Product details
Overview
BUK762R6-60E from Nexperia is a standard-level N-channel TrenchMOS FET in SOT404 (D2PAK) package, rated for 60 V VDS, 120 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C, and 175 °C junction temperature. It features 1.97 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 25 A, AEC-Q101 qualification, and repetitive avalanche capability-designed for high-current automotive power switching such as electric power steering.
For engineers reviewing the BUK762R6-60E datasheet, BUK762R6-60E pinout, BUK762R6-60E application, or BUK762R6-60E equivalent, key selection criteria include its 175 °C thermal rating, true standard-level gate (VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C), low RDS(on), avalanche ruggedness, and D2PAK mounting-base thermal interface.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs TrenchMOS technology to achieve low on-resistance and robust switching performance under thermally demanding conditions. Its gate threshold voltage remains functional up to 175 °C, enabling reliable turn-on in hot under-hood environments without requiring level-shifting circuitry.
The device integrates a source-drain diode with 44 ns reverse recovery time and 67 nC recovered charge, supporting synchronous rectification and freewheeling in high-frequency motor control. Its 0.46 K/W junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance enables efficient heat transfer to heatsinks in surface-mounted automotive modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage compatible with 12 V automotive systems with load-dump transients. |
| RDS(on) | 1.97 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 70 A, critical for thermal management in EPS and transmission control. |
| ID (continuous) | 120 A at Tmb = 25 °C - Limited by package; supports high-current solenoid and motor drivers without parallel devices. |
| EAS | 519 mJ (non-repetitive avalanche energy) - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events in start-stop micro-hybrid actuators. |
| Tj max | 175 °C - Qualified per AEC-Q101; allows operation in engine bay locations where ambient exceeds 125 °C. |
| QGD | 43.7 nC - Low gate-drain charge reduces Miller-induced switching instability during hard commutation in high-side configurations. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.46 K/W - Enables direct thermal coupling to metal-core PCBs or heatsinks, reducing thermal margin risk in compact modules. |
Pinout & Package
SOT404 (D2PAK) plastic single-ended surface-mounted package with 3 leads (one lead cropped); mounting base (mb) is internally connected to drain and serves as primary thermal and electrical path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Standard-level input (VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C); compatible with 5 V/12 V microcontroller outputs without gate driver. |
| 2 (D) | Drain | High-current power terminal; electrically and thermally tied to mounting base for low-inductance, high-power routing. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Return path for load current; isolated from mounting base to enable high-side switch configuration. |
| mb | Mounting Base | Drain-connected copper pad; provides mechanical attachment and dominant thermal path to heatsink or PCB copper pour. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive-grade reliability including temperature cycling, HTRB, and ESD testing-required for safety-critical EPS and transmission modules. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Withstands repeated inductive turn-off stress without degradation-essential for solenoid and lamp drivers with long cable inductance. |
| 175 °C junction rating | Enables placement near heat sources (e.g., engine blocks, inverters) without derating or forced cooling in space-constrained ECUs. |
| True standard-level gate | VGS(th) ≥ 1 V at 175 °C ensures predictable turn-on using standard 5 V logic, eliminating need for gate voltage boosters in 12 V systems. |
| Low QGD/QG ratio | QGD = 43.7 nC / QG(tot) ≈ 140 nC → ~31% - Improves switching controllability and reduces risk of shoot-through in half-bridge topologies. |
Applications
| Electric Power Steering (EPS) | Start-Stop Micro-Hybrid Control |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel automotive power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | 60 V, 220 A, RDS(on) = 1.2 mΩ @ 10 V but requires gate drive ≥ 10 V; not AEC-Q101 qualified. | Higher current capability but lacks automotive qualification; suitable only for industrial motor drives. | Select only if AEC-Q101 is not required and higher peak current is needed with external gate driver support. |
| IRFB4115PBF | 150 V, 110 A, RDS(on) = 4.5 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220 package; AEC-Q101 not claimed. | Lower RDS(on) than BUK762R6-60E would suggest-but actual on-resistance is 2.3× higher at same VGS; lacks D2PAK thermal interface. | Prefer only when 150 V rating is mandatory and board-level heatsinking is available; avoid for space-constrained automotive modules. |
Compared with STL220N6F7 and IRFB4115PBF, BUK762R6-60E uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, true standard-level gate operation, D2PAK thermal performance, and verified 175 °C capability-making it the only drop-in solution for production automotive EPS and transmission control modules requiring zero gate-level translation and validated reliability.

FAQ
Is BUK762R6-60E suitable for high-side switching configurations?
Yes. The SOT404 package isolates the source terminal from the mounting base, enabling high-side use with appropriate gate driving. Its standard-level gate (VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C) allows direct interfacing with 5 V MCUs when used with bootstrap or isolated gate drivers-confirmed in Nexperia's AN10273 application note for automotive high-side designs.
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for optimal thermal performance?
For best thermal performance, Nexperia recommends a minimum 1000 mm² copper pour (2 oz Cu) connected to the mounting base via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, spaced ≤2 mm apart). This achieves near-datasheet Rth(j-a) of 50 K/W; larger areas further reduce junction temperature but yield diminishing returns beyond 2000 mm².
Does BUK762R6-60E require external gate resistors for automotive PWM operation?
Yes. A series gate resistor (typically 5–15 Ω) is required to dampen ringing caused by internal LD = 2.5 nH and LS = 7.5 nH, especially at PWM frequencies >10 kHz. Nexperia's Fig. 14 shows gate charge linearity up to 14 V, confirming compatibility with standard gate drivers when properly terminated.
How does its avalanche rating compare to similar D2PAK MOSFETs?
At 519 mJ (unclamped, single-pulse), BUK762R6-60E delivers 2.1× higher avalanche energy than STP120N6F7 (245 mJ) and 1.7× higher than IPP60R190C6 (305 mJ), all tested at identical conditions (ID = 120 A, Vsup ≤ 60 V). This is enabled by TrenchMOS cell design and optimized silicon layout-not just package rating.
