Product details
Overview
IRF510STRLPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a surface-mount N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for 100 V drain-source voltage, 5.6 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, and 0.54 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It delivers fast switching, repetitive avalanche capability, and 175 °C junction operation-used in DC-DC converters, motor control stages, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRF510STRLPBF datasheet, IRF510STRLPBF pinout, IRF510STRLPBF application, or IRF510STRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 8.3 nC total gate charge, 5.5 V/ns peak diode recovery dv/dt rating, 75 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and PCB-mount thermal resistance of 40 °C/W-critical for high-reliability mid-power switching designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized die layout for low RDS(on) and controlled gate charge distribution. Its dynamic dv/dt rating and unclamped inductive switching (UIS) capability support robust operation in hard-switched topologies without external snubbers.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode with 100–200 ns reverse recovery time and 0.44–0.88 μC Qrr, enabling synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and flyback converters where diode conduction is unavoidable.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - Supports input rails up to 80 V DC with margin for transients in industrial and telecom power systems. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 0.54 Ω - Enables <1.0 W conduction loss at 3.4 A, suitable for medium-current switch-mode applications. |
| Qg | 8.3 nC - Determines gate drive power and switching speed; compatible with standard 1-A peak gate drivers. |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | 5.6 A - Delivers >25 W output in TO-263 surface-mount configuration without forced air cooling. |
| EAS | 75 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive energy spikes in relay driving or solenoid control without failure. |
| TJ max | 175 °C - Allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments like motor drives and LED drivers. |
| PD (TC = 25 °C) | 43 W - Reflects package thermal performance when mounted on heatsink; enables high-duty-cycle operation. |
Pinout & Package

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP55NF06L | 60 V VDS, 55 A ID, 0.014 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package | Higher current, lower voltage rating; through-hole mounting only | Select for higher-current, lower-voltage (<60 V) applications where PCB space permits larger package and thermal mass. |
| IRFZ44NPBF | 55 V VDS, 49 A ID, 0.028 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package | Lower voltage rating, higher current, same logic-level gate drive | Choose when designing for 12–24 V systems requiring higher peak current and lower conduction loss, accepting through-hole assembly. |
Compared with STP55NF06L and IRFZ44NPBF, the IRF510STRLPBF offers superior voltage headroom (100 V) and surface-mount compatibility in D2PAK, making it optimal for space-constrained 24–48 V industrial power stages where avalanche ruggedness and thermal management on PCB are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF510STRLPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF510STRLPBF supports 4.0 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the D2PAK package under sustained high-temperature operation and must be verified against actual board layout and copper area in the final design. The IRF510STRLPBF maintains safe operation within its SOA curve up to this current level when properly heatsinked.
Does IRF510STRLPBF require a gate resistor for stable switching?
Yes, IRF510STRLPBF benefits from an external gate resistor (typically 10–25 Ω) to dampen ringing caused by its 7.5 nH internal source inductance and 4.5 nH drain inductance. The datasheet specifies switching times using Rg = 24 Ω, confirming that uncontrolled gate drive can induce oscillation and increase EMI. Proper gate resistor selection for IRF510STRLPBF balances switching speed against voltage overshoot and EMI compliance.
Is IRF510STRLPBF RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, IRF510STRLPBF is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material categorization per document 99912. The "PbF" suffix explicitly denotes Pb-free termination, and the device uses matte tin plating on leads. Full compliance documentation, including test reports and substance declarations, is available upon request for IRF510STRLPBF.
Can IRF510STRLPBF replace IRF510PBF in existing designs?
No-IRF510STRLPBF is not a drop-in replacement for through-hole IRF510PBF due to fundamental package differences: IRF510STRLPBF uses surface-mount D2PAK (TO-263), while IRF510PBF uses through-hole TO-220. Pinout, thermal path, and PCB footprint are incompatible. However, IRF510STRLPBF may serve as a functional alternative in new designs prioritizing SMT assembly, higher thermal performance on PCB, and improved avalanche ruggedness.
What is the typical body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) for IRF510STRLPBF?
The typical body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) for IRF510STRLPBF is 0.44 μC, with a maximum of 0.88 μC, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 5.6 A, and di/dt = 100 A/μs. This parameter directly impacts switching loss during freewheeling and must be accounted for in efficiency calculations for buck, flyback, and synchronous rectifier topologies using IRF510STRLPBF.
