Product details
Overview
IRFR014PBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 60 V, 7.7 A N-channel surface-mount power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 0.20 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 11 nC total gate charge, and 27.4 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - used in DC-DC converters, motor drivers, and load switches where fast switching and ruggedness are required.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR014PBF datasheet, IRFR014PBF pinout, IRFR014PBF application, or IRFR014PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its 60 V VDS, 0.20 Ω on-resistance at 10 V drive, DPAK thermal performance (RthJC = 5.0 °C/W), body diode recovery time (70–140 ns), and Pb-free/halogen-free compliance per Vishay S21-0466-Rev. F.
Technical Context
This third-generation TrenchFET® MOSFET uses optimized silicon design for low conduction loss and fast switching with controlled dV/dt (4.5 V/ns peak diode recovery). Its dynamic parameters - Qg = 11 nC, Qgd = 5.8 nC, Ciss = 300 pF - support efficient gate driving in high-frequency SMPS topologies.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode rated for 7.7 A continuous source-drain current and 31 A pulsed current, with reverse recovery charge Qrr of 0.20–0.40 μC - enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and freewheeling applications without external diode supplementation.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLR014PBF | Same 60 V/7.7 A rating but in smaller DPAK variant with lower RDS(on) (0.16 Ω) and reduced Qg (9.5 nC); identical pinout | Better efficiency at light-to-moderate loads; slightly lower thermal margin due to reduced copper area | Select IRFR014PBF when higher avalanche robustness (27.4 mJ vs. 22 mJ) and proven field reliability in industrial motor drives are prioritized |
| SiHFR014-GE3 | Identical electrical specs and DPAK package; Vishay's newer halogen-free version with same RDS(on), Qg, and EAS | No functional difference; qualified for RoHS-compliant and halogen-free manufacturing lines | Choose SiHFR014-GE3 for new designs requiring full halogen-free compliance; IRFR014PBF remains valid for legacy production and mixed-material BOMs |
Compared with IRFR014PBF, IRLR014PBF offers marginally better conduction efficiency but less avalanche margin, while SiHFR014-GE3 delivers identical performance with updated environmental compliance - making IRFR014PBF the optimal choice for cost-sensitive, thermally demanding, or long-lifecycle industrial applications where legacy qualification is required.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFR014PBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFR014PBF supports 4.9 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature limit. The IRFR014PBF maintains stable RDS(on) performance across this range due to its positive temperature coefficient.
Does IRFR014PBF require a gate driver IC, or can it be driven directly from a microcontroller?
The IRFR014PBF has a gate threshold voltage of 2.0–4.0 V and is fully enhanced at VGS = 10 V, making it compatible with direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller GPIO pins when paired with appropriate series gate resistance (typically 10–22 Ω) to control slew rate. However, for high-frequency (>200 kHz) or high-current (>5 A) applications, a dedicated gate driver improves switching speed and reduces losses. The IRFR014PBF's 11 nC Qg makes it responsive to both approaches.
What is the avalanche capability of IRFR014PBF, and how is it tested?
The IRFR014PBF is rated for 27.4 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) under test conditions of VDD = 25 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 924 μH, and Rg = 25 Ω. This rating is verified per JEDEC-standard unclamped inductive switching (UIS) tests and confirms the device's ability to absorb inductive energy safely during fault conditions such as short circuits or transformer saturation. The IRFR014PBF's ruggedized silicon design ensures repeatable performance across its full temperature range.
Is IRFR014PBF pin-compatible with other DPAK N-channel MOSFETs like IRLR014PBF?
Yes, the IRFR014PBF is pin-compatible with IRLR014PBF and other standard DPAK (TO-252) 3-lead N-channel MOSFETs - all share identical G-D-S terminal arrangement and mechanical footprint per JEDEC outline. Layouts designed for IRLR014PBF can accommodate IRFR014PBF without modification, though thermal and electrical performance differences (e.g., RDS(on), Qg, EAS) must be validated in the final system. The IRFR014PBF's DPAK package dimensions conform to Vishay document 71197.
What is the body diode forward voltage of IRFR014PBF, and how does it affect freewheeling performance?
The IRFR014PBF body diode exhibits a typical forward voltage (VSD) of 1.6 V at TJ = 25 °C and IS = 7.7 A with VGS = 0 V. Its reverse recovery time (trr) is 70–140 ns, and reverse recovery charge (Qrr) is 0.20–0.40 μC. These values enable efficient freewheeling in non-synchronous buck converters and H-bridge motor drives, though synchronous rectification using a second MOSFET is recommended for highest efficiency. The IRFR014PBF's diode characteristics are fully characterized in the Vishay S21-0466 datasheet.
