Product details
Overview
BUK7Y3R5-40HX from Nexperia is an automotive-qualified N-channel MOSFET using Trench 9 superjunction technology in LFPAK56 (SOT669) package, rated for 40 V VDS, 3.5 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V VGS, 120 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C, and 175 °C junction temperature - deployed in 12 V start-stop micro-hybrid transmission control.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7Y3R5-40HX datasheet, BUK7Y3R5-40HX pinout, BUK7Y3R5-40HX application, or BUK7Y3R5-40HX equivalent, key selection criteria include AEC-Q101 qualification, LFPAK56 thermal performance (Rth(j-mb) = 1.18 K/W), tight VGS(th) limits (2.4–3.6 V), avalanche ruggedness (45 mJ), and gate charge profile (QG(tot) = 31–53 nC).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Trench 9 superjunction architecture to achieve reduced cell pitch, enabling lower RDS(on) (2.9 mΩ typ at 25 °C) and improved safe operating area versus prior TrenchMOS generations. Its 175 °C rating supports operation in thermally constrained engine-bay environments without derating penalties typical of standard-level devices.
The LFPAK56 package integrates copper clip interconnects and gull-wing leads to minimize parasitic inductance and thermal resistance while enabling AOI-compatible solder inspection. Mounting base (drain-connected) provides direct thermal path to PCB copper, with normalized power derating down to 0% at Tmb = 200 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum - supports full 12 V automotive battery transient margin (ISO 7637-2 Pulse 5a up to 40 V) without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) | 3.5 mΩ max at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A, Tj = 25 °C - enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 60 A, critical for high-efficiency solenoid drivers. |
| ID (cont) | 120 A at Tmb = 25 °C - validated in application tests; real-world limit set by PCB copper area and thermal interface design. |
| EAS | 45 mJ non-repetitive avalanche energy - withstands inductive kickback from 12 V lamp/motor loads without snubber circuitry. |
| QG(tot) | 53 nC max - determines gate driver power requirement; compatible with standard 1 A peak gate drivers for <1 µs switching transitions. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 1.3 K/W max - enables >90 W dissipation with 120 °C ΔT between junction and mounting base, supporting compact heatsinkless designs. |
| VGS(th) | 2.4–3.6 V at Tj = 25 °C - tight distribution allows stable parallel operation without current imbalance. |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK56 (SOT669) is a 4-terminal surface-mount package with exposed copper mounting base (drain-connected), optimized for low-inductance, high-current automotive applications. It features gull-wing leads for mechanical stress absorption and AOI-friendly solder joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel source terminals reduce bond wire inductance and improve current sharing; connected internally to source metallization. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 0.32–2 Ω intrinsic gate resistance - sets minimum gate drive strength requirement and dV/dt immunity. |
| Mounting Base | Drain (D) | Exposed copper pad electrically and thermally connected to drain; requires PCB copper pour for thermal management and current return path. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Fully tested to automotive reliability standards including HTGB, HTRB, TC, and UHAST - ensures >15-year field life in under-hood environments. |
| Trench 9 superjunction | Enables 3.5 mΩ RDS(on) in LFPAK56 footprint - delivers 2× power density vs. legacy TrenchMOS, reducing board space in multi-MOSFET modules. |
| LFPAK copper clip | Reduces RDS(on) by 15% and Rth(j-mb) by 20% vs. wire-bonded equivalents - improves current capability and thermal response during pulsed load events. |
| Soft reverse recovery diode | S-factor = 0.8 typ - suppresses voltage overshoot during inductive turn-off, eliminating need for external freewheeling diodes in lamp/solenoid drivers. |
| Gull-wing leads | Enables visual AOI inspection without X-ray - reduces manufacturing cost and increases first-pass yield in high-volume automotive PCB assembly. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | 40 V, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on), PowerFLAT 5x6 package, Rth(j-mb) = 1.5 K/W, QG(tot) = 65 nC | Higher gate charge increases driver losses; larger footprint limits layout density in space-constrained EPS modules. | Prefer when lower RDS(on) outweighs thermal resistance penalty and board area is available. |
| ONsemi NTMFS5C673NL | 40 V, 3.7 mΩ RDS(on), SO-8FL package, Rth(j-mb) = 1.4 K/W, QG(tot) = 48 nC | SO-8FL lacks mounting base thermal path; relies on PCB copper for heat removal, limiting sustained current to ~90 A. | Choose only for non-automotive industrial use where AEC-Q101 is not required and thermal budget permits. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and NTMFS5C673NL, BUK7Y3R5-40HX delivers superior thermal performance (1.18 K/W), tighter VGS(th) distribution for paralleling, and proven AEC-Q101 compliance - making it optimal for high-reliability, high-power-density automotive power stages where junction temperature control and avalanche robustness are critical.

FAQ
Is BUK7Y3R5-40HX pin-compatible with other LFPAK56 MOSFETs?
Yes - BUK7Y3R5-40HX uses the standard SOT669 (LFPAK56) 4-pin outline with pins 1–3 as source, pin 4 as gate, and mounting base as drain. This matches all Nexperia LFPAK56 N-channel MOSFETs, enabling drop-in replacement within the same voltage/current class when thermal and gate drive requirements align.
What is the maximum recommended gate drive voltage?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V per datasheet limiting values. For reliable operation, drive voltage should be limited to 10 V to 15 V - 10 V ensures full enhancement and minimal RDS(on), while 15 V remains within safe margin and avoids accelerated gate oxide degradation observed above 16 V in prolonged operation.
Does BUK7Y3R5-40HX require a gate resistor for automotive EMI compliance?
Yes - a 5 Ω external gate resistor is specified in the datasheet for switching characterization (Fig. 3, Fig. 13). This value balances switching speed (tr = 8 ns, tf = 9 ns) and dV/dt control to meet CISPR 25 Class 5 radiated emissions limits in 12 V systems without adding ferrite beads or RC snubbers.
Can BUK7Y3R5-40HX be used in synchronous rectification?
No - BUK7Y3R5-40HX is a standard-level (not logic-level) MOSFET with VGS(th) min of 2.4 V. Its gate threshold requires ≥10 V for low RDS(on); it lacks the low-threshold design needed for self-driven synchronous rectification in 3.3 V or 5 V output rails.
