Product details
Overview
IRF830STRR from Vishay Siliconix is a 500 V, 4.5 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package, featuring 1.5 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 38 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating-designed for high-voltage switching in offline SMPS, AC-DC adapters, and motor control inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRF830STRR datasheet, IRF830STRR pinout, IRF830STRR application, or IRF830STRR equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating data, diode recovery characteristics, and real-world selection guidance for high-reliability 500 V power stage design.
Technical Context
This third-generation silicon power MOSFET uses planar V-groove technology optimized for ruggedness and fast switching. Its 1.5 Ω on-resistance at 10 V gate drive enables low conduction loss in 400–500 V DC bus applications, while 3.5 V/ns peak diode recovery dV/dt rating supports stable operation under hard-switched inductive loads.
The device integrates a co-packaged body diode with 320–640 ns reverse recovery time (trr), 1.0–2.0 μC Qrr, and 1.6 V forward voltage (VSD) at 4.5 A - enabling self-commutated flyback and active clamp topologies without external diode supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 500 V - supports full-wave rectified 340 VAC input (480 VDC peak) with margin for surge and ringing. |
| RDS(on) | 1.5 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - delivers ≤3.0 W conduction loss at 4.5 A continuous drain current. |
| Qg | 38 nC - determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed trade-off in 50–100 kHz SMPS designs. |
| EAS | 280 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - enables unclamped inductive switching without external snubbers in relay drivers. |
| RthJC | 1.7 °C/W junction-to-case - allows 74 W dissipation with heatsink interface ≤0.5 °C/W to maintain TJ < 150 °C. |
| ID (TC = 100 °C) | 2.9 A - defines usable current limit in thermally constrained PCB-mounted applications without heatsink. |
| trr / Qrr | 320–640 ns / 1.0–2.0 μC - constrains minimum dead-time in half-bridge configurations to prevent shoot-through. |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; 3-pin configuration (G-D-S) with drain tab electrically connected to pin 2 and thermally coupled to PCB copper area.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate | High-impedance MOSFET control terminal; requires ≤±20 V drive and 0.5–2.7 Ω gate resistance for optimal EMI/switching trade-off. |
| Pin 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; internally bonded to large copper drain pad for low-inductance, high-current routing and thermal transfer. |
| Pin 3 (S) | Source | Power return path and gate reference node; internal source inductance (LS = 7.5 nH) impacts turn-on delay and gate oscillation risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Enables reliable operation under transient overloads (e.g., output short-circuit) without catastrophic failure-EAR = 7.4 mJ per pulse. |
| Dynamic dV/dt rating | 3.5 V/ns ensures immunity to false turn-on during high-slew-rate voltage transients in bridge-leg configurations. |
| Fast switching | td(on)/tr/td(off)/tf = 8.2/16/42/16 ns at VDD = 250 V enables >100 kHz operation with minimal switching loss. |
| Low gate charge | Qgs = 5.0 nC and Qgd = 22 nC reduce driver IC stress and improve gate drive efficiency in isolated flyback controllers. |
| Surface mount (D2PAK) | Supports automated assembly and high-power density layout; requires ≥16.1 mm × 10.7 mm copper pad per AN826 recommendation. |
Applications
| Offline AC-DC Adapters | Industrial Motor Drives |
|---|---|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP5NB50FP | 500 V, 4.5 A, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω, Qg = 32 nC, TO-220FP package | Through-hole mounting; higher RthJA (65 °C/W) limits PCB-only thermal performance | Preferred where manual assembly or legacy through-hole layout exists; lower Qg improves light-load efficiency. |
| IXTP50N10P | 100 V, 50 A, RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω, TO-220 package - not voltage-compatible | Cannot replace IRF830STRR in 400+ V applications due to 100 V VDS limit | Only suitable for low-voltage (<120 VDC) motor drives; misapplication would cause immediate breakdown. |
Compared with STP5NB50FP, IRF830STRR offers superior thermal performance in surface-mount layouts (RthJC = 1.7 °C/W vs. 2.5 °C/W) and higher avalanche robustness (EAS = 280 mJ vs. 180 mJ), while IXTP50N10P is electrically incompatible above 100 V and must be excluded from 500 V designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF830STRR at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF830STRR supports 2.9 A continuous drain current when the case temperature (TC) is maintained at 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the D2PAK package and ensures junction temperature remains below 150 °C under steady-state conditions. Designers must verify heatsinking and PCB copper area to sustain this current reliably in end equipment.
Does IRF830STRR have avalanche capability, and how is it rated?
Yes, the IRF830STRR is repetitively avalanche rated with 7.4 mJ per pulse (EAR) and 280 mJ single-pulse energy (EAS). These ratings are validated per test condition VDD = 50 V, L = 24 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, IAS = 4.5 A. The device can safely absorb inductive energy during unclamped switching events without degradation, making it suitable for relay drivers and flyback converters without external snubbers.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for IRF830STRR, and why does it matter?
The gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for IRF830STRR is specified from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25 °C. This range indicates the minimum gate voltage required to begin channel conduction. A wide threshold window necessitates robust gate drive design-especially at elevated temperatures-to ensure full enhancement and avoid linear-mode operation, which increases power dissipation and risk of thermal runaway.
Can IRF830STRR be used in parallel configurations, and what design considerations apply?
Yes, the IRF830STRR is designed for ease of paralleling, as confirmed by Vishay's datasheet features. Key requirements include matched gate drive impedance (≤2 Ω per device), symmetrical PCB layout to minimize loop inductance, and individual gate resistors to dampen oscillation. Thermal coupling between devices must also be managed to prevent current imbalance caused by positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on).
What is the body diode reverse recovery time (trr) of IRF830STRR, and how does it affect half-bridge operation?
The IRF830STRR body diode exhibits a reverse recovery time (trr) of 320–640 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 3.1 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. In half-bridge topologies, this trr directly determines minimum required dead-time between high-side and low-side switching transitions. Insufficient dead-time risks shoot-through, especially at high switching frequencies (>50 kHz), making accurate trr characterization essential for reliable gate timing design.
