120 A, 60 V N-channel HEXFET in D2PAK
It comes in a D2PAK (TO-263-3) surface-mount package with an exposed tab for heat sinking. With a junction temperature range from -55°C to 175°C, this part handles under-hood automotive and industrial environments where ambient heat is high.
3 mOhm Rds(on) — what it means for conduction loss
At 75 A drain current and 10 V gate drive, the maximum Rds(on) is 3 mOhm. That translates to about 17 W conduction loss at 75 A — manageable with a decent copper area on the D2PAK tab. At 120 A the loss climbs to ~43 W, so the thermal design (copper pour, airflow, or heatsink) must match the actual load current. The gate charge of 170 nC at 10 V means the gate driver needs to source and sink enough current to switch the MOSFET at the target frequency. For a 100 kHz switching application, the average gate drive current is about 17 mA — well within a typical driver's capability.
Package and mounting — D2PAK reality
The D2PAK (TO-263-3) package has two leads plus the tab. The 300 W power dissipation at case temperature is only achievable with proper heatsinking — on a bare board without a heatsink, derate aggressively.
Lifecycle and compliance
The ROHS3 compliance is confirmed, making it suitable for designs requiring lead-free soldering and EU RoHS conformance.
