Product details
Overview
BUK7Y98-80EX from Nexperia is an AEC-Q101-qualified N-channel TrenchMOS power MOSFET in LFPAK56 (SOT669) package, rated for 80 V VDS, 98 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 V VGS and 25 °C, and 175 °C junction operation. It delivers 12.3 A continuous drain current at Tmb = 25 °C and supports repetitive avalanche events - deployed in automotive transmission control, solenoid drivers, and 12–48 V power switching.
For engineers reviewing the BUK7Y98-80EX datasheet, BUK7Y98-80EX pinout, BUK7Y98-80EX application, or BUK7Y98-80EX equivalent, key selection criteria include its standard-level gate drive (VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C), 4.03 K/W junction-to-mounting-base thermal resistance, and true automotive-grade ruggedness per ISO/TS 16949-aligned qualification.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses TrenchMOS technology to achieve low on-resistance with high thermal robustness. Its gate threshold voltage remains functional up to 175 °C, enabling reliable operation in under-hood environments without gate driver derating.
The device features a monolithic source-drain diode with 18.1 ns reverse recovery time and 15.8 nC recovered charge, supporting fast-switching DC-DC and motor commutation. Mounting base (drain-connected) enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper or heatsinks, reducing system thermal impedance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 80 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; supports 48 V automotive systems with 1.67× safety margin over nominal rail. |
| RDS(on) | 70–98 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 5 A, Tj = 25 °C - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 5 A, critical for thermally constrained modules. |
| ID (continuous) | 12.3 A @ Tmb = 25 °C - Sustains full-load current in compact surface-mount layouts when mounted on ≥2 oz Cu with thermal vias. |
| EAS | 9.02 mJ - Non-repetitive avalanche energy rating ensures single-event fault tolerance in inductive load switching. |
| Rth(j-mb) | 4.03 K/W - Low thermal resistance from junction to mounting base allows efficient heat transfer to PCB, reducing need for external heatsinks. |
| QGD | 3 nC - Gate-drain charge determines Miller plateau duration; enables clean turn-off in high-dV/dt environments like motor phase legs. |
| VGS(th) | >1 V @ Tj = 175 °C - Ensures guaranteed turn-on with standard 5 V or 3.3 V logic-level gate drivers even at peak temperature. |
Pinout & Package
LFPAK56 (SOT669) is a 4-lead plastic surface-mount package with exposed mounting base (drain-connected) for enhanced thermal performance. The footprint matches Power-SO8 but offers lower Rth(j-mb) and higher power density than SO-8.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 | Source (S) | Three parallel source terminals reduce bond wire inductance and improve current sharing; directly connects to PCB ground plane. |
| 4 | Gate (G) | Single gate input with 8.5 nC total gate charge; compatible with standard MOSFET drivers without requiring gate boosters. |
| Mounting Base (mb) | Drain (D) | Exposed copper pad electrically connected to drain; serves as primary thermal path and high-current return node. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive use per stress test requirements including HTOL, TC, UHAST, and ESD - eliminates requalification effort for Tier 1 designs. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for repeated unclamped inductive switching events without degradation - enables simplified protection circuitry in solenoid and relay drivers. |
| 175 °C maximum junction temperature | Supports operation in engine bay or transmission control units where ambient exceeds 125 °C - avoids thermal shutdown in sustained load conditions. |
| Standard-level gate drive | VGS(th) > 1 V at 175 °C ensures compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers and ASICs without level-shifting or gate boosting. |
| Low QGD/QG ratio | 3 nC / 8.5 nC ≈ 0.35 - improves immunity to false turn-on during high dV/dt commutation, critical in half-bridge motor control. |
Applications
| Transmission Control Module | Solenoid Driver Unit |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-side switching of hydraulic pressure control solenoids in automatic transmissions. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power switch controlling 12–24 V, 2–5 A solenoid coils with 10–100 ms pulse widths. Use Value: Repetitive avalanche rating absorbs back-EMF without snubbers; 175 °C rating ensures reliability across oil-temperature cycles. |
Use Scenario: Low-side driving of fuel injector solenoids in gasoline direct injection systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-turning N-channel switch with <10 ns fall time and 18.1 ns diode trr for precise fuel metering. Use Value: Low RDS(on) minimizes I²R heating during extended dwell times; QGD = 3 nC enables clean turn-off at 10 kHz PWM. |
| 48 V Mild Hybrid DC-DC Converter | Electric Power Steering (EPS) Motor Phase Leg |
|
Use Scenario: Synchronous rectification in 48 V–12 V bidirectional buck-boost converters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side FET in synchronous topology operating at 200–500 kHz with 10 V gate drive. Use Value: Coss = 56–67 pF and Crss = 45–62 pF minimize switching losses; Rth(j-mb) = 4.03 K/W sustains efficiency at full load. |
Use Scenario: Half-bridge phase leg in 3-phase EPS motor inverter (12–48 V bus). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-frequency switching element handling 10–20 A peak phase current with <100 ns dead-time constraints. Use Value: 98 mΩ RDS(on) limits conduction loss below 4 W at 20 A; trr = 18.1 ns prevents shoot-through during commutation. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | 60 V VDS, 0.95 mΩ RDS(on), PowerFLAT 5x6 package, 175 °C rated | Limited to ≤60 V systems; superior RDS(on) but lower voltage margin for 48 V transients | Select when board space is constrained and 60 V rating suffices; verify transient clamping for ISO 7637-2 pulses. |
| IRF3205PBF | 55 V VDS, 8.0 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220 package, not AEC-Q101 qualified | Requires external qualification; lacks automotive reliability data and thermal performance of LFPAK56 | Only for non-automotive industrial prototypes; avoid in production automotive designs due to missing AEC-Q101 validation. |
Compared with STL220N6F7 and IRF3205PBF, BUK7Y98-80EX uniquely balances 80 V capability, AEC-Q101 compliance, and LFPAK56 thermal efficiency - making it the only option qualified for 48 V mild hybrid and transmission control without derating or requalification.

FAQ
Is BUK7Y98-80EX pin-compatible with other LFPAK56 MOSFETs?
Yes - BUK7Y98-80EX uses the standard SOT669 footprint with identical 1–3 source, 4 gate, and mounting base pinout. It shares mechanical and solder-reflow compatibility with all Nexperia LFPAK56 N-channel MOSFETs, enabling drop-in replacement within the same voltage and RDS(on) class.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for optimal thermal performance?
For rated 12.3 A continuous current, Nexperia recommends ≥250 mm² of 2 oz copper connected to the mounting base via ≥9 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.6 mm pitch). This achieves near-datasheet Rth(j-mb) = 4.03 K/W and maintains Tj < 150 °C at 25 °C ambient.
Does BUK7Y98-80EX require a gate resistor for automotive EMI compliance?
Yes - a 10 Ω series gate resistor is recommended to limit dI/dt and suppress ringing in 12–48 V automotive harnesses. This value balances switching speed (td(off) ≈ 7.3 ns) and conducted EMI reduction per CISPR 25 Class 5 requirements without compromising thermal performance.
Can BUK7Y98-80EX be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (normalized factor rises with Tj) enables stable current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched layout symmetry, individual gate resistors, and thermal coupling to ensure <5 °C inter-device ΔT; verified up to 3 devices in Nexperia application note AN11152.
