Product details
Overview
IRFD9210PBF from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in HVMDIP (4-pin DIP) package, rated for -200 V VDS, 3.0 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and 1.0 W power dissipation. It supports repetitive avalanche operation, fast switching (tr = 12 ns), and automatic insertion in industrial power control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFD9210PBF datasheet, IRFD9210PBF pinout, IRFD9210PBF application, or IRFD9210PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its -200 V blocking capability, low gate charge (8.9 nC), thermal performance in through-hole mounting, and suitability for high-voltage DC-DC converters, relay drivers, and load switches where ruggedness and dV/dt immunity are critical.
Technical Context
This device uses Vishay's high-voltage DMOS process to achieve low on-resistance with high transconductance and extreme ruggedness. Its P-channel topology enables high-side switching without level-shifting circuitry, and its dual-drain configuration improves thermal conduction to the PCB.
The IRFD9210PBF features dynamic dV/dt rating (-5.0 V/ns), repetitive avalanche capability (IAR = -0.40 A), and body diode recovery time (trr = 110–220 ns), making it suitable for inductive load switching in unclamped inductive turn-off conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -200 V - Supports high-voltage DC bus isolation up to 200 V reverse polarity |
| RDS(on) | 3.0 Ω @ VGS = -10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 0.4 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 8.9 nC - Low gate drive energy requirement for efficient PWM switching at 100 kHz+ |
| PD | 1.0 W @ TA = 25 °C - Requires minimal heatsinking in DIP-mounted applications |
| tr/tf | 12 ns / 13 ns - Enables fast transition between on/off states with reduced switching losses |
| EAS | 210 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure in relay or solenoid drive |
| RthJA | 120 °C/W - Thermal resistance confirms need for copper pour or forced airflow above ~0.3 W dissipation |
Pinout & Package
HVMDIP (High-Voltage Mini-DIP) package: 4-pin through-hole, 0.1" pin pitch, dual drain leads (D1/D2) for enhanced thermal path to PCB ground plane; total package height ≤ 7.36 mm; lead-free per RoHS.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Pin 1 & 4) | Drain (dual) | Primary high-voltage power terminal; both pins electrically connected internally and serve as thermal interface to PCB |
| G (Pin 2) | Gate | Control input requiring -10 V for full enhancement; threshold range -2.0 to -4.0 V ensures logic-level compatibility with -5 V drivers |
| S (Pin 3) | Source | Reference node for gate drive and load return; connects to system ground or positive rail in high-side switch configurations |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Enables reliable operation under unclamped inductive switching (e.g., relay coils) without external snubbers |
| Dynamic dV/dt rating | -5.0 V/ns immunity prevents false turn-on during high-slew-rate voltage transients in noisy industrial environments |
| End stackable DIP format | Allows vertical stacking of multiple units on same PCB footprint for parallel current handling or redundancy |
| Fast switching with low Qgd | 3.9 nC gate-drain charge minimizes Miller plateau duration, improving controllability during hard switching |
| Low RDS(on) temperature coefficient | Negative ΔVDS/TJ (-0.23 V/°C) stabilizes breakdown voltage across -55 to +150 °C operating range |
Applications
| Industrial Relay Driver | High-Voltage DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 24–48 V DC electromagnetic relays in PLC I/O modules with frequent make/break cycles. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel switch controlling relay coil current; operates in linear and saturated regions during turn-on/turn-off transitions. Use Value: Repetitive avalanche rating absorbs coil flyback energy without clamping diodes; -200 V VDS headroom prevents breakdown during 100 V transients. | Use Scenario: Synchronous rectification or primary-side switch in isolated flyback or forward converters up to 100 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Power switching element handling high-voltage DC input; used in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) with controlled dV/dt. Use Value: 12 ns rise time and 8.9 nC Qg reduce switching losses; dual drain improves thermal coupling to PCB for stable 1 W operation. |
