Product details
Overview
BSP179H6327XTSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel depletion-mode SIPMOS® small-signal transistor rated for 400 V drain-source breakdown voltage, 24 Ω maximum RDS(on) at VGS = 0 V, and 40 mA minimum IDSS, designed for high-voltage constant-current biasing and ESD-robust signal switching in automotive lighting control and industrial sensor interface circuits.
For engineers reviewing the BSP179H6327XTSA1 datasheet, BSP179H6327XTSA1 pinout, BSP179H6327XTSA1 application, or BSP179H6327XTSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its AEC-Q101 qualification, dv/dt rating of 6 kV/µs, VGS(th) band sorting (H6327 = band J), and SOT-223 package thermal resistance of 25 K/W (junction-to-soldering point).
Technical Context
This depletion-mode MOSFET operates with gate-source voltage ranging from −3 V to 0 V for full conduction, requiring no external bias for default-on functionality. Its 400 V V(BR)DSS and 6 kV/µs dv/dt rating enable robust operation in inductive load switching and flyback snubber circuits.
The device integrates a monolithic reverse diode with 0.84–1.1 V forward voltage at 0.21 A, and exhibits dynamic parameters including 102–135 pF input capacitance, 2.2–3.3 nC Qgd, and 111–167 ns reverse recovery time - critical for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency DC-DC auxiliary supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 400 V - supports primary-side switching in 380 V AC-input offline converters |
| RDS(on) max | 24 Ω at VGS = 0 V - enables stable current sourcing up to 40 mA without gate drive |
| IDSS min | 40 mA - defines minimum on-state current for bias network design |
| VGS(th) | −2.1 to −1.4 V (band J) - ensures predictable turn-off threshold across temperature |
| dv/dt rating | 6 kV/µs - prevents spurious turn-on during fast transient voltage spikes |
| RthJS | 25 K/W - allows 1.8 W power dissipation with ≤45 °C temperature rise to solder point |
| Qgd | 2.2–3.3 nC - determines Miller plateau duration in hard-switched topologies |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-SOT223 (standardized JEDEC TO-261AA variant), 4-pin surface-mount with exposed drain pad (Pin 4) for thermal conduction. Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Source, Pin 3 = Drain (internal connection to Pad), Pin 4 = Drain (soldering point).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate | Control terminal; accepts −3 V to 0 V for depletion-mode operation |
| Pin 2 | Source | Reference node for gate drive; tied to system ground in common-source configuration |
| Pin 3 | Drain (internal) | High-voltage output node; electrically connected to Pin 4 for thermal path |
| Pin 4 | Drain (soldering point) | Thermal interface to PCB copper; reduces junction-to-ambient thermal resistance by 45 % vs. standard SOT-223 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive under-hood applications per stress test requirements |
| Depletion-mode operation | Enables fail-safe "always-on" behavior without gate bias circuitry |
| VGS(th) band marking (H6327) | Guarantees VGS(th) within −1.2 V to −1.0 V for precise current-setting networks |
| dv/dt immunity | 6 kV/µs rating eliminates need for external gate clamping in inductive snubbers |
| Halogen-free & RoHS | Complies with IEC61249-2-21 and EU Directive 2011/65/EU for green manufacturing |
Applications
| Automotive LED Tail Light Bias | Industrial Current Reference |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Constant-current bias for red/amber LED strings in vehicle rear lighting modules operating from 12 V battery with load dump transients. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Depletion-mode transistor acting as self-biasing current source, replacing discrete resistor + Zener network. Use Value: Eliminates 30 % board space vs. resistor-based bias; maintains ±5 % current stability over −40 to 125 °C due to matched VGS(th) drift. | Use Scenario: Precision 40 mA reference generator for analog sensor excitation in factory automation current-loop transmitters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Stable current sink providing fixed IDSS independent of supply voltage fluctuations between 15–400 V. Use Value: Reduces calibration drift to <0.1 %/°C vs. bipolar current sources; supports 150 °C ambient operation per AEC-Q101. |
| ESD-Protected Signal Switch | Snubberless Flyback Auxiliary Supply |
Use Scenario: High-impedance signal routing switch in CAN/LIN bus interface ICs where ESD robustness exceeds 250 V HBM. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Voltage-controlled switch isolating diagnostic lines during hot-plug events. Use Value: Withstands >250 V HBM ESD without latch-up; dv/dt immunity prevents false triggering during 1 kV EFT bursts. | Use Scenario: Self-oscillating auxiliary winding regulator in 15 W offline SMPS powering control ICs and optocouplers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Depletion-mode startup transistor enabling zero-bias operation until main controller powers up. Use Value: Removes dedicated startup resistor (saving 0.5 W loss); enables immediate regulation at VIN ≥ 85 VAC. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar depletion-mode high-voltage transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| BSP170H6327XTSA1 | Lower V(BR)DSS (250 V), higher IDSS (100 mA), same SOT-223 package | Not suitable for 400 V systems; preferred in 24 V industrial PLC I/O modules | Select when lower voltage rating and higher current are acceptable trade-offs |
| IXTP01N400P | 400 V rating, but enhancement-mode, TO-220 package, 10x higher RDS(on) (250 Ω) | Requires gate driver; unsuitable for bias networks needing zero-bias operation | Choose only if active gate control and heatsink mounting are available |
Compared with BSP170H6327XTSA1, the BSP179H6327XTSA1 provides 60 % higher voltage margin and tighter VGS(th) control; versus IXTP01N400P, it delivers true depletion-mode behavior in compact SOT-223 with 10× lower RDS(on) and no gate drive overhead.

FAQ
Is BSP179H6327XTSA1 a depletion-mode or enhancement-mode MOSFET?
BSP179H6327XTSA1 is a depletion-mode N-channel MOSFET. It conducts at VGS = 0 V, with IDSS ≥ 40 mA, and turns off only when VGS is driven negative (≤ −1.4 V). This enables zero-bias operation in current-source and fail-safe switch applications.
What does the 'H6327' suffix indicate in BSP179H6327XTSA1?
The 'H6327' denotes Infineon's tape-and-reel packaging code for 1000-piece reels and specifies VGS(th) band J (−1.2 V to −1.0 V). Band J is marked on the reel label and guarantees threshold voltage consistency for precision biasing networks.
Can BSP179H6327XTSA1 replace a Zener diode + resistor current limiter?
Yes - its depletion-mode characteristic and 40 mA IDSS allow direct substitution in constant-current bias circuits. Unlike passive solutions, it provides superior temperature stability (±0.01 %/°C vs. Zener's ±0.05 %/°C) and eliminates power loss in the limiting resistor.
Does BSP179H6327XTSA1 require a heatsink in 1.8 W operation?
No external heatsink is required. With RthJS = 25 K/W and a 40 mm × 40 mm copper area, junction temperature rise is ≤45 °C at 1.8 W. The exposed drain pad (Pin 4) serves as the primary thermal path to the PCB, meeting AEC-Q101 thermal validation limits.
