Product details
Overview
IRF3709ZSTRLPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 30V N-channel HEXFET Power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, optimized for high-frequency synchronous buck converters in CPU power delivery. It delivers 6.3 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V, 17 nC total gate charge, and 87 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, enabling efficient low-voltage, high-current switching in server VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the IRF3709ZSTRLPBF datasheet, IRF3709ZSTRLPBF pinout, IRF3709ZSTRLPBF application, or IRF3709ZSTRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low RDS(on) at 4.5 V gate drive, fully characterized avalanche capability (EAS = 250 mJ), body diode reverse recovery performance (Qrr = 6.2–9.3 nC), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.89 °C/W).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon HEXFET architecture with integral fast-recovery body diode, designed specifically for synchronous rectification in non-isolated DC/DC converters. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.35–2.25 V) and negative temperature coefficient (−5.5 mV/°C) support stable turn-on across junction temperatures up to 175°C.
The device features low output charge (Qoss = 11 nC) and reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 220 pF), minimizing Cdv/dt induced turn-on risk in high-dV/dt switching nodes. Gate charge partitioning (Qgs1 = 4.4 nC, Qgd = 6.0 nC, Qsw = 7.7 nC) supports precise timing control in dual-MOSFET topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 24 V input rails and transient overshoot margins in point-of-load converters. |
| RDS(on) max @ 4.5 V | 6.3 mΩ - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 40 A RMS in 12 V→1.2 V buck stages with minimal heatsinking. |
| Qg | 17 nC - Low gate drive energy reduces controller loading and enables use with standard PWM ICs (e.g., ISL63xx, MP2315). |
| ID @ TC = 25°C | 87 A - Supports high-current phases in multi-phase CPU VRMs without paralleling. |
| EAS | 250 mJ - Rated single-pulse avalanche energy ensures robustness against inductive switching faults during startup or overload. |

Pinout & Package
IRF3709ZSTRLPBF uses the surface-mount D2PAK (TO-263) package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal performance and mechanical stability on PCBs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| Gate | Control terminal | High-impedance input requiring <10 Ω series gate resistor to damp ringing and limit dI/dt during switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) at 4.5 V | 6.3 mΩ - Enables direct compatibility with 5 V logic-level gate drivers and eliminates need for level-shifting in VRM control ICs. |
| Fully characterized avalanche | EAS = 250 mJ - Guarantees safe operation under unclamped inductive switching without external snubbers. |
| Optimized body diode | Qrr = 6.2–9.3 nC, trr = 16–24 ns - Reduces dead-time losses and improves efficiency in synchronous rectifier mode. |
| Lead-free and RoHS compliant | Pb-free plating and halogen-free molding compound - Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for reflow assembly. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF3708ZSTRLPBF | RDS(on) = 7.5 mΩ @ 4.5 V; Qg = 15 nC; lower current rating (75 A) | Suitable for lower-power VRMs where thermal margin allows higher RDS(on) | Select when cost optimization is prioritized over peak efficiency at >50 A loads. |
| IPB054N03LGATMA1 | RDS(on) = 5.4 mΩ @ 4.5 V; Qg = 22 nC; TSD package (TO-220FP) | Better conduction loss but higher gate drive demand; requires larger gate driver capability | Prefer when lowest possible RDS(on) is critical and gate drive strength permits higher Qg. |
Compared with IRF3709ZSTRLPBF, IRF3708ZSTRLPBF trades 1.2 mΩ higher on-resistance for reduced gate charge and cost, while IPB054N03LGATMA1 improves conduction loss by 15% but increases switching loss due to +30% Qg, demanding careful gate driver sizing.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF3709ZSTRLPBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current at TC = 100°C is 62 A, derated linearly from 87 A at 25°C using the specified derating factor of 0.53 W/°C and RθJC = 1.89 °C/W. This value assumes proper PCB copper area and thermal interface to maintain case temperature.
Does IRF3709ZSTRLPBF have a qualified lead-free reflow profile?
Yes - IRF3709ZSTRLPBF is qualified for Pb-free reflow per IPC-J-STD-020, with peak temperature of 260°C for 10 seconds. The device meets JEDEC Level 1 moisture sensitivity and requires no baking prior to assembly when stored per MSL1 handling guidelines.
Can IRF3709ZSTRLPBF be used in avalanche mode for circuit protection?
Yes - it is fully characterized for single-pulse avalanche with EAS = 250 mJ at TJ = 25°C. Repetitive avalanche is not rated; use only for fault protection during transient events such as inductive kickback or startup surges, with appropriate current limiting and thermal monitoring.
How does the body diode performance compare to discrete Schottky alternatives?
The integrated body diode has VSD ≤ 1.0 V at 17 A and Qrr = 6.2–9.3 nC, offering lower forward drop than most 30 V Schottky diodes at high current but higher Qrr. It eliminates component count and layout complexity in synchronous rectification, though discrete Schottkys may be preferred where ultra-low Qrr is mandatory.
