A power MOSFET that defined a generation — now in its end-of-life phase
This means Infineon has ceased production, and no further last-time-buy windows are open. For designs still requiring this exact footprint and performance envelope, the procurement path is through qualified independent distributors who can verify date-code authenticity and supply traceable parts.
Input capacitance of 3247 pF at 25 V Vds is moderate; the gate drive loop should be kept tight to avoid ringing. The ±20 V maximum gate-source rating leaves margin for 12 V or 15 V gate drive rails, but the 4 V gate threshold at 250 µA means the device is fully enhanced only with 10 V drive — logic-level 5 V drive will not achieve the rated Rds(on).
