Product details
Overview
BUK7M22-80EX from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101 qualified N-channel standard-level MOSFET in LFPAK33 (SOT1210) package, rated for 80 V VDS, 22 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V VGS and 25 °C, 175 °C junction temperature, and repetitive avalanche capability - deployed in automotive transmission control and high-current solenoid switching.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7M22-80EX datasheet, BUK7M22-80EX pinout, BUK7M22-80EX application, or BUK7M22-80EX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal resistance (1.82 K/W j-mb), gate charge (23.9 nC total), avalanche energy rating (36.9 mJ), and LFPAK33 terminal mapping to support robust power stage design in 12 V–48 V automotive systems.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchMOS technology with true standard-level gate drive (VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C), enabling direct microcontroller interface without level-shifting. Its drain-connected mounting base provides low-inductance, high-current return path and efficient heat transfer to PCB copper.
The device features integrated source-drain diode with 0.83 V forward voltage at 10 A and 25.8 ns reverse recovery time, supporting synchronous rectification and freewheeling in inductive load circuits. Repetitive avalanche rating ensures reliability under transient overvoltage events common in automotive load-dump conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 80 V maximum - supports 48 V automotive architectures with margin against load dump transients up to ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a. |
| RDS(on) | 18–22 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 37 A continuous current with minimal heatsinking. |
| ID | 37 A continuous at Tmb = 25 °C - sustains high-current motor/solenoid drive with derating to 26 A at 100 °C mounting base. |
| EAS | 36.9 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy - withstands unclamped inductive switching events without failure when properly biased. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 1.82 K/W typical - allows direct thermal coupling to PCB copper pour or heatsink, enabling compact 175 °C-rated operation. |
| QG(tot) | 23.9 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~2.4 A peak for 10 ns rise time with 5 Ω external resistor). |
| Ciss | 1235–1643 pF - impacts high-frequency switching losses and EMI behavior in PWM-driven loads. |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK33 (SOT1210) is a thermally enhanced surface-mount package with exposed drain mounting base and three parallel source terminals for low-inductance, high-current routing. The 4-pin configuration integrates mechanical robustness and thermal performance for automotive under-hood deployment.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three paralleled source terminals reduce package inductance and resistive drop; enable high-current return path routing on PCB. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 5.7 nC QGS; requires stable 10 V drive for full RDS(on) specification and fast turn-on. |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain (D) | Exposed copper pad electrically connected to drain - serves as primary thermal path and high-current output node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive-grade reliability across -55 °C to 175 °C operating range and lifetime vibration/thermal cycling stress. |
| Repetitive avalanche rating | Enables safe operation during repeated inductive turn-off events without external snubbers in transmission valve drivers. |
| 175 °C junction rating | Permits placement near hot engine components without derating penalties - critical for under-hood ECUs and body controllers. |
| Standard-level gate threshold | VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V MCU GPIOs, eliminating need for gate drivers in many applications. |
| Low Rth(j-mb) | 1.82 K/W thermal resistance enables >70 W dissipation on 25 °C board - reduces need for external heatsinks in space-constrained modules. |
Applications
| Transmission Solenoid Control | Engine Cooling Fan Drive |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-duty-cycle PWM control of hydraulic solenoids in 8-speed automatic transmissions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side or low-side power switch managing 15–25 A peak solenoid currents with 10–50 kHz switching. Use Value: 22 mΩ RDS(on) minimizes I²R heating during sustained actuation; 36.9 mJ avalanche rating absorbs back-EMF spikes during rapid de-energization. |

| Start-Stop System Battery Switch | 48 V Mild Hybrid DC-DC Converter |
|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional battery disconnect switch in 12 V start-stop systems handling cranking surges up to 147 A peak. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-current, low-RDS(on) power switch placed between starter battery and auxiliary loads. Use Value: 147 A pulsed current rating and 37 A continuous current support cold-cranking loads; LFPAK33's low-inductance layout suppresses voltage overshoot during fast turn-off. |
Use Scenario: Synchronous rectifier in 48 V–12 V bidirectional DC-DC converter for mild hybrid power distribution. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side MOSFET in synchronous buck topology operating at 200–500 kHz with zero-voltage switching. Use Value: 25.8 ns trr and 33.5 nC Qr minimize reverse recovery losses; integrated source-drain diode enables cost-effective synchronous rectification without discrete Schottky. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel automotive power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40 V VDS, 0.75 mΩ RDS(on), PowerFLAT 5x6 package, 175 °C rated | Limited to 40 V systems; superior RDS(on) but lower voltage headroom for 48 V transients | Select only for 24 V or lower automotive subsystems where ultra-low conduction loss outweighs voltage margin needs. |
| IRF3207PBF | 75 V VDS, 3.5 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220AB package, 175 °C rated, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Larger footprint, higher thermal resistance (1.25 K/W j-case), no automotive qualification | Acceptable for industrial 12 V/24 V motor drives but unsuitable for production automotive ECUs requiring AEC-Q101 compliance. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IRF3207PBF, BUK7M22-80EX uniquely balances 80 V voltage margin, AEC-Q101 qualification, LFPAK33 thermal efficiency, and standard-level gate compatibility - making it the only option qualified for safety-critical 48 V automotive power switching where both reliability and compact layout are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C mounting base temperature?
The BUK7M22-80EX supports 26 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 100 °C, as specified in Table 5 (Limiting values) and confirmed by Fig. 2 in the datasheet. This derating reflects thermal constraints of the LFPAK33 package and ensures safe operation within the 175 °C maximum junction temperature limit.
Is the mounting base electrically isolated from the drain terminal?
No - the mounting base (mb) is internally connected to the drain (D) terminal, as explicitly stated in Table 2 (Pinning information) and shown in the simplified outline graphic. This configuration enables direct thermal conduction to the PCB while requiring appropriate isolation of the drain net from other circuit potentials.
Can this MOSFET be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - its VGS(th) remains >1 V even at 175 °C junction temperature, and it achieves usable RDS(on) down to ~40 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V (Fig. 7). However, for full 22 mΩ performance and optimal switching speed, a 10 V gate drive is required per datasheet test conditions.
What is the significance of the "standard level" gate designation?
"Standard level" means the MOSFET is designed for direct drive by conventional 10 V logic or automotive MCU outputs without requiring gate boosters. Unlike "logic-level" devices optimized for 5 V, it maintains sufficient VGS(th) margin (>1 V) at extreme temperatures, ensuring robust turn-on in harsh automotive environments.
