Product details
Overview
IRF3711L from Infineon Technologies is a 20 V, 110 A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET Power MOSFET in TO-262 (ISOTOP) package, optimized as a synchronous rectifier FET in high-frequency DC-DC converters for telecom and server power supplies. It features 6.0 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 4.5 V gate drive capability, and fully characterized avalanche performance up to 460 mJ.
For engineers reviewing the IRF3711L datasheet, IRF3711L pinout, IRF3711L application, or IRF3711L equivalent, key selection criteria include low RDS(on) at 4.5 V, pulsed drain current rating of 440 A, thermal resistance RθJC = 1.04 °C/W, and body diode reverse recovery charge Qrr = 61–92 nC under standard test conditions.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon HEXFET architecture with optimized cell pitch and trench-assisted source metallization to achieve ultra-low on-resistance and fast switching. Its gate charge profile (Qg = 29–44 nC, Qgd = 8.9 nC) supports efficient operation in synchronous buck topologies above 300 kHz.
The device integrates a robust body diode with VSD = 0.82–0.88 V at IS = 30 A and trr = 48–75 ns, enabling reliable capacitive-induced turn-on immunity and reduced cross-conduction loss in hard-switched synchronous rectification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 20 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V input rails and transient margin in telecom/server point-of-load converters |
| RDS(on) max | 6.0 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 110 A continuous drain current |
| ID @ TC = 25°C | 110 A - Supports high-current output stages without paralleling in single-phase 50–100 A VRMs |
| EAS | 460 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive energy during startup/fault in synchronous buck converters |
| Qrr | 61–92 nC - Low reverse recovery charge minimizes diode conduction loss and EMI in high-dV/dt environments |
| RθJC | 1.04 °C/W - Enables direct heatsink mounting for thermal management in compact 1U server power supplies |
| tr/tf | 220 ns / 12 ns - Fast switching transitions reduce overlap loss while maintaining gate drive simplicity |
Pinout & Package
IRF3711L is housed in a TO-262 (ISOTOP) package with isolated metal tab for direct heatsink mounting and four leads: Gate (Pin 1), Drain (Pin 2), Source (Pin 3), and Drain (Pin 4). The dual-drain configuration improves current sharing and reduces package inductance in high-di/dt applications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - Gate | Control electrode | Receives 4.5–10 V logic-level gate drive; low input capacitance (Ciss = 2980 pF) enables fast turn-on with minimal driver stress |
| 2 - Drain | Main current path anode | Connected to input rail or transformer secondary; electrically tied to metal tab for low-inductance power delivery |
| 3 - Source | Main current path cathode / reference node | Serves as switch node return and gate drive reference; low parasitic inductance critical for synchronous rectifier stability |
| 4 - Drain | Secondary current path anode | Parallel drain connection reduces effective package resistance and improves thermal coupling to heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) at 4.5 V | 8.5 mΩ - Enables full-rated conduction with 5 V microcontroller or PWM controller gate drive |
| Fully characterized avalanche | 460 mJ single-pulse rating - Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching |
| Capacitive-induced turn-on immunity | Validated via dV/dt testing - Prevents false triggering during high-slew-rate node transitions in synchronous rectifiers |
| Low gate-to-drain charge | Qgd = 8.9 nC - Reduces Miller effect and improves controllability during hard switching |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF3710ZPbF | 20 V, 120 A, RDS(on) = 5.3 mΩ @ 10 V, TO-220AB package | Lacks dual-drain configuration and has higher RθJA (62 °C/W); unsuitable for direct heatsink mounting | Preferred where board space allows TO-220 and lower RDS(on) outweighs thermal packaging constraints |
| SiR872DP-T1-GE3 | 20 V, 100 A, RDS(on) = 5.8 mΩ @ 4.5 V, PowerPAK SO-8 package | Surface-mount only; no isolated tab; limited to <30 A continuous due to thermal limits | Selected for compact, low-profile designs where PCB copper area replaces heatsink and gate drive is 4.5 V only |
Compared with IRF3711L, IRF3710ZPbF offers marginally lower on-resistance but lacks the TO-262's dual-drain thermal path and heatsink interface, while SiR872DP-T1-GE3 provides superior 4.5 V drive performance in SMT format but cannot sustain 110 A continuously without forced cooling.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF3711L at 100°C case temperature?
The IRF3711L supports 69 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = 10 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-262 package and ensures safe operation within its 120 W PD limit at 25°C case temperature.
Does IRF3711L have a built-in body diode, and what are its key characteristics?
Yes, IRF3711L integrates a monolithic p-n junction body diode with forward voltage VSD = 0.82–0.88 V at IS = 30 A and TJ = 25–125°C. Its reverse recovery time trr is 48–75 ns and Qrr is 61–98 nC, enabling use in synchronous rectification without external diodes.
Can IRF3711L be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
No - the gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 1.0 to 3.0 V, but RDS(on) rises sharply below 4.5 V (6.2–8.5 mΩ). Reliable switching requires ≥4.5 V gate drive; a level-shifting gate driver is necessary for 3.3 V logic interfaces.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RθJC) for IRF3711L?
The junction-to-case thermal resistance RθJC is 1.04 °C/W, measured under standard test conditions with flat, greased heatsink contact. This value is critical for calculating maximum allowable power dissipation when mounted to a heatsink with known thermal interface resistance.
