Product details
Overview
AUIRFR9024N from Infineon is a P-channel automotive-grade HEXFET® Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252AA) package, rated for -55 V VDS, 0.175 Ω RDS(on) at -10 V VGS, and -11 A continuous drain current at 25°C. It operates up to 150°C junction temperature, features full avalanche rating, and is optimized for high-reliability automotive load switching such as body control modules and motor drivers.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRFR9024N datasheet, AUIRFR9024N pinout, AUIRFR9024N application, or AUIRFR9024N equivalent, key selection criteria include its -55 V breakdown voltage, low on-resistance under automotive thermal constraints, fast switching (13 ns td(on), 37 ns tf), repetitive avalanche capability (3.8 mJ), and D-Pak thermal performance (RθJC = 3.3 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device implements a planar P-channel silicon structure with integrated body diode, designed for unidirectional high-side switching in 12 V/24 V automotive systems. Its gate threshold voltage (-2.0 to -4.0 V) enables direct drive from standard CMOS logic, while dynamic dv/dt rating (-10 V/ns) ensures robustness during inductive turn-off transients.
The MOSFET supports repetitive avalanche operation up to Tjmax and delivers 62 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy under defined test conditions (L = 2.8 mH, IAS = -6.6 A). Thermal design leverages low junction-to-case resistance (3.3 °C/W) when mounted on PCBs per AN-994 footprint guidelines.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -55 V - Withstands reverse-biased drain-source voltage up to automotive battery surge levels (e.g., load dump). |
| RDS(on) | 0.175 Ω @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -6.6 A - Enables <1.2 W conduction loss at nominal 7 A load current. |
| ID (continuous) | -11 A @ TC = 25°C - Supports sustained current in engine bay-mounted power stages with adequate heatsinking. |
| tf | 37 ns - Reduces switching losses in PWM-driven solenoid or lamp dimming circuits operating up to 20 kHz. |
| EAR | 3.8 mJ - Allows repeated inductive energy clamping without derating in relay/coil driver protection schemes. |
| RθJC | 3.3 °C/W - Enables 11.5 W power dissipation before reaching 150°C junction limit with 38°C case rise. |
| Qg | 19 nC - Determines gate driver current requirement (~1.9 mA average for 100 kHz switching at 10 V swing). |
Pinout & Package
D-Pak (TO-252AA) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; standard 3-pin configuration with G–D–S pin order (viewed from top, marking side up, leads down).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives negative VGS to turn on; threshold range (-2.0 to -4.0 V) allows compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V microcontroller outputs via level shift. |
| Drain (D) | High-side power output | Connected to load supply rail; electrically and thermally tied to exposed copper pad for low-inductance, high-current return path. |
| Source (S) | Reference node | Common return for load current and gate drive reference; must be routed with low impedance to minimize shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 qualified for under-hood use with guaranteed operation from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature. |
| Full avalanche rating | Rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching up to Tjmax, eliminating need for external snubbers in solenoid drivers. |
| Low RDS(on) | 0.175 Ω enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 7 A, reducing thermal stress in space-constrained BCM modules. |
| Fast switching | 13 ns td(on)/37 ns tf minimizes transition losses in 10–20 kHz PWM applications like LED headlight dimming. |
| Lead-free & RoHS | Compliant with automotive environmental standards; compatible with Pb-free reflow profiles per J-STD-020. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP12PF06 | VDS = -60 V, RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω @ -10 V, no AEC-Q101 certification | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable only for industrial or non-safety-critical automotive subsystems | Select if cost sensitivity outweighs qualification requirements and thermal margin permits higher RDS(on). |
| IRF9540NPBF | VDS = -100 V, RDS(on) = 0.2 Ω @ -10 V, TO-220 package, not automotive-qualified | Higher voltage rating but larger footprint and no thermal spec for PCB mount; no avalanche energy rating | Choose only for legacy designs requiring TO-220 mechanical fit; avoid in new automotive designs due to missing qualification and thermal data. |
Compared with STP12PF06 and IRF9540NPBF, AUIRFR9024N provides verified automotive reliability, lower on-resistance in compact D-Pak, and documented repetitive avalanche capability-critical for solenoid and motor control where inductive energy management is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The AUIRFR9024N supports -8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = -10 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the D-Pak package under sustained high-temperature operation, and must be validated against actual board layout and airflow conditions.
Is a gate resistor required for safe operation?
Yes-a gate resistor (typically 10–100 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing and control dV/dt during switching. The device's 19 nC total gate charge and fast 13 ns turn-on delay make it susceptible to oscillation without proper gate drive impedance, especially in high-di/dt inductive load applications.
Can AUIRFR9024N replace AUIRFU9024N in a design?
No-AUIRFR9024N (D-Pak) and AUIRFU9024N (I-Pak) differ in package thermal resistance and mounting geometry. While electrically identical, the D-Pak's lower RθJC (3.3 vs. 50 °C/W for I-Pak PCB mount) and different footprint require PCB redesign and thermal validation before substitution.
Does the body diode support continuous conduction mode?
The integrated body diode is rated for -11 A continuous source current at 25°C, but its forward voltage (-1.6 V at -7.2 A) and reverse recovery characteristics (trr = 47–71 ns) limit use in high-frequency synchronous rectification. It is intended for freewheeling in low-duty-cycle inductive loads-not for sustained bidirectional conduction.
