Product details
Overview
UPA2730TP-E2-AZ from Renesas Electronics is a P-channel power MOSFET designed for Li-ion battery protection circuits and notebook computer power management. It features RDS(on) = 7.0 mΩ max at VGS = –10 V, –7.5 A drain current, –30 V drain-to-source voltage rating, and Power HSOP8 surface-mount package with integrated heat spreader.
For engineers reviewing the UPA2730TP-E2-AZ datasheet, UPA2730TP-E2-AZ pinout, UPA2730TP-E2-AZ application, or UPA2730TP-E2-AZ equivalent, key selection criteria include low-voltage gate drive capability (RDS(on) ≤ 12.0 mΩ at VGS = –4.0 V), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 22.5 mJ), and thermal performance in compact portable power systems.
Technical Context
The UPA2730TP-E2-AZ employs a trench-gate P-channel structure optimized for high-current switching with low conduction loss. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(off) = –1.0 to –2.5 V) enables reliable turn-on with standard logic-level negative gate drive, while its body diode exhibits trr = 65 ns and Qrr = 62 nC under specified conditions.
Designed for unidirectional load switching in battery-side protection, it supports single-pulse avalanche operation up to IAS = –15 A with VDD = –15 V and L = 100 µH. The device's Ciss = 4670 pF (typ.) and QG = 97 nC reflect trade-offs between switching speed and gate drive strength in space-constrained DC-DC and battery cutoff applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for UPA2730TP-E2-AZ at 25°C ambient?
The UPA2730TP-E2-AZ has a maximum continuous drain current (ID(DC)) of –20 A when mounted on a standard glass epoxy board (1 inch × 1 inch × 0.8 mm) at TA = 25°C. This rating assumes proper PCB copper pour and thermal via design under the exposed drain pad. At higher ambient temperatures, derating applies per the datasheet's power dissipation vs. temperature curve.
Does UPA2730TP-E2-AZ support gate drive from a 3.3 V microcontroller?
No-UPA2730TP-E2-AZ requires a negative gate-to-source voltage for turn-on and is not compatible with positive 3.3 V logic. Its gate threshold is specified between –1.0 V and –2.5 V, and full enhancement (RDS(on) ≤ 12.0 mΩ) needs VGS ≤ –4.0 V. A dedicated negative bias generator or level-shifting circuit is required to drive the UPA2730TP-E2-AZ from 3.3 V logic.
What is the avalanche energy rating of UPA2730TP-E2-AZ and how is it tested?
The UPA2730TP-E2-AZ is rated for single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 22.5 mJ, measured under conditions of VDD = –15 V, L = 100 µH, RG = 25 Ω, and starting channel temperature of 25°C. This rating validates its ability to safely absorb inductive energy during abrupt current interruption-critical for battery disconnect reliability in UPA2730TP-E2-AZ-based protection circuits.
Can UPA2730TP-E2-AZ be used in a back-to-back configuration for bidirectional blocking?
Yes-UPA2730TP-E2-AZ is commonly deployed in back-to-back P-channel configuration for full bidirectional blocking in Li-ion battery protection IC designs. Its symmetric source/drain structure (body diode oriented from source to drain) allows complementary placement to block both charge and discharge currents. The low RDS(on) and fast body diode recovery (trr = 65 ns) make UPA2730TP-E2-AZ well-suited for this topology.
Is UPA2730TP-E2-AZ RoHS compliant and what is its moisture sensitivity level?
Yes-UPA2730TP-E2-AZ is RoHS compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU, as confirmed by Renesas Electronics' environmental compliance documentation. Its moisture sensitivity level (MSL) is Level 1 (unlimited floor life at ≤30°C/85% RH), meaning no bake preconditioning is required before reflow soldering, simplifying manufacturing for UPA2730TP-E2-AZ integration.
