Product details
Overview
AUXFN8403TR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is an automotive-grade N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in a PQFN 5 mm × 6 mm package, rated for 40 V VDSS, 2.5 mΩ RDS(on) (typ.) at VGS = 10 V, 122 A silicon-limited continuous drain current, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a high-efficiency main switch in electric power steering (EPS) and battery disconnect circuits.
For engineers reviewing the AUXFN8403TR datasheet, AUXFN8403TR pinout, AUXFN8403TR application, or AUXFN8403TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 95 A package-limited continuous current, 65 nC typical total gate charge, 1.6 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance (bottom side), repetitive avalanche capability up to Tjmax, and AEC-Q101 qualification for under-hood automotive use.
Technical Context
This device employs advanced HEXFET® process technology optimized for low RDS(on) per die area and robust unclamped inductive switching performance. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.6 V to 3.9 V, enabling reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level drivers in high-current DC-DC and load-switching topologies.
The MOSFET integrates a fast, low-loss body diode with 0.9 V typical forward voltage at 50 A and 16 ns reverse recovery time at 25 °C. Its dynamic parameters-including 23 nC Miller charge (Qgd), 3174 pF input capacitance (Ciss), and 26 ns fall time-support high-frequency synchronous rectification and PWM control up to several hundred kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; suitable for 12 V/24 V automotive battery systems with transient margin. |
| RDS(on) (typ.) | 2.5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 50 A - Enables <1.25 W conduction loss at 50 A, critical for thermally constrained EPS modules. |
| ID (Silicon Limited) | 122 A @ TC = 25 °C - Silicon die capacity; actual usable current limited by package thermal resistance and PCB layout. |
| Qg (typ.) | 65 nC - Determines gate drive power requirement; enables efficient switching with moderate-strength gate drivers (e.g., 2 A peak). |
| RθJC (Bottom) | 1.6 °C/W - Thermal path from junction to PCB copper via bottom thermal pad; requires direct solder connection to 2+ oz Cu thermal plane. |
| EAS (Tested) | 165 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; supports robust operation during load dump or inductive kick events without derating. |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Enables operation in engine bay environments where ambient exceeds 105 °C, with margin for self-heating. |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V automotive power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(on) = 1.8 mΩ (lower), Qg = 95 nC (higher), PQFN 5×6 mm, AEC-Q101 qualified. | Better conduction loss but higher gate drive demand; less suitable for space-constrained EPS modules with weak gate drivers. | Select when thermal budget allows higher gate drive power and lowest possible RDS(on) is prioritized over switching speed. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C09NT1G | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ (higher), Qg = 52 nC (lower), SO-8FL package, AEC-Q101 qualified. | Lower gate charge eases driver design but higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss; SO-8FL has higher RθJA than PQFN. | Select for cost-sensitive non-EPS applications where board space permits larger thermal footprint and 3.2 mΩ is acceptable. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and NTMFS4C09NT1G, AUXFN8403TR delivers optimal balance of ultra-low RDS(on), moderate gate charge, and industry-leading thermal resistance-making it preferred for thermally dense, high-reliability automotive power stages where both conduction and switching losses must be minimized.

FAQ
What is the recommended PCB layout for thermal management of AUXFN8403TR?
The PQFN 5×6 mm package requires a minimum 200 mm² exposed copper thermal pad on the primary PCB layer, connected via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, filled or capped) to internal ground planes. Application Note AN-1136 specifies 10 mm × 10 mm stencil aperture for the thermal pad and 0.15 mm thickness for optimal solder paste volume. Avoid solder mask over the thermal pad to ensure full thermal contact.
Does AUXFN8403TR support paralleling for higher current applications?
Yes-its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (0.031 V/°C) enables inherent current sharing when multiple devices are paralleled. Designers must match gate drive loop inductance and PCB trace lengths within ±5% to prevent dynamic imbalance. Derate total current by 15% versus sum of individual ratings to account for thermal coupling effects in dense layouts.
What is the maximum allowable dv/dt during body diode commutation?
The datasheet specifies a peak diode recovery dv/dt rating of 2.5 V/ns at TJ = 175 °C and IS = 50 A. Exceeding this value risks parasitic turn-on of adjacent MOSFETs in half-bridge configurations. Use gate resistors ≥10 Ω and local RC snubbers across drain-source if measured dv/dt exceeds 2.0 V/ns in prototype testing.
How does the repetitive avalanche rating impact system-level protection design?
AUXFN8403TR is rated for unlimited repetitive avalanche events as long as Tj ≤ 175 °C, eliminating need for external avalanche clamps in inductive load circuits. System designers must calculate worst-case avalanche energy per event using E = ½ × 1.3 × VBR × IAV × tAV and verify that cumulative heating stays within thermal limits using ZthJC curves from Figure 13.
