Product details
Overview
IRF6616TR1PBF from Infineon Technologies is a 40V, 19A N-channel Power MOSFET in DirectFET® MX package, optimized for high-frequency synchronous rectification with RDS(on) = 3.7 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V and total gate charge Qg = 29 nC. It delivers ultra-low conduction and switching losses in DC-DC converters powering modern processors and secondary-side rectification up to 100W.
For engineers reviewing the IRF6616TR1PBF datasheet, IRF6616TR1PBF pinout, IRF6616TR1PBF application, or IRF6616TR1PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its dual-sided cooling capability, 1.4°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 4.6 mΩ RDS(on) at 4.5 V drive, low 285 pF Crss, and compatibility with standard SMT reflow processes per AN-1035.
Technical Context
The IRF6616TR1PBF uses trench-gated HEXFET® silicon combined with copper-clad DirectFET® MX packaging to achieve simultaneous low RDS(on) and low Qg, enabling high-efficiency operation above 500 kHz. Its gate threshold voltage (1.35–2.25 V) supports 4.5 V logic-level drive while maintaining robust noise immunity.
Thermal performance is enhanced by direct top-side (Drain) and bottom-side (Source) thermal paths, reducing RθJC to 1.4°C/W and improving thermal transfer by 80% versus SO-8 equivalents. The body diode exhibits fast reverse recovery (trr = 15–23 ns, Qrr = 33–50 nC), critical for synchronous buck and LLC resonant converter secondary-side operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V maximum - supports 30 V bus systems with sufficient voltage headroom for transient spikes in non-isolated buck converters. |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 3.7 mΩ typical - enables <1 W conduction loss at 19 A continuous drain current in compact 100W power stages. |
| RDS(on) @ 4.5 V | 4.6 mΩ typical - ensures reliable turn-on with 5 V or 4.5 V gate drivers without requiring level-shifting circuitry. |
| Qg | 29 nC typical - reduces switching energy loss and driver power demand in high-frequency (>1 MHz) applications. |
| Crss | 285 pF typical - minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk and improves controllability during hard-switching transitions. |
| trr | 15 ns typical - limits body diode reverse recovery loss and EMI generation in synchronous rectifier configurations. |
| RθJC | 1.4°C/W - allows efficient heat extraction from both top (Drain) and bottom (Source) surfaces via PCB copper and clip heatsinks. |
Pinout & Package
IRF6616TR1PBF uses the DirectFET® MX surface-mount package (6.25 × 4.80 × 0.35 mm), featuring exposed Drain on top and Source on bottom for dual-sided thermal management. No separate gate pad - gate connects exclusively through the side-mounted terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Top Metal (Drain) | Drain connection / Thermal path | Electrically and thermally connected to internal drain region; serves as primary heat dissipation surface when mounted to heatsink or thermal pad. |
| Bottom Metal (Source) | Source connection / Thermal path | Electrically tied to source terminals and provides secondary thermal interface to PCB copper; enables symmetric thermal spreading. |
| Side Terminal (Gate) | Gate control input | Low-inductance lateral connection for fast, low-loss gate driving; isolated from Drain/Source metallization to prevent coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low package inductance | Minimizes voltage overshoot and ringing during hard switching, enabling stable operation without snubbers in 500 kHz–1 MHz converters. |
| Dual-sided cooling | Reduces effective thermal resistance by 80% vs. SO-8, allowing >2× higher power density in space-constrained server VRMs and telecom PSUs. |
| Optimized for 4.5 V drive | Guarantees full enhancement at logic-level gate voltages, eliminating need for bootstrap or charge-pump circuits in low-voltage synchronous rectifiers. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 9.4 nC / 29 nC ≈ 0.32 - improves switching controllability and reduces sensitivity to Miller feedback in high-dV/dt environments. |
Applications
| Server Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs) | Telecom DC-DC Converters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF6626TR1PBF | Higher RDS(on) (4.2 mΩ @ 10 V), same package and Qg; rated for 30 V instead of 40 V. | Limited to ≤24 V bus systems; unsuitable where 30–40 V transients occur (e.g., automotive 24 V or industrial 36 V inputs). | Select only if system VDS stress remains below 30 V and cost sensitivity outweighs efficiency gain from lower RDS(on). |
| SiR626DP-T1-GE3 | 40 V, 3.8 mΩ @ 10 V, 31 nC Qg, PowerPAK® SO-8 - higher RθJA (45°C/W) and no dual-sided cooling. | Requires larger PCB copper area or heatsink for equivalent thermal performance; less suitable for ultra-thin or high-power-density layouts. | Prefer when legacy SO-8 footprint compatibility is mandatory and thermal budget permits higher junction temperature rise. |
Compared with IRF6626TR1PBF and SiR626DP-T1-GE3, the IRF6616TR1PBF offers superior thermal performance (1.4°C/W vs. ≥2.5°C/W), lower switching loss (29 nC vs. ≥31 nC), and true dual-sided cooling - making it optimal for high-frequency, high-power-density synchronous rectification where board space and thermal headroom are constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 70°C ambient temperature?
The IRF6616TR1PBF supports 19 A continuous drain current at TA = 25°C and 15 A at TA = 70°C when mounted on a 1 in² copper board per datasheet conditions. Derating follows linear 1.8 W/°C beyond 70°C ambient, limited by package thermal resistance and PCB layout.
Is the IRF6616TR1PBF RoHS compliant and lead-free?
Yes - IRF6616TR1PBF is RoHS compliant and lead-free, with "PbF" suffix indicating lead-free plating and halogen-free construction. It meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1) and is qualified for standard vapor-phase, infrared, and convection reflow per AN-1035.
Can this MOSFET be used in avalanche-rated applications?
Yes - the IRF6616TR1PBF is rated for unclamped inductive switching with EAS = 150 mJ at IAS = 15 A and TJ = 25°C. Avalanche energy decreases with rising junction temperature; Fig. 14 shows EAS = 40 mJ at ID = 3.7 A and starting TJ = 150°C.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 500 kHz switching?
A 5–10 Ω gate resistor is recommended for 500 kHz operation to balance switching speed and gate oscillation damping. With Qg = 29 nC and typical driver output impedance ~1 Ω, this yields ~15–30 ns rise/fall times - aligning with tr = 19 ns and tf = 4.4 ns measured values at 10 V drive.
