Product details
Overview
BUK652R6-40C from Nexperia is an N-channel TrenchMOS FET designed for high-current automotive power switching, featuring 40 V VDS, 2.32 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and Tj = 25 °C, 120 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C, 175 °C junction temperature rating, and AEC-Q101 qualification - deployed in electric power steering and transmission control modules.
For engineers reviewing the BUK652R6-40C datasheet, BUK652R6-40C pinout, BUK652R6-40C application, or BUK652R6-40C equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance under 10 V gate drive, avalanche energy rating of 637 mJ, thermal resistance of 0.57 K/W (junction-to-mounting base), and TO-220AB package suitability for thermally demanding 12 V/24 V automotive systems.
Technical Context
This device uses advanced TrenchMOS technology to achieve ultra-low RDS(on) while maintaining robust avalanche ruggedness and stable threshold voltage across -55 °C to 175 °C. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 1.8 V to 2.8 V at 25 °C and remains functional down to 0.8 V at 175 °C, enabling reliable turn-on with standard and logic-level gate drivers.
The integrated source-drain diode supports freewheeling in inductive loads, with VSD = 0.85 V typical at 25 A and reverse recovery time (trr) of 60 ns. Dynamic parameters include QG(tot) = 199 nC at 10 V and Ciss = 8501 pF, indicating optimized switching behavior for high-frequency PWM control in motor and solenoid applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum - supports full operation in 24 V automotive systems with margin against load dump transients. |
| RDS(on) | 2.32 mΩ typical at VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1 W conduction loss at 20 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| ID | 120 A continuous at Tmb = 25 °C - rated for high-power motor and lamp loads without derating at ambient mounting conditions. |
| EAS | 637 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy - withstands unclamped inductive switching events common in solenoid and transmission control. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.57 K/W - allows efficient heat transfer to external heatsink, supporting sustained 100+ A operation with proper thermal design. |
| VGS(th) | 1.8–2.8 V at 25 °C - ensures compatibility with both 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller outputs without level-shifting. |
| trr | 60 ns - minimizes switching losses and EMI during diode commutation in H-bridge and buck configurations. |
Pinout & Package
BUK652R6-40C is housed in a SOT78A (TO-220AB) plastic single-ended package with heatsink mounting, 1 mounting hole, and 3 leads. The mounting base is electrically connected to the drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Controls channel conduction; requires ≤16 V DC drive; gate leakage <100 nA ensures low standby power. |
| 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side power path; electrically tied to mounting base - must be isolated from heatsink unless system ground reference permits. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return path; referenced to gate drive; internal source inductance of 7.5 nH impacts high-speed switching layout. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, humidity testing, and mechanical shock - suitable for safety-critical EPS and transmission modules. |
| 175 °C junction rating | Enables operation in engine bay environments without thermal derating, extending lifetime in thermally constrained enclosures. |
| Logic-level compatible | Turns on fully with 4.5 V gate drive (RDS(on) ≤ 4.5 mΩ), eliminating need for dedicated gate drivers in MCU-based control units. |
| TrenchMOS architecture | Delivers 30% lower RDS(on) vs planar MOSFETs at same die size - improves power density and reduces conduction losses in compact ECUs. |
| High avalanche ruggedness | 637 mJ EAS supports robust operation during inductive kickback in solenoid valves and brushed DC motors without external snubbers. |

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, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on), 200 A ID, DFN5x6 package - no mounting base, higher current but lower thermal mass. | Preferred for space-constrained PCBs where heatsinking is via board copper; not suited for bolted heatsink interfaces. | Select when footprint and weight are critical and thermal interface is via PCB, not mechanical heatsink. |
| IRF1404ZPBF | 40 V, 3.8 mΩ RDS(on), 195 A ID, TO-220AB - higher RDS(on), lower avalanche rating (320 mJ), legacy planar process. | Used in cost-sensitive industrial motor drives; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification and 175 °C rating. | Select only for non-automotive applications where qualification and extended temperature range are not required. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRF1404ZPBF, BUK652R6-40C uniquely balances AEC-Q101 compliance, 0.57 K/W thermal resistance, and 637 mJ avalanche capability - making it the only option qualified for thermally aggressive, safety-critical automotive power switching where bolted heatsink attachment is mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for BUK652R6-40C?
The BUK652R6-40C supports 120 A continuous drain current at mounting base temperature (Tmb) of 25 °C, as specified in Figure 1 of the datasheet. This rating is package-limited and decreases with rising Tmb; at Tmb = 100 °C, the device still sustains 120 A due to its optimized thermal design. The BUK652R6-40C achieves this performance using TrenchMOS technology and a low Rth(j-mb) of 0.57 K/W.
Is BUK652R6-40C suitable for logic-level gate drive applications?
Yes, the BUK652R6-40C is explicitly designed for standard and logic-level gate drive sources. At VGS = 4.5 V and Tj = 25 °C, RDS(on) is guaranteed ≤4.5 mΩ, enabling full enhancement with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers. Its VGS(th) range (1.8–2.8 V at 25 °C) ensures predictable turn-on without external level-shifting circuitry - a key feature confirmed in Table 6 of the BUK652R6-40C datasheet.
What is the avalanche energy rating of BUK652R6-40C and how is it tested?
The BUK652R6-40C has a non-repetitive drain-source avalanche energy (EDS(AL)S) rating of 637 mJ, measured under conditions of ID = 120 A, Vsup ≤40 V, RGS = 50 Ω, VGS = 10 V, and Tj(init) = 25 °C in unclamped inductive switching. This value is verified per JEDEC standards and reflects robustness against inductive kickback in solenoid and motor control - a critical parameter documented in Tables 1 and 4 of the BUK652R6-40C product data sheet.
Does BUK652R6-40C have automotive qualification?
Yes, the BUK652R6-40C is AEC-Q101 qualified and designed specifically for high-performance automotive applications. It meets the stress test requirements for temperature cycling, humidity, mechanical shock, and high-temperature operating life. The device is rated for junction temperatures up to 175 °C and is used in electric power steering, transmission control, and start-stop systems - all confirmed in Section 1.1 and Table 4 of the official BUK652R6-40C datasheet.
What package type does BUK652R6-40C use and how is thermal management implemented?
The BUK652R6-40C uses the SOT78A (TO-220AB) package - a plastic single-ended package with a metal mounting base electrically connected to the drain. Thermal management relies on direct bolting of the mounting base to an external heatsink, achieving a low Rth(j-mb) of 0.57 K/W. This configuration is essential for dissipating up to 263 W total power at Tmb = 25 °C, as defined in Figure 2 and Table 5 of the BUK652R6-40C datasheet.
