Product details
Overview
AON6796 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 30V, 70A N-channel Trench Power αMOS MOSFET in DFN5x6 package, featuring <3.9mΩ RDS(ON) at VGS=10V, 100% UIS-tested ruggedness, and integrated Schottky body diode for soft recovery. It serves as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or primary-side switch in high-current DC/DC converters for computing and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the AON6796 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include its 3.1°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 23nC total gate charge at 10V, 13ns body-diode reverse recovery time, and validated performance in isolated 48V-to-12V telecom DC/DC stages under continuous 70A conduction.
Technical Context
The AON6796 employs Trench Power αMOS technology to achieve low RDS(ON) and low gate charge simultaneously, enabling high-frequency switching with reduced conduction and switching losses. Its integrated Schottky body diode delivers soft-recovery behavior (Qrr = 22nC, trr = 13ns), minimizing voltage overshoot and EMI in hard-switched topologies.
Rated for 30V VDS and 70A ID (TC = 25°C), the device supports pulsed drain currents up to 120A and avalanche energy of 23mJ (L = 0.05mH). Thermal design leverages a 4°C/W RθJC, allowing direct heatsink mounting for high-power density applications without PCB copper area dependency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30V - Maximum blocking voltage for 48V-input DC/DC converter primary-side switches and 12V-output synchronous rectifiers. |
| ID (VGS=10V) | 70A - Continuous current capability at TC=25°C, supporting high-current POL converters without forced air cooling. |
| RDS(ON) (VGS=10V) | <3.9mΩ - Enables ≤0.2W conduction loss at 70A, critical for >95% efficiency in 12V/60A server VRMs. |
| Qg(10V) | 23nC - Low gate drive energy reduces driver IC power consumption and enables 1MHz+ operation in compact converters. |
| trr / Qrr | 13ns / 22nC - Soft-recovery body diode minimizes turn-off voltage spike and snubber losses in flyback and LLC resonant converters. |
| RθJC | 4°C/W - Enables direct thermal interface to heatsink, supporting 13W steady-state dissipation at ΔT=52°C (TJ=150°C). |
Pinout & Package
Package: DFN5x6 (5.0mm × 6.0mm, 1.0mm height), exposed drain pad on bottom side for optimal thermal transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (Drain Pad) | Drain (D) | Entire bottom copper pad connects to drain; must be soldered to large PCB thermal plane or external heatsink for RθJC = 4°C/W performance. |
| 1 (Top-side marking corner) | Gate (G) | Single top-side gate pad; requires low-inductance routing to minimize switching oscillation and gate ringing. |
| 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (Top-side edge) | Source (S) | Multiple top-side source pads provide low-inductance return path for high di/dt synchronous rectification current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

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 IRF6642 | 30V, 60A, RDS(ON) = 4.2mΩ @10V; no integrated Schottky diode; PQFN 5x6 package. | Lacks soft-recovery body diode - requires external diode for flyback/clamp circuits; higher Qrr increases EMI risk. | Prefer AON6796 where body-diode soft recovery is required; IRF6642 suits gate-driven-only half-bridges without freewheeling. |
| Vishay SiR626DP | 30V, 70A, RDS(ON) = 3.6mΩ @10V; 25nC Qg; no UIS rating published; PowerPAK® SO-8 package. | SO-8 footprint limits thermal performance (RθJC ≈ 6.5°C/W); unsuitable for >40A continuous without aggressive heatsinking. | Choose AON6796 for DFN5x6 thermal advantage and UIS validation; SiR626DP fits legacy SO-8 layouts but sacrifices ruggedness. |
Compared with IRF6642 and SiR626DP, the AON6796 uniquely combines 3.9mΩ RDS(ON), 13ns soft-recovery trr, and 100% UIS testing in a thermally optimized DFN5x6 package-making it the only option among the three qualified for unclamped inductive switching in high-reliability telecom power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for AON6796 at 100°C case temperature?
The AON6796 supports 31A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the DFN5x6 package and ensures safe operation within the 150°C maximum junction temperature. Designers must maintain TC ≤ 100°C via heatsinking or airflow to sustain this current level in production systems using the AON6796.
Does AON6796 have a specified gate threshold voltage range, and how does it affect 4.5V logic-level drive?
Yes, the AON6796 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 1.1V to 1.9V at 25°C, ensuring reliable turn-on with 4.5V gate drive. At this voltage, RDS(ON) remains <5mΩ, enabling full 70A conduction capability without gate boosting. This makes the AON6796 compatible with standard 5V microcontroller GPIOs and logic-level drivers in USB-C PD and POL applications.
How is the body diode in AON6796 different from a standard MOSFET body diode?
The AON6796 integrates a Schottky-like "Soft Recovery MOSFET" body diode with 13ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 22nC reverse recovery charge (Qrr). Unlike conventional parasitic body diodes, this structure eliminates minority-carrier storage delay, preventing voltage overshoot and EMI during commutation. This feature is explicitly validated and documented in the AON6796 datasheet, distinguishing it from standard silicon MOSFETs.
Can AON6796 be used in avalanche mode, and what is its rated single-pulse avalanche energy?
Yes, the AON6796 is 100% UIS (unclamped inductive switching) tested with a rated single-pulse avalanche energy of 23mJ at L = 0.05mH. This specification confirms its ability to safely absorb inductive energy during overcurrent or short-circuit events without failure. The test condition and energy value are explicitly listed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of the official AON6796 datasheet.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RθJA) for AON6796 on a standard PCB layout?
The AON6796 exhibits RθJA = 50°C/W when mounted on a 1in² FR-4 board with 2oz copper in still air (TA = 25°C), as measured per JEDEC JESD51-2. This value assumes standard layout practices including thermal vias under the drain pad. For higher power designs, the lower RθJC = 4°C/W should be used with an external heatsink to achieve superior thermal performance beyond PCB-limited dissipation.
