Product details
Overview
IRF5806 from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a P-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TSOP-6 package, rated for -20 V VDS, 86 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = -4.5 V and ID = -4.0 A, with ultra-low gate charge (Qg = 8.3 nC typ.) and optimized for high-efficiency load switching in portable battery-powered systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRF5806 datasheet, IRF5806 pinout, IRF5806 application, or IRF5806 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -4.0 A continuous drain current at TA = 25°C, -1.2 V diode forward voltage at IS = -2.0 A, 116 ns typical reverse recovery time, and TSOP-6 thermal performance enabling >300% current handling versus SOT-23.
Technical Context
This device operates as a single P-channel power switch with integrated body diode, designed for low-voltage DC load control where fast turn-off (td(off) = 94 ns typ.), low conduction loss, and compact footprint are critical. Its gate threshold voltage range (-0.45 V to -1.2 V) ensures reliable enhancement-mode operation with standard logic-level drive.
The TSOP-6 package features a customized leadframe that reduces RDS(on) by 60% versus comparable SOT-23 devices and delivers 62.5 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on a 1-inch² copper board - enabling higher sustained current in space-constrained PCB layouts.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel load switch applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si2305DS | RDS(on) = 55 mΩ @ -4.5 V but rated only to -16 V VDS; higher Qg (12 nC) | Better conduction loss at lower voltage; less robust for 20 V transients | Prefer when system VIN ≤ 16 V and minimal RDS(on) dominates design priority |
| DMG2305U | RDS(on) = 48 mΩ @ -4.5 V; same -20 V rating; slightly higher Ciss (650 pF) | Higher peak current capability (-4.8 A), but larger gate drive energy required | Choose when >4 A continuous current or tighter thermal margin is needed |
Compared with Si2305DS and DMG2305U, the IRF5806 offers balanced trade-offs: superior voltage rating margin over Si2305DS and lower gate drive demand than DMG2305U, making it optimal for 12–20 V battery management where reliability and drive simplicity are prioritized.

FAQ
Can IRF5806 be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
No. With a gate threshold voltage range of -0.45 V to -1.2 V and requiring -4.5 V for specified RDS(on), IRF5806 needs negative gate drive relative to source. A dedicated P-channel gate driver or level-shifting circuit is required - direct 3.3 V GPIO connection will not achieve full enhancement.
What is the maximum safe continuous current at 70°C ambient temperature?
At TA = 70°C, the datasheet specifies -3.3 A continuous drain current. This accounts for thermal derating: 2.0 W max power at 25°C drops to 1.3 W at 70°C, and RDS(on) increases ~20% due to junction temperature rise, limiting usable current accordingly.
Is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification in a buck converter?
Yes - with trr = 116 ns and Qrr = 90 nC, the body diode supports moderate-frequency (<500 kHz) synchronous rectification. However, its -1.2 V forward voltage at -2.0 A is higher than discrete Schottky diodes, so efficiency gains depend on duty cycle and load current profile.
Does IRF5806 require a gate resistor for stability in switching applications?
A small gate resistor (10–100 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing caused by gate-drain capacitance (Crss = 87 pF) and PCB inductance. The datasheet's switching time test uses RG = 6.0 Ω; omitting it may cause overshoot, shoot-through risk, or EMI in high-dV/dt environments.
