200 V N-channel MOSFET in a TO-220-3 — what it handles
The Infineon BUZ73AIN is an N-channel power MOSFET from the SIPMOS® family, rated for 200 V drain-to-source and 5.5 A continuous drain current at 25 °C case temperature. On-resistance is specified at 600 mOhm maximum with a 10 V gate drive, which keeps conduction losses manageable for a 40 W package in a TO-220-3 through-hole mount. The gate threshold is 4 V at 1 mA, so a 10 V drive is recommended to achieve the rated Rds(on). Operating junction temperature spans -55 °C to 150 °C, covering industrial and automotive under-hood environments.
Where it fits in a power stage
The 200 V Vdss and 5.5 A Id suit DC-DC converters, flyback primary switches, motor drives, and solenoid drivers.
Lifecycle and sourcing
That means it remains a safe choice for new BOM entries and production builds. The part is from the Infineon SIPMOS® series, a long-running MOSFET family with established second sources in the TO-220 footprint.
