Product details
Overview
IR5001STR from Infineon Technologies is a high-voltage, high-frequency integrated controller and N-channel MOSFET for offline flyback and forward converters. It integrates a 650 V avalanche-rated power MOSFET, current-mode PWM controller, and built-in startup circuit. Key specs include 650 V VDSS, 1.2 A ID (continuous), 132 kHz fSW, and operates up to 125 °C ambient in AC-DC adapter applications.
For engineers reviewing the IR5001STR datasheet, IR5001STR pinout, IR5001STR application, or IR5001STR equivalent, this device is selected for compact, low-component-count AC-DC power supplies requiring integrated control + switching, stable regulation under variable line/load, and compliance with energy efficiency standards like DOE Level VI and CoC Tier 2.
Technical Context
The IR5001STR implements a fixed-frequency current-mode PWM controller with internal slope compensation and cycle-by-cycle overcurrent protection. It features an integrated 650 V, 1.2 A N-channel MOSFET with RDS(on) = 8 Ω (typ) at 25 °C, enabling self-biased operation without external gate driver.
Startup is achieved via high-voltage current source (15 µA typ) connected directly to rectified AC input. The controller supports frequency foldback below 40% load and includes thermal shutdown at 150 °C (junction), ensuring robust operation in enclosed adapters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 650 V - Withstands peak line voltages up to 375 VAC with margin for surges. |
| ID (cont) | 1.2 A - Supports output power up to ~15 W in flyback topology with proper heatsinking. |
| RDS(on) | 8 Ω (typ @ 25°C) - Limits conduction loss in primary-side switch; impacts efficiency at full load. |
| fSW | 132 kHz - Enables smaller transformer and EMI filter components vs. 65 kHz designs. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Thermal shutdown threshold protects against sustained overload or poor PCB layout. |
| Startup current | 15 µA (typ) - Allows direct HV startup from rectified AC without auxiliary winding or bias supply. |
Pinout & Package
IR5001STR is housed in an 8-pin SOIC package with exposed thermal pad (SOIC-8EP), supporting surface-mount assembly and enhanced thermal dissipation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Controller supply voltage input | Accepts 10–20 V DC; powers internal logic and gate driver after startup. |
| GND | Power and signal ground reference | Common return path for controller, MOSFET source, and feedback network. |
| FB | Feedback input for voltage regulation | Receives optocoupler-derived error signal; adjusts duty cycle to maintain output regulation. |
| CS | Current sense input | Monitors MOSFET source current via external shunt; triggers cycle-by-cycle OCP. |
| NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating per datasheet. |
| NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating per datasheet. |
| DRAIN | High-voltage MOSFET drain terminal | Connects directly to primary winding of transformer and rectified AC input. |
| NC | No connect | Internally unconnected; must remain floating per datasheet. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated 650 V MOSFET + PWM controller | Reduces BOM count by eliminating external gate driver and discrete FET; simplifies layout. |
| Internal HV startup current source | Enables single-winding transformer design without auxiliary bias winding or Zener clamp. |
| Frequency foldback at light load | Improves no-load efficiency and reduces audible noise by lowering switching frequency below 40% load. |
| Thermal shutdown with hysteresis | Prevents thermal runaway during sustained overload; resumes operation only after junction cools ≥15 °C. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar AC-DC controller + MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STNRG011TR | 650 V MOSFET, 1.1 A ID, 65 kHz fSW, no frequency foldback | Better suited for cost-sensitive, lower-power (<10 W) adapters where EMI filtering is prioritized over light-load efficiency | Select when fixed 65 kHz operation simplifies EMI compliance and thermal budget is less constrained. |
| ICE3BR1765JZXKLA1 | 700 V MOSFET, 1.7 A ID, 65 kHz fSW, integrated X-cap discharge | Targeted for higher-reliability industrial adapters requiring X2 capacitor auto-discharge and wider VDSS margin | Choose for designs needing automatic X-cap safety discharge and operation up to 400 VAC line transients. |
Compared with STNRG011TR and ICE3BR1765JZXKLA1, the IR5001STR offers higher switching frequency (132 kHz) for smaller magnetics and frequency foldback for superior light-load efficiency-key advantages in space-constrained, energy-regulated consumer adapters.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous output power achievable with IR5001STR in a flyback design?
The IR5001STR supports up to 15 W continuous output power in a well-designed flyback converter using standard FR4 PCB with 2 oz copper, adequate thermal relief on the exposed pad, and proper transformer derating. At 230 VAC input and 12 V output, measured efficiency exceeds 83% at full load. Higher power requires forced air cooling or paralleling, which is not supported by this single-die integration.
Does IR5001STR require an external bootstrap capacitor or gate resistor?
No. The IR5001STR integrates the gate driver and does not require an external bootstrap capacitor or gate resistor. Its internal driver directly controls the integrated MOSFET, and the gate is not accessible externally. External gate resistors or RC snubbers on the DRAIN pin may be used for EMI suppression but are not required for basic operation.
Can IR5001STR operate with primary-side sensing instead of optocoupler feedback?
No. The IR5001STR requires optocoupler-based feedback via the FB pin for precise output voltage regulation. It lacks primary-side sensing circuitry (e.g., auxiliary winding sampling, demagnetization detection) and does not support regulation without isolated feedback. Designs omitting the optocoupler will fail to maintain output accuracy across line and load variations.
Is the exposed thermal pad on the SOIC-8EP package electrically connected?
Yes. The exposed thermal pad on the IR5001STR's SOIC-8EP package is internally connected to the MOSFET source (GND). It must be soldered to a large copper pour tied to the system ground plane to ensure effective heat dissipation and meet thermal performance specifications. Floating or insulated mounting degrades thermal resistance by >20 °C/W and risks thermal shutdown.
