Product details
Overview
IRF7492PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 200 V, 3.7 A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET Power MOSFET in SO-8 package, optimized for high-frequency DC-DC converters. It features 79 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 39 nC total gate charge, and fully characterized Coss,eff = 150 pF to simplify snubberless flyback and resonant converter design.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7492PBF datasheet, IRF7492PBF pinout, IRF7492PBF application, or IRF7492PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low Qgd/Qg ratio (15/39 nC), avalanche-rated 130 mJ single-pulse energy, and SO-8 thermal resistance of 20 °C/W junction-to-drain - critical for compact, high-efficiency isolated power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process with optimized cell pitch and trench-assisted drift region to achieve balanced conduction and switching loss trade-offs at 100–500 kHz operation. Its low 9.5 V/ns diode recovery dv/dt and 69 ns trr support fast synchronous rectification without excessive ringing in secondary-side switching.
The device integrates a robust body diode with VSD = 1.3 V at IS = 2.2 A and is fully specified for unclamped inductive switching (UIS) up to IAS = 4.4 A, enabling reliable operation in hard-switched topologies where voltage overshoot is uncontrolled.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 200 V - supports 160 V bus designs with 25% margin for transient overvoltage in telecom and industrial SMPS |
| RDS(on) max | 79 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - enables ≤1.2 W conduction loss at 3.7 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 39 nC - determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed in 200–500 kHz converters |
| Coss,eff | 150 pF - defines output capacitance energy loss during turn-on; used directly in ZVS timing calculations |
| EAS | 130 mJ - specifies maximum single-pulse avalanche energy tolerance without failure under inductive fault conditions |
| RθJL | 20 °C/W - quantifies thermal path efficiency from junction to exposed drain pad; enables direct PCB copper heatsinking |
| trr / Qrr | 69 ns / 200 nC - sets minimum dead-time requirements and reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectifiers |
Pinout & Package
IRF7492PBF uses the standard SO-8 surface-mount package (JEDEC MS-012AA) with exposed drain paddle for enhanced thermal performance. The 8-pin layout places all three drain terminals (pins 1, 2, 3) on one side, source terminals (pins 5, 6, 7, 8) on the opposite side, and gate (pin 4) centrally located for low-inductance routing.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3 - D | Drain connection (parallel) | Three parallel pins reduce package inductance and distribute high-current return path across PCB |
| 4 - G | Gate input | Single-point control node; requires <10 Ω series gate resistor to damp 15 ns turn-on delay and 13 ns rise time |
| 5, 6, 7, 8 - S | Source return path | Four-source-pin configuration lowers source inductance and improves stability in high-di/dt switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 38% (15/39 nC) - reduces Miller-induced switching instability and enables cleaner gate drive waveforms |
| Fully characterized Coss,eff | 150 pF - eliminates iterative capacitor modeling; directly usable in resonant tank and soft-switching timing equations |
| Avalanche-rated | 130 mJ EAS - allows safe operation in non-clamped topologies like flyback without external snubbers |
| Lead-free SO-8 package | RoHS-compliant with 300 °C soldering tolerance - compatible with standard reflow profiles and automated assembly |
| Body diode trr | 69 ns - enables use as synchronous rectifier in secondary-side DC-DC stages up to 300 kHz |
Applications
| Telecom DC-DC Brick | Industrial Isolated PSU |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage, medium-current power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP20NM20 | 200 V, 20 A, 0.12 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package | Higher current rating but larger footprint and 60 °C/W RθJA; requires heatsink above 1.5 A | Prefer when board space allows discrete heatsinking and peak current exceeds 4 A |
| SiHFR120 | 200 V, 3.5 A, 85 mΩ RDS(on), SO-8, 42 nC Qg | Higher Qg and slightly higher RDS(on); identical pinout and thermal profile | Drop-in replacement if existing layout must be preserved and 5% efficiency loss is acceptable |
Compared with STP20NM20 and SiHFR120, IRF7492PBF delivers superior thermal performance per unit area (20 °C/W vs. 60 °C/W or 25 °C/W), lower switching loss due to 39 nC Qg, and tighter Coss,eff characterization - making it optimal for compact, high-frequency, thermally constrained DC-DC modules.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 70°C ambient?
The IRF7492PBF supports 3.0 A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with proper PCB copper area (1 inch² 2 oz Cu). This derating reflects its 2.5 W PD rating and 50 °C/W RθJA, not junction temperature limits - actual TJ remains within −55 to +150°C range under these conditions.
Can IRF7492PBF be used in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes - its fully characterized Coss,eff = 150 pF and low Qgd = 15 nC enable precise ZVS timing design in LLC resonant converters. The fixed effective output capacitance value eliminates iterative simulation, allowing direct calculation of resonant tank dead time and magnetizing inductance requirements.
Is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification?
Yes - the integrated body diode has trr = 69 ns and Qrr = 200 nC at IF = 2.2 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs. These values meet requirements for synchronous rectification in forward and active-clamp flyback converters operating up to 300 kHz, provided gate drive timing accounts for 10 ns recovery margin.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for 300 kHz operation?
A 6.5 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for 300 kHz switching with 15 ns td(on), 13 ns tr, 27 ns td(off), and 14 ns tf. This value balances switching speed against ringing suppression; reducing below 5 Ω increases EMI risk without meaningful efficiency gain due to Qg-dominated losses.
