Product details
Overview
IRF6215LPBF from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-262 (I2PAK) package, rated for -150 V VDSS, 12 A ID (TC = 25°C), and RDS(on) ≤ 0.28 Ω at VGS = -10 V. It serves as a high-side load switch in industrial power supplies and motor control H-bridge legs.
For engineers reviewing the IRF6215LPBF datasheet, IRF6215LPBF pinout, IRF6215LPBF application, or IRF6215LPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its negative gate threshold (–2.0 to –4.0 V), low gate charge (Qg = 42 nC), and avalanche-rated ruggedness for inductive switching.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized doping profile to achieve stable RDS(on) over temperature and robust short-circuit withstand time (tSC = 10 µs at TJ = 25°C). Its gate oxide thickness and field plate design support reliable operation under repetitive unclamped inductive switching (UIS).
The device features integrated body diode with reverse recovery time trr = 170 ns and Qrr = 290 nC at IF = 12 A, enabling use in synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths without external diode addition.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | –150 V: Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for high-side switch in 100–120 VAC input-derived rails. |
| RDS(on) | ≤ 0.28 Ω @ VGS = –10 V: Enables <1.0 W conduction loss at 6 A continuous drain current. |
| Qg | 42 nC: Determines gate drive energy requirement; compatible with standard 1-A peak gate drivers. |
| trr | 170 ns: Limits diode reverse recovery losses during hard-switched PWM transitions. |
| EAS | 320 mJ: Specifies single-pulse avalanche energy rating for protection against inductive kickback. |
| TJ max | 175 °C: Supports operation in sealed enclosures with limited airflow up to 125 °C ambient. |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-262 (I2PAK), surface-mount variant of TO-220 with isolated tab, lead-free and RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path output | Electrically connected to metal tab; requires insulated mounting when used on heatsink. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive | Common return for load current and gate driver ground reference. |
| Gate | Control terminal | High-impedance input requiring <42 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested | Guarantees avalanche capability per JEDEC JESD22-A116 without derating. |
| Low gate charge | Reduces switching losses and allows use with low-power gate drivers in space-constrained designs. |
| Fast body diode | Enables efficient freewheeling in half-bridge topologies without snubber networks. |
| Lead-free and RoHS compliant | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU; no exemption required for Pb content. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drives | DC-DC Converter High-Side Switch |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Half-bridge leg in 24–48 V BLDC motor controllers driving fans or pumps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch controlling phase voltage polarity and timing via PWM gate signal. Use Value: Low RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss at 12 A peak; fast body diode reduces shoot-through risk during dead-time. | Use Scenario: Synchronous rectifier in non-isolated buck converter for FPGA core voltage regulation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Active switch replacing Schottky diode to reduce forward voltage drop and improve efficiency. Use Value: RDS(on) ≤ 0.28 Ω cuts conduction loss by >40% vs. 0.5 V Schottky at 8 A load. |
| Uninterruptible Power Supplies | Automotive Body Control Modules |
Use Scenario: Battery backup path selector in line-interactive UPS with automatic transfer switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-polarity protected high-side switch isolating battery from inverter input during AC mode. Use Value: –150 V rating accommodates 48 V battery stack + surge margin; avalanche rating handles load dump transients. | Use Scenario: Window lift/lower circuit in door module with overcurrent and thermal shutdown. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Load switch with integrated safe operating area (SOA) compliance for 12 V automotive battery interface. Use Value: 175 °C junction rating ensures reliability under hood temperatures; 100% UIS test covers load dump events. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP12PF06 | VDSS = –60 V, RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω @ –10 V, Qg = 35 nC | Limited to ≤60 V systems; lower gate charge reduces drive loss but insufficient for 100 VAC-derived rails. | Select only if system maximum bus voltage remains below 60 V and thermal margin permits higher RDS(on) at elevated TJ. |
| IXTP12P15X4 | VDSS = –150 V, RDS(on) = 0.25 Ω @ –10 V, Qg = 38 nC, TO-220 package | Same voltage rating and improved RDS(on), but TO-220 requires through-hole assembly and lacks isolated tab. | Prefer for prototyping or legacy PCBs with TO-220 footprints; avoid where surface-mount and thermal isolation are mandatory. |
Compared with STP12PF06 and IXTP12P15X4, IRF6215LPBF offers optimal balance of 150 V rating, surface-mount TO-262 packaging with isolated tab, and proven avalanche ruggedness-critical for industrial motor drives and UPS systems with inductive loads.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF6215LPBF at 100°C case temperature?
At TC = 100°C, the maximum continuous drain current is 8.5 A, derated from 12 A at 25°C per the SOA curve. This limit ensures safe operation within the device's thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.5°C/W) and prevents junction temperature exceedance under sustained load.
Does IRF6215LPBF require a gate resistor for ESD protection?
No dedicated gate resistor is required for ESD protection, as the device incorporates internal gate protection diodes. However, a 10–47 Ω series gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing and limit peak gate current during fast switching, especially with high-speed drivers.
Can IRF6215LPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, it supports paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on), which promotes current sharing. Designers must match gate drive loop inductance and ensure symmetrical PCB layout; thermal coupling between devices should be minimized to avoid localized hot spots.
Is the metal tab 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. When mounted to a heatsink, electrical isolation using mica or polymer insulators is mandatory unless the heatsink is fully floating or referenced to drain potential.
