Product details
Overview
IRF7490PBF from Infineon Technologies is a 100 V, 33 mΩ N-channel HEXFET Power MOSFET in SO-8 package, rated for 5.4 A continuous drain current at 25°C and optimized for high-frequency DC-DC converters. It features 37 nC total gate charge, 250 pF effective output capacitance (Coss), and 91 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - enabling robust switching in synchronous buck stages with low conduction and switching losses.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7490PBF datasheet, IRF7490PBF pinout, IRF7490PBF application, or IRF7490PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) stability over temperature, gate charge profile for PWM controller compatibility, body diode recovery performance (trr = 67 ns), and SO-8 thermal derating (20 mW/°C above 70°C).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process technology with fully characterized dynamic parameters including Ciss = 1720 pF, Coss = 220 pF (VDS = 25 V), and Crss = 25 pF - supporting accurate snubberless flyback and resonant LLC design. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges 2.0–4.0 V, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level drivers.
The device integrates a co-packaged body diode with VSD = 1.3 V at IS = 3.2 A and Qrr = 220 nC, enabling use in synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths where reverse recovery behavior directly impacts efficiency and EMI.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - supports input rails up to 48 V nominal bus with 2× safety margin for transient spikes in industrial DC-DC systems |
| RDS(on) max | 39 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - delivers ≤210 mW conduction loss at 5.4 A, critical for thermally constrained SO-8 PCB layouts |
| Qg | 37 nC - enables <100 ns turn-on delay (td(on) = 13 ns) with 9.1 Ω gate resistor, suitable for 500 kHz–1 MHz switching |
| EAS | 91 mJ - withstands unclamped inductive switching events in motor gate drivers or hot-swap circuits without failure |
| Coss,eff | 250 pF - defines hard-switching energy loss (½ × C × V²) and influences ZVS transition feasibility in resonant topologies |
| trr | 67 ns - limits diode reverse recovery ringing and associated voltage overshoot during high-dI/dt freewheeling |
| TJ range | −55°C to +150°C - validated operation across automotive under-hood and industrial ambient conditions |
Pinout & Package
IRF7490PBF uses the industry-standard SO-8 surface-mount package (JEDEC MS-012AA), with exposed drain pads on pins 1–4 and 6–8 for enhanced thermal dissipation. The package measures 4.9 mm × 6.0 mm × 1.75 mm and supports reflow soldering up to 300°C for 10 seconds.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4, 6–8 (D) | Drain | Parallel-connected high-side switch node; requires copper pour and thermal vias for PD > 1.6 W at TA = 70°C |
| 5 (G) | Gate | High-impedance control input; 37 nC charge demands low-impedance driver to minimize tr/tf |
| 7–8 (S) | Source | Power return path and reference for gate drive; shared with body diode cathode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low gate-to-drain charge (Qgd) | 10 nC - reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk and improves controllability in half-bridge configurations |
| Fully characterized Coss vs. VDS | 130–1650 pF range - enables precise calculation of switching loss and snubber sizing across full operating voltage |
| Lead-free (PbF) construction | RoHS-compliant SO-8 package - meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 for unlimited floor life |
| Enhanced avalanche ruggedness | IAR = 3.2 A, EAS = 91 mJ - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching applications |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF7470PBF | RDS(on) = 45 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 28 nC; VDS = 100 V | Lower gate charge reduces driver stress but higher on-resistance increases conduction loss at >4 A | Select when prioritizing fast switching over thermal headroom in low-current, high-frequency designs |
| SI7850DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 28 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 45 nC; SO-8 package; VDS = 100 V | Lower RDS(on) improves efficiency at high load, but higher Qg demands stronger gate driver | Select when optimizing for full-load efficiency in thermally limited 5–6 A applications |
Compared with IRF7470PBF and SI7850DP-T1-GE3, IRF7490PBF offers the best balance of RDS(on), Qg, and avalanche capability - making it preferred for mid-power DC-DC converters where both conduction loss and switching loss must be minimized simultaneously.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C ambient temperature?
The IRF7490PBF does not specify continuous drain current at 100°C ambient in its Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Derating must be applied from the 4.3 A rating at 70°C using the 20 mW/°C linear derating factor. At TA = 100°C, maximum allowable power dissipation is 1.0 W, yielding ~4.5 A only if RDS(on) remains at 33 mΩ - but junction temperature must stay ≤150°C, requiring careful thermal design with PCB copper area and airflow.
Does the body diode support synchronous rectification in buck converters?
Yes - the integrated body diode has VSD = 1.3 V at 3.2 A and trr = 67 ns, enabling use as a freewheeling element. However, for true synchronous rectification, an external low-VF Schottky or second MOSFET is recommended due to the body diode's relatively high forward drop and recovery charge (Qrr = 220 nC), which increases switching loss and EMI.
Can IRF7490PBF be used in linear mode (constant-current source) applications?
No - the device is not characterized for safe linear-mode operation. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve shows pulse-limited operation only, with no DC or long-pulse capability beyond 100 µs. For constant-current sources, discrete lateral MOSFETs or dedicated linear regulators with thermal foldback are required to prevent thermal runaway.
Is the SO-8 package lead (pin) finish matte tin or bright tin?
The IRF7490PBF SO-8 package uses matte tin (Sn) plating per Infineon's Pb-free specification, compliant with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 and RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. Matte tin prevents whisker growth and provides stable solderability during reflow, with no post-reflow annealing required.
