Product details
Overview
IRF1405ZL from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is an N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TO-262 (I²PAK) package, rated for 55 V VDSS, 4.9 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 75 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. Designed specifically for automotive power switching, it supports 175°C junction operation, fast switching (td(off) = 48 ns), and tested repetitive avalanche energy up to 150 mJ.
For engineers reviewing the IRF1405ZL datasheet, IRF1405ZL pinout, IRF1405ZL application, or IRF1405ZL equivalent, key selection criteria include low conduction loss in 12 V/24 V automotive systems, thermal robustness under pulsed load conditions, body diode recovery performance (trr = 30–46 ns), and compatibility with standard gate drivers delivering ≥10 V.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced silicon processing to minimize RDS(on) per die area while maintaining high avalanche ruggedness. Its integral body diode exhibits low forward voltage (VSD ≤ 1.3 V at 75 A) and controlled reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 30–45 nC), enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and inductive load switching.
The device features a thermally optimized TO-262 package with low RθJC = 0.65°C/W, supporting high-power density designs. Gate charge parameters (Qg = 120–180 nC, Qgd = 46 nC) indicate moderate drive strength requirements, suitable for discrete gate drivers or microcontroller-based PWM control with external buffer stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V/24 V automotive battery systems with transient suppression margin. |
| RDS(on) | 4.9 mΩ max @ VGS = 10 V - Enables ≤3.7 W conduction loss at 75 A, critical for high-efficiency motor drives and DC-DC converters. |
| ID (continuous) | 75 A @ TC = 25°C - Sustains peak load currents in starter solenoid, fan, or pump drivers without derating at moderate heatsink temperatures. |
| EAS | 150 mJ (tested) - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events in relay/snubberless circuits without failure. |
| trr | 30–46 ns - Limits switching losses and EMI during body diode commutation in half-bridge topologies. |
| TJ max | 175°C - Supports operation in engine bay environments with minimal thermal margin degradation over lifetime. |
| Qg | 120–180 nC - Requires ~1.8–2.7 µC gate drive charge per switch cycle, dictating driver output current capability. |
Pinout & Package
IRF1405ZL uses the TO-262 (I²PAK) package: 3-pin, single-ended, surface-mount compatible with through-hole heatsinking. The case is electrically connected to the Drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main high-side current path | Connected to heatsink; carries full load current and must be isolated from PCB ground unless system design requires common-source configuration. |
| Source (S) | Return path for load current | Reference node for gate drive; internal bond wires contribute LS = 7.5 nH, affecting high-di/dt ringing. |
| Gate (G) | Control electrode | High-impedance input requiring low-inductance routing; Miller capacitance Crss = 410 pF influences dv/dt-induced turn-on risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 4.9 mΩ enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 55 A, reducing heatsink size in space-constrained automotive modules. |
| 175°C junction rating | Validated operation up to 175°C allows direct mounting near hot zones (e.g., under-hood ECUs) without thermal throttling. |
| Repetitive avalanche capability | Tested to 150 mJ per pulse ensures reliability in inductive load switching without external snubbers. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 30–46 ns and Qrr = 30–45 nC reduce cross-conduction losses and EMI in synchronous buck or H-bridge configurations. |
| Low gate charge asymmetry | Qgs/Qgd ratio ≈ 0.67 improves controllability during Miller plateau transition, easing gate driver selection. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP75NF55 | RDS(on) = 6.5 mΩ, VDSS = 55 V, TO-220 package, RθJC = 0.8°C/W | Higher conduction loss and thermal resistance limit continuous current to 60 A at same TC. | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs thermal performance and board space permits larger heatsink. |
| IXTH75N10L2 | RDS(on) = 5.2 mΩ, VDSS = 100 V, TO-247 package, avalanche rated to 220 mJ | Higher voltage rating adds margin for 48 V systems but increases gate charge (Qg = 220 nC). | Selected when future-proofing for higher bus voltages or demanding avalanche stress profiles beyond automotive spec. |
Compared with STP75NF55 and IXTH75N10L2, IRF1405ZL delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), proven automotive qualification, and compact TO-262 footprint-making it ideal for volume production in 12 V/24 V powertrain and chassis modules where thermal density and reliability are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF1405ZL at 100°C case temperature?
The IRF1405ZL supports 270 A pulsed drain current (IDM) and 230 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = 10 V. This derating reflects thermal limits of the TO-262 package and silicon, not gate drive capability. Actual usable current depends on heatsink efficiency and ambient conditions.
Does IRF1405ZL require a gate resistor for automotive PWM applications?
Yes-a gate resistor (typically 4.7–22 Ω) is required to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and Miller effect. The device's Qg = 120–180 nC and Ciss = 4780 pF make it sensitive to parasitic oscillation; improper gate termination can cause false turn-on or accelerated wear.
Can IRF1405ZL replace IRF1404 in existing designs?
Yes, with validation: IRF1405ZL offers lower RDS(on) (4.9 mΩ vs. 5.5 mΩ), identical VDSS (55 V), and same TO-262 package. However, its higher Qg (120–180 nC vs. 110 nC) may increase switching losses unless gate drive strength is confirmed.
Is the body diode in IRF1405ZL suitable for synchronous rectification?
No-it is a standard parasitic body diode optimized for freewheeling, not synchronous rectification. Its trr = 30–46 ns and Qrr = 30–45 nC are acceptable for inductive flyback but lack the soft recovery and low Qrr needed for high-frequency synchronous buck converters.
