Product details
Overview
AUIRF3805L-7P from Infineon is an automotive-grade N-channel HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TO-263-7 (D²PAK-7) package, rated for 55 V VDSS, 2.0 mΩ typ. RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 240 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It delivers ultra-low conduction loss and supports high-current DC/DC conversion in engine control units and battery disconnect circuits.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRF3805L-7P datasheet, AUIRF3805L-7P pinout, AUIRF3805L-7P application, or AUIRF3805L-7P equivalent, this page provides verified thermal, switching, avalanche, and diode recovery specifications - critical for 12 V/48 V automotive powertrain designs requiring 175°C junction operation and repetitive avalanche robustness.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced silicon processing to achieve 2.0 mΩ on-resistance with 130 nC total gate charge and 49 nC Miller charge, enabling fast switching (tr = 130 ns, tf = 52 ns) while maintaining low EMI in high-frequency synchronous rectifiers. Its 175°C rated junction temperature and 0.50 °C/W RθJC support direct heatsink mounting in space-constrained under-hood modules.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.3 V forward voltage at 140 A and 45 ns reverse recovery time (trr) with 35 nC Qrr, making it suitable for freewheeling in high-current buck converters and motor phase-legs where di/dt exceeds 100 A/µs. Repetitive avalanche capability up to 440 mJ (tested 680 mJ) is validated per unclamped inductive test conditions (IAS = 140 A, L = 0.043 mH).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; enables use in 48 V automotive systems with margin against load-dump transients. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 2.0 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 140 A - Delivers ≤0.4 W conduction loss at 200 A, reducing thermal stress in high-current battery switches. |
| ID cont. @ TC = 25°C | 240 A - Sustains peak starter-motor or regenerative braking currents without derating when mounted on copper heatsink. |
| Qg total | 130 nC - Enables efficient gate drive with standard 2.4 Ω source/sink resistance; reduces driver power dissipation in 100–200 kHz PWM stages. |
| trr / Qrr | 45 ns / 35 nC - Minimizes reverse recovery losses and voltage overshoot during hard commutation in half-bridge inverters. |
| EAS tested | 680 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche energy at TJ = 25°C; supports fault-tolerant operation during short-circuit events in ASIL-B systems. |
| RθJC | 0.50 °C/W - Allows 300 W power dissipation with ≤150°C ΔT from junction to case; compatible with standard IMS or aluminum heatsinks. |
Pinout & Package
TO-263-7 (D²PAK-7) package with exposed drain pad (pins 1–3 and 7 are drain), gate (pin 4), source (pins 5–6). Optimized for low-inductance PCB layout and thermal transfer via backside metal tab soldered to heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 7 | Drain (D) | High-current power path connection; pins 1–3 and 7 share internal drain metallization for <1.5 nH loop inductance. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Control input; isolated by 20 V max. rating; requires <130 nC charge for full enhancement at 10 V. |
| 5, 6 | Source (S) | Power return path; dual-source pins reduce source inductance (LS = 7.5 nH) to improve switching stability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 2.0 mΩ typ. at 140 A - Reduces I²R losses by >30% vs. legacy 3.5 mΩ D²PAK MOSFETs in 12 V starter-generators. |
| 175°C junction rating | Rated operation up to +175°C - Eliminates derating in engine bay environments where ambient exceeds 105°C. |
| Repetitive avalanche capability | Validated per Fig. 15–16 up to 1% duty cycle - Enables robust short-circuit protection without external crowbar circuits. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 45 ns, Qrr = 35 nC - Suppresses voltage spikes during forced commutation in bidirectional DC/DC converters. |
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 qualified - Meets stress testing requirements for ignition, transmission, and ADAS power stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current automotive power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N5LF8AG | 55 V, 1.8 mΩ RDS(on), 220 A ID, TO-263-7, but only 150°C TJ rating and no published EAS test data. | Lacks validated repetitive avalanche performance; unsuitable for short-circuit tolerant designs per ISO 26262 ASIL-B. | Select only if thermal margin allows 150°C limit and system-level fault protection is implemented externally. |
| IPB017N06NATMA1 | 60 V, 1.7 mΩ RDS(on), 240 A ID, TO-263-7, 175°C rated, but higher Qg (165 nC) and slower tf (75 ns). | Higher gate charge increases driver loss; slower fall time raises switching loss in >100 kHz PFC stages. | Prefer for 60 V margin-critical applications where lower RDS(on) outweighs gate drive penalty. |
Compared with STL220N5LF8AG and IPB017N06NATMA1, AUIRF3805L-7P uniquely balances 2.0 mΩ on-resistance, 130 nC gate charge, 45 ns diode recovery, and fully characterized 680 mJ avalanche energy - making it optimal for thermally constrained, fault-tolerant 48 V automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The AUIRF3805L-7P supports 170 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = 10 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating due to reduced channel mobility and increased RDS(on) at elevated temperatures, not package limitation.
Does this MOSFET require a negative gate voltage for safe turn-off in high-di/dt circuits?
No - the device has a gate threshold voltage range of 2.0–4.0 V and is fully enhanced at VGS = 10 V. A negative gate voltage is not required; however, a –5 V to –10 V turn-off bias improves noise immunity and prevents spurious turn-on during high dv/dt events in half-bridge configurations.
How does the body diode's reverse recovery performance compare to discrete Schottky diodes?
The integrated body diode achieves 45 ns trr and 35 nC Qrr at 140 A, outperforming most 200 A Schottky diodes (typically 60–100 ns trr). While Schottkys offer zero Qrr, this MOSFET's diode is optimized for low-loss freewheeling in synchronous rectifiers where its low forward voltage (1.3 V) and tight trr distribution reduce voltage overshoot.
Is the TO-263-7 package pinout compatible with standard D²PAK-3 footprints?
No - the AUIRF3805L-7P uses a 7-pin TO-263 variant with dedicated gate (pin 4) and dual-source (pins 5–6) terminals, unlike the 3-pin D²PAK. PCB layout must accommodate the extended leadframe and separate gate/source routing; footprint cannot be reused from D²PAK-3 designs without revision.
