Product details
Overview
IRFIB7N50APBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 500 V, 6.6 A N-channel power MOSFET in TO-220 FULLPAK package, optimized for high-voltage switching in SMPS and UPS systems. It delivers RDS(on) = 0.52 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 52 nC, and features 2.5 kVRMS isolation rating with enhanced avalanche ruggedness.
For engineers reviewing the IRFIB7N50APBF datasheet, IRFIB7N50APBF pinout, IRFIB7N50APBF application, or IRFIB7N50APBF equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability, medium-power, high-voltage DC-DC conversion where low gate charge and robust dV/dt immunity are critical.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar high-voltage silicon technology with fully characterized avalanche performance (EAS = 275 mJ) and dynamic dV/dt ruggedness up to 6.9 V/ns. Its Coss eff. = 97 pF enables predictable hard-switching behavior in forward and bridge topologies.
The device integrates a fast body diode (trr = 510–770 ns, Qrr = 3.4–5.1 µC) and supports unclamped inductive switching at IAS = 11 A. Thermal resistance RthJC = 2.1 °C/W ensures efficient heat transfer to heatsinks in continuous 6.6 A operation at TC = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 500 V - Supports primary-side switching in 400 V DC bus applications without derating. |
| RDS(on) | 0.52 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <6.6 A continuous conduction with ≤3.4 W conduction loss at 25 °C case temperature. |
| Qg | 52 nC - Reduces gate driver power requirement and simplifies drive circuit design for 100–500 kHz SMPS. |
| EAS | 275 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy events common in PFC and forward converter turn-off. |
| tr/tf | 35 ns / 28 ns - Supports fast switching transitions while maintaining EMI control in hard-switched topologies. |
| TJ Range | −55 to +150 °C - Rated for industrial ambient environments and thermally demanding enclosed power enclosures. |
| ID (TC = 100 °C) | 4.2 A - Defines usable current limit under sustained high-temperature heatsink conditions. |
Pinout & Package
IRFIB7N50APBF is housed in a TO-220 FULLPAK package with exposed drain tab for thermal and electrical connection. The package provides 2.5 kVRMS isolation between drain and source/ground pins for reinforced insulation in offline AC-DC designs.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to high-voltage DC bus (up to 500 V); electrically and thermally tied to metal tab for heatsink mounting. |
| S (Source) | Power return / reference | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; body diode anode; must be routed with low-inductance path in high-dI/dt circuits. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qg (52 nC) | Reduces gate driver IC stress and enables use of cost-effective 1-A peak drivers in 300–500 kHz converters. |
| Enhanced dV/dt ruggedness (6.9 V/ns) | Prevents false turn-on during high-slew-rate commutation in half-bridge configurations without snubbers. |
| Characterized Coss eff. (97 pF) | Enables accurate dead-time calculation and ZVS transition modeling in resonant LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge designs. |
| Fast body diode (trr = 510–770 ns) | Minimizes reverse recovery loss and voltage overshoot during synchronous rectification or freewheeling in boost/PFC stages. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP5NK50ZFP | RDS(on) = 0.95 Ω @ 10 V; lower Qg = 27 nC; Zener-protected gate; TO-220FP package. | Better gate protection but higher on-resistance limits max current to 4.5 A continuous; suited for lower-power PFC. | Choose STP5NK50ZFP when gate robustness against overvoltage transients outweighs conduction loss priority. |
| IXTH7N50L | RDS(on) = 0.65 Ω @ 10 V; higher EAS = 420 mJ; TO-247 package; no isolation rating specified. | Superior avalanche margin but lacks certified 2.5 kVRMS isolation; requires external isolation barriers in medical/UPS designs. | Choose IXTH7N50L only when maximum ruggedness is required and isolation is handled at board/system level. |
Compared with STP5NK50ZFP and IXTH7N50L, IRFIB7N50APBF uniquely balances low RDS(on), certified high-voltage isolation, and industry-standard TO-220 FULLPAK thermal performance-making it optimal for space-constrained, safety-critical 500 V SMPS where both efficiency and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFIB7N50APBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFIB7N50APBF supports 4.2 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as defined by its linear derating factor of 0.48 W/°C and maximum power dissipation of 60 W at TC = 25 °C. This rating ensures safe operation in thermally constrained enclosures without active cooling.
Does IRFIB7N50APBF have a built-in body diode, and what are its key recovery parameters?
Yes, IRFIB7N50APBF includes an integral body diode rated for 6.6 A continuous and 44 A pulsed conduction. Its reverse recovery time trr is 510–770 ns and Qrr is 3.4–5.1 µC at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 11 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/µs-critical for minimizing loss in PFC and freewheeling paths.
What isolation voltage rating does IRFIB7N50APBF meet, and under what test conditions?
The IRFIB7N50APBF meets 2.5 kVRMS high-voltage isolation between drain and source/substrate terminals, verified per IEC 60950-1 at 60 Hz for 60 seconds. This rating applies to the TO-220 FULLPAK package construction and supports reinforced insulation in Class I AC-DC power supplies.
Is IRFIB7N50APBF suitable for use in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes, IRFIB7N50APBF is suitable for ZVS applications due to its well-characterized Coss eff. = 97 pF and low Qgd/Qgs ratio (18/13), enabling predictable resonant timing. Its 500 V VDS rating and 275 mJ EAS provide margin for transient voltage spikes during soft-switching transitions.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for IRFIB7N50APBF, and how does it affect drive compatibility?
The gate threshold voltage VGS(th) for IRFIB7N50APBF is 2.0–4.0 V at ID = 250 µA, confirming compatibility with standard 10 V gate drivers. This range ensures full enhancement at VGS = 10 V while avoiding unintended turn-on from noise or leakage in high-noise power environments.
