Product details
Overview
IRFB3004PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 40 V, 340 A (silicon-limited), 1.4 mΩ typ. N-channel HEXFET Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, optimized for high-current synchronous rectification and hard-switched DC-DC conversion in server VRMs and telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFB3004PBF datasheet, IRFB3004PBF pinout, IRFB3004PBF application, or IRFB3004PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.4 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 160 nC total gate charge, 2020 pF Coss, 195 A body diode continuous current rating, and avalanche energy rating of 380 mJ (single-pulse).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon-gate technology with enhanced body diode dV/dt and dI/dt capability, enabling robust operation in high-frequency, high-di/dt synchronous buck stages. Its low Qgd/Qg ratio (68/160 nC) supports fast switching with reduced Miller-induced shoot-through risk.
The device features fully characterized SOA curves up to 100 µs pulse width, thermally limited EAS of 380 mJ, and validated unclamped inductive switching performance at IAS = 195 A, confirming ruggedness in overcurrent fault conditions without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12 V and 48 V input bus architectures. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 1.4 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, TJ = 25°C - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 195 A, critical for >95% efficiency in high-current VRMs. |
| ID (silicon-limited) | 340 A @ TC = 25°C - Sets theoretical current ceiling before thermal runaway; actual usable current limited by bond wire (195 A) and PCB thermal design. |
| Qg | 160 nC max - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed trade-off in 300–1000 kHz SMPS designs. |
| Coss | 2020 pF - Directly impacts turn-off energy loss (Eoff ∝ VDS² × Coss) and resonant behavior in ZVS circuits. |
| EAS | 380 mJ (single-pulse) - Quantifies safe unclamped inductive energy absorption during short-circuit events without junction failure. |
| VSD | 1.3 V max @ IS = 195 A - Low forward drop reduces reverse conduction loss in synchronous rectifier mode. |
Pinout & Package
IRFB3004PBF uses a TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard three-terminal layout, and lead-free plating compliant with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path output / heat sink interface | Electrically connected to metal tab; requires insulating washer when mounted to grounded heatsink. |
| Source | Power return reference / body diode cathode | Low-inductance connection point for source loop; ties to power ground plane in high-di/dt layouts. |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <2.7 Ω series resistance to damp ringing; sensitive to ESD (±20 V max). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Enhanced body diode dV/dt capability | Validated >930 A/µs di/dt with VDD ≤ 40 V - enables reliable commutation in synchronous rectifiers without external diode. |
| Thermally limited avalanche rating | 380 mJ single-pulse EAS at TJ = 25°C - eliminates need for external clamping in overcurrent protection schemes. |
| Low Coss effective capacitance | 2440 pF (energy-related) - reduces turn-off loss and improves light-load efficiency in hard-switched topologies. |
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant construction | Meets JEDEC J-STD-020D reflow profile - supports automated assembly without lead contamination concerns. |
| Characterized SOA for pulsed operation | Rated up to 100 µs at 340 A, 40 V - provides verified safe operating area for transient overload handling. |
Applications
| Server Voltage Regulator Modules | Telecom 48 V DC-DC Converters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N4F7AG | RDS(on) = 0.75 mΩ (lower), Qg = 195 nC (higher), TO-247-3L package | Requires larger footprint and higher gate drive power; better for ultra-low-loss but lower-frequency (<200 kHz) designs | Select when lowest possible conduction loss dominates over switching loss and board space is unconstrained. |
| IXFH300N04S4 | RDS(on) = 1.25 mΩ, Coss = 2300 pF, D2Pak package, higher thermal resistance (RθJA = 40 °C/W) | Higher switching loss due to larger Coss; better suited for PCB-mount thermal management vs. heatsink mounting | Prefer when using FR-4 PCB copper pour for heat spreading instead of external heatsink attachment. |
Compared with STL220N4F7AG and IXFH300N04S4, IRFB3004PBF offers the optimal balance of ultra-low RDS(on), moderate gate charge, and TO-220AB mechanical compatibility-making it ideal for cost-sensitive, high-volume 300–600 kHz VRM and telecom power designs where thermal interface reliability is prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFB3004PBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current at TC = 100°C is 240 A, specified under VGS = 10 V. This rating reflects thermal derating from the 340 A value at 25°C, constrained by junction-to-case thermal resistance (0.40 °C/W) and maximum allowable TJ = 175°C. It assumes proper heatsinking with greased interface.
Does IRFB3004PBF have a fully rated body diode for synchronous rectification?
Yes-the integrated body diode is fully characterized for synchronous rectifier use: continuous source current IS = 340 A, pulsed ISM = 1310 A, reverse recovery time trr = 27 ns (TJ = 25°C), and reverse recovery charge Qrr = 18 nC. Its dI/dt capability of 930 A/µs is validated per datasheet Figure 21.
Can IRFB3004PBF be used in avalanche mode for overvoltage protection?
Yes-its single-pulse avalanche energy EAS is rated at 380 mJ (TJ = 25°C), with repetitive avalanche energy EAR = 240 mJ at 1% duty cycle. Safe operation requires limiting junction temperature to ≤175°C using the transient thermal impedance curve (Figure 13) and verifying circuit parameters per AN-1005.
What is the gate threshold voltage range, and how does it vary with temperature?
VGS(th) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25°C, with a positive temperature coefficient of +0.037 V/°C. At 175°C, typical threshold rises to ~3.6 V, improving gate drive noise immunity but requiring sufficient gate drive headroom above 10 V for full enhancement.
