Product details
Overview
UPA2780GR-E1-A from Renesas Electronics is an N-channel power MOSFET with integrated Schottky barrier diode in Power SOP8 package, designed for synchronous DC/DC converter topologies. It delivers RDS(on) = 6.2 mΩ (VGS = 10 V, ID = 7 A), Ciss = 1200 pF, and supports ±14 A DC drain current - enabling high-efficiency, compact point-of-load regulation in consumer and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the UPA2780GR-E1-A datasheet, UPA2780GR-E1-A pinout, UPA2780GR-E1-A application, or UPA2780GR-E1-A equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-function integration (MOSFET + SBD), low-voltage gate drive capability (RDS(on) = 8.7 mΩ at 4.5 V), thermal performance on ceramic substrate, and suitability for 30 V-class synchronous buck stages.
Technical Context
The UPA2780GR-E1-A integrates a low-RDS(on) N-channel MOSFET and a co-packaged Schottky barrier diode to eliminate external body diode conduction losses in synchronous rectification. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(off) = 1.0–2.5 V) and strong transconductance support stable switching down to 4.0 V gate drive.
Thermal design is defined by two independent dissipation limits: 2 W for the MOSFET and 1 W for the Schottky diode, both referenced to a 1200 mm² × 2.2 mm ceramic substrate. The device's safe operating area (SOA) is bounded by RDS(on) heating at DC and pulse-width-limited avalanche energy at short durations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 5 V–12 V input synchronous buck converters |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 6.2 mΩ typ. - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 7 A continuous output current |
| RDS(on) @ 4.5 V | 8.7 mΩ typ. - Supports efficient operation with 5 V gate drivers or controller-integrated gate drive |
| Ciss | 1200 pF typ. - Low input capacitance reduces gate drive power and improves switching speed |
| QG | 12 nC - Enables fast turn-on with ≤10 Ω gate resistor and sub-50 ns total propagation delay |

| trr | 31 ns - Ultra-fast recovery prevents cross-conduction and reduces EMI in high-frequency (>500 kHz) designs |
Pinout & Package
UPA2780GR-E1-A uses the Power SOP8 (also known as PSOP8 or "Power Small Outline Package, 8-pin") surface-mount package, measuring 6.0 mm × 4.4 mm × 1.8 mm max, with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement. The package features gull-wing leads and is RoHS-compliant.

| 4 | Gate | Control terminal for MOSFET channel; requires no external gate protection diode (internal ESD diode provided) |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 | Drain (MOSFET & Diode Anode) | High-current drain node shared by MOSFET and Schottky anode; must be connected to PCB copper pour for thermal management |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET + Schottky diode applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7157DP-T1-GE3 (Vishay) | 30 V, 16 A, RDS(on) = 5.8 mΩ @ 10 V; no integrated Schottky - requires external diode | Higher current rating but lacks monolithic diode integration; increases board area and parasitic inductance | Choose when higher ID(DC) margin is required and layout allows discrete diode placement |
| DMN3025LSD-13 (Diodes Inc.) | 30 V, 12 A, RDS(on) = 3.0 mΩ @ 10 V; dual-N with common-drain configuration, no integrated diode | Optimized for dual-phase interleaving; lacks Schottky, requiring separate sync rectifier per phase | Prefer for multi-phase designs where gate drive sharing or layout symmetry outweighs diode integration benefit |
Compared with Si7157DP-T1-GE3 and DMN3025LSD-13, the UPA2780GR-E1-A uniquely combines MOSFET and Schottky in one Power SOP8 die, reducing conduction loss in single-phase buck converters without sacrificing thermal performance or gate drive simplicity.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the UPA2780GR-E1-A?
The UPA2780GR-E1-A is rated for ±14 A DC drain current under specified thermal conditions - specifically when mounted on a 1200 mm² × 2.2 mm ceramic substrate. This rating assumes TA ≤ 25 °C and accounts for both MOSFET conduction and thermal resistance to ambient (Rth(ch–A) = 62.5 °C/W). At elevated ambient temperatures, derating applies per the datasheet's power vs. temperature curve.
Does the UPA2780GR-E1-A require an external gate protection circuit?
The UPA2780GR-E1-A includes an internal gate-to-source protection diode for ESD suppression, but Renesas explicitly states that an external protection circuit is required if voltages exceeding the ±20 V gate–source rating may occur in the system. Transient overvoltage events - such as those from inductive switching or hot-plug scenarios - necessitate external Zener clamping or RC snubbing to ensure long-term reliability of the UPA2780GR-E1-A.
Can the UPA2780GR-E1-A be used in 4.5 V gate drive applications?
Yes - the UPA2780GR-E1-A is characterized for RDS(on) = 8.7 mΩ (typ.) at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 7 A, confirming robust enhancement-mode operation at industry-standard 5 V logic levels. Its gate threshold voltage range (1.0–2.5 V) ensures reliable turn-on even with gate driver tolerances or PCB trace drops, making it suitable for direct interfacing with PWM controllers like the RT7290B or MP2315 without level shifting.
What is the role of the integrated Schottky diode in the UPA2780GR-E1-A?
The integrated Schottky barrier diode in the UPA2780GR-E1-A serves as the intrinsic body diode replacement in synchronous rectification. With VF(S-D) = 0.45 V (typ.) and trr = 31 ns, it conducts during the MOSFET's off-state dead time, eliminating the slow, lossy recovery behavior of conventional silicon body diodes. This directly improves light-load efficiency and reduces heat generation in the UPA2780GR-E1-A during discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation.
Is the UPA2780GR-E1-A compliant with RoHS and lead-free assembly requirements?
Yes - the UPA2780GR-E1-A is manufactured and shipped as a lead-free, RoHS-compliant device. Its Power SOP8 package uses matte tin plating on gull-wing leads and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 3 requirements. Reflow profiles must follow Renesas' recommended temperature ramp rates and peak temperature (≤260 °C) to prevent solder joint voiding or package delamination in the UPA2780GR-E1-A.
