Product details
Overview
IRF624S from Vishay Siliconix is a 250 V, 4.4 A N-channel power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, featuring 1.1 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 14 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating up to 4.4 A - designed for high-voltage DC-DC converters, motor control stages, and industrial switching power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRF624S datasheet, IRF624S pinout, IRF624S application, or IRF624S equivalent, key selection considerations include its 250 V blocking capability, surface-mount D2PAK thermal performance (2.5 °C/W RthJC), fast 7 ns turn-on delay, and body diode recovery time under 400 ns - critical for hard-switched flyback and half-bridge topologies.
Technical Context
The IRF624S employs a third-generation planar vertical DMOS structure optimized for ruggedness and switching efficiency. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) enables standard 10 V logic-level drive, while dynamic dv/dt rating of 4.8 V/ns supports stable operation in noisy high-side configurations.
It integrates a monolithic body diode with 1.8 V forward drop at 4.4 A and 200–400 ns reverse recovery time, enabling self-commutated operation in synchronous rectifier and unclamped inductive load circuits without external freewheeling diodes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 250 V - supports primary-side switching in 200 V AC-input offline SMPS and 48 V industrial bus systems. |
| RDS(on) | 1.1 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - limits conduction loss to ≤21 W at 4.4 A continuous drain current in PCB-mounted configuration. |
| Qg | 14 nC - determines gate drive power requirement (~1.4 mW per MHz at 10 V drive) for PWM frequencies up to 500 kHz. |
| EAS | 100 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - enables reliable operation during inductive load turn-off transients without snubber networks. |
| trr | 200–400 ns body diode reverse recovery - reduces switching loss and EMI in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flyback converters. |
| RthJC | 2.5 °C/W - allows 50 W dissipation at TC = 25 °C, supporting high-power density designs with minimal heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction; 3-terminal configuration (G, D, S) compatible with IPC-7351B footprint code SOT227A.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate | High-impedance MOSFET control terminal requiring ≤14 nC charge for full enhancement; connects to PWM driver IC output via low-inductance trace. |
| D | Drain | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically connected to exposed copper pad on underside - must be soldered to large thermal plane for RthJC optimization. |
| S | Source | Power return path and gate reference node; internal source inductance (7.5 nH) impacts high-di/dt switching stability and requires local bypass capacitance. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Supports 4.4 A IAR and 5.0 mJ EAR without derating - eliminates need for overvoltage clamping in solenoid and relay drivers. |
| Dynamic dv/dt immunity | Rated 4.8 V/ns - prevents false turn-on in high-speed half-bridge legs with fast-rising bus voltages. |
| Fast switching | 7 ns td(on), 13 ns tr, 20 ns td(off), 12 ns tf - enables >300 kHz operation in LLC resonant converters with low dead-time requirements. |
| Low gate input resistance | 0.7–5.4 Ω Rg - simplifies gate driver selection and minimizes RC delay in high-frequency gate loops. |
| Surface-mount packaging | D2PAK footprint provides 2× thermal performance vs. TO-220 in same PCB area - ideal for automated assembly and space-constrained industrial modules. |

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP2NK60Z | 600 V VDS, 1.8 Ω RDS(on), 12 nC Qg, TO-220 package | Higher voltage rating but higher on-resistance and through-hole mounting | Preferred where 600 V isolation is required and PCB space allows leaded package. |
| IXTP4N50D2 | 500 V VDS, 2.5 Ω RDS(on), 10 nC Qg, TO-220FP package | Lower gate charge but significantly higher RDS(on) and lower current rating (4 A) | Selected when lower drive power is prioritized over conduction loss in low-duty-cycle applications. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for the IRF624S at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF624S supports 2.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the D2PAK package under sustained power dissipation; actual usable current depends on PCB copper area, ambient temperature, and airflow. The IRF624S maintains safe operation within its SOA curve up to this limit when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 board.
Does the IRF624S have a built-in body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, the IRF624S integrates a monolithic body diode with 1.8 V forward voltage at 4.4 A and 25 °C, 200–400 ns reverse recovery time, and 0.93–1.9 μC reverse recovery charge. This diode enables freewheeling in inductive loads and synchronous rectification in buck converters. The IRF624S body diode is rated for continuous 4.4 A and pulsed 14 A, matching the MOSFET's current capabilities.
Is the IRF624S RoHS-compliant, and what is its lead-free status?
The IRF624S ordering variant IRF624SPbF is lead-free and RoHS-compliant, as confirmed in the Vishay datasheet S20-0683-Rev. D. It uses matte tin plating and meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). The IRF624S part number itself refers to the same RoHS-compliant device; "PbF" suffix explicitly denotes lead-free termination. No exemptions apply - full compliance with Directive 2011/65/EU is verified.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the IRF624S, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The IRF624S has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2.0–4.0 V at ID = 250 μA, allowing reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level drivers. Its 10 V-rated RDS(on) ensures full enhancement without overdriving; gate leakage remains ≤±100 nA at ±20 V. The IRF624S does not require specialized gate drivers - compatibility with microcontroller GPIOs and dedicated MOSFET drivers (e.g., TC4420) is direct and robust.
How does the IRF624S perform in avalanche conditions, and what energy levels are rated?
The IRF624S is repetitively avalanche-rated with 5.0 mJ energy per pulse and 4.4 A peak current, and single-pulse rated for 100 mJ. These values are measured under standardized unclamped inductive test conditions (VDD = 50 V, L = 8.3 mH, IAS = 4.4 A). The IRF624S sustains repeated avalanche events without parameter shift or degradation, enabling snubberless design in relay drivers and solenoid controls where inductive energy must be absorbed internally.
