Product details
Overview
IRF7210PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET designed for high-efficiency load and battery management switching. It features -12 V VDS, 0.007 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -4.5 V and ID = -16 A, SO-8 package with enhanced thermal leadframe, and operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range - used in portable power rails and USB OTG power switches.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7210PBF datasheet, IRF7210PBF pinout, IRF7210PBF application, or IRF7210PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include verified RDS(on) at low gate drive (-4.5 V), pulsed current capability (±100 A), body diode recovery performance (trr = 165–247 ns), and SO-8 thermal resistance (RθJA = 50 °C/W on 1-in² copper).
Technical Context
This device implements a trench-gate, silicon-based P-channel MOSFET architecture optimized for low-voltage, high-current switching in synchronous rectification and reverse-polarity protection circuits. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = -0.6 V max) enables reliable turn-on with logic-level control, while its 17,179 pF Ciss and 8,986 pF Crss support stable operation under fast-switching conditions up to 1 MHz.
The integrated body diode exhibits VSD = -1.2 V at IS = -2.5 A and TJ = 25 °C, with Qrr = 296–444 nC and dI/dt = 85 A/µs - critical for minimizing switching losses in buck converters and hot-swap controllers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -12 V - maximum drain-source blocking voltage for low-voltage rail protection |
| RDS(on) | 0.007 Ω @ VGS = -4.5 V, ID = -16 A - enables <10 mW conduction loss at 10 A load |
| ID (cont) | ±16 A @ TA = 25 °C - supports high-current load switching without external heatsink |
| Qg | 212 nC - determines gate driver strength requirement for <100 ns switching transitions |
| trr | 165–247 ns - defines minimum dead-time setting to avoid shoot-through in half-bridge topologies |
| RθJA | 50 °C/W - thermal limit on 1-in² copper board; derates 0.02 W/°C above 70 °C ambient |
| VGS(th) | -0.6 V max - ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V or 5 V logic-compatible gate drive |
Pinout & Package
IRF7210PBF uses an SO-8 surface-mount package with exposed drain pads for improved thermal dissipation. The leadframe is modified for multiple-die capability and compatibility with vapor-phase, infrared, and wave soldering processes.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 | Drain (D) | Common high-current output node; pins 1–5 and 7–8 internally paralleled for low-inductance, high-current path |
| 6 | Gate (G) | Control input; requires ≤12 V |VGS|; Miller charge (Qgd = 52 nC) affects switching speed |
| Source (S) | Source (S) | Reference node for gate drive; tied to system ground or negative rail in high-side switch configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.007 Ω at -4.5 V gate drive - reduces conduction loss by >40% vs. standard P-MOSFETs in 5 V systems |
| Enhanced SO-8 thermal leadframe | 50 °C/W RθJA on 1-in² copper - enables 2.5 W continuous dissipation without forced air |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 165–247 ns, Qrr = 296–444 nC - minimizes reverse-recovery spikes in synchronous DC/DC stages |
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) ≤ -0.6 V - fully enhances with 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO, eliminating level-shifter need |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | Pb-free plating per JEDEC J-STD-020 - qualified for consumer-grade reflow profiles including vapor phase |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET load switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7107DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.0085 Ω @ -4.5 V; Qg = 190 nC; SO-8 package | Higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by ~21% at 16 A; lower Qg improves switching speed | Prefer when gate drive strength is limited but thermal margin exists |
| DMG2307L-7 | RDS(on) = 0.012 Ω @ -4.5 V; Qg = 12.5 nC; SOT-23-6 package | Lower current rating (±4.2 A) and higher on-resistance; unsuitable for >5 A loads | Only suitable for space-constrained, low-power (<2 W) applications |
Compared with Si7107DP-T1-GE3 and DMG2307L-7, IRF7210PBF delivers the lowest RDS(on) in SO-8 for 12 V systems, enabling highest efficiency at high current, while maintaining robust pulsed capability (±100 A) and body diode performance needed for synchronous rectification.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating voltage for IRF7210PBF in continuous DC operation?
The absolute maximum VDS is -12 V under continuous DC conditions, with a guaranteed breakdown voltage of -14 V at ID = -5 mA and VGS = 0 V. Operation beyond -12 V risks irreversible avalanche failure unless explicitly rated for repetitive unclamped inductive switching per SOA curves.
Can IRF7210PBF be driven directly by a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
Yes - its gate threshold voltage is specified at -0.6 V maximum, and it achieves full enhancement (RDS(on) ≤ 0.007 Ω) with VGS = -4.5 V. A 3.3 V GPIO can drive it in open-drain configuration with pull-up to -5 V or via simple inverting level shifter for optimal performance.
Does IRF7210PBF include an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes - it integrates a monolithic source-drain p-n junction body diode with VSD = -1.2 V at IS = -2.5 A and TJ = 25 °C, reverse recovery time trr = 165–247 ns, and Qrr = 296–444 nC at dI/dt = 85 A/µs - enabling use in synchronous rectification without external diodes.
What PCB layout practices maximize thermal performance for IRF7210PBF in SO-8?
Maximize copper area connected to pins 1–5 and 7–8 (drain) using ≥1 in² of 2-oz copper, thermally connect the exposed drain pad to internal ground/power planes via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter), and keep gate trace short and shielded from drain noise to prevent oscillation due to 52 nC Miller charge.
