Product details
Overview
IRF9Z34NSPBF from Infineon Technologies is a P-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET designed for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and load switching in industrial power supplies. It features VDSS = –55 V, RDS(on) = 0.11 Ω (at VGS = –10 V), ID = –15 A continuous, and operates up to TJ = 175 °C. Used in synchronous buck converter low-side switches and hot-swap circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRF9Z34NSPBF datasheet, IRF9Z34NSPBF pinout, IRF9Z34NSPBF application, or IRF9Z34NSPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage consistency, safe operating area under pulsed load conditions, SOA-limited avalanche energy rating, and TO-220AB package thermal resistance to heatsink.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized doping profile to achieve low on-resistance while maintaining robust avalanche capability. Its gate oxide thickness and threshold voltage distribution are tuned for stable turn-on behavior across –40 °C to +175 °C ambient.
The device supports standard logic-level drive (VGS(th) = –2.0 to –4.0 V) and exhibits 100% rated UIS (unclamped inductive switching) capability at ID = –15 A, VDD = –55 V, L = 0.1 mH, with no derating required up to TJ = 150 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | –55 V: Maximum drain-source blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines maximum input rail compatibility in negative-rail or high-side switch configurations. |
| RDS(on) | 0.11 Ω @ VGS = –10 V: On-state resistance directly determines conduction loss in continuous current paths; enables <1.7 W dissipation at 15 A DC. |
| ID (continuous) | –15 A @ TC = 25 °C: Continuous drain current rating at case temperature; requires minimum 25 cm² 1 mm thick aluminum heatsink for full-rated operation. |
| Qg | 34 nC @ VGS = –10 V: Total gate charge defining driver strength requirement; compatible with standard half-bridge gate drivers (e.g., IR2110). |
| EAS | 350 mJ: Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; supports reliable operation during inductive turn-off transients without external snubbers. |
| TJ max | 175 °C: Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in sealed enclosures with limited airflow when derated per SOA curves. |
Pinout & Package
IRF9Z34NSPBF is housed in a through-hole TO-220AB package with isolated tab (non-conductive mounting surface). Thermal resistance RθJC = 1.0 °C/W enables direct heatsink attachment using insulating washer and thermal paste.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current-carrying terminal connected to internal die substrate | Electrically tied to drain; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system design permits common-drain configuration. |
| Gate | Control electrode for channel formation | Requires ≤ ±20 V drive; sensitive to ESD; gate resistor ≥ 10 Ω recommended to damp ringing during fast switching. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return path | Serves as local ground reference for gate driver; trace inductance must be minimized to prevent shoot-through in bridge topologies. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested | Every unit validated for unclamped inductive switching at rated current/voltage-ensures field reliability in motor drive and solenoid control. |
| Lead-free (PbF) construction | Meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU; SnAgCu solder compatible; no post-process lead reflow required. |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 120 ns typical; reduces reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths. |
| Low gate charge | Qg = 34 nC enables efficient 100–500 kHz switching with minimal driver power consumption. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF9Z34NLPBF | Same die, different assembly lot code and date marking; identical RDS(on), Qg, and SOA ratings. | No functional difference; used interchangeably in production where lot traceability requirements differ. | Select based on procurement availability and lot history tracking needs-not electrical performance. |
| STP16PF55 | VDSS = –55 V, RDS(on) = 0.12 Ω, but higher Qg = 48 nC and lower EAS = 220 mJ. | Less suitable for high-frequency (>250 kHz) or high-energy inductive switching; requires larger gate driver. | Prefer IRF9Z34NSPBF where fast switching or robust avalanche immunity is critical. |
Compared with IRF9Z34NLPBF, the NSPBF variant offers identical electrical performance but distinct lot coding for traceability; versus STP16PF55, it delivers superior switching efficiency and transient ruggedness at marginally higher cost.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-source voltage rating for IRF9Z34NSPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±20 V. Exceeding this value risks irreversible gate oxide breakdown. For reliable operation, gate drive should be clamped to –12 V to –15 V during turn-on and held at 0 V during off-state. The device's VGS(th) range of –2.0 V to –4.0 V ensures consistent turn-on with standard logic-level drivers.
Does IRF9Z34NSPBF require a heatsink in 15 A continuous operation?
Yes. At ID = –15 A and TA = 25 °C, junction temperature exceeds 175 °C without heatsinking. A minimum 25 cm² aluminum heatsink (1 mm thick, matte black anodized) with thermal interface material is required to maintain TJ ≤ 150 °C at full current. Derating to 10 A is necessary with no heatsink.
Can IRF9Z34NSPBF be used in parallel with other MOSFETs?
Yes, but only with matched units from the same wafer lot and careful attention to gate drive symmetry. Its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) provides inherent current sharing above 100 °C junction temperature. Layout must ensure equal source inductance (<1 nH) and gate resistance (≥10 Ω) per device to avoid oscillation or current imbalance.
Is IRF9Z34NSPBF suitable for linear mode (active region) operation?
It is rated for linear mode use per its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve, supporting 100 ms pulses at VDS = –30 V and ID = –10 A with TC = 25 °C. Continuous linear operation is not recommended due to thermal runaway risk; forced-air cooling and strict VGS control are mandatory if used in analog pass elements.
