through AOS' quality portal upon request.
