Product details
Overview
IRF7831TR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 30V, N-channel, dual-die SO-8 Power MOSFET optimized as the synchronous FET in high-frequency point-of-load buck converters. It delivers 2.5 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 40 nC total gate charge, and 100% avalanche-tested robustness for networking and computing power stages.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7831TR datasheet, IRF7831TR pinout, IRF7831TR application, or IRF7831TR equivalent, key selection criteria include low Qgd/Qgs1 ratio to suppress Cdv/dt turn-on, body diode Qrr = 31–47 nC for light-load efficiency, and SO-8 thermal resistance RθJA = 50 °C/W for board-level thermal design.
Technical Context
This device implements a planar HEXFET structure with fully characterized unclamped inductive switching (UIS) capability up to 100 mJ at TJ = 25°C. Its gate threshold voltage (1.35–2.35 V) and negative temperature coefficient (∆VGS(th)/∆TJ = −5.7 mV/°C) enable stable current sharing in paralleled configurations.
The SO-8 package integrates two identical N-channel dies sharing source terminals, supporting synchronous rectification where low Qoss (22 pF) and fast trr (42–62 ns) minimize output charge loss and reverse recovery dissipation transferred to the control FET.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V and 24 V input rails in non-isolated DC/DC converters |
| RDS(on) max | 3.6 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 16 A RMS in high-current POL stages |
| Qg typ. | 40 nC - Determines gate drive power (Pdrive = Qg × Vg × f) and switching speed in 300–1000 kHz applications |
| Qrr | 31–47 nC - Directly impacts shoot-through risk and control-FET dissipation during body-diode commutation |
| RθJA | 50 °C/W - Sets maximum allowable power dissipation (1.6 W at TA = 70°C) without heatsinking |
| EAS | 100 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche energy supports reliable operation under transient overloads |
Pinout & Package
IRF7831TR uses an SO-8 surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal performance. The dual-die configuration shares source (S) and gate (G) connections across both channels, with eight pins arranged in standard SOIC layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Drain (D) | Common high-side connection for both internal MOSFETs; tied to PCB copper pour for thermal relief |
| 5 | Gate (G) | Single gate input controlling both dies; requires low-impedance driver to manage 40 nC total charge |
| 6, 7, 8 | Source (S) | Common source node; serves as return path for synchronous rectifier current and reference for gate drive |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) at 4.5 V | 4.4 mΩ max - Enables efficient operation with 5 V gate drive in controller-based sync-buck designs |
| Fully characterized avalanche | 100% tested EAS - Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load transients |
| Low Qgd/Qgs1 ratio | Qgd = 11 nC, Qgs1 = 12 nC - Reduces susceptibility to Cdv/dt induced turn-on at switching node |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant Pb-free plating - Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) |
Applications
| Server VRM | Network Switch PSU |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier FET handling high RMS current (>30 A per phase) with minimal conduction loss. Use Value: 2.5 mΩ RDS(on) reduces conduction loss by >35% vs. comparable 4.5 mΩ devices at 20 A, improving full-load efficiency. | Use Scenario: 48 V to 12 V intermediate bus converter feeding PoE controllers and PHYs in Layer 3 switches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Secondary-side synchronous FET operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) with 500 kHz switching. Use Value: Low Qrr (31 nC typ.) minimizes reverse recovery loss transferred to primary-side FET, reducing overall system thermal stress. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous rectifier MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiR872DP | RDS(on) = 2.3 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 49 nC; SO-8 with enhanced thermal pad | Higher gate charge increases driver loss at >1 MHz; better thermal RθJA = 42 °C/W | Preferred for thermally constrained 1 MHz+ designs where gate drive loss is secondary to junction temperature rise |
| IPB036N04LG | RDS(on) = 3.6 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 32 nC; TO-263-3 package | Larger footprint; higher RθJA = 55 °C/W but superior RθJL = 1.2 °C/W to heatsink | Suitable when board space permits discrete heatsinking and lower gate drive power is prioritized over area efficiency |
Compared with IRF7831TR, SiR872DP trades 23% higher Qg for 8% lower RDS(on) and improved thermal resistance, while IPB036N04LG offers 20% lower Qg in a larger package with inferior board-level cooling but better heatsink coupling-making IRF7831TR optimal for area-constrained, medium-frequency POLs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF7831TR at 70°C ambient?
The IRF7831TR supports 17 A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with SO-8 mounting on 1-in² 2-oz copper. This rating assumes no forced airflow and accounts for RθJA = 50 °C/W and PD derating above 25°C. Actual current must be validated against board layout, copper area, and thermal vias.
Does IRF7831TR require a gate resistor for stability in synchronous buck operation?
Yes-a 2.2–4.7 Ω gate resistor is recommended between driver output and pin 5 to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and Qgd feedback. This prevents false turn-on during high dV/dt transitions and ensures clean switching waveforms at frequencies above 300 kHz.
Can IRF7831TR be used in linear regulation mode?
No-it is not characterized for linear-mode operation. The Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve shows limited DC capability (≤1 A at VDS > 10 V), and sustained linear operation risks thermal runaway due to positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient above 100°C. It is designed exclusively for switching applications.
How does the body diode's reverse recovery performance affect system efficiency?
The body diode's Qrr (31–47 nC) directly contributes to power loss in the control FET during dead-time conduction. Higher Qrr increases voltage overshoot and circulating current, raising control-FET switching loss and EMI. In 500 kHz designs, this can reduce full-load efficiency by 0.4–0.7% versus devices with Qrr < 25 nC.
