Product details
Overview
IRFD210 from Vishay Siliconix is a 200 V, 0.60 A N-channel power MOSFET in HVMDIP (4-pin DIP) package, featuring 1.5 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 8.2 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating. It serves as a low-cost, machine-insertable switching device for low-power DC-DC converters, relay drivers, and LED dimming circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFD210 datasheet, IRFD210 pinout, IRFD210 application, or IRFD210 equivalent, key selection considerations include its 1 W power dissipation limit, 120 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance, 79 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and compatibility with automatic insertion and end-stacking assembly processes.
Technical Context
The IRFD210 is a third-generation planar VDMOS device optimized for ruggedness and fast switching in low-current, high-voltage applications. Its design includes dynamic dV/dt immunity (5.0 V/ns), integrated body diode with 150–310 ns reverse recovery time, and gate drive simplicity requiring only 10 V for full enhancement.
Thermal performance is constrained by its HVMDIP package: maximum junction temperature is 150 °C, with linear derating of 0.0083 W/°C above 25 °C ambient. The dual-drain configuration provides a thermal path to the PCB, enabling up to 1 W dissipation without heatsinking under natural convection.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 200 V - supports operation in 100–160 V DC bus applications with margin |
| RDS(on) | 1.5 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - enables <1 W conduction loss at 0.6 A continuous current |
| Qg | 8.2 nC - allows fast switching with standard 5–10 mA gate drivers |
| EAS | 79 mJ - provides unclamped inductive switching robustness in relay/snubberless designs |
| TJ Range | −55 to +150 °C - qualified for industrial and extended-temperature environments |
| PD | 1.0 W @ TA = 25 °C - defines maximum usable power without forced cooling |
| dV/dt Rating | 5.0 V/ns - ensures noise immunity in high-dV/dt switching nodes |
Pinout & Package
The IRFD210 uses the HVMDIP (High Voltage Mini-DIP) package: 4-pin, 0.1" pitch, dual-drain leadframe for thermal conduction to PCB. Overall dimensions: 8.38 mm × 10.79 mm × 7.36 mm (L × W × H).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Drain) | Main drain connection | One of two parallel drain leads; both must be soldered for rated current and thermal performance |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control terminal | High-impedance MOS gate requiring no steady-state current; driven by TTL/CMOS logic |
| Pin 3 (Source) | Reference node for gate drive and load return | Common source node for internal body diode; ties to ground or low-side return path |
| Pin 4 (Drain) | Main drain connection | Second drain lead; electrically identical to Pin 1 and required for full 1 W rating |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Enables reliable operation under inductive turn-off stress without external snubbers (IAR = 0.60 A, EAR = 0.10 mJ) |
| Dynamic dV/dt immunity | 5.0 V/ns threshold prevents false turn-on in noisy high-speed switching environments |
| End stackable DIP package | Allows vertical stacking of multiple IRFD210 units on same PCB footprint for space-constrained layouts |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 4.5/8.2 ≈ 55% - improves Miller immunity and reduces switching instability during hard commutation |
| Machine-insertable HVMDIP | Supports automated through-hole assembly with standard 0.1" pitch tooling and wave soldering |
Applications
| LED Dimming Driver | Low-Power 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP1NK60Z | 600 V VDS, 1 A ID, 11.5 Ω RDS(on), TO-92 package | Higher voltage rating but higher on-resistance and lower current; requires PCB layout change due to TO-92 footprint | Prefer when 600 V blocking is mandatory and 1 W dissipation is acceptable with larger RDS(on) |
| FQP27P06 | P-channel, −60 V VDS, −27 A ID, 0.065 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 | Opposite channel type and polarity; not a functional substitute without circuit redesign | Only suitable for high-side switch configurations where P-channel topology is required |
Compared with STP1NK60Z and FQP27P06, the IRFD210 offers optimal balance of 200 V rating, 1.5 Ω on-resistance, and HVMDIP manufacturability for low-power, high-reliability through-hole switching-without requiring layout changes or gate polarity inversion.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for the IRFD210 at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The IRFD210 supports 0.38 A continuous drain current at TA = 100 °C, derived from its 0.60 A rating at 25 °C and linear derating factor of 0.0083 W/°C. This reflects real-world thermal limits in enclosed enclosures without forced airflow. The IRFD210 must be mounted with both drain pins soldered to maximize heat transfer to the PCB for this rating to apply.
Does the IRFD210 have an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, the IRFD210 includes an integral body diode rated for 0.60 A continuous forward current and 4.8 A pulsed current. Its VSD is 2.0 V at IS = 0.60 A and TJ = 25 °C, with reverse recovery time (trr) between 150 ns and 310 ns depending on test conditions. These values are confirmed in the official Vishay datasheet (S21-0885-Rev. D) for the IRFD210.
Can the IRFD210 be used in avalanche mode, and what are its energy limits?
The IRFD210 is explicitly rated for repetitive avalanche operation: IAR = 0.60 A and EAR = 0.10 mJ per pulse. It also supports single-pulse avalanche with EAS = 79 mJ under defined conditions (VDD = 50 V, L = 82 mH, Rg = 25 Ω). These ratings are validated per Vishay's test methodology and apply directly to the IRFD210 without derating.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the IRFD210, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The IRFD210 has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranging from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at ID = 250 μA. This confirms compatibility with standard 5 V TTL and 3.3 V CMOS logic outputs, though full enhancement (RDS(on) ≤ 1.5 Ω) requires VGS ≥ 10 V. The IRFD210 does not qualify as a "logic-level" MOSFET, so gate drive must supply ≥10 V for specified on-resistance.
Is the IRFD210 RoHS-compliant, and what does the 'PbF' suffix indicate?
Yes, the IRFD210PbF variant is lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant, as confirmed by Vishay's material categorization documentation (www.vishay.com/doc?99912). The 'PbF' suffix in the ordering part number IRFD210PbF explicitly denotes lead-free termination and compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. All IRFD210 units supplied by Aetrix Electronics carry this PbF designation.
