P-channel switch for load and OR-ing applications
The Infineon BSZ180P03NS3GATMA1 is a 30 V P-Channel MOSFET from the OptiMOS™ series, built on a metal-oxide trench technology. It delivers a maximum continuous drain current of 9 A at 25°C ambient (Ta) and 39.6 A when the case is held at 25°C (Tc), with an on-resistance of 18 mOhm max at a 20 A drain current and 10 V gate drive. The part is housed in a PG-TSDSON-8 package (8-PowerTDFN) and operates across a junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, making it suitable for automotive under-hood and industrial environments where ambient temperatures can spike.
Package and footprint
The PG-TSDSON-8 is a surface-mount PowerTDFN with an exposed thermal pad. The pad must be soldered to a copper plane on the PCB to achieve the 39.6 A case-rated current and 40 W power dissipation. The 2220 pF input capacitance at 15 V drain-source is typical for a 30 V P-channel in this package class; the gate driver should be placed close to the FET to minimize loop inductance.
Lifecycle and sourcing
The BSZ180P03NS3GATMA1 is listed as Active in production with ROHS3 compliance. No NRND or EOL notices are on record. There is no pin-compatible second source in the OptiMOS P-channel portfolio at this voltage and Rds(on) tier; the N-channel CoolMOS™ IPD50R950CEAUMA1 is a different polarity and voltage class (500 V N-Channel) and is not a functional substitute.
