Product details
Overview
IRFHM831TRPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 30 V, 40 A (TC = 25°C) N-channel PQFN power MOSFET with RDS(on) = 6.6 mΩ (typ) at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 7.3 nC (typ), and RθJC(Bottom) < 4.7°C/W - optimized as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or control switch in DC-DC buck converters for server VRMs and telecom POL modules.
For engineers reviewing the IRFHM831TRPBF datasheet, IRFHM831TRPBF pinout, IRFHM831TRPBF application, or IRFHM831TRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include low gate charge for ZVS/ZCS switching, ultra-low thermal resistance to PCB for high-current density layouts, and industry-standard PQFN 3.3 × 3.3 mm footprint compatibility with multi-vendor board designs.
Technical Context
This HEXFET® device uses trench-gate silicon technology to achieve sub-7 mΩ on-resistance at 10 V drive while maintaining fast switching (td(on) = 6.9 ns, tf = 4.7 ns) and low output capacitance (Coss = 190 pF at VDS = 25 V). Its body diode exhibits trr = 15–22 ns and Qrr = 16–24 nC under 300 A/µs di/dt, enabling efficient synchronous rectification without external Schottky replacement.
The PQFN package integrates an exposed drain pad on the bottom surface, enabling direct thermal coupling to the PCB copper plane. Gate resistance is factory-trimmed and 100% tested (Rg = 0.5 Ω typ), ensuring consistent turn-on timing across production lots and reducing gate driver design margin requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - supports 12 V and 24 V input bus architectures with 2× voltage margin for transient spikes. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 6.6 mΩ (typ) - enables ≤1.0 W conduction loss at 40 A continuous drain current with minimal heatsinking. |
| Qg | 7.3 nC (typ) - reduces gate driver power consumption and allows use of low-power controllers in high-frequency (>1 MHz) converters. |
| RθJC(Bottom) | < 4.7°C/W - permits >27 W power dissipation at TC = 25°C when mounted on ≥2 oz Cu PCB with thermal vias. |
| ID @ TC = 25°C | 40 A - rated for continuous operation in high-current POL stages without derating below 100°C case temperature. |
| tr/tf | 12 ns / 4.7 ns - supports clean edge transitions in hard-switched topologies with minimal EMI generation. |
| VSD | 1.0 V @ IS = 12 A - defines forward voltage drop of integrated body diode during freewheeling phase in buck converters. |
Pinout & Package
PQFN 3.3 × 3.3 mm, 8-pin package with exposed drain pad (Pin 1–3: Source; Pin 4–6: Drain; Pin 7–8: Gate; Bottom thermal pad: Drain). RoHS-compliant, MSL1, industrial temperature qualified (−55°C to +150°C).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 (Top side) | Source | Common return path for load current; electrically tied to internal source metallization and bottom thermal pad via internal vias. |
| 4–6 (Top side) | Drain | Main high-side current path; connected directly to exposed bottom drain pad for lowest possible RDS(on) and thermal resistance. |
| 7–8 (Top side) | Gate | Control terminal with 0.5 Ω typical series resistance; requires <10 V drive for full enhancement; no level-shifting needed in low-side configurations. |
| Bottom pad | Drain (thermal & electrical) | Primary heat extraction surface; must be soldered to ≥200 mm² copper pour with ≥8 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) for rated power handling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low gate charge (7.3 nC typ) | Reduces switching losses by >35% vs. comparable 30 V MOSFETs with Qg > 11 nC, enabling higher frequency operation without efficiency penalty. |
| Thermal resistance <4.7°C/W (Junction-to-Case, Bottom) | Allows PCB to serve as primary heatsink - eliminates need for discrete heatsinks in 20–30 A POL applications. |
| 100% Rg tested | Guarantees gate timing consistency across batches, simplifying gate driver selection and eliminating need for external gate resistor tuning. |
| Industry-standard PQFN 3.3 × 3.3 mm pinout | Enables drop-in replacement with competing 30 V MOSFETs (e.g., Vishay SiR872DP, ON Semi NTMFS4C09N) without layout revision. |
| Low-profile package (<1.0 mm height) | Supports ultra-thin VRM designs (<3.5 mm total height) required for OCP-compliant server DIMMs and PCIe add-in cards. |
Applications
| Server Voltage Regulator Modules (VRMs) | Telecom Point-of-Load (POL) Converters |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vishay SiR872DP | RDS(on) = 7.0 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 10.2 nC; RθJC = 5.2°C/W | Higher gate charge increases driver loss; slightly higher thermal resistance limits max current at elevated ambient. | Preferred where board space allows larger gate driver ICs and thermal margin exists above 85°C ambient. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C09N | RDS(on) = 6.8 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 8.5 nC; RθJC = 4.9°C/W; AEC-Q101 qualified | Marginally higher Qg and thermal resistance; adds automotive qualification not required in industrial/server use. | Better suited for automotive ADAS applications requiring AEC-Q101; less optimal for high-frequency server VRMs due to 1.2 nC higher Qg. |
Compared with SiR872DP and NTMFS4C09N, IRFHM831TRPBF delivers the lowest combined Qg/RDS(on) ratio (1.10 nC/mΩ) and best thermal interface to PCB - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-frequency, high-current DC-DC stages where thermal headroom and switching loss are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The IRFHM831TRPBF supports 28 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value accounts for RDS(on) increase with temperature and thermal derating based on the 0.02 W/°C linear derating factor from 27 W at 25°C.
Is this MOSFET suitable for 4.5 V gate drive in logic-level applications?
Yes - the device has VGS(th) = 1.35–2.35 V and RDS(on) = 10.7–12.6 mΩ at VGS = 4.5 V and ID = 12 A, confirming robust enhancement at 4.5 V. It is widely used in 5 V logic-driven synchronous buck stages without gate boosting.
Does the PQFN 3.3 × 3.3 mm package require special PCB layout considerations?
Yes - the exposed drain pad must be connected to a minimum 200 mm² copper area with ≥8 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.8 mm pitch) to achieve the rated RθJC < 4.7°C/W. Footprint and stencil recommendations are detailed in Infineon Application Note AN-1136.
What is the avalanche energy rating for single-pulse unclamped inductive switching?
The device is rated for EAS = 50 mJ (thermally limited) at ID = 12 A and starting TJ = 25°C, per Figure 13. This supports robustness in hard-switched circuits with moderate inductive energy, but repeated avalanche operation is not recommended.
