Product details
Overview
BUK7Y12-100EX from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101 qualified N-channel standard-level MOSFET in LFPAK56 (SOT669) package, rated for 100 V drain-source voltage, 12 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 VGS/25 °C, and 85 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C. It serves as a high-reliability power switch in automotive transmission control and solenoid drivers where thermal robustness up to 175 °C junction temperature and repetitive avalanche capability are critical.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7Y12-100EX datasheet, BUK7Y12-100EX pinout, BUK7Y12-100EX application, or BUK7Y12-100EX equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, LFPAK56 terminal mapping, automotive-grade thermal performance data, and real-world switching use cases - all aligned with Nexperia's official 2013 product data sheet.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs TrenchMOS technology to achieve low on-resistance while maintaining stable gate threshold voltage (>1 V at 175 °C) and true standard-level gate drive compatibility. Its LFPAK56 package integrates a thermally optimized mounting base directly connected to the drain, enabling 0.63 K/W junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance.
The device supports unclamped inductive switching with 139 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (ID = 85 A, Vsup ≤ 100 V), and features fast switching dynamics: 12 ns turn-on delay, 66 ns turn-off delay, and 21 nC gate-drain charge under 10 VGS/25 A/80 VDS conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V maximum - supports 48 V automotive systems with margin against load dump transients |
| RDS(on) | 8.1–12 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables low conduction loss in high-current motor/solenoid drivers |
| ID (continuous) | 85 A at Tmb = 25 °C - delivers high power density when mounted on copper PCB areas or heatsinks |
| Ptot | 238 W at Tmb = 25 °C - reflects high thermal efficiency of LFPAK56's exposed drain pad |
| Rth(j-mb) | 0.63 K/W - allows direct thermal coupling to chassis or heatsink without intermediate interface materials |
| QGD | 21 nC - determines Miller plateau duration during hard-switching, critical for gate driver sizing |
| EAS | 139 mJ (unclamped, single-pulse) - validates ruggedness in inductive load switching without external snubbers |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK56 (SOT669) is a surface-mount plastic package with 4 leads and an exposed metal mounting base (drain-connected). Its footprint matches Power-SO8 but offers superior thermal and power handling via direct die-to-base thermal path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel source terminals reduce bond wire inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 3 V typical VGS(th); compatible with 5 V and 12 V microcontroller outputs |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain (D) | Exposed copper pad electrically and thermally connected to drain - must be soldered to PCB copper pour for thermal and electrical performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive underhood environments including temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per JESD47 |
| Repetitive avalanche rating | Enables reliable operation in unclamped inductive switching (e.g., transmission solenoids) without derating |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Permits operation in engine bay locations without forced cooling or oversized heatsinks |
| True standard-level gate | VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C ensures predictable turn-on even at extreme temperatures |
| Low QGD/QG ratio | 21 nC / 68 nC ≈ 0.31 - improves switching efficiency and reduces risk of false turn-on during high dv/dt events |
Applications
| Transmission Control Module | Solenoid Driver Unit |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N10F7 | 100 V, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on), 200 A ID, H2PAK-2 package, 175 °C rated | Higher current capacity and lower RDS(on), but larger footprint and higher gate charge (120 nC) | Preferred for high-power fans or dual-solenoid drivers requiring >100 A capability and board space for larger thermal pad |
| IRF1404ZPBF | 40 V, 20 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220AB package, non-AEC-Q101, 175 °C rated | Lower voltage rating and no automotive qualification; lacks repetitive avalanche rating | Suitable only for non-safety-critical 12 V industrial controls where AEC-Q101 compliance is not required |
Compared with STL220N10F7, BUK7Y12-100EX trades raw current density for compact LFPAK56 integration and lower gate drive demand; versus IRF1404ZPBF, it adds AEC-Q101 validation, avalanche ruggedness, and tighter RDS(on) tolerance - essential for production automotive ECUs.

FAQ
Is BUK7Y12-100EX pin-compatible with other LFPAK56 MOSFETs?
Yes - BUK7Y12-100EX uses the standard SOT669 footprint with pins 1–3 as source, pin 4 as gate, and the mounting base as drain. All Nexperia LFPAK56 automotive MOSFETs share identical mechanical dimensions and terminal assignments, enabling drop-in replacement within the same voltage/current class.
What is the maximum allowable PCB copper area for thermal performance?
The datasheet specifies optimal thermal performance when the mounting base is soldered to ≥ 100 mm² of 2 oz copper on the top layer, connected via ≥ 6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) to internal or bottom-layer ground planes. This configuration achieves the rated 0.63 K/W Rth(j-mb).
Does BUK7Y12-100EX require a gate resistor for automotive EMI compliance?
Yes - a 5 Ω external gate resistor is recommended (per Fig. 4 test condition) to limit di/dt during switching and suppress high-frequency ringing. This value balances EMI reduction with acceptable 66 ns turn-off delay and avoids excessive gate drive power dissipation in 12 V systems.
Can BUK7Y12-100EX replace older BUK7Y12-100E parts in existing designs?
Yes - BUK7Y12-100EX is a direct revision of BUK7Y12-100E with identical electrical specifications, package, pinout, and qualification status. The 'X' suffix denotes updated wafer fabrication process and enhanced traceability; no layout or schematic changes are needed for migration.
