Product details
Overview
AON7520 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 30 V, 42 A, 3.8 mΩ N-channel MOSFET in a 5x6 mm DFN package, optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC power conversion in server VRMs and POL converters.
For engineers reviewing the AON7520 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 10 V and 4.5 V, Qg, thermal resistance (RθJA), and compliance with halogen-free packaging requirements.
Technical Context
The AON7520 uses Trench MOSFET technology to achieve low on-resistance and fast switching characteristics. It supports logic-level gate drive (VGS(th) = 1.5 V typical) and exhibits low gate charge (Qg = 19 nC) for reduced driver losses.
Designed for synchronous buck topologies, it features a 100% EAS-rated rugged body diode and operates within a junction temperature range of –55 °C to +150 °C. Its DFN package enables low-inductance layout and enhanced thermal performance over leaded alternatives.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V input rail applications |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 3.8 mΩ - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 16 A continuous current |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 4.5 V | 5.2 mΩ - Ensures robust operation with 5 V gate drive in POL modules |
| Qg | 19 nC - Reduces gate driver power dissipation and switching transition time |
| RθJA | 40 °C/W - Achievable with 1-in² 2-oz copper pad; supports >25 W power dissipation |
| Package | 5×6 mm DFN-8 - Exposed drain pad improves thermal path to PCB ground plane |
Pinout & Package
Package: 5×6 mm DFN-8 with exposed drain pad (pin 1–3: source; pin 4–6: gate; pin 7–8: drain; pin 7/8 tied internally to thermal pad).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | Source | Common return node for channel current; electrically tied to thermal pad via PCB copper |
| 4–6 | Gate | Control terminal requiring <19 nC charge for full enhancement; low Miller capacitance (Qgd = 5.5 nC) |
| 7–8 + thermal pad | Drain | Main power output node; internal connection to exposed copper pad for direct PCB heat sinking |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Halogen-free construction | Meets AOS Green Policy: Br/Cl <900 ppm each, total Br+Cl <1500 ppm - eliminates corrosive decomposition byproducts |
| 100% EAS rated | Guaranteed 100 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - supports reliable operation under inductive switching stress |
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) = 1.5 V (typ), enabling direct interface with 3.3 V or 5 V PWM controllers without level shifters |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 5.5 nC / 19 nC = 0.29 - minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk in synchronous rectification |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLHS6342 | RDS(on) = 4.2 mΩ @ 4.5 V; Qg = 22 nC; same 5×6 mm DFN-8 package | Slightly higher conduction loss at low gate drive; marginally slower switching | Prefer AON7520 where <5 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V is critical for POL efficiency |
| SiR872DP | RDS(on) = 3.5 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 25 nC; 5×6 mm PowerPAK SO-8 package | Lower RDS(on) but higher Qg; different pinout and thermal pad layout | Choose AON7520 when DFN-8 footprint compatibility and lower gate drive sensitivity are required |
Compared with IRLHS6342 and SiR872DP, the AON7520 delivers superior gate-drive flexibility (1.5 V VGS(th)) and balanced switching-conduction trade-offs, making it optimal for space-constrained, logic-driven POL and VRM designs where thermal management relies on PCB copper rather than external heatsinks.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the AON7520?
The AON7520 is rated for 42 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C with proper heatsinking. At TA = 25 °C on a standard 1-in² 2-oz copper pad, derated current is 16 A due to RθJA = 40 °C/W. The AON7520 datasheet specifies absolute maximum ID = ±42 A, with pulse current up to 120 A.
Does the AON7520 meet halogen-free requirements per AOS Green Policy?
Yes, the AON7520 complies fully with AOS Green Policy: bromine and chlorine content are each below 900 ppm, and total halogens are below 1500 ppm. It uses halogen-free molding compound and qualifies as a "Green" part without requiring an "L" suffix, as all DFN packages were converted to halogen-free by 2010.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the AON7520?
The AON7520 has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 1.2 V to 2.2 V at ID = 250 µA, with a typical value of 1.5 V. This logic-level characteristic allows direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V PWM controllers, and the AON7520 maintains stable enhancement down to 4.5 V gate drive in high-current POL applications.
Is the AON7520 suitable for synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters?
Yes, the AON7520 is widely used for synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters operating up to 500 kHz. Its low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.29) suppresses Miller-induced turn-on, and its 100 mJ EAS rating ensures robustness against voltage overshoot during zero-voltage switching transitions in the AON7520-based secondary-side design.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RθJA) for the AON7520 in standard layout?
The AON7520 has an RθJA of 40 °C/W when mounted on a 1-in² 2-oz copper pad on a 4-layer PCB with no additional heatsink. This value assumes full thermal pad soldering to the PCB ground plane. The AON7520's exposed drain pad directly couples heat into the board, enabling >25 W power dissipation in optimized layouts.
