Product details
Overview
BUK7210-55B,118 from Nexperia is a standard-level N-channel TrenchMOS FET in DPAK (SOT428) package, rated for 55 V VDS, 75 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C, and 8.5 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and Tj = 25 °C. It is AEC-Q101 qualified, rated to 185 °C junction temperature, and designed for automotive critical power switching including 12 V/24 V loads, solenoids, and lamps.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7210-55B,118 datasheet, BUK7210-55B,118 pinout, BUK7210-55B,118 application, or BUK7210-55B,118 equivalent, this device supports high-current, thermally demanding automotive power control where low conduction loss, avalanche ruggedness (173 mJ), and mounting-base thermal management (Rth(j-mb) = 0.95 K/W) are essential design requirements.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses Nexperia's High-Performance Automotive (HPA) TrenchMOS technology to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining robust gate oxide integrity and stable threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2–4 V at 25 °C, 0.9–1.75 V at 175–185 °C). Its unclamped inductive switching capability is validated with 173 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy under defined test conditions (ID = 75 A, Vsup ≤ 55 V, RGS = 50 Ω).
The device features a thermally optimized DPAK package with the mounting base electrically connected to the drain, enabling direct heatsinking. Internal parasitics are tightly controlled: LD = 2.5 nH, LS = 7.5 nH, Ciss = 1840–2453 pF, and fast switching performance (td(on) = 18 ns, tr = 91 ns, td(off) = 48 ns, tf = 45 ns) at VDS = 25 V and RG(ext) = 10 Ω.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines safe operation in 12 V/24 V automotive systems with load-dump transients. |
| RDS(on) | 8.5 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 40 A, reducing thermal stress in high-current switches. |
| ID (cont) | 75 A at Tmb = 25 °C - Package-limited continuous current; derates to 65.5 A at Tmb = 100 °C per SOA curve. |
| EAS | 173 mJ - Non-repetitive avalanche energy rating; supports reliable operation during inductive turn-off without external snubbers in motor/solenoid drives. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.95 K/W - Junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance; enables efficient heat transfer to PCB copper or heatsink when mounted via exposed drain pad. |
| VGS(th) | 2–4 V (25 °C), 0.9–1.75 V (175–185 °C) - Threshold voltage range ensures gate drive compatibility with standard 5 V or 12 V logic while maintaining turn-on margin at high temperature. |
| QG(tot) | 35 nC (typ) - Total gate charge at VDS = 44 V, VGS = 10 V; determines driver strength requirement and switching loss trade-off. |
Pinout & Package
BUK7210-55B,118 is housed in a plastic DPAK (SOT428 / SC-63) surface-mount package with three leads (one cropped), featuring an exposed mounting base electrically tied to the drain terminal for enhanced thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; requires ≥10 V drive for full enhancement; gate leakage <100 nA at ±20 V ensures low standby power. |
| 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; internally connected to mounting base; must be soldered to thermal pad for rated power handling. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return path; referenced to system ground in low-side switch configurations; source inductance = 7.5 nH affects switching ringing. |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain (tie) | Electrically and thermally connected to drain; provides primary thermal path to PCB; no electrical isolation from pin 2. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive safety-critical applications including engine control, body electronics, and ADAS power stages. |
| 185 °C junction rating | Supports operation in under-hood environments without derating below ambient extremes; extends lifetime in thermally constrained layouts. |
| Low RDS(on) × QG figure-of-merit | ~300 Ω·nC - Balances conduction and switching losses for high-efficiency 12 V/24 V DC-DC and load-switching topologies. |
| Robust source-drain diode | VSD = 0.73–0.85 V at IS = 18 A, Tj = 25–185 °C; trr = 67 ns, Qr = 65 nC - Enables freewheeling in inductive loads with minimal reverse recovery loss. |
| High peak current capability | IDM = 335 A (10 µs pulse) - Supports short-duration surge currents during motor startup or lamp inrush without failure. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N5LF8AG | 60 V VDS, 220 A ID, 1.6 mΩ RDS(on), PowerFLAT 5x6 package, 175 °C rating | Higher current and lower RDS(on), but larger footprint and higher gate charge (120 nC); requires more robust gate driver. | Select when >100 A continuous current or <2 mΩ conduction loss is required; not drop-in due to different package and drive needs. |
| IRF1404ZPBF | 40 V VDS, 184 A ID, 3.8 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220AB package, 175 °C rating | Lower voltage rating limits use to 12 V systems only; through-hole mounting increases assembly cost and reduces thermal efficiency vs. DPAK. | Choose for legacy 12 V designs where TO-220 form factor is mandated and 40 V blocking suffices; lacks AEC-Q101 qualification. |
Compared with STL220N5LF8AG and IRF1404ZPBF, BUK7210-55B,118 offers optimal balance of 55 V rating, AEC-Q101 compliance, DPAK thermal performance, and moderate gate drive demand-making it ideal for new automotive power modules where space, qualification, and 24 V compatibility are critical.

FAQ
Is BUK7210-55B,118 suitable for high-side switching configurations?
No-BUK7210-55B,118 is a standard-level (not logic-level) N-channel MOSFET requiring VGS ≥10 V for full enhancement. In high-side configurations, gate drive must exceed the drain voltage by ≥10 V, necessitating a floating supply or charge pump. It is optimized for low-side switching where source is grounded.
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for thermal performance?
While not specified as a fixed area, Nexperia recommends using ≥250 mm² of 2 oz copper connected to the mounting base (drain) for optimal Rth(j-mb) = 0.95 K/W. Larger copper areas further reduce thermal resistance, but diminishing returns occur beyond ~500 mm² unless multiple thermal vias are used.
Does BUK7210-55B,118 require an external flyback diode when driving inductive loads?
No external diode is strictly required-the integrated source-drain diode has trr = 67 ns and Qr = 65 nC, making it suitable for moderate-frequency PWM inductive switching. However, for high-frequency (>20 kHz) or high-energy recovery applications, an external Schottky diode may improve efficiency and reduce EMI.
How does RDS(on) change over temperature and gate voltage?
RDS(on) increases with junction temperature: 8.5 mΩ at 25 °C rises to 20.8 mΩ at 185 °C (VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A). It also degrades significantly below VGS = 8 V-e.g., at VGS = 5 V, RDS(on) exceeds 30 mΩ even at 25 °C-so stable 10 V gate drive is essential for low-loss operation.
