3.7 mOhm Rds(on) at 50 A — conduction loss floor
The on-resistance of 3.7 mOhm at Vgs=10 V and 50 A sets the conduction-loss baseline for a 40 V power stage — at 50 A the dissipation is roughly 9.25 W, which the 119 W Tc rating can handle with an adequate heatsink.
Gate drive and switching budget
Total gate charge is 100 nC at Vgs=10 V, with an input capacitance of 5550 pF at Vds=25 V. A 10 V drive voltage is specified for the minimum Rds(on); the gate is rated ±20 V max. For a 100 kHz switching frequency, the average gate-drive current is 100 nC × 100 kHz = 10 mA — well within a standard gate-driver IC's capability, but the peak current during the Miller plateau requires a driver with at least 2 A peak output to keep switching edges clean.
It is ROHS3 compliant.
