Product details
Overview
AUIRF2804 from Infineon is an automotive-grade N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for 40 V VDSS, 1.8 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 195 A package-limited continuous drain current, and 175°C maximum junction temperature - deployed in high-current DC-DC converters and motor control stages of engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRF2804 datasheet, AUIRF2804 pinout, AUIRF2804 application, or AUIRF2804 equivalent, this page delivers verified thermal resistance (RθJC = 0.45°C/W), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 540 mJ), gate charge (Qg = 160–240 nC), and body diode recovery performance (trr = 56–84 ns) to support robust switching design and thermal margining.
Technical Context
This device employs Infineon's HEXFET® process to achieve ultra-low on-resistance per die area while maintaining rugged unclamped inductive switching capability. Its 175°C TJ rating and repetitive avalanche allowance (up to TJmax) enable operation in thermally constrained under-hood environments without derating penalties.
The MOSFET features a fast-switching profile with td(on) = 13 ns, tr = 120 ns, td(off) = 130 ns, and tf = 130 ns at ID = 75 A, supported by low output capacitance (Coss = 1690 pF at VDS = 25 V) and optimized gate drive requirements (Qgd/Qgs ratio ≈ 1.6).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines safe operating range in 12 V/24 V automotive battery systems. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 1.8 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 75 A - Enables <1.4 W conduction loss at 195 A, critical for high-efficiency power stages. |
| ID (Package) | 195 A @ TC = 25°C - Real-world current limit dictated by leadframe and case thermal path, not silicon. |
| EAS | 540 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy limit at TJ = 25°C; supports reliable operation during load dump or inductive turn-off transients. |
| Qg | 160–240 nC - Total gate charge determines driver strength requirement; impacts switching loss and gate drive loop stability. |
| tr/tf | 120/130 ns - Fast edge rates reduce transition time losses but require careful PCB layout to suppress EMI and ringing. |
| RθJC | 0.45°C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables accurate heatsink sizing when mounted with proper torque (1.1 N·m). |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-pin through-hole mounting. Case material: epoxy-molded plastic with copper leadframe; tab electrically connected to drain for direct heatsinking.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Left) | Gate (G) | High-impedance control terminal; requires <20 V absolute max rating and low-inductance gate drive routing. |
| Pin 2 (Middle) | Drain (D) | Main power output node; internally bonded to metal tab - must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system ground reference permits. |
| Pin 3 (Right) | Source (S) | Power return path and gate reference; connects to PCB ground plane with minimal trace inductance to preserve switching fidelity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 1.8 mΩ typ. at 10 V drive reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. legacy 40 V MOSFETs in same package. |
| 175°C TJ rating | Enables full-rated current delivery in under-hood ambient up to 125°C without thermal throttling. |
| Repetitive avalanche capability | Validated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to TJmax, eliminating need for external snubbers in solenoid drivers. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 56–84 ns with Qrr = 67–100 nC supports synchronous rectification and ZVS topologies. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 qualified with 100% production lot testing for HTOL, temperature cycling, and bond wire pull. |
Applications
| Engine Control Unit (ECU) Fuel Injector Driver | 12 V Automotive DC-DC Converter Primary Switch |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-speed switching of 12 V fuel injectors with peak currents up to 180 A and pulse widths down to 1 ms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power switch controlling injector coil energization; operates in hard-switched PWM mode at 1–10 kHz. Use Value: Low RDS(on) minimizes resistive heating during extended duty cycles; 175°C rating ensures reliability across -40°C to +150°C under-hood conditions. | Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in 12 V input, 5 V/30 A buck converter supplying infotainment and ADAS subsystems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current synchronous rectifier replacement; switched at 250–500 kHz with gate drive optimized for Qg = 200 nC. Use Value: Coss = 1690 pF and fast tr/tf reduce switching loss; RθJC = 0.45°C/W allows compact heatsink integration on dense PCB layouts. |
| Electric Power Steering (EPS) Motor Phase Leg | Start-Stop System Solenoid Actuator |
Use Scenario: Half-bridge phase leg in 48 V EPS motor drive delivering 150 A peak phase current with bidirectional regenerative braking. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch handling reverse current during PWM regeneration; body diode conducts freewheeling current. Use Value: trr = 56 ns and low Qrr minimize diode conduction loss and voltage overshoot during commutation. | Use Scenario: High-reliability solenoid actuation in 12 V start-stop battery disconnect circuits with 100,000+ cycle lifetime. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unclamped inductive switch subjected to repetitive avalanche events during de-energization. Use Value: EAS = 540 mJ and validated repetitive avalanche performance eliminate need for external clamping diodes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(on) = 1.4 mΩ (typ), Qg = 195 nC, TO-220FP package with insulated tab | Lower RDS(on) improves efficiency but higher Qg increases gate drive loss; insulated tab simplifies heatsink isolation | Select when thermal interface complexity outweighs marginal conduction gain; verify gate drive slew rate compatibility |
| IRF1404ZLPbF | RDS(on) = 2.7 mΩ (max), EAS = 370 mJ, non-automotive qualified, TO-220AB | Higher on-resistance and lower avalanche rating reduce margin in demanding automotive transients | Acceptable only for cost-sensitive non-automotive industrial use; not suitable for AEC-Q101-compliant designs |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRF1404ZLPbF, AUIRF2804 offers balanced trade-offs: superior avalanche robustness over IRF1404ZLPbF and lower gate charge than STL220N4F7AG - making it optimal for thermally constrained, transient-heavy automotive power stages where reliability trumps marginal efficiency gains.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for AUIRF2804 at 100°C case temperature?
The AUIRF2804 supports 190 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C under VGS = 10 V bias, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects silicon-limited current at elevated temperature and assumes adequate heatsinking to maintain case temperature at 100°C.
Is AUIRF2804 suitable for synchronous rectification in a 400 kHz buck converter?
Yes - its fast body diode (trr = 56–84 ns, Qrr = 67–100 nC) and low RDS(on) (1.8 mΩ) support efficient synchronous rectification at 400 kHz. However, gate drive must deliver ≥2 A peak current to charge Qg = 200 nC within nanoseconds and minimize shoot-through risk.
Does AUIRF2804 require a gate resistor for automotive EMI compliance?
Yes - a 2.5 Ω gate resistor is used in the official switching characterization (td(off), tf), and empirical data shows that values between 2.2 Ω and 4.7 Ω suppress dv/dt-induced noise while maintaining acceptable switching speed. Layout must minimize gate loop inductance to avoid oscillation.
Can AUIRF2804 replace AUIRF2804S in a TO-220 footprint design?
No - AUIRF2804S uses D2PAK (TO-263) packaging with different pin pitch, thermal pad layout, and solder footprint. While both share identical electrical specs, mechanical incompatibility prevents drop-in replacement; board redesign is required to accommodate the surface-mount D2PAK variant.
