Product details
Overview
IRFB3004GPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is an N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-220 package, rated for 40V VDS, 195A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and 3.0mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10V. It serves as a high-current synchronous rectifier or primary-side switch in DC-DC converters and motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the IRFB3004GPBF datasheet, IRFB3004GPBF pinout, IRFB3004GPBF application, or IRFB3004GPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance at 10V gate drive, rugged avalanche rating (EAS = 780mJ), and thermal performance in high-power switching topologies requiring <100W conduction loss.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized gate oxide and source metallization to achieve low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit. Its threshold voltage range is 2.0–4.0V, supporting standard 5V/10V logic-level gate drivers without level-shifting.
The device features fully characterized SOA curves up to 10ms, specified avalanche energy rating, and guaranteed 100% UIS testing per production lot - enabling reliable operation in hard-switched and inductive load applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40V - Maximum blocking voltage before breakdown; suitable for 12V/24V automotive and industrial bus systems. |
| ID (continuous, TC=25°C) | 195A - Sustained current capability with heatsink; enables single-device solutions for >2kW 24V DC-DC stages. |
| RDS(on) (typ, VGS=10V) | 3.0mΩ - Low conduction loss: ~11.5W at 195A, critical for thermal management in compact enclosures. |
| Qg (typ) | 120nC - Gate charge determining driver strength requirement; compatible with common 2A peak gate drivers. |
| EAS | 780mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating; supports robustness against inductive switching transients without snubbers. |
| TJ max | 175°C - Maximum junction temperature; allows operation in under-hood or enclosed industrial environments. |
Pinout & Package
IRFB3004GPBF uses a 3-pin TO-220AB package with drain-connected tab. The case is electrically connected to the drain terminal, requiring insulated mounting hardware when mounted to heatsinks.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path from source to load | Electrically tied to metal tab; must be isolated from chassis unless drain-referenced topology. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return | Low-inductance connection point; used as ground reference for gate driver ICs. |
| Gate | Control electrode for channel formation | High-impedance input requiring <120nC charge; sensitive to ESD and ringing without proper RC damping. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 3.0mΩ @ 10V ensures <12W conduction loss at 195A - reduces heatsink size by ≥40% vs. 5mΩ alternatives. |
| 100% UIS tested | Every unit validated for unclamped inductive switching stress - eliminates field failures in motor control and solenoid drivers. |
| Enhanced body diode recovery | Soft, low-Qrr reverse recovery minimizes voltage spikes and EMI in synchronous rectification. |
| Lead-free and RoHS compliant | Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 - supports lead-free reflow without popcorn cracking. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP195N4F6 | RDS(on) = 3.2mΩ @ 10V; Qg = 135nC; same TO-220 package | Slightly higher gate charge increases driver losses by ~12% at 200kHz | Preferred where STMicroelectronics supply chain alignment is required |
| IXTH190N40L2 | RDS(on) = 3.6mΩ @ 10V; higher VGS(th) (3.0–5.5V); TO-247 package | Larger package improves thermal resistance but requires PCB layout change | Chosen when board-level thermal resistance exceeds 0.4°C/W and TO-247 footprint is available |
Compared with STP195N4F6 and IXTH190N40L2, IRFB3004GPBF delivers the lowest RDS(on) in TO-220, enabling highest power density in space-constrained 40V systems without sacrificing avalanche ruggedness or gate drive compatibility.

FAQ
What is the maximum pulsed drain current (IDM) for IRFB3004GPBF?
The datasheet specifies IDM = 780A at TC = 25°C for pulse width ≤10μs and duty cycle ≤1%. This rating reflects short-circuit withstand capability during fault conditions and is validated via standardized test circuits per JEDEC JESD24-11.
Does IRFB3004GPBF require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes - a 5–10Ω series gate resistor is recommended to dampen parasitic oscillation caused by gate-drain capacitance (Cgd) and PCB trace inductance. Without it, ringing above 100MHz can cause false turn-on and localized hot spots near the gate pad.
Is IRFB3004GPBF suitable for linear mode operation?
No - it is not characterized or qualified for linear (active region) operation. SOA curves are only provided for switching conditions; sustained linear use risks thermal runaway due to positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) and insufficient Safe Operating Area margin.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RθJC)?
RθJC is 0.31°C/W measured per JEDEC 51-14 standard on a 1in² copper pad with 2oz Cu and no thermal interface material. With standard thermal paste and aluminum heatsink, total RθJA drops to ~1.2°C/W - enabling 195A operation at TC ≤ 80°C.
