The 3.4 mOhm maximum on-resistance at 30 A, 10 V gate drive sets the conduction loss floor — at 80 A the I²R loss reaches roughly 22 W, which the 94 W power-dissipation ceiling can handle with adequate heatsinking.
Gate drive and switching — 5 V logic compatible
The drive voltage range spans 4.5 V to 10 V for rated Rds(on), so a 5 V microcontroller output or a 5 V gate driver can fully enhance the channel. Gate charge totals 51 nC at 10 V — a 5 V drive will deliver slightly higher on-resistance but still well below the 3.4 mOhm ceiling if the gate driver can source the charge quickly enough. Input capacitance is 5300 pF at 15 V drain bias.
Temperature range and package — through-hole for high-current routing
The TO-220-3 through-hole package (PG-TO220-3-1) allows direct heatsink mounting and handles the 94 W power dissipation with a proper thermal interface.
