Product details
Overview
IRF9Z14SPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for -60 V VDS, 0.50 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, 6.7 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, fully avalanche rated, and qualified for 175 °C operation - used in high-side switching, DC-DC converter synchronous rectification, and motor control H-bridge legs.
For engineers reviewing the IRF9Z14SPBF datasheet, IRF9Z14SPBF pinout, IRF9Z14SPBF application, or IRF9Z14SPBF equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal performance data, validated D2PAK pin configuration, and real-world design context for high-reliability power switching in industrial and automotive subsystems.
Technical Context
This device employs Vishay's third-generation trench-gate process to achieve low on-resistance per die area while maintaining rugged unclamped inductive switching capability. Its gate threshold voltage range of -2.0 V to -4.0 V ensures reliable turn-on with standard -10 V gate drive and supports partial logic-level compatibility down to -5 V.
The integrated body diode exhibits 80–160 ns reverse recovery time and 96–190 nC Qrr under specified conditions, enabling use in freewheeling paths where controlled diode conduction is required. Thermal resistance from junction-to-case is 3.5 °C/W, supporting high-power dissipation when mounted on copper-clad PCBs with thermal pad soldering.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -60 V - Maximum blocking voltage for high-side switch in 48 V systems or buck converter upper FET |
| RDS(on) | 0.50 Ω @ VGS = -10 V - Enables ≤3.4 W conduction loss at 6.7 A, critical for thermal management |
| ID (cont) | -6.7 A @ TC = 25 °C - Sustains full load current without derating when heatsinked to case |
| EAS | 140 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy in motor drive or relay snubbing without failure |
| Qg | 12 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed in PWM applications |
| TJ Range | -55 to +175 °C - Supports operation in under-hood automotive or industrial ambient environments |
| RthJC | 3.5 °C/W - Enables precise junction temperature estimation using measured case temperature |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain thermal pad on underside; requires minimum 0.635" × 0.420" copper pad per Vishay AN826 for optimal thermal performance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Source) | Source terminal (P-channel) | Reference node for gate drive; connects to system ground or low-side rail in high-side configuration |
| 2 (Gate) | Control input | Accepts negative voltage relative to source to turn on; threshold -2.0 to -4.0 V |
| 3 (Drain) | Main power output | High-current path to load; electrically and thermally connected to exposed metal tab |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully avalanche rated | Guarantees survivability under unclamped inductive switching up to 140 mJ without derating |
| 175 °C operating temperature | Enables deployment in sealed enclosures or near heat sources without thermal shutdown risk |
| Low-profile surface-mount (D2PAK) | Reduces board height vs. through-hole alternatives while delivering 43 W power dissipation |
| Fast switching (tr = 63 ns, tf = 31 ns) | Minimizes transition losses in high-frequency DC-DC converters (>100 kHz) |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.425) | Improves Miller immunity and reduces risk of spurious turn-on during high dV/dt events |
Applications
| Motor Drive H-Bridge | Industrial DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional 24–48 V brushed DC motor control with regenerative braking. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch in H-bridge leg; handles reverse current during PWM off-time via body diode. Use Value: Avalanche rating absorbs inductive kickback; 175 °C rating sustains operation during stall conditions. |
Use Scenario: Isolated 48 V to 12 V synchronous buck converter in PLC power supply. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Upper switch in primary-side synchronous rectifier stage; driven by isolated gate driver. Use Value: 0.50 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.5 W at full load; D2PAK thermal pad enables compact heatsinking. |
| Automotive Body Control Module | High-Side Load Switch |
Use Scenario: Power distribution to headlights, HVAC actuators, or window lift motors in 12 V/24 V chassis. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch with integrated current limiting and overtemperature protection (external circuitry).

Use Scenario: Controlled power-up of FPGA, microcontroller, or sensor subsystems requiring inrush current limiting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power path switch; gate driven by microcontroller GPIO via level shifter. Use Value: Gate threshold allows direct interface with -5 V logic; fast turn-off (31 ns fall time) prevents bus contention during sequencing. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiHF9Z14S-GE3 | Same silicon die, lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free; identical RDS(on), Qg, and avalanche rating | No functional difference; selected where RoHS compliance is mandatory | Drop-in replacement if Pb-free compliance is required; same D2PAK footprint and thermal behavior |
| IRF9Z24NPBF | Higher RDS(on) (0.27 Ω), higher ID (11 A), same VDS (-60 V), TO-220 package | Requires through-hole layout change and larger heatsink; better for higher-current, lower-frequency apps | Choose when higher current capacity is needed and surface-mount constraint is relaxed |
Compared with IRF9Z14SPBF, SiHF9Z14S-GE3 offers identical electrical and thermal performance with environmental compliance, while IRF9Z24NPBF trades D2PAK compactness for higher current handling in TO-220 - making IRF9Z14SPBF optimal for space-constrained, medium-current, high-reliability surface-mount designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRF9Z14SPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRF9Z14SPBF supports -4.7 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the D2PAK package and must be applied when heatsinking cannot maintain TC ≤ 25 °C. Designers should verify junction temperature using RthJC = 3.5 °C/W and actual power dissipation.
Does IRF9Z14SPBF have a built-in body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, IRF9Z14SPBF integrates a P-channel body diode with typical forward voltage of -5.5 V at -6.7 A and 25 °C, reverse recovery time of 80–160 ns, and reverse recovery charge of 96–190 nC. These values are measured under standardized conditions (TJ = 25 °C, IF = -6.7 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs) and enable use in freewheeling and synchronous rectification roles.
Can IRF9Z14SPBF be driven directly from a 3.3 V microcontroller GPIO?
No - IRF9Z14SPBF has a gate threshold voltage range of -2.0 V to -4.0 V and requires a negative gate-source voltage for turn-on. A 3.3 V GPIO cannot produce the necessary -5 V to -10 V swing. A level-shifting gate driver or charge pump circuit is required to generate sufficient negative gate drive relative to the source node.
What is the avalanche energy rating of IRF9Z14SPBF, and how is it tested?
The IRF9Z14SPBF is rated for 140 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) under test conditions of VDD = -25 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 3.6 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = -6.7 A. This rating confirms ruggedness against inductive switching stress and is validated per JEDEC JESD24-1, not just theoretical calculation.
Is the D2PAK package of IRF9Z14SPBF compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles?
Yes - IRF9Z14SPBF's D2PAK package is qualified for lead-free reflow per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. Peak temperature must not exceed 260 °C for ≤10 s, and thermal pad soldering is recommended using Vishay's AN826 pad layout (0.635" × 0.420") to ensure mechanical reliability and optimal thermal transfer to the PCB.
