Product details
Overview
IRF9953TR from Infineon Technologies is a dual P-channel MOSFET in SO-8 package, configured as two independent enhancement-mode power switches with −30 V VDS, 3.0 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = −10 V, and −2.3 A continuous drain current per channel. It operates in high-side load switching and dual-H-bridge motor control applications requiring matched complementary conduction.
For engineers reviewing the IRF9953TR datasheet, IRF9953TR pinout, IRF9953TR application, or IRF9953TR equivalent, key selection criteria include verified dual-channel thermal coupling, gate threshold symmetry (VGS(th) = −1.0 to −2.5 V), SO-8 footprint compatibility, and avalanche energy rating (EAS = 150 mJ).
Technical Context
This device integrates two discrete P-MOSFETs on a single die with shared thermal substrate, enabling synchronized switching and matched dynamic parameters. Each channel supports −30 V blocking voltage, −2.3 A DC current, and exhibits RDS(on) ≤ 3.0 Ω at −10 V gate drive and ≤ 4.5 Ω at −4.5 V.
The SO-8 package provides low thermal resistance (RθJA = 70 °C/W) and supports pulsed operation up to 100% duty cycle at TJ ≤ 150 °C. Gate charge is 12 nC total per channel, with Qg/Qgd ratio optimized for fast turn-on while limiting shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | −30 V maximum drain-to-source voltage; enables use in 24 V automotive and industrial bus systems with margin. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = −10 V | ≤ 3.0 Ω per channel; ensures <1.5 W conduction loss at −2.3 A, suitable for thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| ID (continuous) | −2.3 A per channel at TA = 25 °C; derates to −1.3 A at 100 °C ambient in SO-8 without heatsink. |
| Qg (total gate charge) | 12 nC per channel; allows efficient driving with standard logic-level gate drivers (e.g., TC4427) at ≤1 MHz switching. |
| EAS | 150 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy; supports robustness against inductive load turn-off transients in relay/motor drive circuits. |
| VGS(th) | −1.0 V to −2.5 V; guarantees reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller GPIOs using simple level-shifting. |
Pinout & Package
IRF9953TR uses JEDEC-standard SO-8 (MS-012AA) package with exposed drain pad for thermal enhancement. Pin 1 is G1, Pin 2 is S1, Pin 3 is D1, Pin 4 is D1, Pin 5 is D2, Pin 6 is S2, Pin 7 is G2, Pin 8 is D2 - confirmed by top-view marking and internal die layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G1 | Gate of Channel 1 | Controls conduction of first P-MOSFET; referenced to S1; requires negative gate drive relative to source. |
| S1 | Source of Channel 1 | Common return node for Channel 1; tied to load high-side rail or bridge midpoint in H-bridge. |
| D1 | Drain of Channel 1 | Connects to power rail (e.g., +24 V); pins 3 and 4 are internally paralleled for current sharing and lower inductance. |
| D2 | Drain of Channel 2 | Connects to second load or complementary bridge leg; pins 5 and 8 are internally paralleled. |
| S2 | Source of Channel 2 | Independent source node for Channel 2; enables dual independent high-side switches or synchronous rectification. |
| G2 | Gate of Channel 2 | Independent gate input; allows asynchronous control of second channel without cross-talk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual matched P-channel MOSFETs | Guaranteed parameter tracking (RDS(on), VGS(th), Qg) between channels improves current balance in parallel or bridge configurations. |
| SO-8 with exposed drain pad | Reduces RθJA to 70 °C/W and enables direct thermal coupling to PCB copper pour for >1.5 W sustained dissipation. |
| 150 mJ avalanche energy rating | Eliminates need for external snubbers in 24 V solenoid or brushed DC motor commutation circuits. |
| −4.5 V gate drive capability | Supports direct interface with 5 V logic without gate driver ICs, reducing BOM count in space-constrained modules. |
Applications
| Brushed DC Motor Control | High-Side Load Switching |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional control of 12–24 V brushed DC motors in automotive seat adjusters and industrial actuators. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Dual P-MOSFET provides complementary high-side switching in H-bridge topology; each channel handles one motor terminal. Use Value: Matched RDS(on) minimizes torque asymmetry; SO-8 thermal performance sustains 1.8 A RMS current without forced air. | Use Scenario: Power sequencing and fault-isolated supply enable for 24 V subsystems in PLC I/O modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Two independent high-side switches manage separate 24 V rails (e.g., analog sensor supply and digital logic supply). Use Value: Independent gate control allows staggered ramp-up; integrated avalanche ruggedness prevents failure during hot-plug events. |
| LED Driver for Automotive Lighting | Industrial Relay Replacement |
Use Scenario: PWM dimming of high-brightness LED strings (e.g., tail lamps, daytime running lights) in 12 V vehicle platforms. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch modulates current through LED string; second channel drives auxiliary functions (e.g., amber flasher). Use Value: −4.5 V turn-on threshold enables direct MCU PWM output; 150 mJ EAS absorbs inductive kickback from LED current-sense shunt transients. | Use Scenario: Solid-state replacement of electromechanical relays in HVAC control panels and building automation systems. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One channel controls main load (e.g., fan), second channel monitors status via sense resistor in source path. Use Value: Matched VGS(th) ensures consistent turn-on timing across channels; SO-8 footprint fits legacy relay PCB footprints. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si7953DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 2.8 Ω @ −10 V; higher Qg (14.5 nC); same SO-8 package. | Better conduction loss but slower switching; less suitable for >500 kHz PWM LED drivers. | Prefer when thermal margin is critical and switching frequency ≤200 kHz. |
| DMN601DWK-7 | Single-channel dual-die P-MOSFET; RDS(on) = 3.2 Ω @ −10 V; no internal channel isolation. | Lacks independent source terminals; unsuitable for asymmetric load switching or current sensing per channel. | Select only when both channels drive identical loads with common source reference. |
Compared with Si7953DP-T1-GE3 and DMN601DWK-7, IRF9953TR offers balanced trade-offs: lower gate charge than Si7953DP for faster switching, and true dual-channel independence absent in DMN601DWK-critical for H-bridge and differential sensing designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for IRF9953TR?
The junction temperature must not exceed 150 °C under continuous operation. With RθJA = 70 °C/W and 1 W power dissipation, ambient temperature must stay below 80 °C on standard FR-4 PCB with 1-in² 2-oz copper pour. Derating curves in the datasheet confirm −1.3 A ID limit at 100 °C ambient.
Can IRF9953TR be used in a synchronous buck converter as high-side switch?
No-IRF9953TR is a P-channel device intended for high-side switching but lacks integrated bootstrap circuitry or gate driver co-location required for synchronous buck top-side operation. It is suitable for non-synchronous buck (with external diode) or as low-side switch in inverted buck-boost topologies where source is grounded.
Is the SO-8 package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes-IRF9953TR is manufactured with lead-free terminations and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1). The part marking includes "P" designation for lead-free per Infineon's packaging standard.
How does the dual-channel structure affect thermal performance?
Both channels share a common silicon die and thermal path to the exposed drain pad. Under unbalanced loading, heat from the higher-current channel raises the junction temperature of the other channel, requiring derating based on total power (PD = 2.5 W max at TA = 25 °C) rather than per-channel ratings.
