Product details
Overview
64-0055PBF from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for 60 V VDS, 160 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and RDS(on) ≤ 3.0 mΩ at VGS = 10 V. It serves as a high-current synchronous rectifier or main switch in DC-DC converters and motor drive half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the 64-0055PBF datasheet, 64-0055PBF pinout, 64-0055PBF application, or 64-0055PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, SOA-rated pulsed current capability, and thermal performance in forced-air-cooled industrial power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs Infineon's OptiMOS™ 5 technology, optimized for high-efficiency switching in 48 V input systems. Its gate charge Qg is 105 nC (typ.) and output charge Qoss is 270 nC (typ.) at VDS = 25 V, enabling fast turn-on/turn-off with moderate gate driver strength.
The device features avalanche-rated ruggedness (EAS = 520 mJ at TJ = 25°C), integrated body diode with trr = 65 ns (typ.), and specified safe operating area up to 10 ms pulse width - supporting reliable operation under transient overload and inductive switching.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage in off-state; suitable for 48 V bus systems with 20 % margin. |
| ID (continuous) | 160 A at TC = 25°C - Requires heatsinking for sustained operation above 80 A at 70°C case temperature. |
| RDS(on) | ≤ 3.0 mΩ at VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 18 A RMS in 12 V output stage of 1 kW LLC converter. |
| Qg | 105 nC (typ.) - Determines minimum gate driver peak current (~2 A for 50 ns rise time) and switching energy loss. |
| EAS | 520 mJ at TJ = 25°C - Supports single-pulse inductive energy absorption without failure in motor phase-leg short-circuit events. |
| trr | 65 ns (typ.) - Limits reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectification; enables >200 kHz operation with soft-switching control. |
Pinout & Package
64-0055PBF uses the standard TO-220AB package with isolated tab, 3-pin through-hole mounting, and thermal pad attached to drain. Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Drain (tab), Pin 3 = Source.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (left) | Gate | Control terminal; requires 10 V nominal drive for full enhancement; Miller plateau at ~4.5 V. |
| Pin 2 (center/tab) | Drain | Main high-side current path; electrically connected to metal tab - must be insulated from heatsink unless referenced to system ground. |
| Pin 3 (right) | Source | Reference node for gate drive; carries full load current; layout must minimize source inductance to suppress ringing. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| OptiMOS™ 5 process | Enables 3.0 mΩ RDS(on) at 60 V while maintaining robust avalanche rating and fast switching. |
| Enhancement-mode operation | Zero gate current in steady state; compatible with standard TTL/CMOS logic-level drivers when used with gate resistor network. |
| 100 % UIS tested | Each unit validated for unclamped inductive switching stress - critical for motor control reliability. |
| Lead-free and RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU; Pb-free plating on leads and tab supports lead-free reflow and wave soldering processes. |
Applications
| Server VRM Output Stage | Industrial BLDC Inverter Phase Leg |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-density 48 V–12 V buck converter delivering up to 200 A to CPU/GPU core rails. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier switch replacing Schottky diode to reduce conduction loss and improve efficiency above 90 %. Use Value: 3.0 mΩ RDS(on) cuts rectifier loss by >65 % vs. 40 V Schottky, enabling smaller heatsink and higher power density. | Use Scenario: 3-phase inverter driving 5–10 kW permanent-magnet motor in CNC spindle or conveyor system. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in each half-bridge leg, commutated at 8–16 kHz with dead-time control. Use Value: 160 A ID rating and 520 mJ EAS ensure fault tolerance during motor stall and regenerative braking transients. |
| Telecom 48 V DC-DC Converter | EV Onboard Charger Primary Switch |
Use Scenario: Isolated forward or LLC converter converting -48 V telecom supply to +12 V for base station control cards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side active clamp switch handling repetitive 60 V, 50 A pulses at 250 kHz. Use Value: Low Qg (105 nC) and Qoss (270 nC) reduce gate drive loss and improve light-load efficiency over competing 60 V MOSFETs. | Use Scenario: 6.6 kW AC/DC stage using interleaved PFC + dual-phase LLC topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side synchronous rectifier in LLC resonant tank output stage. Use Value: Fast trr (65 ns) minimizes reverse recovery loss during zero-voltage switching transitions, improving full-load efficiency by 0.4–0.6 %. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 60 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STMicroelectronics STP160N6F6 | RDS(on) = 2.8 mΩ (lower), Qg = 120 nC (higher), TO-220FP package (smaller footprint, lower thermal mass) | Higher gate drive loss; less suitable for high-frequency (>300 kHz) hard-switched topologies | Prefer for space-constrained 48 V VRMs where thermal design allows reduced heatsink size. |
| Vishay SiHB16N60E | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ (slightly higher), EAS = 410 mJ (lower), TO-220AB package identical | Reduced single-pulse avalanche margin; not recommended for motor phase-leg short-circuit protection | Acceptable for fixed-frequency DC-DC where inductive stress is limited and cost sensitivity is high. |
Compared with STP160N6F6 and SiHB16N60E, 64-0055PBF offers best balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and industry-leading EAS - making it preferred for industrial motor drives and telecom power where both efficiency and ruggedness are mandatory.

FAQ
Is 64-0055PBF suitable for logic-level gate drive?
No. 64-0055PBF requires ≥10 V gate-source voltage for full enhancement and specified RDS(on). Its threshold voltage VGS(th) is 2.0–4.0 V, but conduction resistance rises sharply below 4.5 V. A dedicated 12 V gate driver or level-shifter is required for reliable operation in 3.3 V or 5 V control systems.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous 160 A operation?
160 A is rated only at TC = 25°C with infinite heatsink. At TC = 70°C, the continuous current drops to 115 A per Infineon's SOA curve. Derating is linear between 25°C and 125°C case temperature; operation above 125°C case violates absolute maximum ratings.
Does 64-0055PBF have integrated ESD protection on the gate?
Yes. The device includes on-chip gate oxide protection diodes rated for ±2 kV HBM per JESD22-A114. However, external gate resistors (≥10 Ω) and TVS clamping remain recommended in high-noise motor drive or automotive environments to prevent cumulative gate oxide degradation.
Can 64-0055PBF replace older OptiMOS™ 3 or 4 devices in existing designs?
Yes - with verification. Pinout and package are identical to previous generations, and RDS(on) is lower. However, gate charge and output capacitance differ; layout parasitics and gate driver strength must be rechecked to avoid overshoot or slow switching. Thermal interface and heatsink retention force should also be confirmed for mechanical compatibility.
