Product details
Overview
IRF614S from Vishay Siliconix is a 250 V, 2.7 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package, featuring 2.0 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 8.2 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating-designed for high-voltage DC-DC converters, motor control stages, and industrial power switching.
For engineers reviewing the IRF614S datasheet, IRF614S pinout, IRF614S application, or IRF614S equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping, validated thermal and switching parameters, confirmed avalanche capability, and real-world design context for high-reliability 250 V power stage implementation.
Technical Context
The IRF614S employs a third-generation silicon process optimized for ruggedized high-voltage operation, with dynamic dv/dt rating up to 4.8 V/ns and intrinsic body diode recovery time (trr) of 190–390 ns at 2.7 A. Its low gate charge (Qg = 8.2 nC) and fast switching (td(on) = 7.0 ns, tf = 7.0 ns) support efficient hard-switched topologies.
Thermally, it delivers 36 W maximum power dissipation at TC = 25 °C and 3.1 W in PCB-mount configuration, with RthJC = 3.5 °C/W enabling direct heatsink attachment via the exposed drain tab-critical for sustained 2.7 A continuous conduction in compact industrial modules.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 250 V - Supports input rails up to 200 V DC with 25 % safety margin in offline SMPS and industrial HV bus interfaces. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 2.0 Ω - Enables ≤ 14.6 W conduction loss at 2.7 A, suitable for medium-power switching where thermal headroom is constrained. |
| Qg | 8.2 nC - Low gate drive energy reduces gate driver stress and enables use with standard 1 A peak drivers in <100 kHz applications. |
| EAS | 61 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse unclamped inductive energy handling supports robustness against load dump or inductive kick in relay/motor drives. |
| tr/tf | 7.6 ns / 7.0 ns - Fast edge rates minimize switching transition losses but require careful layout to suppress EMI in noise-sensitive environments. |
| TJ Range | −55 °C to +150 °C - Qualified for extended temperature operation in automotive under-hood auxiliary supplies and industrial PLC power stages. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain tab for thermal and electrical connection; 3-pin configuration (G, D, S) with G and S on leads, D on large copper pad.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level drive; threshold voltage 2.0–4.0 V ensures reliable turn-on with standard microcontroller GPIO or gate drivers. |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Exposed metal tab-must be electrically connected to high-voltage rail and thermally coupled to heatsink; carries full load current and avalanche energy. |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Common source connection for gate drive reference and current sensing; internal source inductance (LS = 7.5 nH) impacts diode reverse recovery behavior. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for 3.6 mJ repetitive avalanche energy (EAR)-enables reliable operation in inductive load switching without external snubbers. |
| Dynamic dv/dt immunity | 4.8 V/ns rated dv/dt-prevents false turn-on during high-slew-rate transients in half-bridge or phase-leg configurations. |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | Qgd = 4.5 nC, Qgs = 1.8 nC → ratio ≈ 2.5-reduces Miller effect, improving stability during high-speed switching with resistive gate drives. |
| Body diode trr & Qrr | trr = 190–390 ns, Qrr = 0.64–1.3 μC-enables synchronous rectification in flyback/forward converters with predictable recovery loss. |
| PCB-mount power rating | 3.1 W at TA = 25 °C-validates use in space-constrained designs without dedicated heatsink, provided 1" FR-4 copper area is allocated. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Starter | Offline AC-DC Adapter |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Controlling 24–48 V DC brushed motors in factory automation actuators with frequent start-stop cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in H-bridge half-leg; handles 2.7 A continuous and 8 A pulsed loads with built-in avalanche energy absorption.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP2NK25Z | 250 V, 2.5 A, RDS(on) = 2.4 Ω, Qg = 6.5 nC, TO-220 package | Higher RDS(on) and through-hole mounting limit thermal performance in surface-mount designs requiring >2 W dissipation. | Prefer IRF614S when D2PAK thermal interface and 2.0 Ω RDS(on) are needed for PCB-mount efficiency. |
| IXTP2N250 | 250 V, 2.0 A, RDS(on) = 3.5 Ω, Qg = 5.5 nC, TO-220 package | Lower current rating and higher on-resistance increase conduction loss by ~75 % at 2.7 A; no avalanche rating specified. | Choose IRF614S for applications demanding 2.7 A continuous current, 61 mJ EAS, and surface-mount assembly. |
Compared with STP2NK25Z and IXTP2N250, the IRF614S offers superior thermal management via D2PAK mounting, lower conduction loss at rated current, and documented repetitive avalanche capability-making it the preferred choice for compact, high-reliability 250 V switching stages where board space and ruggedness are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for the IRF614S at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF614S supports 1.7 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. Designers must verify junction temperature rise using RthJC = 3.5 °C/W and actual power dissipation to ensure TJ remains ≤ 150 °C. The IRF614S maintains safe operation within this envelope when mounted on appropriate copper area or heatsink.
Does the IRF614S have a specified avalanche energy rating?
Yes, the IRF614S is explicitly rated for repetitive avalanche energy (EAR) of 3.6 mJ and single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 61 mJ under defined test conditions (VDD = 50 V, IAS = 2.7 A, L = 13 mH). These values are measured per JEDEC standards and confirm the device's ability to absorb inductive energy without failure-critical for motor drive and relay control applications. The IRF614S datasheet documents these ratings in Section "Absolute Maximum Ratings" and Figure 12c.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the IRF614S?
The IRF614S has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2.0 V to 4.0 V at VDS = VGS and ID = 250 μA. This ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level gate drivers while maintaining noise immunity. The typical value falls near 3.0 V, and the full min/max spread is guaranteed across temperature and process variation. This specification is directly applicable to the IRF614S and appears in the "Specifications" table on page 2 of the Vishay datasheet 91026.
Can the IRF614S be used in surface-mount designs without a heatsink?
The IRF614S can operate without an external heatsink in low-duty-cycle or low-power applications, delivering up to 3.1 W in PCB-mount configuration (1" square FR-4). However, at its full 2.7 A continuous rating, thermal analysis shows junction temperature exceeds 150 °C without supplemental cooling. For sustained operation, the IRF614S requires either a heatsink attached to its exposed drain tab or generous copper pour with thermal vias. The IRF614S thermal data assumes proper soldering to recommended pad dimensions per Vishay AN826.
Is the IRF614S RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
The IRF614S ordering variant IRF614STRRPbF is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material declaration standard. It uses matte tin plating and green molding compound. Non-RoHS versions (e.g., IRF614SPbF) contain lead terminations and are not halogen-free. Always verify the suffix: "-GE3" or "-TRRPbF" indicates RoHS/halogen-free compliance. The IRF614S product marking and packaging reflect this distinction per Vishay document 91026.
