Product details
Overview
AUIRF3805S from Infineon is an automotive-grade N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for 55 V VDS, 2.6 mΩ typ. RDS(on) at 10 V VGS, and 160 A continuous drain current (package-limited). It delivers ultra-low conduction loss, 175°C junction operation, and robust repetitive avalanche capability-used in high-current DC-DC converters and motor control stages of EV onboard chargers and 48V mild-hybrid systems.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRF3805S datasheet, AUIRF3805S pinout, AUIRF3805S application, or AUIRF3805S equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal performance under forced-air cooling, gate drive energy requirements (190 nC total Qg), body diode recovery behavior (36 ns trr), and compliance with AEC-Q101 stress testing for under-hood deployment.
Technical Context
This device employs Infineon's HEXFET® process to achieve silicon-limited on-resistance of 2.6 mΩ at 10 V gate drive while maintaining 55 V breakdown voltage and 175°C maximum junction temperature. Its low Ciss (7960 pF) and optimized Crss/Coss ratio support fast switching with controlled dV/dt during hard commutation.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.3 V forward voltage at 75 A and 36 ns reverse recovery time-critical for synchronous rectification and freewheeling in high-frequency buck converters. Repetitive avalanche energy is thermally limited up to 200 mJ at TJ = 125°C per pulse, validated per unclamped inductive test (UIL) conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Withstands peak system voltages in 48V automotive architectures without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 2.6 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 75 A - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 75 A, reducing heatsink size. |
| ID (package) | 160 A @ TC = 25°C - Matches PCB-mount thermal limits for D2PAK on 1"² FR-4 board. |
| Qg total | 190 nC - Requires ~1.9 µC gate charge per switch cycle at 10 V drive; impacts driver sizing. |
| trr | 36 ns @ TJ = 25°C, IF = 75 A - Minimizes diode recovery loss and EMI in synchronous buck topologies. |
| RθJC | 0.50 °C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting with predictable junction-to-case thermal path. |
| EAS tested | 940 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche ruggedness beyond datasheet minimum (650 mJ). |
Pinout & Package
Package: D2PAK (TO-263), surface-mount with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. Standard footprint per AN-994; requires solder mask defined pads and thermal vias for optimal heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main current path from source to load | Exposed metal tab - electrically connected to drain; must be isolated from chassis unless referenced to system ground. |
| Source (S) | Return path for load current; reference for gate drive | Low-inductance source bond wires; critical for stable gate control in high-di/dt applications. |
| Gate (G) | Control terminal for channel formation | High-impedance input requiring <200 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD; needs series resistor to damp oscillation. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 2.6 mΩ typ. reduces conduction losses by >30% vs. legacy 55 V MOSFETs in same package. |
| 175°C operating junction | Enables full-rated current in engine bay environments where ambient exceeds 105°C. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Validated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to TJmax, eliminating snubber circuits in motor drives. |
| Fast body diode recovery | 36 ns trr and 47 nC Qrr minimize shoot-through risk and switching loss in synchronous rectifiers. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Passed stress tests including HTGB, HTRB, and temperature cycling - certified for safety-critical automotive subsystems. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 55 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N5LF8AG | RDS(on) = 2.0 mΩ (lower), but Qg = 240 nC (higher); 150°C max TJ | Lacks AEC-Q101 certification; not approved for safety-critical automotive use | Preferable only in non-automotive industrial DC-DC where gate drive margin exists and thermal headroom is ample. |
| IRFS7537PBF | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ (higher); 175°C rated; Qg = 150 nC (lower); TO-220 package | Lower current rating (110 A package-limited); no D2PAK thermal interface | Suitable for lower-power (<3 kW), space-constrained designs where PCB mounting is impractical and heatsinking is via clip. |
Compared with STL220N5LF8AG and IRFS7537PBF, the AUIRF3805S uniquely balances ultra-low RDS(on), automotive qualification, and D2PAK thermal performance-making it the only choice for production 48V hybrid inverters requiring both efficiency and functional safety compliance.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for AUIRF3805S at 100°C case temperature?
The AUIRF3805S supports 150 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C when silicon-limited, per datasheet Figure 9. This reflects thermal derating from the 160 A package limit at 25°C, governed by RθJC = 0.50 °C/W and maximum TJ = 175°C. Actual usable current depends on heatsink resistance and airflow.
Does AUIRF3805S require a gate resistor for reliable operation?
Yes-a gate resistor (typically 5–22 Ω) is required to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance interacting with Qg = 190 nC and Ciss = 7960 pF. Without it, overshoot exceeding ±20 V VGS rating may occur during fast switching, risking oxide damage or spurious turn-on in paralleled configurations.
Can AUIRF3805S be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with matched devices and symmetrical PCB layout. Its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (Figure 10) enables current sharing above 100°C junction temperature. Gate drive must be low-inductance and individually resistively damped; source inductance mismatch must be minimized to avoid dynamic imbalance.
Is the body diode of AUIRF3805S suitable for synchronous rectification?
Yes-the body diode has 36 ns trr and 47 nC Qrr at 75 A, enabling efficient synchronous rectification in buck converters up to 200 kHz. However, its 1.3 V VSD forward drop increases conduction loss versus Schottky diodes; optimal use requires precise timing control to minimize overlap conduction.
