Product details
Overview
IRFIZ24EPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 55 V, 17 A N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-220 FullPAK package, with RDS(on) = 0.07 Ω at VGS = 10 V and 25 °C, 100% avalanche-rated, designed for DC-DC converters, motor drives, and power switching in industrial and automotive control modules.
For engineers reviewing the IRFIZ24EPBF datasheet, IRFIZ24EPBF pinout, IRFIZ24EPBF application, or IRFIZ24EPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 55 V VBR(DSS), 17 A continuous drain current, low gate charge (QG = 25 nC), fast switching capability (tf = 20 ns), and TO-220 FullPAK thermal performance under high-duty-cycle operation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET operates as a unidirectional power switch in high-side or low-side configurations, featuring a planar silicon process optimized for ruggedness and repetitive avalanche energy handling (EAS = 100 mJ). Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, enabling compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level drivers.
The device exhibits low output capacitance (Coss = 380 pF at VDS = 25 V) and moderate input capacitance (Ciss = 1200 pF), supporting efficient hard-switching up to 100 kHz in buck and half-bridge topologies with minimal switching loss.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR(DSS) | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche breakdown; sets upper limit for bus voltage in 48 V systems. |
| ID (continuous) | 17 A @ TC = 25 °C - Sustained current capability with heatsink; derates to ~9 A at TC = 100 °C. |
| RDS(on) | 0.07 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - On-resistance directly determines conduction loss (P = I²R) in high-current paths. |
| QG | 25 nC - Total gate charge defines driver strength requirement and switching transition time. |
| EAS | 100 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating enables robustness against inductive load turn-off transients. |
| tf | 20 ns - Fall time at ID = 10 A, VDD = 44 V - Critical for minimizing switching losses in high-frequency SMPS. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220 FullPAK package: insulated backside, improved thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.0 °C/W), lead-free, RoHS-compliant, with drain-connected tab for direct heatsink mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path output / heat sink interface | Electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from chassis unless system ground reference permits. |
| Source | Return path for drain current / reference node for gate drive | Serves as common return for load current and gate drive loop; critical for minimizing noise coupling in high-di/dt circuits. |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel conduction | High-impedance input requiring controlled slew rate; sensitive to ESD and ringing-requires gate resistor and local decoupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% Avalanche Tested | Guarantees reliable operation under inductive switching stress without external snubbers. |
| Low Gate Charge (QG) | Reduces driver power consumption and enables use of smaller, lower-cost gate drivers. |
| Enhanced Body Diode Recovery | Minimizes reverse recovery charge (Qrr) and associated shoot-through risk in synchronous rectification. |
| TO-220 FullPAK Insulated Tab | Eliminates need for insulating washers while maintaining mechanical robustness and thermal performance. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Drive |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Step-down regulation from 48 V battery to 12 V for vehicle infotainment power rail. IC Role / Device Role: High-side synchronous switch in fixed-frequency 200 kHz buck topology. Use Value: Low RDS(on) and fast tf reduce conduction and switching losses, improving efficiency by ≥1.8% over legacy 0.12 Ω parts. | Use Scenario: H-bridge actuator control for HVAC damper positioning in commercial HVAC units. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side switch controlling bidirectional current flow through 24 V brushed motor. Use Value: 100 mJ avalanche rating withstands flyback energy during rapid direction reversal without clamping diodes. |
| Industrial PLC Output Module | LED Constant-Current Driver |
Use Scenario: Solid-state relay replacement in 24 V digital output card driving solenoid valves. IC Role / Device Role: Load switch with integrated protection, driven by microcontroller GPIO. Use Value: TO-220 FullPAK insulation allows direct PCB mounting without isolation hardware, reducing BOM count and footprint. | Use Scenario: Dimmable streetlight driver delivering 1.5 A constant current to 36 V LED string. IC Role / Device Role: PWM-controlled high-side switch modulating current through sense resistor. Use Value: Tight VGS(th) distribution (2.0–4.0 V) ensures consistent turn-on across temperature and unit-to-unit variation. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFZ24N | Same die, but TO-220 non-insulated package; RDS(on) = 0.07 Ω, QG = 25 nC, no FullPAK insulation. | Requires insulating pad when mounted to grounded heatsink; higher assembly cost in isolated designs. | Select IRFZ24N only if mechanical isolation is handled externally and cost sensitivity outweighs assembly simplification. |
| STP16NF55 | 55 V, 16 A, RDS(on) = 0.085 Ω, QG = 28 nC, TO-220 package with standard tab. | Higher conduction loss and gate drive demand; not avalanche-rated per datasheet. | Prefer only where avalanche robustness is not required and thermal margin exceeds 15 °C. |
Compared with IRFZ24N and STP16NF55, IRFIZ24EPBF uniquely combines full electrical isolation, guaranteed avalanche capability, and identical switching performance-making it optimal for safety-critical or space-constrained industrial power stages where reliability and assembly simplicity are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature for continuous operation?
The absolute maximum junction temperature (TJ) is 175 °C. Continuous operation at this temperature requires strict thermal design: case temperature must be held ≤100 °C with appropriate heatsinking, given RthJC = 1.0 °C/W and typical RthCA > 10 °C/W in natural convection.
Is IRFIZ24EPBF compatible with 3.3 V microcontroller GPIOs?
Yes-its VGS(th) range (2.0–4.0 V) ensures turn-on with 3.3 V logic, but RDS(on) will be higher (~0.12 Ω) than at 10 V. For full performance, a dedicated gate driver or level shifter is recommended to ensure VGS ≥ 8 V during conduction.
Does the TO-220 FullPAK package require thermal compound?
Yes-despite the insulated tab, thermal interface material (TIM) is mandatory between the metal tab and heatsink to minimize thermal resistance. Use silicone-based or phase-change TIM rated for >150 °C; avoid electrically conductive pastes that could compromise isolation.
How does its body diode performance compare to Schottky alternatives?
The intrinsic body diode has VSD ≈ 1.2 V at 17 A and trr ≈ 60 ns-higher forward drop and slower recovery than Schottky diodes. It is not intended for freewheeling; external Schottky or synchronous rectification is required for high-efficiency topologies.
