Product details
Overview
IRF7201PBF from Infineon Technologies is a 30 V, 7.3 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in SO-8 package, featuring 30 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and 50 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V, optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and load switching in portable power management systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7201PBF datasheet, IRF7201PBF pinout, IRF7201PBF application, or IRF7201PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low gate charge (19–28 nC), fast switching (tr = 35 ns, tf = 19 ns), integrated body diode with 48–73 ns reverse recovery time, and thermal resistance of 50 °C/W (junction-to-ambient).
Technical Context
This Generation V HEXFET® MOSFET employs advanced silicon processing to achieve ultra-low on-resistance per die area while maintaining rugged avalanche capability (EAS = 70 mJ) and high dv/dt immunity (5.0 V/ns). Its SO-8 package uses a customized leadframe for improved thermal performance and multi-die compatibility.
The device operates across –55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range, supports ±20 V gate drive, and delivers stable RDS(on) up to 125 °C (normalized to 1.5× room-temp value). Gate threshold voltage is tightly specified at 1.0 V (min), enabling reliable 3.3 V logic-level control in battery-powered systems.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si2302DS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.055 Ω @ 4.5 V; Qg = 5.5 nC; SO-23 package | Lower gate charge but higher on-resistance and smaller thermal mass | Preferred for space-constrained 1–2 A loads where gate drive strength is limited |
| DMN3025LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 0.025 Ω @ 10 V; dual-N in SO-8; Qg = 22 nC | Dual configuration enables half-bridge or load-sharing; same footprint | Used when complementary high-side/low-side switching or redundancy is required |
Compared with Si2302DS-T1-GE3 and DMN3025LSD-13, IRF7201PBF offers the best balance of low RDS(on), moderate gate charge, and proven avalanche robustness in single-FET 5–7 A applications-making it ideal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained DC-DC and battery-switching designs.

FAQ
Is IRF7201PBF suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With a gate threshold voltage minimum of 1.0 V and RDS(on) = 0.050 Ω at VGS = 4.5 V, IRF7201PBF fully enhances using standard 3.3 V GPIO outputs. Measured transfer characteristics confirm >4 A drain current at 3.3 V VGS, making it appropriate for direct logic-level switching without external drivers.
What is the maximum continuous current at 70°C case temperature?
The datasheet specifies 5.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 70°C and VGS = 10 V. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area (≥1 in²) and accounts for thermal derating of 0.02 W/°C beyond 25°C ambient, aligning with its 1.6 W power dissipation limit at that temperature.
Does IRF7201PBF include an integrated body diode?
Yes. It features a monolithic integral p-n junction body diode rated for 4.6 A continuous source current and 58 A pulsed source current. Forward voltage is 1.2 V at 4.6 A and 25°C, with reverse recovery time of 48–73 ns-critical for synchronous rectification and flyback snubbing.
Can IRF7201PBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes. Its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (0.024 V/°C breakdown voltage drift, normalized RDS(on) increase with temperature) ensures inherent current sharing when multiple devices are paralleled. The SO-8 package's symmetric drain pin layout further supports balanced layout and thermal coupling in multi-die power stages.
