Product details
Overview
BUZ31HXKSA1 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode SIPMOS power MOSFET rated for 200 V drain-source voltage, 14.5 A continuous drain current at TC = 30 °C, and 0.2 Ω maximum RDS(on) at VGS = 5 V and ID = 9 A. It features avalanche-rated ruggedness (EAS = 200 mJ), integrated body diode with 1.1–1.6 V forward voltage, and TO-220-3 package for industrial motor control and DC-DC converter primary-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the BUZ31HXKSA1 datasheet, BUZ31HXKSA1 pinout, BUZ31HXKSA1 application, or BUZ31HXKSA1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V V(BR)DSS rating, 14.5 A ID capability, 0.2 Ω RDS(on), avalanche energy handling (200 mJ), and thermal resistance (RthJC ≤ 1.32 K/W) in high-reliability power switching designs.
Technical Context
This device operates as a unidirectional high-voltage power switch with gate-controlled turn-on/turn-off. Its transconductance (gfs = 5–12 S) and low input capacitance (Ciss = 840–1120 pF) support fast switching in hard-switched topologies, while the integrated body diode enables freewheeling in flyback and buck converters.
The MOSFET's avalanche rating is validated under defined test conditions (ID = 14.5 A, VDD = 50 V, L = 1.42 mH, RGS = 25 Ω), and its RDS(on) exhibits positive temperature coefficient-increasing from ~0.16 Ω at 25 °C to ~0.45 Ω at 150 °C-enabling inherent current sharing in parallel configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 200 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines usable bus voltage headroom in 100–150 V DC systems. |
| ID (continuous) | 14.5 A at TC = 30 °C - Continuous conduction limit with heatsink; derates to zero at TC = 120 °C per curve on Page 5. |
| RDS(on) | 0.16–0.2 Ω at VGS = 5 V, ID = 9 A - On-state resistance directly impacts conduction loss (Pcond = I² × RDS(on)) and junction temperature rise. |
| EAS | 200 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; enables robustness against inductive load turn-off transients without external snubbers. |
| Ciss | 840–1120 pF at VDS = 25 V - Input capacitance determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed trade-offs. |
| VGS(th) | 2.1–4.0 V - Gate threshold voltage range; ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V logic-level drivers while avoiding spurious turn-on near 0 V. |
| RthJC | ≤1.32 K/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; defines minimum heatsink interface performance needed to maintain Tj ≤ 150 °C. |
Pinout & Package
BUZ31HXKSA1 is housed in a PG-TO-220-3 package with standard lead frame layout: Pin 1 = Gate (G), Pin 2 = Drain (D), Pin 3 = Source (S). The drain-connected tab is electrically tied to Pin 2 and serves as primary thermal path to heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 | Gate (G) | Control terminal; requires ≥5 V drive for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (HBM Class 1). |
| Pin 2 | Drain (D) | Main high-side current path; connected to heatsink tab; carries full switched current and avalanche energy. |
| Pin 3 | Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive; common return for load current; forms body diode anode. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche-rated operation | Validated single-pulse EAS = 200 mJ under defined inductive switching conditions-reduces need for external clamping circuits. |
| Low RDS(on) at 5 V drive | 0.16 Ω typ. enables efficient switching with standard microcontroller GPIO or low-voltage gate drivers without level-shifting. |
| Integrated body diode | 14.5 A continuous / 58 A pulsed reverse diode with VSD = 1.1–1.6 V supports freewheeling in non-synchronous converters. |
| Pb-free & halogen-free | RoHS-compliant plating and IEC61249-2-21 halogen-free construction meet industrial environmental compliance requirements. |
Applications
| Motor Drive Inverter | Industrial DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Half-bridge leg in 24–48 V BLDC motor drives for HVAC blowers and conveyor systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side power switch controlling phase current commutation; handles repetitive 14.5 A loads with 200 V bus margin. Use Value: Avalanche rating absorbs back-EMF spikes during abrupt current interruption, eliminating need for discrete TVS protection. | Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in isolated 48 V to 12 V flyback converter for PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power transistor operating at 100–200 kHz; switches 10–12 A peak current with <20 ns rise/fall times. Use Value: Low Ciss and fast tr/tf reduce gate drive losses and improve efficiency above 100 kHz switching frequencies. |
| Uninterruptible Power Supply | LED Driver Power Stage |
Use Scenario: Battery-charging FET and inverter output stage in 120 VAC online UPS units. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Bidirectional switching element managing AC line sync and battery discharge paths; sustains 150 °C junction temperature. Use Value: RthJC ≤ 1.32 K/W allows direct mounting to shared heatsink with other power stages, reducing thermal management complexity. | Use Scenario: Constant-current switch in high-bay LED driver with 100–200 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PWM-controlled current regulator driving 10–15 A LED strings; operates in linear region during dimming transitions. Use Value: Positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient prevents thermal runaway during analog dimming or fault conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP20NM20 | VDS = 200 V, RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω (max), no published EAS rating | Lacks validated avalanche energy spec; requires external clamping in inductive switching | Lower cost where avalanche stress is absent or externally managed |
| IRF640NPBF | VDS = 200 V, RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω (max), EAS = 170 mJ (typ) | 170 mJ EAS vs. 200 mJ; higher Ciss (1100–1400 pF) increases gate drive demand | Acceptable where lower gate charge is not critical and 30 mJ EAS margin is sufficient |
Compared with STP20NM20 and IRF640NPBF, BUZ31HXKSA1 offers superior avalanche ruggedness (200 mJ), tighter RDS(on) tolerance (0.16–0.2 Ω), and lower Ciss, making it preferred for unclamped inductive loads and high-frequency, high-reliability industrial power stages.

FAQ
Is BUZ31HXKSA1 suitable for 5 V logic-level gate drive?
Yes. With VGS(th) ranging from 2.1–4.0 V and RDS(on) specified at VGS = 5 V, BUZ31HXKSA1 achieves full enhancement using standard 5 V microcontroller outputs or logic-level drivers without gate voltage boosting.
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for continuous operation?
The device supports continuous operation up to Tj = 150 °C. Derating curves on Page 5 show that at TC = 100 °C, continuous ID drops to ~6.5 A; proper heatsinking must maintain case temperature within limits to avoid exceeding this junction temperature.
Does BUZ31HXKSA1 include an integrated body diode?
Yes. It features a monolithic N-channel MOSFET with an integrated parasitic body diode (source-drain diode), rated for 14.5 A continuous and 58 A pulsed forward current, with VSD = 1.1–1.6 V at IF = 29 A and Tj = 25 °C.
How does the avalanche rating impact system design?
The 200 mJ single-pulse EAS rating allows BUZ31HXKSA1 to safely absorb inductive energy during turn-off without external snubbers-critical in relay drivers, solenoid controls, and motor phase commutation where voltage spikes exceed VDS rating.
