Product details
Overview
AUIRFZ24NS from Infineon is an automotive-grade N-channel D2-Pak (TO-263AB) HEXFET® Power MOSFET with 55 V VDS, 0.07 Ω RDS(on) max at VGS = 10 V and 10 A, and 17 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It operates up to 175°C junction temperature, features full avalanche rating, and is used in high-reliability DC-DC converters and motor control stages in engine management systems.
For engineers reviewing the AUIRFZ24NS datasheet, AUIRFZ24NS pinout, AUIRFZ24NS application, or AUIRFZ24NS equivalent, key selection criteria include its 68 A pulsed drain current, 71 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, 20 nC total gate charge, and D2-Pak thermal performance (RθJC = 3.3°C/W), critical for automotive power stage design under transient stress.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced planar silicon processing to minimize conduction loss while maintaining robust dynamic dV/dt (6.8 V/ns) and dI/dt capability. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) and low 5.3 nC gate-to-source charge support fast, predictable turn-on in 12 V automotive supply environments.
The device integrates a co-packaged body diode with 1.3 V forward voltage at 10 A and 56–83 ns reverse recovery time, enabling efficient synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and half-bridge topologies without external diode supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Withstands peak transients up to 44 V in 12 V automotive systems without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) max | 0.07 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 10 A - Enables ≤0.7 W conduction loss at 10 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| ID continuous | 17 A @ TC = 25°C - Supports high-current loads such as fuel pump drivers and HVAC blower motors. |
| EAS | 71 mJ - Absorbs unclamped inductive energy during switching faults, protecting against destructive avalanche events. |
| Qg | 20 nC - Determines gate drive power requirement; compatible with standard 1 A peak gate drivers. |
| TJ max | 175°C - Meets AEC-Q101 requirements for under-hood operation in engine control units. |
| dv/dt rating | 6.8 V/ns - Resists false turn-on due to high-speed voltage transients in noisy automotive environments. |
Pinout & Package
D2-Pak (TO-263AB) package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction and mechanical stability on PCB. Standard 3-pin configuration: Gate (G), Drain (D), Source (S), with Drain connected to the metal tab for low-inductance, high-current path routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate | Controls channel conduction; requires 10 V drive for full enhancement; 2.0–4.0 V threshold enables compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V logic-level controllers via level-shifting. |
| D | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; electrically and thermally connected to exposed metal tab; must be routed with wide copper pour for thermal dissipation and current handling. |
| S | Source | Power return path and reference node for gate drive; tied to system ground in low-side switch configurations; forms source of internal body diode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 175°C operating junction temperature | Enables deployment in high-ambient under-hood locations without derating, meeting AEC-Q101 Grade 0/1 thermal requirements. |
| Full repetitive avalanche rating | Allows safe operation under repeated inductive switching stress (up to 4.5 mJ per pulse), eliminating need for external snubbers in solenoid drivers. |
| Low 7.5 nH internal source inductance | Reduces voltage overshoot during fast turn-off, improving EMI profile and enabling higher switching frequencies in DC-DC regulators. |
| Lead-free, RoHS-compliant construction | Meets automotive environmental compliance standards (ELV Directive) and supports lead-free reflow soldering processes (300°C for 10 s). |
| Dynamic dV/dt capability (6.8 V/ns) | Prevents spurious turn-on during high dv/dt events in high-frequency inverters, enhancing system reliability without added gate resistors. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40 V VDS, 0.35 mΩ RDS(on), PowerFLAT 5x6 package, lower thermal resistance (1.5°C/W), but lower voltage rating. | Not suitable for 48 V systems or 55 V transients; limited to 12 V/24 V low-voltage domains. | Select only if system VDD ≤ 36 V and board space is constrained; verify avalanche capability is not required. |
| IRFZ44NPBF | 55 V VDS, 0.028 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package, non-automotive grade, no AEC-Q101 qualification, 150°C TJ max. | Lacks automotive qualification and 175°C rating; unsuitable for under-hood use or safety-critical functions. | Acceptable for cost-sensitive industrial prototypes only; not recommended for production automotive designs. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRFZ44NPBF, AUIRFZ24NS uniquely balances 55 V rating, AEC-Q101 compliance, 175°C operation, and D2-Pak thermal performance-making it the sole choice for production-grade 12 V/48 V automotive power switches requiring avalanche ruggedness and long-term reliability.

FAQ
Is AUIRFZ24NS pin-compatible with AUIRFZ24NL?
Yes, AUIRFZ24NS (D2-Pak/TO-263AB) and AUIRFZ24NL (TO-262) share identical pinout order (G-D-S) and electrical specifications, but differ in package thermal performance: AUIRFZ24NS has RθJC = 3.3°C/W versus 3.8°C/W for AUIRFZ24NL, making it preferable for higher-power-density layouts.
What is the maximum gate drive voltage for AUIRFZ24NS?
The absolute maximum gate-to-source voltage is ±20 V. For reliable operation, gate drive should be limited to 10–15 V to ensure full enhancement while avoiding oxide stress; exceeding 16 V increases risk of long-term threshold shift, especially at elevated temperatures.
Does AUIRFZ24NS require a gate resistor in automotive applications?
A gate resistor (typically 10–24 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing caused by PCB trace inductance and MOSFET input capacitance, particularly in high-dv/dt environments like alternator load dumps; omission may cause oscillation and premature gate oxide failure.
Can AUIRFZ24NS be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
Yes-the integrated body diode has 1.3 V forward voltage at 10 A and 56–83 ns reverse recovery time, enabling use in synchronous buck converters up to 200 kHz; however, external Schottky diodes are preferred for >300 kHz operation due to lower Qrr and trr.
