Product details
Overview
IRF9540NSTRRPBF from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for -100 V V(BR)DSS, 117 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V and ID = -14 A, with 150°C maximum junction temperature and fast switching (tr = 64 ns, tf = 45 ns). It serves as a high-reliability power switch in DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRF9540NSTRRPBF datasheet, IRF9540NSTRRPBF pinout, IRF9540NSTRRPBF application, or IRF9540NSTRRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its -100 V breakdown rating, 117 mΩ on-resistance at -10 V gate drive, repetitive avalanche capability up to Tjmax, 150°C operating temperature, and D2PAK thermal performance (RθJC = 1.1 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device uses advanced planar process technology optimized for low RDS(on) and robust avalanche performance. Its gate threshold voltage range (-2.0 V to -4.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic-level negative gate drive, while the 73 nC total gate charge supports efficient high-frequency switching in hard-switched topologies.
The integrated body diode exhibits VSD = -1.6 V at IS = -14 A and trr = 140–210 ns, enabling synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and half-bridge configurations. Thermal design is supported by validated junction-to-case resistance of 1.1 °C/W and linear derating of 3.1 W/°C above 25°C case temperature.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | -100 V - Withstands 100 V drain-source reverse bias before avalanche conduction begins. |
| RDS(on) | 117 mΩ max @ VGS = -10 V, ID = -14 A - Enables low conduction loss in high-current P-channel switching paths. |
| Qg | 73 nC typ - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in PWM circuits. |
| TJ max | 150°C - Supports operation in thermally constrained industrial enclosures without derating. |
| tr / tf | 64 ns / 45 ns - Enables >100 kHz switching in SMPS while limiting switching losses. |
| EAS | 300 mJ single-pulse - Provides ruggedness against inductive load transients without external snubbers. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF9540NPbF | Dual-inline TO-220 package; RθJA = 62 °C/W (vs. 40 °C/W for D2PAK); identical electrical specs. | Better suited for prototyping or low-volume through-hole assembly; lower thermal performance in high-power density layouts. | Select for manual soldering or legacy board compatibility where D2PAK footprint is unavailable. |
| STP9NK90ZFP | Zener-protected superjunction P-MOSFET; -900 V V(BR)DSS, 1.2 Ω RDS(on); higher voltage, much higher on-resistance. | Targeted at high-voltage AC-DC PFC stages, not low-voltage DC switching; not drop-in due to voltage/resistance mismatch. | Consider only for >400 V applications where IRF9540NSTRRPBF's -100 V rating is insufficient. |
Compared with IRF9540NPbF, the D2PAK variant offers superior thermal resistance and surface-mount scalability; versus STP9NK90ZFP, it delivers 10× lower RDS(on) at one-tenth the voltage rating-making it optimal for 24–48 V industrial power switching where conduction loss dominates.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF9540NSTRRPBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is -14 A at TC = 25°C and -9.2 A at TC = 100°C, specified with VGS = -10 V. This derating reflects thermal limits imposed by the D2PAK package's RθJC = 1.1 °C/W and safe operating area constraints at elevated temperatures.
Does IRF9540NSTRRPBF have built-in gate protection?
No, IRF9540NSTRRPBF does not integrate gate Zener protection. Its absolute maximum VGS rating is ±20 V, and gate oxide withstands only brief transients within that limit. External gate resistors and clamping diodes are recommended in noisy or inductive drive environments.
Can IRF9540NSTRRPBF be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
Yes - its body diode has VSD = -1.6 V at -14 A and trr = 140–210 ns, making it viable for synchronous rectification in low-voltage (<24 V) DC-DC converters. However, dedicated synchronous rectifier MOSFETs offer lower Qrr and optimized gate drive timing.
How does the repetitive avalanche rating impact circuit design?
The device is rated for repetitive avalanche energy up to EAR = 84 mJ at TJ = 150°C. This allows operation in inductive switching circuits without external snubbers, provided peak current and voltage transients remain within the SOA boundary defined in the datasheet's avalanche curves.
