Product details
Overview
IRF7421D1PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a co-packaged FETKY device integrating a 30V N-channel HEXFET® MOSFET and a low-forward-drop Schottky diode in a single SO-8 package. It delivers RDS(on) = 0.026 Ω @ VGS = 10V, VF = 0.39V, and supports 4.1A continuous source current - optimized for synchronous buck converter output stages in portable power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7421D1PBF datasheet, IRF7421D1PBF pinout, IRF7421D1PBF application, or IRF7421D1PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its integrated MOSFET–Schottky pairing, 0.035 Ω max RDS(on) at 4.5V drive, 84 pF Crss, 18 nC total gate charge, and SO-8 thermal-enhanced leadframe for board-level power density.
Technical Context
This Generation V HEXFET/Schottky co-package implements a single-chip synchronous rectification solution where the MOSFET replaces the freewheeling diode in DC–DC converters. Its low Qgd/Qg ratio (5.9/18 nC) enables fast switching with reduced Miller-induced shoot-through risk, while the Schottky's 57 ns trr and 93 nC Qrr minimize reverse recovery losses.
The SO-8 package uses a customized leadframe to reduce RthJA to 62.5 °C/W, supporting 2.0 W dissipation at 25°C ambient. The body diode is rated for 3.1A continuous and 33A pulsed conduction, enabling robust operation during transient load steps without external diode supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30 V - maximum blocking voltage compatible with 5V–12V input rails in point-of-load converters |
| RDS(on) @ 10V | 0.026 Ω - enables <100 mW conduction loss at 4.1A, critical for >90% efficiency targets |
| VF (Schottky) | 0.39 V - reduces forward drop by ~40% vs. standard silicon diodes, cutting diode conduction loss |
| Qg | 18 nC - determines gate driver current requirement; enables efficient 1–2 MHz switching with low-side gate drivers |
| Crss | 84 pF - low reverse transfer capacitance improves dv/dt immunity and reduces EMI during hard switching |
| TJ Range | −55 to +150 °C - supports operation in thermally constrained handheld and automotive accessory environments |
Pinout & Package
IRF7421D1PBF is housed in a thermally enhanced SO-8 package (JEDEC MS-012AA), featuring a modified leadframe for improved heat spreading and compatibility with vapor-phase, infrared, and wave soldering processes.

|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 | Drain (MOSFET) | Common high-current drain connection shared between MOSFET and Schottky cathode; requires large copper pour for thermal management |
| 6 | Gate | Control terminal for MOSFET; driven by PWM controller or gate driver IC; sensitive to ESD (±20 V rating) |
| 7, 8 | Source / Anode | Common source node for MOSFET and anode for integrated Schottky; forms return path for synchronous rectification current |
Key Features

| Generation V HEXFET technology | Delivers 26% lower RDS(on) per die area vs. prior generation, enabling smaller footprint without sacrificing current handling |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.33) | Reduces Miller plateau duration, allowing faster turn-off and tighter dead-time control in synchronous controllers |
| Enhanced SO-8 thermal leadframe | Lowers RthJA by 15% vs. standard SO-8, enabling 2.0 W power dissipation on FR-4 without heatsink |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous rectifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7850DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω @ 10V; no integrated Schottky; separate diode required | Requires external Schottky for synchronous rectification; higher layout complexity | Preferred when discrete optimization of MOSFET and diode is needed for ultra-high-frequency designs (>3 MHz) |
| IRF7807ZPBF | Same SO-8 FETKY package; RDS(on) = 0.016 Ω @ 10V; VF = 0.42 V; higher ID rating (6.2A) | Higher current capability but larger Qg (22 nC); slightly higher conduction loss in low-VGS operation | Best suited for 5–6A output stages where peak efficiency at light load is less critical than thermal headroom |
Compared with Si7850DP-T1-GE3, IRF7421D1PBF saves board space and simplifies layout via integration; versus IRF7807ZPBF, it trades 0.01 Ω lower RDS(on) for 4 nC lower Qg, favoring medium-current, high-switching-frequency applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF7421D1PBF at 70°C ambient?
The maximum continuous drain current is 4.6 A at TA = 70°C, based on thermal derating from the 5.8 A rating at 25°C and the 16 mW/°C linear derating factor. This assumes mounting on FR-4 board with standard copper area; actual current depends on PCB layout and airflow.
Can IRF7421D1PBF be used in 3.3V-gate-drive applications?
Yes - its RDS(on) is specified at 0.040 Ω (max) with VGS = 4.5V and ID = 2.1A, confirming reliable enhancement-mode operation down to logic-level gate voltages. Gate threshold voltage is 1.0 V (min), ensuring full turn-on with 3.3V microcontroller outputs.
Does the integrated Schottky diode share the same thermal path as the MOSFET?
Yes - both the MOSFET die and Schottky die are mounted on a common leadframe within the SO-8 package, resulting in coupled thermal behavior. Junction-to-ambient resistance (62.5 °C/W) applies to the entire device, and simultaneous conduction in both elements must be considered in thermal design.
Is IRF7421D1PBF RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the "PbF" suffix explicitly denotes lead-free (RoHS-compliant) construction. The device meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 requirements and is qualified for consumer-grade applications per Infineon's qualification standards.
