Product details
Overview
IRF6215STRR from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and load switching in industrial power supplies. It features RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω (max) at VGS = −10 V, continuous drain current ID = −15 A, and operates up to TJ = 175 °C. Used in synchronous rectification circuits of isolated flyback and forward converters.
For engineers reviewing the IRF6215STRR datasheet, IRF6215STRR pinout, IRF6215STRR application, or IRF6215STRR equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage consistency across temperature, avalanche energy rating (EAS = 190 mJ), and SO-8 package thermal resistance (RθJA = 62 °C/W).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell technology with optimized body diode recovery characteristics for reduced switching losses in hard-switched topologies. Its gate charge Qg = 42 nC (typ) and output charge Qoss = 105 nC (typ) support efficient operation at 100–500 kHz switching frequencies.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode with reverse recovery time trr = 110 ns (max) and peak reverse recovery di/dt = 100 A/µs, enabling reliable operation without external snubbers in moderate-frequency SMPS designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −60 V - Maximum blocking voltage in off-state; supports 48 V input bus designs with 20% derating. |
| RDS(on) | 0.18 Ω (max) @ VGS = −10 V - Enables ≤2.7 W conduction loss at 15 A DC load current. |
| ID (continuous) | −15 A @ TC = 25 °C - Rated for PCB-mounted heatsink operation in 12–24 V output rails. |
| Qg | 42 nC (typ) - Determines gate driver power requirement; compatible with standard 1-A peak drivers. |
| EAS | 190 mJ - Specifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling; supports inductive load turn-off without clamping. |
| trr | 110 ns (max) - Limits reverse recovery loss during commutation; reduces need for active snubbing. |
Pinout & Package
IRF6215STRR is housed in a surface-mount SO-8 package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal performance. The package meets JEDEC MS-012AC and is RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | High-current output node; internally connected to exposed pad for low-inductance heat sinking. |
| 6 | Gate (G) | Control terminal; requires −10 V to fully enhance; threshold VGS(th) = −2.0 to −4.0 V. |
| Source (S) | Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive; tied to system ground or floating return in high-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees robustness against inductive switching transients without external protection. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 110 ns enables clean commutation in synchronous rectifier stages of isolated DC-DC. |
| Low gate charge | Qg = 42 nC reduces driver power loss and simplifies gate drive design at >200 kHz. |
| Enhanced thermal pad | Exposed drain pad lowers RθJA to 62 °C/W, supporting 15 A continuous current on 2-layer PCBs. |
Applications
| Industrial Power Supply | Synchronous Rectifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 24 V/15 A isolated DC-DC converter in programmable logic controller (PLC) power module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side synchronous rectifier replacing Schottky diode to reduce conduction loss by 40%. Use Value: Improves full-load efficiency from 89% to 92.5% while maintaining thermal margin below 110 °C case temperature. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side rectification in 48 V input telecom brick with 12 V/20 A output.

Use Value: Enables soft-start via gate ramp control; limits inrush to <3 A over 5 ms with 0.18 Ω RDS(on). |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF6215PBF | Same die, TO-220AB package; RθJA = 62 °C/W vs. SO-8's 62 °C/W but higher RθJC (1.5 °C/W vs. 2.5 °C/W). | Requires through-hole mounting and heatsink; unsuitable for dense SMT layouts. | Select when board space allows mechanical heatsinking and leaded assembly is preferred. |
| SiHP12N60E | N-channel 600 V device; requires high-side gate driver; RDS(on) = 0.42 Ω (higher conduction loss at 15 A). | Used only in N-channel high-side configurations with bootstrap or isolated gate drive. | Choose only if topology mandates N-channel and gate drive complexity is acceptable. |
Compared with IRF6215PBF, IRF6215STRR offers identical electrical specs in a space-saving SO-8 footprint with comparable thermal performance. Against SiHP12N60E, it avoids gate driver overhead and delivers lower conduction loss in P-channel roles like load switching and synchronous rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-source voltage rating for IRF6215STRR?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V. Operation beyond ±15 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. Recommended drive range is −10 V to 0 V for full enhancement and safe turn-off. Gate resistors ≥10 Ω are advised to limit dv/dt-induced ringing during switching transitions.
Does IRF6215STRR require a gate driver IC in typical applications?
Yes - due to its 42 nC gate charge and −10 V turn-on requirement, a dedicated gate driver (e.g., MIC4423, TC4427) is required for reliable switching above 50 kHz. Direct microcontroller GPIO drive is insufficient and risks slow transitions and shoot-through in half-bridge configurations.
Can IRF6215STRR be used in linear mode (as a pass transistor)?
No - it is not characterized or rated for linear (ohmic) operation. The Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve shows limited DC capability beyond 1 ms pulse width. Linear use risks thermal runaway due to positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) and inadequate SOA margin at VDS > 10 V.
Is the SO-8 package of IRF6215STRR lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - IRF6215STRR carries the "P" suffix per Infineon's part numbering convention, indicating lead-free (Pb-free) construction and full compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The package uses matte tin plating and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1.
