Product details
Overview
IRFR010PBF-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 50 V, 8.2 A N-channel power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package, featuring 0.20 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 10 nC total gate charge, and 2.0 V/ns peak diode recovery dV/dt - optimized for DC-DC converters, motor control, and low-heat-dissipation computing peripherals.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR010PBF-BE3 datasheet, IRFR010PBF-BE3 pinout, IRFR010PBF-BE3 application, or IRFR010PBF-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 5.0 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 25 W maximum power dissipation at TC = 25 °C, fast 11–17 ns turn-on delay, and compatibility with standard DPAK PCB footprints per Vishay document 71197.
Technical Context
This discrete N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET uses planar silicon technology with optimized geometry to achieve low on-resistance and high transconductance (3.1 S typ.). Its integral body diode supports unclamped inductive switching with 1.5 A avalanche current rating and 86 ns typical reverse recovery time at 7.3 A.
The device operates across -55 °C to +150 °C junction temperature range and is rated for ±20 V gate-source voltage. It delivers stable performance under pulsed drain currents up to 33 A and exhibits excellent temperature stability of RDS(on), with normalized resistance remaining ≤1.4× at 125 °C.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiHFR010-GE3 | Same die, halogen-free and Pb-free per JEDEC J-STD-020; identical RDS(on), Qg, and thermal specs | No functional difference; preferred for RoHS-compliant manufacturing | Select SiHFR010-GE3 when full halogen-free compliance is required per IEC 61249-2-21 |
| IRFR020PBF | Higher 100 V VDS, 0.33 Ω RDS(on), 14 nC Qg; larger die size increases RthJC to 6.0 °C/W | Supports higher bus voltages but sacrifices conduction efficiency and thermal performance at 50 V operation | Choose IRFR020PBF only if 100 V rating is mandatory; IRFR010PBF-BE3 offers superior efficiency below 60 V |
Compared with SiHFR010-GE3, IRFR010PBF-BE3 shares identical electrical and thermal behavior but differs in packaging specification (BE3 tape-and-reel vs. GE3); versus IRFR020PBF, it delivers 39% lower RDS(on) and 29% less gate charge at the cost of 50 V rating - making it optimal for compact, high-efficiency 12–48 V systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for IRFR010PBF-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFR010PBF-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 5.2 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package and must be applied when heatsinking is limited or ambient temperatures exceed 70 °C. The full 8.2 A rating applies only at TC = 25 °C with adequate thermal management.
Does IRFR010PBF-BE3 have a built-in body diode, and what are its key characteristics?
Yes, IRFR010PBF-BE3 integrates a monolithic body diode with 8.2 A continuous forward current capability, 1.6 V forward voltage at 8.2 A and 25 °C, and 86 ns typical reverse recovery time at 7.3 A. Its 2.0 V/ns peak dV/dt rating ensures robustness in inductive switching applications such as motor drives and synchronous rectifiers.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for IRFR010PBF-BE3, and how does it affect drive compatibility?
The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for IRFR010PBF-BE3 is 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25 °C. This places it in the standard-level MOSFET category - fully enhanced at 10 V gate drive, but not logic-level compatible with 3.3 V microcontrollers without level-shifting. For direct 3.3 V drive, consider Vishay's SiHF010N series instead.
Can IRFR010PBF-BE3 be used in parallel configurations, and what design considerations apply?
Yes, IRFR010PBF-BE3 is explicitly designed for paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on), which promotes natural current balancing. To ensure stability, use matched gate resistors (≤25 Ω), minimize layout asymmetry in source paths, and maintain uniform thermal coupling across devices - e.g., shared copper pour on the drain pad.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RthJA) for IRFR010PBF-BE3, and how should it be interpreted in PCB design?
The maximum RthJA for IRFR010PBF-BE3 is 110 °C/W, measured on a 1" square FR-4 PCB per JEDEC standards. This value assumes minimal copper area and no heatsink - actual performance improves significantly with extended drain-pad copper pours. For production designs, use RthJC = 5.0 °C/W and model heatsink or PCB thermal path separately for accurate junction temperature prediction.
