Product details
Overview
IRFI9530N from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a P-channel enhancement-mode silicon power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for -100 V VDS, 12 A ID (TC = 25°C), and 0.3 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V. It operates as a high-side switch in DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFI9530N datasheet, IRFI9530N pinout, IRFI9530N application, or IRFI9530N equivalent, key selection criteria include verified P-channel conduction capability, thermal performance under pulsed load conditions, gate charge (Qg = 60 nC), safe operating area (SOA) limits, and compatibility with standard ±10 V gate drive circuits.
Technical Context
This device uses planar vertical DMOS technology with optimized cell pitch and field oxide termination to achieve stable avalanche-rated operation and low gate-to-drain charge (Qgd = 24 nC). Its body diode exhibits trr = 200 ns and Qrr = 1.2 µC at IF = 6 A, enabling moderate-frequency synchronous rectification.
The MOSFET features a fully isolated mounting tab (TO-220AB), supports continuous drain current up to 12 A at TC = 25°C, and maintains RDS(on) ≤ 0.4 Ω across -55°C to +175°C junction temperature range per JEDEC JESD22-A108.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | –100 V: Maximum reverse-biased drain-source voltage before avalanche breakdown. |
| RDS(on) | 0.3 Ω @ VGS = –10 V: On-resistance determines conduction loss in high-side switching applications. |
| ID (continuous) | 12 A @ TC = 25°C: Continuous drain current rating under heatsink-cooled conditions. |
| Qg | 60 nC: Total gate charge required to fully turn on; impacts switching speed and driver sizing. |
| trr | 200 ns: Body diode reverse recovery time; critical for hard-switched topologies with freewheeling paths. |
| PD | 100 W @ TC = 25°C: Maximum power dissipation achievable with adequate heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
IRFI9530N is housed in a TO-220AB package with electrically isolated tab. The case is connected to source potential, enabling direct heatsink mounting without insulation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current-carrying terminal | Mounted to heatsink; must be electrically isolated from chassis unless referenced to source. |
| Gate | Control input | Receives negative voltage relative to source to turn on; threshold VGS(th) = –2.0 to –4.0 V. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return | Connected to system ground or high-side rail reference; defines VGS polarity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees ruggedness in inductive switching events without external snubbers. |
| Fast body diode | 200 ns trr enables use in non-synchronous buck or flyback topologies without added Schottky. |
| Isolated mounting tab | Allows direct mechanical attachment to grounded heatsinks without thermal interface isolation. |
| JEDEC qualified | Meets JESD22-A108 reliability standards for temperature cycling and humidity exposure. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Control | DC-DC Converter High-Side Switch |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional brushed DC motor drive using half-bridge configuration with P-channel high-side and N-channel low-side switches. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side P-channel MOSFET providing controlled current path during forward rotation phase. Use Value: Eliminates need for high-side gate driver IC due to negative VGS compatibility with common-ground logic controllers. | Use Scenario: Non-isolated buck converter supplying 24 V output from 48 V bus in factory automation PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier replacement for high-side switch in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). Use Value: Enables simple gate drive with optocoupler-isolated PWM signal referenced to source, reducing component count vs. bootstrap solutions. |
| Power Supply OR-ing | Overvoltage Protection Circuit |
Use Scenario: Redundant 12 V power inputs in telecom shelf systems where two supplies feed a common bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Reverse-polarity blocking element preventing backfeed between sources during fault or hot-swap events. Use Value: Low RDS(on) minimizes insertion loss (< 360 mW at 12 A), preserving efficiency while supporting automatic failover. | Use Scenario: Crowbar-style overvoltage protection for sensitive analog front-end circuitry in test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-acting shunt switch triggered by comparator when input exceeds 15 V threshold. Use Value: Avalanche-rated SOA allows single-pulse clamping of >100 V transients without destruction, extending system uptime. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP9NK90ZFP | 900 V VDS, 9 A ID, RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω - higher voltage rating but lower current and higher on-resistance. | Suitable for universal-input offline SMPS where 900 V rating is mandatory; not optimal for 100 V bus systems. | Select only if primary requirement is extended voltage margin over conduction efficiency. |
| IXTP12P10P | 100 V VDS, 12 A ID, RDS(on) = 0.28 Ω, Qg = 52 nC - slightly lower RDS(on) and gate charge. | Offers marginally improved switching and conduction loss in high-frequency (>100 kHz) DC-DC designs. | Prefer for new designs targeting < 150 kHz operation with minimal gate drive power. |
Compared with IRFI9530N, STP9NK90ZFP trades conduction efficiency for ultra-high voltage robustness, while IXTP12P10P delivers modest improvements in both RDS(on) and Qg within identical voltage/current class-making it a drop-in upgrade for thermally constrained layouts.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for IRFI9530N?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is +175°C per the official Infineon datasheet. Operation above this limit risks permanent parametric shift or catastrophic failure. Derating curves show that continuous ID drops to 7.2 A at TC = 100°C, requiring thermal design that maintains case temperature below 85°C for full-rated current.
Can IRFI9530N be used in linear (analog) mode?
Yes, but with strict SOA compliance. The device supports linear operation up to 100 V × 12 A = 1200 W only for < 10 ms pulses. For sustained analog use, power must be limited to ≤ 10 W with active cooling, as its Safe Operating Area restricts simultaneous VDS and ID beyond 10 V/10 A in DC mode.
Does IRFI9530N require a gate resistor?
Yes-a series gate resistor (typically 10–47 Ω) is required to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and prevent spurious turn-on from dv/dt coupling. Without it, parasitic oscillation can exceed VGS(th) during fast drain transitions, leading to shoot-through in bridge configurations.
Is the TO-220AB tab electrically isolated from all pins?
Yes-the TO-220AB package provides full electrical isolation between the drain-connected metal tab and the Gate and Source leads. This allows direct mounting to a grounded heatsink without shorting the drain to system ground, unlike standard TO-220 variants where the tab is internally connected to drain and not isolated.
