Gate drive and switching budget
Total gate charge is 80 nC at 10 V, and the input capacitance measures 3220 pF at 25 V drain bias. For a 100 kHz switching converter the gate-driver must supply an average 8 mA to charge and discharge the gate — a standard 1 A gate-driver IC handles this with margin. The drive voltage range spans 4.5 V to 10 V; at 4.5 V the on-resistance rises above the 41 mOhm figure quoted at 10 V, so budget a higher Rds(on) if the gate drive rail is 5 V logic.
Lifecycle and compliance
It is ROHS3 compliant, and the Tape & Reel (TR) packaging option suits volume assembly lines. No official second-source or pin-compatible alternate is listed in the manufacturer's cross-reference, so dual-sourcing requires a qualification cycle on a functionally similar P-channel part in the same package.
