Description
Specifically designed for Automotive applications,
this HEXFET® Power MOSFET utilizes the latest
processing techniques to achieve extremely low
on-resistance per silicon area. Additional fea-
tures of this design are a 175°C junction operating
temperature, fast switching speed and improved
repetitive avalanche rating . These features com-
bine to make this design an extremely efficient
and reliable device for use in Automotive applica-
tions and a wide variety of other applications.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only;
and functional operation of the device at these or any other condition beyond those indicated in the specifications is not implied. Exposure
to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. The thermal resistance and power dissipation
ratings are measured under board mounted and still air conditions. Ambient temperature (TA) is 25°C, unless otherwise specified.

Notes:
Repetitive rating; pulse width limited by
max. junction temperature. (See fig. 11).
Limited by TJmax, starting TJ = 25°C, L = 0.27mH,
RG = 25Ω, IAS = 35A, VGS =10V. Part not
recommended for use above this value.
ISD 35A, di/dt 380A/μs, VDD V(BR)DSS,
TJ 175°C.
Pulse width 1.0ms; duty cycle 2%.
Coss eff. is a fixed capacitance that gives the same charging time
as Coss while VDS is rising from 0 to 80% VDSS .
This value determined from sample failure population,
starting TJ = 25°C, L = 0.27mH,RG = 25Ω, IAS = 35A, VGS =10V
This is applied to D2Pak, when mounted on 1" square PCB
( FR-4 or G-10 Material ). For recommended footprint and
soldering techniques refer to application note #AN-994.
Rθ is measured at TJ approximately 90°C.
This is only applied to TO-220AB pakcage.

1. Avalanche failures assumption:
Purely a thermal phenomenon and failure occurs at a
temperature far in excess of Tjmax. This is validated for
every part type.
2. Safe operation in Avalanche is allowed as long asTjmax is
not exceeded.
3. Equation below based on circuit and waveforms shown in
Figures 12a, 12b.
4. PD (ave) = Average power dissipation per single
avalanche pulse.
5. BV = Rated breakdown voltage (1.3 factor accounts for
voltage increase during avalanche).
6. Iav = Allowable avalanche current.
7. ΔT = Allowable rise in junction temperature, not to exceed
Tjmax (assumed as 25°C in Figure 15, 16).
tav = Average time in avalanche.
D = Duty cycle in avalanche = tav ·f
ZthJC(D, tav) = Transient thermal resistance, see figure 11)
PD (ave) = 1/2 ( 1.3·BV·Iav) = DT/ ZthJC
Iav = 2DT/ [1.3·BV·Zth]
