Product details
Overview
IRF7904PBF from Infineon Technologies is a dual N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET Power MOSFET in SO-8 package, configured as a control FET (Q1) and synchronous FET (Q2) pair for DC-DC buck converters. It delivers RDS(on) of 16.2 mΩ (Q1) and 10.8 mΩ (Q2) at VGS = 10 V, supports 7.6 A and 11 A continuous drain current respectively, and features fully characterized avalanche capability (140 mJ / 250 mJ) - used in notebook CPU voltage regulation modules.
For engineers reviewing the IRF7904PBF datasheet, IRF7904PBF pinout, IRF7904PBF application, or IRF7904PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include dual-channel RDS(on) mismatch tolerance, gate charge asymmetry (Qg = 7.5 nC / 14 nC), body diode reverse recovery time (11–24 ns), thermal resistance (RθJA = 90 / 62.5 °C/W), and SO-8 lead-free compliance.
Technical Context
This dual MOSFET integrates two discrete N-channel devices on one die with independent terminals: Q1 optimized for high-side switching (lower gate charge, higher RDS(on)), Q2 for low-side synchronous rectification (lower RDS(on), higher current rating). Both share identical 30 V VDSS, 1.35–2.25 V VGS(th), and ±20 V VGS rating.
Its design enables precise timing control in synchronous buck topologies: Q1's lower Qgd (2.5 nC) reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk, while Q2's improved body diode (trr = 16–24 ns, Qrr = 6.9–10 nC) minimizes dead-time losses and EMI during freewheeling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 30 V - maximum blocking voltage for both channels; sets upper limit for input rail in 12 V/19 V POL applications |
| RDS(on) Q1 / Q2 | 16.2 mΩ / 10.8 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - defines conduction loss asymmetry; Q2 contributes ~33% less I²R loss than Q1 at equal current |
| ID Continuous | 7.6 A (Q1) / 11 A (Q2) @ TA = 25°C - thermal derating differs (0.011 / 0.016 W/°C), requiring separate layout copper for each channel |
| Qg Total | 7.5 nC (Q1) / 14 nC (Q2) - dictates gate driver strength requirement; Q2 needs >85% more drive current for same slew rate |
| trr Body Diode | 11–17 ns (Q1) / 16–24 ns (Q2) - measured at IS = 6.1 A / 8.8 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs; critical for minimizing cross-conduction in 300–600 kHz VRMs |
| EAS | 140 mJ (Q1) / 250 mJ (Q2) - single-pulse avalanche energy at TJ = 125°C; validates robustness against inductive switching transients |
| RθJA | 90 °C/W (Q1) / 62.5 °C/W (Q2) - reflects different thermal coupling to PCB; Q2's lower value enables higher power density in shared heatsink layouts |
Pinout & Package
IRF7904PBF uses a standard SO-8 surface-mount package with exposed drain pads for enhanced thermal performance. Pin assignments are symmetric per channel: pins 1–4 serve Q1 (G1, D1, S1, S1), pins 5–8 serve Q2 (G2, D2, S2, S2), with internal isolation between channels.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G1) | Gate of Q1 | High-impedance control input; requires <2.25 V threshold to turn on; sensitive to ESD and ringing |
| 2 (D1) | Drain of Q1 | Connected to input rail; carries full load current during on-state; tied to Q1 source via internal parasitic diode |
| 3 (S1) | Source of Q1 | Reference node for Q1 gate drive; common with pin 4; forms return path for high-side switch current |
| 4 (S1) | Source of Q1 (redundant) | Dual-source connection improves current sharing and reduces bond wire inductance in high-frequency switching |
| 5 (G2) | Gate of Q2 | Control input for low-side FET; driven referenced to Q2 source (pin 6); lower VGS(th) tolerance eases gate driver design |
| 6 (D2) | Drain of Q2 | Connected to output inductor node; handles synchronous rectification current; shares thermal pad with pin 7/8 |
| 7 (S2) | Source of Q2 | Power ground reference for Q2; tied to system GND; carries full load current during freewheeling phase |
| 8 (S2) | Source of Q2 (redundant) | Dual-source configuration lowers effective source inductance, improving di/dt immunity and reducing VDS overshoot |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Asymmetric dual-channel optimization | Q1 (control FET) prioritizes fast switching (low Qgd, 2.5 nC); Q2 (sync FET) prioritizes conduction efficiency (low RDS(on), 10.8 mΩ) |
| Fully characterized avalanche rating | Specified EAS (140/250 mJ) and IAR (6.1/8.8 A) enable reliable operation under unclamped inductive load conditions without external snubbers |
| Improved body diode reverse recovery | trr = 11–24 ns and Qrr = 2.6–10 nC reduce switching loss and EMI during dead-time, critical for >300 kHz VRMs |
| Lead-free SO-8 package | RoHS-compliant, halogen-free construction with exposed drain thermal pads; supports reflow profiles up to 260°C peak |
| Low gate charge asymmetry ratio | Qg(Q2)/Qg(Q1) = 1.87× matches typical gate driver current capability; avoids overdesign of high-side driver stage |
Applications

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate drive voltage for IRF7904PBF?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±20 V, but the device is characterized and optimized for operation at 10 V. Driving above 12 V yields diminishing RDS(on) improvement while increasing gate oxide stress and risk of overvoltage failure during transients. For 4.5 V logic-level drive, RDS(on) rises to 20.5 mΩ (Q1) and 14.5 mΩ (Q2), requiring careful thermal validation.
Can IRF7904PBF be used in a bootstrap high-side configuration?
No - IRF7904PBF is not designed for bootstrap operation because its Q1 and Q2 sources are isolated and not internally tied. The SO-8 pinout provides separate source terminals (pins 3/4 for Q1, 6/7/8 for Q2), preventing direct bootstrap capacitor connection to a floating source. It must be used in low-side synchronous or dual low-side configurations with independent gate drivers.
How does the body diode performance compare between Q1 and Q2?
Q2 exhibits superior body diode characteristics: VSD = 1.0 V (vs. Q1's 1.0 V), but trr = 16–24 ns and Qrr = 6.9–10 nC versus Q1's 11–17 ns and 2.6–3.9 nC. This reflects Q2's larger die area and optimized doping profile for freewheeling, making it better suited for low-loss synchronous rectification despite slightly longer recovery.
Is IRF7904PBF suitable for automotive applications?
No - IRF7904PBF is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks automotive-grade screening (e.g., HTOL, temperature cycling, ESD HBM ≥ 2 kV). Its specified operating junction temperature range is –55°C to +150°C, but qualification data for automotive ambient conditions (–40°C to +125°C case) and lifetime reliability under vibration/humidity stress is not published. Use only in commercial/industrial computing applications.
