Product details
Overview
NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY from Renesas Electronics is an N-channel power MOSFET in TO-263 (D²PAK) package, rated for 40 V VDSS, ±80 A DC drain current, and 4.5 mΩ max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V / ID = 40 A. It features logic-level gate drive (VGS(th) = 1.4–2.5 V), built-in gate protection diode, and AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive switching applications including motor control and DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY datasheet, NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY pinout, NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY application, or NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY equivalent, key selection criteria include its low RDS(on) at 4.5 V gate drive, 115 W TC power dissipation, TO-263 thermal performance (Rth(ch-C) = 1.30 °C/W), and avalanche energy rating (EAR = 137 mJ).
Technical Context
This device uses a planar trench-gate structure optimized for high-current, low-voltage switching with fast turn-on (td(on) = 17–37 ns) and controlled turn-off (td(off) = 74–148 ns). Its gate charge profile (QG = 90–135 nC, QGD = 26 nC) supports efficient PWM operation in synchronous rectification and H-bridge topologies.
The integrated body diode exhibits VF(S-D) = 0.95–1.5 V at IF = 80 A and trr = 39 ns under specified di/dt conditions, enabling reliable freewheeling in inductive loads without external Schottky supplementation in many automotive-grade designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V/24 V automotive battery systems and 36 V industrial rails. |
| RDS(on) max | 4.5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 40 A - Enables <1.8 W conduction loss at 80 A, critical for high-efficiency motor drivers. |
| ID(DC) | ±80 A - Supports high-power load switching without parallel devices in compact PCB layouts. |
| QG | 90–135 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement; enables use with standard 1–2 A peak gate drivers. |
| Rth(ch-C) | 1.30 °C/W - Allows direct heatsink mounting to sustain 115 W power dissipation at TC = 25°C. |
| Avalanche Energy | 137 mJ @ Tch ≤ 150°C - Provides robustness against inductive switching transients in motor and solenoid control. |
| VGS(th) | 1.4–2.5 V - Ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V or 5 V logic-level microcontrollers without level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY is housed in a surface-mount TO-263 (MP-25ZP) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance. The package measures 15.25 × 10.0 mm with 2.54 mm lead pitch and Pb-free pure Sn plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts logic-level input; requires external gate resistor (RG = 25 Ω typical) to damp ringing and limit peak current during switching. |
| 2 (Drain) | Main current path (high-side) | Connected to large copper pour or heatsink via exposed metal tab; carries full load current and dissipates heat directly to PCB or heatsink. |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node / return path | Serves as power ground reference for gate drive; must be low-inductance connection to minimize shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations. |
| 4 (Fin / Drain Tab) | Thermal & electrical drain extension | Electrically tied to Pin 2; provides primary thermal path to PCB copper; requires solder mask opening and thermal vias for optimal cooling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate threshold | VGS(th) = 1.4–2.5 V ensures compatibility with 3.3 V/5 V MCUs and ASICs without gate driver ICs. |
| Built-in gate protection diode | ESD-rated diode between gate and source prevents damage from human-body-model (HBM) events up to ±2 kV (per JEDEC JESD22-A114). |
| Low Ciss | 4600 pF typ. reduces gate drive power and improves switching efficiency in high-frequency (>100 kHz) SMPS designs. |
| AEC-Q101 qualified | Validated for automotive underhood environments per stress test requirements including HTGB, TC, and UHAST. |
| Repetitive avalanche capability | Rated for 37 A IAR and 137 mJ EAR, enabling reliable operation in unclamped inductive switching without snubbers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4LF6AG | 40 V, 220 A, RDS(on) = 1.8 mΩ @ 10 V; DFN8 5×6 mm package; no integrated gate protection diode. | Higher current density but requires external ESD protection and more complex thermal layout due to smaller footprint. | Preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency DC-DC where gate drive is isolated and PCB layout permits fine-pitch routing. |
| IRF1404ZLPbF | 40 V, 180 A, RDS(on) = 3.8 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220 package; not AEC-Q101 qualified; higher Rth(ch-C) = 1.5 °C/W. | Lacks automotive qualification and has lower thermal efficiency; suitable only for industrial non-automotive use. | Select only for cost-sensitive industrial applications where AEC-Q101 compliance and maximum thermal performance are not required. |
Compared with STL220N4LF6AG and IRF1404ZLPbF, NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY offers balanced trade-offs: AEC-Q101 qualification and gate protection for automotive reliability, TO-263 thermal performance superior to TO-220, and RDS(on) low enough for 80 A operation without paralleling-making it optimal for production-grade automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY?
The NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY is rated for ±80 A DC drain current at TC = 25°C. Derating applies above 25°C case temperature per the datasheet's total power dissipation curve; at TC = 100°C, usable current drops to approximately ±45 A to maintain safe channel temperature limits.
Is NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY is AEC-Q101 qualified and explicitly designed for automotive applications. Its qualification covers temperature cycling, high-temperature gate bias, and unclamped inductive switching tests required for under-hood and chassis-mounted power systems.
What package type does NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY use, and how is thermal performance achieved?
NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY uses the TO-263 (MP-25ZP) surface-mount package with an exposed drain tab. Thermal performance relies on direct soldering of the tab to a large PCB copper area with thermal vias; its Rth(ch-C) = 1.30 °C/W enables 115 W dissipation at TC = 25°C when properly mounted.
Does NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY include internal gate protection?
Yes, NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY integrates a gate-to-source protection diode to suppress ESD events. However, the datasheet cautions that external gate protection remains necessary if voltages exceeding ±20 V are expected-such as from inductive kickback or poor layout coupling.
What is the typical gate charge (QG) of NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY, and why does it matter?
NP80N04PLG-E1B-AY has a total gate charge QG of 90–135 nC at VDD = 32 V. This value determines the energy required to switch the device and directly impacts gate driver sizing, switching losses, and achievable PWM frequency-critical for optimizing efficiency in motor drives and SMPS.
