Product details
Overview
IRF9510S from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for -100 V VDS, 4.0 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, 1.2 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It serves as a high-side switch in DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and load switching circuits requiring rugged avalanche capability and fast switching.
For engineers reviewing the IRF9510S datasheet, IRF9510S pinout, IRF9510S application, or IRF9510S equivalent, key selection criteria include its -100 V blocking voltage, repetitive avalanche rating (EAS = 200 mJ), low gate charge (Qg = 8.7 nC), surface-mount D2PAK thermal performance (RthJC = 3.5 °C/W), and body diode recovery characteristics (trr = 82–160 ns).
Technical Context
This device employs a third-generation silicon process optimized for low RDS(on) and fast switching in high-voltage P-channel configurations. Its gate threshold voltage range (-2.0 V to -4.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drive while maintaining noise immunity.
The D2PAK package enables high-power dissipation (43 W at TC = 25 °C) via low thermal resistance to case (3.5 °C/W) and integrates an intrinsic body diode with controlled reverse recovery (Qrr = 0.15–0.30 μC) suitable for synchronous rectification and inductive load commutation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -100 V - Supports high-side switching in 48 V industrial bus and 100 V DC link applications without derating. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = -10 V | 1.2 Ω - Limits conduction loss to ≤ 19.2 mW at 4 A, enabling thermally constrained PCB-mount designs. |
| Qg | 8.7 nC - Enables <100 ns turn-on delay with 24 Ω gate resistor, supporting >100 kHz PWM operation. |
| EAS | 200 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive energy spikes in motor drive freewheeling without external snubbers. |
| tr/tf | 27 ns / 17 ns - Reduces switching losses in hard-switched topologies and improves EMI profile vs. slower alternatives. |
| TJ max | +175 °C - Allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without forced cooling. |
| ID @ TC = 100 °C | -2.8 A - Specifies usable current in thermally limited heatsinkless layouts (e.g., 1" FR-4 PCB mount). |
Pinout & Package

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF9530NPbF | VDS = -100 V, RDS(on) = 0.3 Ω @ VGS = -10 V, Qg = 73 nC, TO-220 package | Higher current (12 A), but larger footprint and higher gate drive demand; unsuitable for space-constrained SMT layouts. | Select when higher current and lower RDS(on) outweigh SMT assembly and thermal interface constraints. |
| SiHF9510S-GE3 | Identical die and specs; same D2PAK package; RoHS-compliant, halogen-free variant per Vishay ordering matrix | No functional difference; differs only in material compliance and tape/reel packaging (GE3 = green, Pb-free, halogen-free) | Choose SiHF9510S-GE3 for full RoHS/halogen-free compliance; IRF9510STRRPbF is Pb-free but not halogen-free. |
Compared with IRF9510S, IRF9530NPbF offers lower on-resistance but demands significantly more gate drive energy and occupies a through-hole footprint, while SiHF9510S-GE3 delivers identical electrical performance with enhanced environmental compliance-making it the preferred drop-in alternative for green manufacturing programs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the IRF9510S at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF9510S supports -2.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D2PAK package under real-world PCB-mount conditions and must be verified against actual board layout and ambient airflow in the final design. The IRF9510S maintains safe operation within this limit without requiring external heatsinking in many industrial applications.
Does the IRF9510S have a built-in body diode, and what are its key recovery parameters?
Yes, the IRF9510S integrates a source-drain body diode with trr = 82–160 ns and Qrr = 0.15–0.30 μC at TJ = 25 °C, IF = -4.0 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. These values enable predictable freewheeling behavior in half-bridge and buck converter topologies. The IRF9510S body diode is not optimized for ultra-fast recovery but provides robust performance in standard switching applications without external diode supplementation.
Is the IRF9510S suitable for avalanche energy handling, and what is its single-pulse rating?
The IRF9510S is explicitly rated for repetitive avalanche operation with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 200 mJ under defined test conditions (VDD = -25 V, IAS = -4.0 A, L = 18 mH). This capability allows the IRF9510S to safely absorb inductive energy during switching transients without degradation, making it appropriate for motor drive and relay driving where unclamped inductive loads are present. The IRF9510S datasheet confirms this rating across its full temperature range.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the IRF9510S, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The IRF9510S has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of -2.0 V to -4.0 V at ID = -250 μA, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard -10 V gate drive while maintaining noise margin against spurious turn-on. This threshold range means the IRF9510S is not a logic-level device and requires dedicated negative bias or level-shifted drive in high-side configurations. The IRF9510S achieves full enhancement and minimal RDS(on) only at VGS ≤ -10 V.
How does the thermal resistance of the IRF9510S compare between case-to-ambient and case-to-junction measurements?
The IRF9510S specifies RthJC = 3.5 °C/W (junction-to-case) and RthJA = 40 °C/W (junction-to-ambient, PCB mount), confirming that effective heat transfer relies on proper thermal interface to the PCB copper pour. The 11.4× difference highlights that the IRF9510S's thermal performance is dominated by the PCB layout-not the package itself. For optimal results, the IRF9510S drain tab must be soldered to ≥1"² of 2 oz copper with thermal vias, as validated in Vishay's application notes for D2PAK mounting.
