Product details
Overview
BSB012NE2LX from Infineon Technologies is a 25 V, 170 A n-channel power MOSFET in MG-WDSON-2 package, optimized as a control FET in high-frequency synchronous buck converters for server VRMs. It delivers RDS(on) = 1.2 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 32 nC, and Qoss = 35 nC, enabling ultra-low conduction and switching losses in point-of-load applications.
For engineers reviewing the BSB012NE2LX datasheet, BSB012NE2LX pinout, BSB012NE2LX application, or BSB012NE2LX equivalent, this device is selected for high-current, low-voltage DC-DC conversion where thermal performance, gate drive efficiency, and double-sided cooling capability are critical design constraints.
Technical Context
The BSB012NE2LX employs an optimized trench-based OptiMOS™25V process to achieve ultra-low RDS(on) and gate charge trade-offs. Its dynamic parameters-Ciss = 4900 pF, Coss = 1700 pF, Crss = 190 pF-support fast, low-loss switching with minimal voltage overshoot in hard-switched topologies.
Designed for synchronous rectification in multiphase VRMs, it features 100% avalanche tested ruggedness (EAS = 240 mJ), JEDEC-qualified reliability (J-STD-20/JESD22), and a thermally enhanced MG-WDSON-2 package with bottom-side thermal pad and <0.7 mm profile for double-sided cooling integration.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 25 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V input bus and 1–3.3 V output rails in server VRMs |
| RDS(on), max | 1.2 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables ≤2.1 W conduction loss at 100 A, critical for high-current phase legs |
| ID, cont. | 170 A @ TC = 25 °C - Supports multi-phase current sharing up to 680 A total with four phases |
| Qg, typ | 32 nC @ VGS = 0–10 V - Reduces gate driver power demand and enables >1 MHz switching without excessive drive loss |
| RthJC | 1.0 K/W (bottom) - Allows direct thermal coupling to heatsink or PCB copper, enabling <40 °C junction rise at 100 W dissipation |
| Qoss | 35 nC @ VDD = 12 V - Minimizes turn-off energy loss during zero-voltage switching transitions in advanced VRM topologies |
| VGS(th) | 1.2–2.0 V - Ensures robust turn-on margin with standard 3.3 V or 5 V gate drivers while suppressing shoot-through risk |
Pinout & Package
MG-WDSON-2 is a leadless, double-sided cooling package with exposed drain paddle on bottom and source/gate terminals on top surface. The package supports solder reflow mounting and direct thermal interface to both PCB and heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Paddle) | Main current path and thermal interface | Electrically and thermally connected to PCB copper pour; requires full-solder coverage for RthJC = 1.0 K/W |
| Source (Top) | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-inductance connection to source loop; critical for minimizing dV/dt-induced false turn-on |
| Gate (Top) | Control terminal for channel modulation | Requires low-impedance gate resistor (RG ≈ 1.6 Ω typical) to balance switching speed and EMI |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Optimized for high-performance buck converter | Low Qg/RDS(on) ratio (26.7 nC/mΩ) enables efficient operation at >1 MHz with minimal dead-time loss |
| Double-sided cooling | Thermal resistance split: RthJC = 1.0 K/W (bottom), RthJC = 2.2 K/W (top) - supports stacked heatsink + PCB copper cooling |
| 100% Rg tested | Guarantees gate resistance ≤0.55 Ω - ensures consistent switching timing across production lots |
| Low-profile (<0.7 mm) | Enables placement under VRM inductors or in tight vertical space constraints of 1U server boards |
| Compatible with DirectFET® MX footprint | Drop-in replacement for legacy DirectFET® designs without PCB redesign or layout change |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF6642TRPBF | RDS(on) = 1.4 mΩ, Qg = 34 nC, same MG-WDSON-2 package | Higher gate charge increases driver loss at >800 kHz; slightly higher RDS(on) raises conduction loss by ~16% | Acceptable for lower-frequency VRMs (<600 kHz); not recommended for 1 MHz+ AI accelerator POLs |
| DMTH10H025LPSQ-13 | RDS(on) = 1.1 mΩ, Qg = 41 nC, PowerPAK® 1212-8 package | Higher Qg degrades switching efficiency; different footprint requires PCB redesign | Preferred only when absolute lowest RDS(on) dominates over gate drive loss and layout compatibility |
Compared with IRF6642TRPBF and DMTH10H025LPSQ-13, BSB012NE2LX offers the optimal balance of ultra-low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and drop-in DirectFET® MX compatibility-making it uniquely suited for high-frequency, high-current server VRMs where thermal density and layout reuse are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for BSB012NE2LX at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 107 A at TC = 100 °C and VGS = 10 V, as specified in Table 2 of the final datasheet. This derating reflects thermal limits of the MG-WDSON-2 package under realistic board-level cooling conditions with 6 cm² copper area.
Does BSB012NE2LX support gate drive from 3.3 V logic?
Yes-its VGS(th) range of 1.2–2.0 V ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V gate drivers, though RDS(on) increases to 1.6 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V (Table 4). For minimum conduction loss, 10 V drive is recommended.
Is the MG-WDSON-2 package compatible with standard reflow profiles?
Yes-the package is qualified per J-STD-020 and supports standard lead-free reflow profiles (peak 260 °C, 20–40 sec). Its Pb-free plating and halogen-free construction comply with RoHS and IEC61249-2-21 requirements.
What is the significance of "100% avalanche tested" for this MOSFET?
Each unit undergoes single-pulse avalanche stress testing to 40 A and 240 mJ (Table 2), verifying ruggedness against inductive switching transients and load dump events in VRM phase legs-critical for field reliability in unattended server deployments.