| Automotive Load Switch | Programmable Power Supply |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side load switch with integrated body diode for reverse-polarity protection and inductive kick management. Use Value: Body diode VSD = -5.8 V at -0.4 A enables low-loss freewheeling; -55 to +150 °C TJ rating supports under-hood deployment. | Use Scenario: Precision programmable output stage in benchtop power supplies requiring adjustable current limiting and soft-start. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Adjustable series pass element controlled by op-amp feedback loop; operates in linear region for regulation. Use Value: Low RDS(on) tolerance (±15% typical) and stable gfs = 0.27 S ensure predictable current compliance; ease of paralleling allows scaling to higher output currents. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFD120PBF | VDS = -100 V, RDS(on) = 0.27 Ω, Qg = 14 nC - lower voltage rating but lower on-resistance and higher gate charge | Not suitable for >100 V bus applications; better for 12–48 V systems needing higher current density | Select when system VDD ≤ 80 V and RDS(on) < 0.3 Ω is prioritized over voltage margin |
| STP20PF06 | VDS = -60 V, RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω, TO-220 package - lower voltage, lower RDS(on), higher power dissipation (60 W), no avalanche rating | Requires heatsink; lacks repetitive avalanche capability; unsuitable for unclamped inductive loads | Choose only for low-voltage, high-current linear or switching applications where thermal mass compensates for lack of ruggedness |
Compared with IRFD9210PBF, IRFD120PBF offers lower conduction loss but sacrifices 100 V of blocking margin and adds 5.1 nC gate charge, while STP20PF06 trades voltage rating, avalanche robustness, and compact DIP packaging for raw current-handling capacity - making IRFD9210PBF uniquely suited for space-constrained, high-reliability 200 V-class industrial controls.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFD9210PBF at 100 °C ambient temperature?
The IRFD9210PBF supports -0.25 A continuous drain current at TA = 100 °C, derated from -0.40 A at 25 °C using a linear derating factor of 0.0083 W/°C. This reflects its 1.0 W power dissipation limit and 120 °C/W junction-to-ambient thermal resistance. Designers must verify PCB copper area and airflow to maintain safe junction temperatures under sustained load in real-world IRFD9210PBF deployments.
Does IRFD9210PBF require a gate resistor for stable switching?
Yes - a gate resistor is recommended to control dI/dt and suppress ringing, especially given the IRFD9210PBF's 8.9 nC total gate charge and fast 12 ns rise time. Typical values range from 10 Ω to 47 Ω depending on driver strength and layout parasitics. The datasheet specifies Rg = 24 Ω for switching time characterization, confirming that external gate resistance is integral to achieving specified tr, tf, and EMI performance in IRFD9210PBF circuits.
Can IRFD9210PBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - the IRFD9210PBF is explicitly designed for ease of paralleling, supported by its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) and matched threshold voltage distribution. Parallel operation improves current handling and thermal sharing, provided gate drive impedance and PCB trace lengths are balanced. This capability is validated in Vishay's application guidance for multi-device load switching, and is a documented feature of the IRFD9210PBF product family.
What is the body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of IRFD9210PBF?
The IRFD9210PBF has a body diode reverse recovery charge of 0.56–1.1 μC, measured at TJ = 25 °C, IF = -2.3 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. This parameter directly impacts switching loss and voltage overshoot during hard-commutation events. Designers should account for Qrr in snubber design and efficiency calculations - particularly critical in flyback or synchronous rectifier topologies where the IRFD9210PBF body diode conducts freewheeling current.
Is IRFD9210PBF suitable for logic-level gate drive?
No - the IRFD9210PBF is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate-source threshold voltage ranges from -2.0 V to -4.0 V, and it requires -10 V VGS to achieve rated RDS(on) = 3.0 Ω. While it may weakly conduct at -5 V, performance degrades significantly (RDS(on) increases >2×). For reliable saturation, dedicated -10 V gate drivers or level-shifted supplies are required - a key distinction from true logic-level P-channel devices like the FQP47P06.
