Product details
Overview
IRFBA1405PPBF from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in Super-220™ package, rated for 55V VDSS, 5.0 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 174 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It features 175°C junction temperature rating, repetitive avalanche capability, and fast switching with 13 ns turn-on delay and 110 ns fall time - deployed in high-current motor drive inverters and DC-DC synchronous rectifiers.
For engineers reviewing the IRFBA1405PPBF datasheet, IRFBA1405PPBF pinout, IRFBA1405PPBF application, or IRFBA1405PPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.45°C/W RθJC, 560 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, TO-220-compatible mechanical outline with TO-247-level current handling, and Q101 automotive qualification status.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses stripe planar silicon processing to achieve ultra-low on-resistance per die area while maintaining ruggedness under unclamped inductive switching. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) and 69 S forward transconductance support stable enhancement-mode operation across industrial temperature ranges.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 1.3 V forward voltage at 101 A and 88–130 ns reverse recovery time, enabling efficient freewheeling in hard-switched topologies. Its 280 pF Crss and 5480 pF Ciss values define gate drive requirements for <130 ns total switching transitions under 1.1 Ω gate resistance.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; sets upper limit for bus voltage in 48 V systems. |
| RDS(on) | 4.3–5.0 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables ≤0.9 W conduction loss at 150 A, critical for thermal management in compact inverters. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 174 A - Continuous current rating with heatsink; supports parallel-free designs in 10–20 kW motor drives. |
| EAS | 560 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy; allows safe operation during short-circuit events without external snubbers. |
| RθJC | 0.45 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; enables direct mounting to cold plates with minimal thermal interface resistance. |
| Qg | 170–260 nC - Total gate charge; determines gate driver peak current requirement (~2.5 A for 100 ns rise time). |
| tf | 110 ns - Fall time with RG = 1.1 Ω; defines minimum dead-time setting to prevent shoot-through in half-bridge configurations. |
Pinout & Package
IRFBA1405PPBF is housed in the Super-220™ package - a TO-220 outline-compliant housing with enhanced thermal and current-handling capability due to larger silicon die area and optimized internal leadframe design. It is mechanically and electrically compatible with standard TO-220 mounting hardware and PCB footprints.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (D) | Main power output terminal | Internally connected to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to system ground. |
| Source (S) | Power return path / reference node | Low-inductance source connection critical for minimizing switching oscillation; ties directly to PCB ground plane. |
| Gate (G) | Control input | High-impedance MOS control node requiring low-impedance gate driver and local 10 nF bypass capacitor. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super-220™ package | TO-220 footprint with 174 A rating - eliminates redesign when upgrading from TO-220 or replacing TO-247 in space-constrained layouts. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to Tjmax - removes need for external clamping circuits in motor phase-leg protection. |
| 175°C maximum junction temperature | Enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating - extends reliability in industrial motor drives. |
| Dynamic dv/dt rating | 5.0 V/ns - ensures immunity to false turn-on during high-speed commutation in 48 V battery systems. |
| Q101 qualified | Automotive-grade stress testing compliance - validates suitability for e-bike controllers, EPS, and 48 V mild-hybrid DC/DC converters. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Drive | 48 V DC-DC Converter |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N5LF8AG | 55 V, 2.2 mΩ RDS(on), 220 A, PowerFLAT 8x8 package; no avalanche rating | Requires external avalanche protection; limited to surface-mount-only PCBs with strict thermal vias | Preferred for space-constrained, high-efficiency SMPS where avalanche robustness is managed at circuit level |
| IXFH50N55P | 55 V, 11 mΩ RDS(on), 50 A, TO-247 package; 1000 mJ EAS | Lower current density; requires larger heatsink but offers higher avalanche margin | Chosen when system-level fault tolerance exceeds component-level requirements and board space permits TO-247 layout |
Compared with STL220N5LF8AG and IXFH50N55P, IRFBA1405PPBF uniquely balances TO-220 compatibility, 174 A current, 560 mJ avalanche energy, and Q101 qualification - making it optimal for automotive-adjacent industrial motor drives where footprint, ruggedness, and qualification converge.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-to-source voltage for IRFBA1405PPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V. Operation beyond ±20 V risks irreversible gate oxide breakdown. Recommended gate drive is +10 V to +15 V for full enhancement and –5 V to –10 V for fast, reliable turn-off - verified per Fig. 6 gate charge curve and thermal derating limits in the datasheet.
Can IRFBA1405PPBF be used in synchronous rectification without external Schottky diodes?
Yes - its body diode has 1.3 V forward voltage at 101 A and 88–130 ns reverse recovery time, enabling efficient synchronous rectification in 300–500 kHz DC-DC converters. However, gate timing must ensure precise overlap control to avoid cross-conduction; use of dedicated synchronous rectifier controllers (e.g., IR1167) is recommended.
Is IRFBA1405PPBF suitable for paralleling without current-sharing resistors?
Yes - its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (Fig. 4) ensures inherent current balancing above 100°C junction temperature. For stable sharing at room temperature, match gate drive impedance and layout symmetry; typical designs achieve <10% current imbalance across four paralleled units with identical PCB routing.
Does the Super-220™ package require special mounting torque or thermal interface material?
Yes - the recommended clip force is 20 N, and a thermally conductive, electrically isolating interface material (e.g., 0.1 mm thick silicone pad with 1.5 W/m·K conductivity) is required between tab and heatsink. Mounting screws must be torqued to 0.5–0.7 N·m to maintain consistent thermal contact without die cracking.
