Product details
Overview
IRF4104PBF from Infineon Technologies is a 40V, 75A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring 5.5mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10V, 175°C maximum junction temperature, and rated for repetitive avalanche energy up to 120mJ - deployed in high-current DC-DC converters and motor drive half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the IRF4104PBF datasheet, IRF4104PBF pinout, IRF4104PBF application, or IRF4104PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified RDS(on), gate charge (Qg = 68–100nC), thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.05°C/W), body diode recovery (trr = 23–35ns), and avalanche capability under unclamped inductive switching.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced silicon processing to minimize conduction loss while maintaining robust switching performance. Its low RDS(on) and fast turn-on/turn-off times (td(on) = 16ns, tf = 77ns) support high-frequency synchronous rectification in buck converters operating above 200kHz.
The integrated body diode exhibits low forward voltage (VSD ≤ 1.3V at 75A) and controlled reverse recovery (Qrr = 6.8–10nC), enabling reliable operation in hard-switched topologies without external snubbers. Repetitive avalanche rating is validated per JEDEC JESD24-11 test conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines safe operation in 24V bus systems with transient margin. |
| RDS(on) | 5.5mΩ max @ VGS = 10V - Enables <1.5W conduction loss at 75A, critical for thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 75A - Continuous drain current limited by silicon; requires heatsinking to sustain at full rating. |
| Qg | 68–100nC - Gate drive energy requirement determines driver sizing and switching loss trade-offs at >100kHz. |
| trr | 23–35ns - Fast body diode recovery minimizes shoot-through risk and EMI in bridge configurations. |
| EAS | 120mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating supports unclamped inductive load interruption without failure. |
| RθJC | 1.05°C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct mounting to heatsink with predictable thermal rise. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-pin through-hole configuration. Mounting torque: 10 lbf·in (1.1 N·m); soldering temperature: 300°C for 10 seconds at 1.6mm from case.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path output / heat sink interface | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from chassis unless system ground reference permits. |
| Source | Reference node for gate control and current return | Serves as common return for gate drive and load current; low-inductance layout essential for stable switching. |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <100nC charge; sensitive to ringing - needs local RC snubber or gate resistor ≥6.8Ω. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 4.3mΩ typical at 10V gate drive - reduces I²R losses by >30% vs. legacy 40V MOSFETs in high-current power stages. |
| 175°C rated junction | Extended thermal margin allows sustained operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Validated per JEDEC JESD24-11 - supports robustness in motor drive fault conditions without derating. |
| Fast body diode | trr = 23ns typical - enables efficient freewheeling in synchronous buck and H-bridge inverters without external Schottky. |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant Pb-free plating - meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for reflow compatibility. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushless DC Motor Drive |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP75NF40 | RDS(on) = 7.5mΩ (higher), Qg = 120nC (higher), TJmax = 175°C (same) | Higher conduction and switching loss; suitable only where gate drive strength exceeds 2A peak. | Select if cost-sensitive and thermal margin allows 25% higher RDS(on) penalty. |
| IXTH75N40L2 | RDS(on) = 5.0mΩ (lower), Qg = 145nC (higher), TO-247 package (larger footprint) | Lower on-resistance but slower switching; requires larger PCB area and stronger gate driver. | Select when lowest possible conduction loss dominates over layout space and driver capability. |
Compared with STP75NF40 and IXTH75N40L2, IRF4104PBF delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and TO-220AB form factor - making it preferred for space-constrained, medium-frequency power stages where thermal and gate drive resources are balanced.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The IRF4104PBF supports 120A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C per Figure 9 in the official datasheet, confirmed by thermal derating curves and silicon-limited current rating. This value assumes proper heatsinking and ambient airflow meeting RθJA = 40°C/W (PCB mount) conditions.
Is the TO-220AB package electrically isolated?
No - the metal tab (Drain) is internally connected to the drain terminal and is not electrically isolated from the die. A mica or silicone insulator pad and shoulder washer must be used when mounting to a grounded heatsink to prevent short circuits.
Does IRF4104PBF require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes - a series gate resistor (6.8Ω typical) is required to dampen parasitic oscillation caused by gate-drain capacitance (Crss = 380pF) and PCB trace inductance. Without it, ringing can exceed VGS(th) and cause unintended turn-on or device failure.
Can IRF4104PBF replace IRF4104SPbF in a design?
Yes - IRF4104PBF and IRF4104SPbF share identical electrical specifications and TO-220AB mechanical dimensions; the "S" suffix denotes tape-and-reel packaging, while "PBF" indicates tube packaging. No layout or thermal changes are needed for substitution.
