Product details
Overview
IRFL024NTR from Infineon (formerly International Rectifier) is a 55V, 2.8A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in SOT-223 package, featuring 0.075Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10V, fully avalanche-rated operation, and fast switching (tr = 13.4ns, tf = 17.7ns). It serves as a high-efficiency low-side switch in DC-DC converters, LED drivers, and motor control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFL024NTR datasheet, IRFL024NTR pinout, IRFL024NTR application, or IRFL024NTR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 55V VDSS, 0.075Ω on-resistance, SOT-223 thermal performance (RθJA = 90°C/W on FR-4), 214mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and gate charge profile (Qg = 18.3nC).
Technical Context
This HEXFET® device uses fifth-generation silicon processing to minimize conduction loss per unit area while maintaining ruggedness against unclamped inductive switching. Its body diode exhibits 35–53ns reverse recovery time and 1.0V forward voltage at 1.68A, enabling synchronous rectification in buck topologies without external Schottky replacement.
The SOT-223 package integrates an enlarged copper tab for enhanced heatsinking-enabling 1.0W continuous power dissipation on standard FR-4 PCBs and 2.1W on 1-inch² copper pads. Gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0V) ensures compatibility with 3.3V and 5V logic-level drive.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 55V - supports 24V industrial bus and 48V telecom input rails with margin |
| RDS(on) | 0.075Ω @ VGS = 10V - delivers ≤220mW conduction loss at 2.8A DC |
| ID (TA = 25°C) | 2.8A - maximum continuous current under standard surface-mount conditions |
| EAS | 214mJ - withstands unclamped inductive energy in relay/motor snubber applications |
| Qg | 18.3nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.8mA avg. for 100kHz switching) |
| RθJA | 90°C/W - junction-to-ambient thermal resistance on minimum footprint FR-4 board |
| tr/tf | 13.4ns/17.7ns - enables >500kHz PWM operation with minimal switching loss |
Pinout & Package
SOT-223 package with exposed drain tab (Pin 2) for thermal conduction and mechanical anchoring. Standard 4-pin configuration: Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Drain (tab), Pin 3 = Source, Pin 4 = Source (dual-source configuration improves current sharing and reduces source inductance).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate terminal | Controls channel conduction; requires 10V drive for full RDS(on) specification |
| Pin 2 (D) | Drain terminal / thermal pad | Primary high-side connection point and main heat path to PCB copper |
| Pins 3 & 4 (S) | Source terminals | Dual-source layout lowers source loop inductance and improves EMI performance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully avalanche-rated | Withstands 214mJ single-pulse energy without failure-eliminates need for external clamping in inductive loads |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.075Ω enables <1% conduction loss in 2.8A, 12V load switching applications |
| Fast body diode | 35ns typical reverse recovery time supports synchronous rectification in buck converters |
| Lead-free SOT-223 | RoHS-compliant package with 1.0W power rating on standard FR-4-no thermal vias required for basic use cases |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN2004LK-7 | RDS(on) = 0.085Ω @ 4.5V; lower VGS(th) (1.0–2.5V); SOT-23 package | Better 3.3V logic compatibility but 0.3W max power dissipation limits current handling | Select when gate drive is limited to 3.3V and load current ≤1.5A |
| SI2302DS-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 0.095Ω @ 4.5V; 20V VDSS; SOT-23 package | Not rated for 24V+ systems; lacks avalanche rating and thermal robustness | Only suitable for low-voltage (<12V), low-energy consumer applications |
Compared with DMN2004LK-7 and SI2302DS-T1-GE3, IRFL024NTR provides superior thermal capability (1.0W vs. ≤0.3W), higher voltage margin (55V vs. 20–30V), and certified avalanche ruggedness-making it the only viable choice for industrial 24V motor and converter designs requiring reliability under transient stress.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFL024NTR at 70°C ambient?
The maximum continuous drain current is 2.3A at TA = 70°C with VGS = 10V, based on thermal derating from the 2.8A rating at 25°C using the 8.3mW/°C linear derating factor and 1.0W power dissipation limit on FR-4 PCB.
Can IRFL024NTR be driven directly from a 3.3V microcontroller GPIO?
No-its gate threshold voltage range is 2.0–4.0V, and full enhancement requires ≥10V for specified RDS(on). At 3.3V, RDS(on) exceeds 0.5Ω, causing excessive heating. A level-shifting gate driver or dedicated MOSFET driver IC is required for reliable operation.
Is the SOT-223 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes-IRFL024NTR is marked "PbF" (lead-free) per Infineon's packaging designation, and complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The SOT-223 footprint meets EIA-481 standards and supports vapor-phase, infrared, and wave soldering processes.
Does IRFL024NTR require a heatsink in typical applications?
Not for continuous 2.8A operation at 25°C ambient-its SOT-223 package achieves 1.0W dissipation on standard FR-4 with minimum footprint. However, above 1.5A or in elevated ambient (>50°C), thermal vias under the drain tab or localized copper pour are recommended to maintain TJ < 125°C.
