Product details
Overview
IRF40B207 from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 40V, 95A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, optimized for high-current switching in motor drives and DC/DC converters. It delivers typ. 3.6 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, supports 380 A pulsed drain current, and features enhanced body diode dV/dt (6.4 V/ns) and dI/dt capability for robust synchronous rectification and half-bridge operation.
For engineers reviewing the IRF40B207 datasheet, IRF40B207 pinout, IRF40B207 application, or IRF40B207 equivalent, this device is selected for brushed/BLDC motor control, OR-ing power switches, resonant-mode supplies, and inverters where low conduction loss, avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 85–167 mJ), and fast switching (Qg = 45–68 nC) are critical.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized cell layout to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining strong dynamic dV/dt immunity and fully characterized avalanche SOA. Its gate threshold voltage (2.2–3.9 V) enables reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level drivers.
The device integrates a fast, soft-recovery body diode (trr = 21–22 ns, Qrr = 13–15 nC) and exhibits low Coss eff. (TR) = 498 pF, supporting high-frequency ZVS/ZCS topologies in DC/AC inverters and resonant converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage; suitable for 24 V and 36 V battery systems and 48 V bus architectures. |
| RDS(on) max | 4.5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 57 A - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 50 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| ID continuous | 95 A @ TC = 25 °C - Supports high-power motor drive stages without parallel devices. |
| EAS | 85 mJ (low-energy test) / 167 mJ (high-energy test) - Confirmed unclamped inductive switching robustness for bridge-leg fault tolerance. |
| Qg | 45–68 nC - Gate charge range defines driver strength requirement; compatible with common 1–2 A peak gate drivers. |
| trr | 21–22 ns - Fast reverse recovery minimizes switching loss and EMI in synchronous rectifier mode. |
| dV/dt rating | 6.4 V/ns - High diode recovery dv/dt withstand ensures stability in hard-switched and high-dV/dt environments. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard through-hole mounting, and 1.1 N·m screw torque rating. Thermal resistance RθJC = 1.8 °C/W enables efficient heat transfer to heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives gate drive signal; requires ≤20 V absolute max; 2.0 Ω internal gate resistance limits ringing. |
| D (Drain) | High-side power output | Connected to heatsink tab; carries full load current and must be electrically isolated if heatsink is grounded. |
| S (Source) | Power return/reference node | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; source inductance directly impacts switching speed and oscillation risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Enhanced body diode dV/dt and dI/dt capability | 6.4 V/ns dv/dt and 860 A/µs di/dt rating enable stable operation in high-speed synchronous rectification without snubbers. |
| Fully characterized avalanche SOA | Single-pulse EAS validated up to 167 mJ under defined L, RG, and IAS conditions - supports design margin in inductive fault events. |
| Low effective output capacitance | Coss eff. (TR) = 498 pF - Reduces turn-off energy and improves zero-voltage switching performance in resonant topologies. |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | Halogen-free construction meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 - supports lead-free reflow and long-term reliability. |
Applications
| Brushed Motor Drive | BLDC Motor Drive |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: H-bridge control of 24–36 V DC motors in power tools and industrial actuators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side and high-side switching element in full-bridge topology; handles bidirectional current and regenerative braking. Use Value: 3.6 mΩ RDS(on) reduces I²R losses during high-current stall conditions, improving thermal headroom and efficiency. |
Use Scenario: Six-step commutation in 3-phase BLDC inverters for e-bikes and HVAC fans. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power switch in each leg; operates at 10–20 kHz PWM with fast turn-off (tf = 19 ns) to minimize dead-time loss. Use Value: Low Qgd/Qg ratio and soft-recovery body diode suppress shoot-through risk and reduce EMI during phase transitions. |
| Synchronous Rectification | OR-ing Power Switch |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active replacement for Schottky diode; driven synchronously with primary-side controller timing. Use Value: 0.9–1.3 V VSD forward drop at 57 A cuts conduction loss by >50% vs. 45 V Schottky, improving full-load efficiency. |
Use Scenario: Redundant 24 V power supply OR-ing in industrial PLC backplanes and medical equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional power path switch; blocks reverse current while conducting forward with minimal voltage drop. Use Value: 40 V VDSS and 95 A ID support hot-swap insertion and transient overload without latch-up or thermal runaway. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP90NF03L | RDS(on) = 4.5 mΩ max @ 10 V, but lower VDSS = 30 V; higher Qg = 85 nC. | Limited to ≤24 V systems; slower switching increases loss in >100 kHz designs. | Acceptable only in 24 V brushed motor drives where voltage margin and switching frequency are constrained. |
| IXTP40N40P | VDSS = 400 V, RDS(on) = 100 mΩ - orders-of-magnitude higher on-resistance and gate charge. | Designed for high-voltage flyback/LLC, not low-voltage high-current switching. | Not functionally substitutable: unsuitable for 40 V, 95 A applications due to excessive conduction and switching loss. |
Compared with STP90NF03L and IXTP40N40P, the IRF40B207 uniquely balances 40 V rating, sub-5 mΩ RDS(on), and 68 nC gate charge-enabling high-efficiency, high-current switching in battery-powered and bridge-based topologies where both voltage headroom and thermal performance are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and thermal resistance of IRF40B207?
The IRF40B207 has a maximum operating junction temperature of +175 °C and a junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC) of 1.8 °C/W. This value is measured at approximately 90 °C junction temperature and assumes proper mechanical mounting with 1.1 N·m screw torque on a flat, greased heatsink surface.
Can IRF40B207 be used in synchronous rectification without external diode clamping?
Yes-the device's body diode is fully characterized for reverse recovery (trr = 21–22 ns, Qrr = 13–15 nC) and rated for 6.4 V/ns dv/dt, enabling direct use in synchronous rectifier configurations without external clamping diodes in properly designed gate-drive circuits.
Is IRF40B207 suitable for 48 V battery systems?
No-its 40 V VDSS rating provides insufficient voltage margin for 48 V nominal systems, which commonly experience transients exceeding 60 V. It is appropriate for 24 V and 36 V battery architectures where worst-case bus voltage remains ≤40 V.
What gate drive voltage is required to achieve specified RDS(on)?
A minimum VGS of 10 V is required to achieve the datasheet-specified RDS(on) of 3.6 mΩ (typ.) and 4.5 mΩ (max). At VGS = 6.0 V, RDS(on) rises to 5.4 mΩ max, increasing conduction loss significantly in high-current operation.
