Product details
Overview
IRFPS29N60LPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 29 A N-channel superjunction power MOSFET in SUPER-247™ package, featuring 0.175 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 220 nC total gate charge, and optimized body diode for zero-voltage switching (ZVS) in high-efficiency telecom and server SMPS.
For engineers reviewing the IRFPS29N60LPBF datasheet, IRFPS29N60LPBF pinout, IRFPS29N60LPBF application, or IRFPS29N60LPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (570 mJ EAS), dV/dt immunity (15 V/ns), gate threshold voltage (3.0–5.0 V), and thermal resistance (0.26 °C/W RthJC) for high-power hard-switching and resonant topologies.
Technical Context
This device employs superjunction architecture to achieve high voltage blocking with low on-resistance, enabling efficient operation in continuous conduction mode (CCM) and transition-mode (TM) PFC stages. Its enhanced dV/dt capability and fast, soft-recovery body diode support reliable ZVS in phase-shifted full-bridge and LLC resonant converters.
The MOSFET features a 3.0–5.0 V gate threshold voltage for improved noise immunity in noisy industrial environments, and its 220 nC gate charge enables drive with standard gate drivers while maintaining switching losses below 1.2 W at 100 kHz in 480 V bus applications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V AC input rectified to 560 V DC bus with 10 % margin for transient overvoltage |
| RDS(on) | 0.175 Ω max at VGS = 10 V - delivers ≤14.5 W conduction loss at 29 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 220 nC max - determines gate driver peak current requirement (~2.2 A for 100 ns rise time) |
| EAS | 570 mJ - withstands unclamped inductive energy during hard commutation without failure |
| RthJC | 0.26 °C/W - enables 480 W power dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above 25 °C case temperature |
| dV/dt | 15 V/ns - prevents spurious turn-on during high-speed switching in high-di/dt circuits |
| VGS(th) | 3.0–5.0 V - ensures stable turn-on under EMI and supply ripple in industrial control environments |
Pinout & Package
The IRFPS29N60LPBF is housed in the SUPER-247™ package - a through-hole, isolated-tab variant of TO-247 with enhanced thermal performance and creepage/clearance for 600 V systems. The tab is electrically connected to the drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate | Control electrode; requires ≥10 V drive for full enhancement; 0.86 Ω internal gate resistance limits ringing |
| D | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; connected to heat sink via isolated tab; carries full load current and avalanche energy |
| S | Source | Power return path and gate reference; low-inductance layout critical for switching stability and dV/dt immunity |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Super-fast body diode | trr = 130 ns (TJ = 25 °C), Qrr = 630 µC - eliminates external anti-parallel diode in ZVS flyback and LLC half-bridge |
| High gate threshold voltage | VGS(th) = 3.0–5.0 V - reduces false triggering from noise coupling in high-density power modules |
| Low effective output capacitance | Coss eff. = 250 pF - minimizes dead-time losses and improves light-load efficiency in resonant converters |
| Enhanced avalanche ruggedness | EAS = 570 mJ - supports robust operation in unclamped inductive switching without derating |
| RoHS-compliant lead-free termination | Pb-free plating per JEDEC J-STD-609 - meets global environmental compliance without sacrificing solderability or thermal cycling reliability |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW62N60M2 | RDS(on) = 0.15 Ω (lower), Qg = 170 nC (lower), but EAS = 420 mJ (lower); TO-247 package | Better efficiency at light loads due to lower Qg, but reduced avalanche margin in unclamped inductive faults | Prefer when gate drive capability is limited and system-level fault protection is robust |
| IXFH32N60P | RDS(on) = 0.18 Ω (slightly higher), Qg = 240 nC (higher), EAS = 620 mJ (higher); TO-247 package | Higher avalanche energy supports harsher industrial transients, but requires stronger gate driver | Prefer when system must survive repeated unclamped inductive switching without snubbers |
Compared with STW62N60M2 and IXFH32N60P, the IRFPS29N60LPBF offers balanced trade-offs: mid-range RDS(on) and Qg, industry-leading dV/dt immunity (15 V/ns), and verified ZVS diode performance-making it optimal for telecom/server SMPS where reliability and soft switching coexist.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the IRFPS29N60LPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFPS29N60LPBF has a maximum continuous drain current of 18 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations at elevated temperatures and ensures safe operation within the SOA boundary defined in Figure 9 of the datasheet. Designers must verify heatsink design to maintain TC ≤ 100 °C under full-load conditions to sustain this current level in the IRFPS29N60LPBF.
Does the IRFPS29N60LPBF have a fully rated avalanche capability, and what is its single-pulse energy limit?
Yes, the IRFPS29N60LPBF is fully rated for repetitive and single-pulse avalanche operation. Its single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) is 570 mJ under test conditions of L = 1.5 mH, IAS = 29 A, and starting TJ = 25 °C. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and validated in Figure 14a, making the IRFPS29N60LPBF suitable for designs where unclamped inductive switching may occur.
What is the typical reverse recovery time (trr) of the body diode in the IRFPS29N60LPBF, and how does it vary with temperature?
The body diode reverse recovery time (trr) of the IRFPS29N60LPBF is 130 ns at TJ = 25 °C and increases to 240 ns at TJ = 125 °C, as specified in the Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics table. This temperature-dependent behavior is critical for ZVS timing margin calculations in resonant converters, and the IRFPS29N60LPBF's soft recovery profile minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI generation during commutation.
Can the IRFPS29N60LPBF be used as a direct replacement for the IRFP29N60KPBF in existing designs?
No-the IRFPS29N60LPBF is not a direct replacement for the IRFP29N60KPBF. While both are 600 V, 29 A N-channel MOSFETs, the IRFPS29N60LPBF features a superjunction structure with lower RDS(on) (0.175 Ω vs. 0.21 Ω), higher Qg (220 nC vs. ~160 nC), and optimized body diode for ZVS. Layout and gate drive adjustments may be required, and the IRFPS29N60LPBF should be validated for each specific application before substitution.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for the IRFPS29N60LPBF, and how is it measured?
The maximum junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) of the IRFPS29N60LPBF is 0.26 °C/W, measured from the die junction to the drain tab surface under steady-state conditions, as stated in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table. This value is derived from standardized test methods per JEDEC JESD51-14 and assumes proper mounting with thermal grease on a flat, greased heatsink surface-critical for accurate thermal modeling of the IRFPS29N60LPBF in high-power applications.
