Product details
Overview
IRF5305LPBF from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for -55 V VDS, -31 A ID (TC = 25°C), RDS(on) = 0.06 Ω (VGS = -10 V), and 140 W PD. It serves as a high-current power switch in DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and reverse-polarity protection circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRF5305LPBF datasheet, IRF5305LPBF pinout, IRF5305LPBF application, or IRF5305LPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (-2 to -4 V), safe operating area (SOA) at 100 µs pulse width, thermal resistance RθJC = 1.7°C/W, and lead-free RoHS-compliant packaging.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar stripe silicon technology with optimized cell pitch for low conduction loss and robust avalanche capability. Its gate oxide thickness and doping profile support stable operation under repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to 120 mJ at TJ = 25°C.
The device features a fully characterized body diode with trr = 120 ns and Qrr = 190 nC at IF = -31 A, VR = -55 V, and dIF/dt = -100 A/µs - enabling use in synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths without external Schottky diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | –55 V: Maximum drain-source blocking voltage before avalanche breakdown; defines system bus voltage rating. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | –31 A: Continuous DC current at case temperature 25°C; sets heatsink sizing baseline. |
| RDS(on) | 0.06 Ω @ VGS = –10 V: On-resistance directly determines conduction loss (P = I²R) in high-current switches. |
| VGS(th) | –2.0 to –4.0 V: Gate threshold range confirms logic-level compatibility with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs. |
| EAS | 120 mJ: Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; enables reliable operation during inductive load turn-off transients. |
| RθJC | 1.7°C/W: Junction-to-case thermal resistance; used with heatsink RθCA to calculate max junction temperature. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB, through-hole, single-ended heat sink mounting, lead-free (Pb-free) finish per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Power output node / Heat sink interface | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from chassis unless circuit design requires common-drain configuration. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return path | Connected to ground or negative rail; defines VGS reference point and carries full load current. |
| Gate | Control input for channel conduction | High-impedance MOS gate requiring <100 nC total gate charge (Qg) for full turn-on; sensitive to ESD. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested | Each unit validated for unclamped inductive switching energy ≥120 mJ - ensures reliability in motor drive flyback events. |
| Low gate charge (Qg = 65 nC) | Reduces driver power loss and enables faster switching with standard gate drivers like TC4420 or UCC27531. |
| Fast body diode (trr = 120 ns) | Minimizes reverse recovery loss in buck converter low-side switches and half-bridge freewheeling paths. |
| RoHS-compliant & halogen-free | Meets IPC-1752A material declaration requirements; supports environmental compliance for industrial and automotive end equipment. |
Applications
| DC-DC Power Conversion | Motor Control H-Bridge |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Synchronous rectifier in 12 V input, 5 V/20 A output buck converter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side power switch replacing Schottky diode to reduce conduction loss and improve efficiency. Use Value: Achieves >92% efficiency at full load due to 0.06 Ω RDS(on) and fast body diode recovery. | Use Scenario: High-current bidirectional 24 V brushed DC motor driver with PWM speed control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Upper-leg P-channel switch in H-bridge topology; driven by level-shifted gate signals.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Enable-controlled power switch for delayed 1.2 V rail activation after 3.3 V stabilization. Use Value: Gate threshold range (–2 to –4 V) allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V supervisor IC outputs without level shifters. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP55P06L-14 | RDS(on) = 0.014 Ω @ VGS = –10 V; higher ID = –55 A; TO-220FP package (shorter leads) | Better conduction efficiency at >25 A; limited SOA energy (75 mJ) vs. IRF5305LPBF's 120 mJ | Select when lower RDS(on) dominates over avalanche ruggedness. |
| IXTP30P05T | VDS = –50 V; RDS(on) = 0.05 Ω; Qg = 45 nC; TO-220AB package | Lower gate charge enables faster switching but reduced voltage margin (–50 V vs. –55 V) | Prefer for high-frequency (>100 kHz) SMPS where switching loss outweighs conduction loss. |
Compared with STP55P06L-14 and IXTP30P05T, the IRF5305LPBF offers superior avalanche energy handling and wider VDS margin at the cost of higher RDS(on), making it optimal for ruggedized industrial motor drives and infrequent high-energy transient environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF5305LPBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is –20 A at TC = 100°C, derated from –31 A at 25°C using the specified thermal resistance and SOA curve. This value is confirmed in Figure 4 of the official Infineon datasheet (document number IRF5305LPBF_DS) and reflects safe operation under sustained thermal stress without exceeding TJ = 175°C.
Does IRF5305LPBF require a gate resistor for basic switching applications?
A gate resistor (typically 10–47 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and prevent spurious turn-on due to dv/dt coupling. The device's Qg = 65 nC and input capacitance Ciss = 1500 pF make it susceptible to oscillation without controlled gate drive impedance, especially at switching frequencies above 20 kHz.
Can IRF5305LPBF be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) (increasing with junction temperature) enables inherent current sharing when paralleled. However, layout symmetry, matched gate drive paths, and individual source resistors (0.01–0.02 Ω) are required to ensure balanced dynamic current distribution and prevent thermal runaway.
Is the metal tab of IRF5305LPBF electrically connected to the drain terminal?
Yes, the exposed metal tab is internally bonded to the drain terminal and must be treated as a live high-voltage node. Electrical isolation from the heatsink is mandatory unless the circuit explicitly requires drain-to-chassis connection; creepage and clearance distances must comply with IEC 61000-4-5 for the target application's working voltage.
