Product details
Overview
AUIRFS8407 from Infineon Technologies is an automotive-grade N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in D2Pak (TO-263) package, rated for 40 V VDS, 1.4 mΩ typ. RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 250 A silicon-limited continuous drain current, and 175°C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a high-efficiency main power switch in electric power steering (EPS) and battery disconnect circuits.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRFS8407 datasheet, AUIRFS8407 pinout, AUIRFS8407 application, or AUIRFS8407 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, validated pin functions, automotive-qualified thermal and avalanche performance data, and real-world design implications for high-current DC-DC and start-stop systems.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced trench-gate silicon processing to achieve ultra-low on-resistance per die area while maintaining robust unclamped inductive switching capability. Its 175°C TJ rating and 230 mJ tested single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) enable operation under sustained thermal stress in engine-bay-mounted EPS modules.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode with 30 ns trr, 24 nC Qrr, and 3.0 V/ns dv/dt immunity-critical for synchronous rectification and bidirectional current handling in micro-hybrid DC-DC converters. Gate charge parameters (Qg = 150–225 nC, Qgd = 51 nC) support optimized gate drive sizing for <78 ns turn-off delay and <53 ns fall time.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V automotive battery rail applications with transient margin. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 1.4 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, TJ = 25°C - Enables <0.35 W conduction loss at 300 A peak, reducing heatsink requirements. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40 V, 0.95 mΩ RDS(on), TO-263, but only 150 A ID cont., no AEC-Q101-005 certification | Lacks automotive qualification; suitable for industrial DC-DC but not EPS or battery switch | Select only for non-automotive designs where lower RDS(on) outweighs qualification needs. |
| IRFB4115PBF | 150 V, 4.5 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220AB, AEC-Q101 qualified, but 175 A ID and 150°C TJ max | Higher voltage rating trades off on-resistance and thermal capability; limited to lower-current EPS variants | Use when system requires >40 V transient tolerance but cannot accommodate D2Pak footprint. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRFB4115PBF, AUIRFS8407 uniquely balances 250 A current capacity, 1.4 mΩ on-resistance, 175°C operation, and full AEC-Q101-005 compliance-making it the only choice for production-critical EPS and battery-switch applications demanding both performance and qualification.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for AUIRFS8407 at 100°C case temperature?
The AUIRFS8407 supports 195 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value reflects wire-bond current limitation-not silicon limit-and is validated under board-mounted, still-air conditions with proper thermal interface material and heatsink contact.
Does AUIRFS8407 include an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, AUIRFS8407 features an integral reverse p-n junction body diode with VSD = 1.0–1.3 V at 100 A, trr = 30 ns, Qrr = 24 nC, and IRM = 1.3 A. These values are measured at TJ = 25°C with di/dt = 100 A/μs and VR = 34 V, supporting efficient synchronous rectification in DC-DC stages.
Can AUIRFS8407 be used in parallel configurations, and what layout considerations apply?
Yes, AUIRFS8407 supports paralleling due to its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (see Fig. 4). Critical layout requirements include matched gate trace lengths (<5 mm difference), symmetrical source routing to minimize loop inductance, and individual 2.2 Ω gate resistors to prevent oscillation-verified in Infineon Application Note AN-1001.
What is the gate threshold voltage range, and how does it vary with temperature?
VGS(th) is specified from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25°C, with typical value 3.0 V. As shown in Fig. 17, it decreases linearly with rising temperature: ~2.5 V at 125°C and ~2.2 V at 175°C. This behavior ensures stable turn-on margin across full automotive temperature range when driven with ≥10 V gate voltage.
