Product details
Overview
IRF7855PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 60V, 12A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET Power MOSFET in SO-8 package, optimized for primary-side switching in isolated DC-DC topologies and secondary-side synchronous rectification. It delivers 7.4 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 9.6 nC Qgd, and 520 pF Coss(eff), enabling high-efficiency operation in 48V non-isolated buck converters and push-pull bridge designs.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7855PBF datasheet, IRF7855PBF pinout, IRF7855PBF application, or IRF7855PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate charge profile, avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 2400 mJ), body diode recovery (Qrr = 38–57 nC), thermal resistance (RθJA = 50 °C/W), and SO-8 lead-frame layout compatibility with automated PCB assembly.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process technology with fully characterized dynamic parameters including Ciss = 1560 pF, Coss = 440 pF (measured), and Coss(eff) = 520 pF - a fixed capacitance calibrated to match actual VDS rise time from 0 to 48 V. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 3.0–4.9 V) ensures robust turn-on margin under wide temperature and supply variation.
The device integrates a low-VSD body diode (1.3 V max at IS = 7.2 A) with trr = 33–50 ns and Qrr = 38–57 nC, supporting fast synchronous rectification without external Schottky replacement. Avalanche rating is validated per unclamped inductive test (IAS = 7.2 A, EAS = 2400 mJ at TJ = 25°C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - supports 48V bus systems with 20% derating margin against transients |
| RDS(on) max | 9.4 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - enables ≤1.1 W conduction loss at 12 A DC |
| Qgd | 9.6 nC - Miller charge directly impacts hard-switching loss and dV/dt immunity |
| Coss(eff) | 520 pF - calibrated output capacitance used for accurate snubber and ZVS timing design |
| EAS | 2400 mJ - single-pulse avalanche energy rating validated at IAS = 7.2 A, L = 21 mH |
| Qrr | 38–57 nC - reverse recovery charge determines synchronous FET cross-conduction loss |
| RθJA | 50 °C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on standard 2-layer FR4 PCB |
Pinout & Package
IRF7855PBF uses the industry-standard SO-8 surface-mount package (EIA-481 compliant), with exposed drain pads on pins 1–4 and 6–8 for enhanced thermal conduction and current handling. The lead frame is copper-based with matte tin plating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2, 3, 4 | Drain (D) | High-current power path; electrically tied to exposed pad for thermal and electrical sinking |
| 5 | Gate (G) | Control input; requires <10 V drive for full enhancement, sensitive to ringing due to Qgd/Qgs ratio |
| 6, 7, 8 | Source (S) | Power return node; forms common reference for gate drive and body diode conduction |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | 1.41 (9.6/6.8 nC) - improves controllability during Miller plateau and reduces shoot-through risk |
| Fully characterized Coss(eff) | 520 pF - replaces variable Coss curve with single value for reliable soft-switching timing |
| Body diode Qrr specification | 38–57 nC - enables accurate dead-time optimization in synchronous rectifier layouts |
| Avalanche-rated construction | 2400 mJ EAS - allows safe operation under inductive switching fault conditions without external clamping |
Applications
| Primary-Side Bridge Switch | Secondary-Side Sync Rectifier |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency 48V input isolated DC-DC converter using full-bridge topology with 100–300 kHz switching. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side high-side and low-side switch; handles full input voltage and load current with minimal conduction and switching loss. Use Value: 9.4 mΩ RDS(on) and 9.6 nC Qgd reduce total losses below 2.1 W at 12 A, enabling >95% efficiency at full load. | Use Scenario: 15V output stage of telecom isolated PSU where synchronous rectification replaces Schottky diodes. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side synchronous rectifier controlled by transformer-coupled gate drive; conducts during freewheeling phase. Use Value: Body diode Qrr = 38–57 nC and VSD = 1.3 V enable 30% lower forward loss vs. 40V Schottky, reducing output-stage temperature rise by 12°C. |
| 48V Non-Isolated Buck Converter | Push-Pull Isolated DC-DC |
Use Scenario: Point-of-load regulator in server VRM delivering up to 12 A at 1.2 V from 48V intermediate bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switching FET in buck topology; switched at 500 kHz with active gate control. Use Value: Coss(eff) = 520 pF allows precise zero-voltage switching timing; RDS(on) = 7.4 mΩ (typ.) cuts conduction loss to 1.07 W at 12 A. | Use Scenario: 18–36V input telecom DC-DC module using push-pull isolation with center-tapped transformer. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switch on each leg; alternately driven with 50% duty cycle and dead time. Use Value: 60V VDS rating provides 2× input headroom; avalanche rating absorbs leakage inductance spikes without snubbers. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF7832PBF | Same SO-8 package, but 30V VDS, 16A ID, 5.8 mΩ RDS(on) | Optimized for ≤24V input systems; unsuitable for 48V bus or 60V transient environments | Select only when input voltage stays below 28V and lower RDS(on) justifies reduced voltage margin |
| SiR872DP-T1-GE3 | Vishay 60V SO-8 with 7.0 mΩ RDS(on), 10.5 nC Qgd, and 450 pF Coss(eff) | Higher gate charge increases switching loss; tighter RDS(on) tolerance improves current sharing in parallel designs | Prefer when parallel FET operation or tighter parametric binning is required, accepting +4.7% Qgd |
Compared with IRF7855PBF, IRF7832PBF trades voltage margin for lower conduction loss in sub-30V systems, while SiR872DP-T1-GE3 offers improved on-resistance consistency at the cost of higher Miller charge - making IRF7855PBF optimal for balanced 48V–60V switching where gate drive strength and avalanche safety are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 70°C ambient?
The IRF7855PBF supports 8.7 A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with VGS = 10 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This reflects thermal derating from the 12 A rating at 25°C, based on RθJA = 50 °C/W and junction temperature limit of 150°C.
Does this MOSFET require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes - a gate resistor (typically 6.2 Ω, per datasheet Fig 10a) is recommended to dampen ringing caused by parasitic inductance and the 9.6 nC Qgd/6.8 nC Qgs ratio. Omitting it risks shoot-through in half-bridge configurations and can exceed dV/dt limits during turn-off.
Can IRF7855PBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (Fig 4) enables inherent current sharing. However, matched gate drive routing and Kelvin source connections are required to avoid imbalance; layout symmetry must ensure equal loop inductance per paralleled device.
Is the SO-8 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - the "PbF" suffix confirms lead-free termination and full compliance with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The matte tin plating meets JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level MSL3, with floor life of 168 hours at ≤30°C/60% RH.
