Product details
Overview
IRF6215L-103 from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-262AA (I2PAK) package, rated for -150 V VDSS, 14 A ID (TC = 25°C), RDS(on) ≤ 0.28 Ω at VGS = -10 V, and featuring 100% avalanche-rated ruggedness. It serves as a high-side load switch in industrial DC power distribution systems with overcurrent protection.
For engineers reviewing the IRF6215L-103 datasheet, IRF6215L-103 pinout, IRF6215L-103 application, or IRF6215L-103 equivalent, key selection criteria include verified avalanche energy rating (EAS = 270 mJ), gate threshold voltage range (VGS(th) = -2.0 to -4.0 V), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 2.5°C/W).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized doping profile to achieve low on-resistance while maintaining robust short-circuit withstand time (tSC ≥ 10 µs at VDD = 75 V). Its gate oxide thickness and threshold voltage stability support reliable operation across -55°C to +175°C junction temperature range.
The device integrates intrinsic body diode with reverse recovery charge Qrr = 190 nC and soft recovery characteristics, enabling use in synchronous rectification and bidirectional current control without external freewheeling diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | -150 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage under reverse bias, defining safe operating range in high-voltage DC bus switching. |
| ID @ TC=25°C | 14 A - Continuous drain current capability at case temperature 25°C, determining thermal derating margin in heatsink-limited designs. |
| RDS(on) | ≤ 0.28 Ω @ VGS = -10 V - On-state resistance directly impacts conduction loss and junction temperature rise during steady-state operation. |
| EAS | 270 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating, enabling reliable operation during inductive load turn-off transients without failure. |
| Qg | 42 nC - Total gate charge required to fully switch device, setting minimum driver output current and gate resistor sizing for 100 kHz PWM. |
| RθJC | 2.5°C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance, used to calculate maximum allowable power dissipation given heatsink interface conditions. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-262AA (I2PAK), surface-mount variant of TO-220 with isolated tab, lead-free plating per J-STD-020, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | High-current power return path | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be mounted to heatsink with electrically insulating thermal interface material. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Provides common return for load current and gate drive loop; low-inductance layout critical for EMI control. |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | Requires negative voltage relative to source to turn on; gate resistor limits dV/dt-induced shoot-through in half-bridge configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% Avalanche Tested | Each unit validated to withstand single-pulse EAS = 270 mJ, eliminating need for external snubbers in relay replacement applications. |
| Enhanced Body Diode Softness | Qrr = 190 nC with soft recovery factor > 1.5, reducing voltage overshoot and EMI during commutation in buck-derived topologies. |
| Extended Temperature Range | Junction operation certified from -55°C to +175°C, supporting deployment in engine bay and industrial motor control enclosures. |
| Lead-Free & RoHS Compliant | Meets JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile for Pb-free soldering, compatible with standard SMT assembly lines without process modification. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Starter | DC Power Distribution Unit |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP16PF12 | VDSS = -120 V, RDS(on) = 0.32 Ω, EAS not specified | Limited to ≤ 80 V systems; unsuitable for 100 V PV arrays or 48 V industrial buses with surge margin requirements | Select only if system max VDS remains below 96 V and avalanche stress is absent. |
| IXTP12P15X | VDSS = -150 V, RDS(on) = 0.30 Ω, Qg = 36 nC, no avalanche rating published | Lower gate charge improves switching speed but lacks documented EAS validation for inductive turn-off | Prefer for high-frequency PWM where avalanche risk is mitigated by external clamping. |
Compared with STP16PF12 and IXTP12P15X, IRF6215L-103 uniquely combines full -150 V rating, sub-0.28 Ω on-resistance, and production-tested avalanche capability-making it the only option qualified for unclamped inductive switching in 48 V+ industrial power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF6215L-103 at 100°C case temperature?
At TC = 100°C, the maximum continuous drain current is 9.5 A, derived from linear derating of the 14 A rating at 25°C using the specified RθJC = 2.5°C/W and maximum TJ = 175°C. This value assumes adequate heatsinking and no pulse duty cycle limitations.
Does IRF6215L-103 require a negative gate drive voltage to operate?
Yes - as a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET, it requires VGS ≤ -2.0 V to begin conducting and VGS ≤ -10 V for full enhancement. Gate drive must reference the source terminal, not ground, especially in high-side configurations where source voltage floats above ground potential.
Can IRF6215L-103 replace IRF6215 in existing PCB layouts?
Yes - IRF6215L-103 shares identical TO-262AA package dimensions, pinout, and electrical specifications with IRF6215. The "L" suffix denotes lead-free construction and same assembly site (Lot Code L), making it a direct drop-in replacement without layout or firmware changes.
Is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters?
Yes - its Qrr = 190 nC and soft recovery behavior enable use in synchronous buck topologies up to 200 kHz. However, external Schottky diodes remain preferred above 300 kHz due to lower forward voltage and faster recovery than the intrinsic body diode.
