Product details
Overview
HAT2172H-EL-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon N-channel power MOSFET designed for high-efficiency, high-density power switching in DC-DC converters and motor drivers. It delivers RDS(on) = 5.8 mΩ (typ.) at VGS = 10 V, supports 30 A continuous drain current, and operates with 7 V gate drive compatibility - enabling use with standard logic-level controllers in industrial and automotive auxiliary power systems.
For engineers reviewing the HAT2172H-EL-E datasheet, HAT2172H-EL-E pinout, HAT2172H-EL-E application, or HAT2172H-EL-E equivalent, key selection criteria include its LFPAK (PTZZ0005DA-A) package thermal performance (θch-C = 6.25°C/W), fast switching (td(off) = 38 ns), low Qg = 32 nC, and integrated body diode with trr = 32 ns for synchronous rectification and flyback recovery.
Technical Context
The HAT2172H-EL-E employs a trench-gate, super-junction–inspired silicon structure optimized for low conduction loss and fast turn-off. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(off) ranges from 1.5 V to 3.0 V, ensuring reliable enhancement-mode operation with minimal shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations.
Designed for surface-mount power switching, it features a single-die LFPAK package with exposed-drain thermal pad and three paralleled source terminals (pins 1–3) to minimize source inductance - critical for high di/dt applications such as brushless DC motor phase control and automotive LED headlamp drivers.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPB050N04LGATMA1 | RDS(on) = 5.0 mΩ @ 10 V but requires 4.5 V min gate drive; higher Qg = 42 nC. | Better conduction loss at high current, but slower switching and higher drive power demand. | Prefer when lowest RDS(on) dominates over switching speed and gate drive simplicity. |
| DMTH4007LPS-13 | RDS(on) = 6.8 mΩ @ 10 V; LFPAK56 package with identical footprint but different pinout (drain on pin 5, gate on pin 1). | Same mechanical mounting, but PCB redesign required due to gate/source pin swap. | Consider only if sourcing constraints require Diodes Inc. supply chain; verify layout compatibility before substitution. |
Compared with IPB050N04LGATMA1 and DMTH4007LPS-13, the HAT2172H-EL-E offers superior gate-drive flexibility (7 V compatible), lower Qg, and a proven three-source-pin configuration that enhances stability in high-di/dt motor drives - making it optimal for space-constrained, thermally demanding industrial and automotive power stages where drive simplicity and layout robustness are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for HAT2172H-EL-E?
The HAT2172H-EL-E is rated for 30 A continuous drain current (ID) at Tc = 25°C. This rating assumes proper PCB thermal design - specifically, mounting on ≥1-in² 2-oz copper with thermal vias to maintain case temperature within limits. At elevated case temperatures, current must be derated per the "Power vs. Temperature Derating" curve in the datasheet, reaching ~12 A at Tc = 100°C. The HAT2172H-EL-E achieves this performance using its LFPAK package's low θch-C of 6.25°C/W.
Does HAT2172H-EL-E support 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
No - the HAT2172H-EL-E does not guarantee full enhancement with 3.3 V gate drive. Its gate threshold voltage VGS(off) is specified from 1.5 V to 3.0 V, but RDS(on) is characterized only at VGS = 7 V and 10 V. At 3.3 V, RDS(on) rises significantly (>25 mΩ), increasing conduction loss beyond practical use. The HAT2172H-EL-E is explicitly designed for 7 V minimum gate drive, making it compatible with 5 V logic or dedicated gate drivers, but not direct 3.3 V GPIO control without level shifting.
What is the thermal resistance from channel to case (θch-C) for HAT2172H-EL-E?
The HAT2172H-EL-E has a channel-to-case thermal resistance (θch-C) of 6.25°C/W, measured under standard test conditions (Tc = 25°C). This value reflects the device's highly efficient thermal path from the silicon die through the exposed drain pad to the PCB copper. Achieving this performance requires soldering the drain pad to a minimum 100 mm² (≈0.155 in²) copper area with ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) to an internal ground plane. The HAT2172H-EL-E's LFPAK package enables this low θch-C without requiring external heatsinks in many medium-power applications.
Can HAT2172H-EL-E be used in avalanche mode?
Yes - the HAT2172H-EL-E is rated for repetitive avalanche operation with IAP = 20 A and EAR = 32 mJ at Tch = 25°C (Rg ≥ 50 Ω). Its avalanche ruggedness is validated using the standard test circuit per JEDEC guidelines. However, avalanche operation should be limited to fault protection scenarios (e.g., inductive load switching) and not used in normal switching. Designers must ensure peak channel temperature remains below 150°C during avalanche events, and the HAT2172H-EL-E's safe operating area (SOA) graph must be consulted to avoid secondary breakdown.
What is the body diode forward voltage (VDF) of HAT2172H-EL-E at 30 A?
The body diode forward voltage (VDF) of the HAT2172H-EL-E is 0.84 V (typical) at IF = 30 A and VGS = 0 V, with a maximum of 1.10 V under the same conditions. This low VDF contributes to reduced conduction loss during freewheeling intervals in synchronous rectifiers and H-bridge motor drives. The diode also exhibits fast reverse recovery (trr = 32 ns) and soft recovery behavior, minimizing voltage spikes and EMI generation. These characteristics are intrinsic to the HAT2172H-EL-E's integrated body diode structure and are verified in the "Electrical Characteristics" table on page 2 of its datasheet.
