Product details
Overview
HAT1038RJ-EL from Renesas Electronics is a silicon P-channel power MOSFET designed for high-speed automotive power switching applications. It features –60 V drain-to-source voltage, 0.16 Ω typical RDS(on) at –4 V gate drive, and –3.5 A continuous drain current in SOP-8 (FP-8DAV) package. It supports 4 V logic-level gate drive and is qualified for automotive use per its "J" type code.
For engineers reviewing the HAT1038RJ-EL datasheet, HAT1038RJ-EL pinout, HAT1038RJ-EL application, or HAT1038RJ-EL equivalent, key selection criteria include low-voltage gate compatibility, avalanche energy rating (1.05 mJ), body-diode reverse recovery time (70 ns), thermal derating behavior, and automotive-grade leakage performance (–0.1 μA IDSS at –60 V).
Technical Context
This device operates as a single high-side load switch with integrated body diode, optimized for 12 V automotive systems requiring fast turn-on/turn-off (td(on) = 11 ns, tf = 55 ns) and robust transient handling. Its –2.2 V maximum VGS(off) ensures reliable cutoff under noisy conditions, while Ciss = 600 pF and Crss = 75 pF support stable PWM control up to several hundred kHz.
The MOSFET uses a planar trench structure enabling low RDS(on) without sacrificing switching speed or avalanche ruggedness. It is rated for repetitive avalanche operation (IAP = –3.5 A, EAR = 1.05 mJ) and exhibits temperature-stable on-resistance-0.23 Ω max at –4 V VGS and Tc = 125°C-making it suitable for engine bay-mounted power distribution modules.

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPD95R1K2P7ATMA1 | 950 V rating, 1.2 Ω RDS(on), TO-252 package, higher voltage class | Designed for 400 V EV charging systems-not automotive 12 V loads | Not suitable for HAT1038RJ-EL replacement due to excessive voltage rating and incompatible RDS(on) |
| DMT6009LPS-13 | 60 V, 9.5 mΩ RDS(on) at –10 V, but only 0.35 Ω at –4 V; SO-8 package | Higher gate threshold (–2.5 V min); less robust avalanche rating (0.5 mJ) | Acceptable for non-critical 12 V loads where lower conduction loss at –10 V matters more than 4 V drive or surge immunity |
Compared with IPD95R1K2P7ATMA1, HAT1038RJ-EL offers optimal 12 V system fit with guaranteed 4 V drive and automotive qualification; versus DMT6009LPS-13, it delivers superior low-VGS performance and certified avalanche ruggedness for safety-critical automotive functions.

FAQ
What is the gate threshold voltage range for HAT1038RJ-EL?
The gate-to-source cutoff voltage (VGS(off)) for HAT1038RJ-EL is specified from –1.2 V to –2.2 V at VDS = –10 V and ID = –1 mA. This ensures reliable turn-off even under elevated temperature or electrical noise in automotive environments. The HAT1038RJ-EL maintains stable switching behavior across its full operational temperature range, making it suitable for under-hood applications where ambient temperatures exceed 105°C.
Is HAT1038RJ-EL qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, HAT1038RJ-EL carries the "J" suffix per Renesas' ordering nomenclature, explicitly designating it as automotive-grade and qualified per AEC-Q101. Its datasheet specifies ultra-low IDSS (–0.1 μA at –60 V), extended temperature operation, and repetitive avalanche capability-all required for automotive power switching. The HAT1038RJ-EL is intended for use in engine control units, body control modules, and other non-safety-critical automotive systems.
What is the maximum continuous drain current for HAT1038RJ-EL at 100°C case temperature?
At Tc = 100°C, the maximum continuous drain current for HAT1038RJ-EL is approximately –2.2 A, derived from the power derating curve on page 3 of the datasheet (Pch = 3 W at Tc ≤ 25°C, linearly reduced to zero at 150°C). This value assumes proper PCB copper area (FR4 40 × 40 × 1.6 mm) and accounts for thermal resistance. The HAT1038RJ-EL's RDS(on) increase with temperature is characterized to ensure predictable performance in real-world thermal conditions.
Can HAT1038RJ-EL be used with 3.3 V logic-level microcontrollers?
No-HAT1038RJ-EL requires a minimum of –4 V gate drive for full enhancement and low RDS(on). While it conducts weakly at –3.3 V, its RDS(on) rises sharply beyond 0.5 Ω, causing excessive power loss. A level shifter or gate driver is recommended when interfacing with 3.3 V MCUs. The HAT1038RJ-EL is optimized for 5 V logic systems common in automotive ECUs and does not support true 3.3 V gate operation.
What is the body diode forward voltage of HAT1038RJ-EL at –3.5 A?
The body-drain diode forward voltage (VDF) for HAT1038RJ-EL is –0.98 V typical and –1.28 V maximum at IF = –3.5 A and VGS = 0. This low VF reduces conduction loss during freewheeling in inductive load circuits such as motor drivers and solenoid controls. The HAT1038RJ-EL's diode characteristics are fully characterized and validated for repetitive operation, supporting reliable use in bidirectional current paths without external diodes.
