Product details
Overview
IRFR014PBF-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 60 V, 7.7 A N-channel surface-mount power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package with RDS(on) = 0.20 Ω at VGS = 10 V, Qg = 11 nC, and fast switching capability. It serves as a high-efficiency low-side switch in DC-DC converters, motor drivers, and load management circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR014PBF-BE3 datasheet, IRFR014PBF-BE3 pinout, IRFR014PBF-BE3 application, or IRFR014PBF-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V VDS, 0.20 Ω on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, 11 nC total gate charge, avalanche energy rating of 27.4 mJ, and DPAK thermal performance with RthJC = 5.0 °C/W.
Technical Context
This third-generation TrenchFET® MOSFET uses silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in compact surface-mount applications. Its dynamic dV/dt rating of 4.5 V/ns and unclamped inductive switching capability support robust operation in hard-switched topologies.
The device features an integrated body diode with trr = 70–140 ns and Qrr = 0.20–0.40 μC, enabling moderate-frequency synchronous rectification or freewheeling in buck converters and H-bridge motor drives without external diode supplementation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFR014PBF-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for IRFR014PBF-BE3 is 4.9 A when the case temperature (TC) is 100 °C. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package under sustained power dissipation; at 25 °C case temperature, the rating increases to 7.7 A. The linear derating factor is 0.20 W/°C above 25 °C, and IRFR014PBF-BE3 must be mounted on adequate copper area to maintain safe junction temperatures.
Does IRFR014PBF-BE3 support logic-level gate drive?
IRFR014PBF-BE3 has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of 2.0–4.0 V, making it partially compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level drive, but full enhancement requires VGS ≥ 10 V to achieve rated RDS(on) = 0.20 Ω. At VGS = 4.5 V, RDS(on) rises significantly-typically >0.5 Ω-so IRFR014PBF-BE3 is best driven with a dedicated 10 V gate driver for optimal efficiency.
What is the avalanche energy rating of IRFR014PBF-BE3 and how is it tested?
IRFR014PBF-BE3 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, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 7.7 A. This rating confirms ruggedness against inductive turn-off transients in relay drivers, solenoid controls, and motor phase switching where IRFR014PBF-BE3 may experience unclamped inductive kickback.
Can IRFR014PBF-BE3 be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, IRFR014PBF-BE3 is designed for ease of paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on), which promotes natural current sharing as temperature rises. To ensure balanced operation, use matched gate resistors, symmetrical PCB layout with equal trace lengths, and common-source routing. IRFR014PBF-BE3 does not require active current balancing in most medium-power applications up to 20 A total load.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for IRFR014PBF-BE3?
The maximum junction-to-case (drain) thermal resistance (RthJC) for IRFR014PBF-BE3 is 5.0 °C/W. This value assumes proper soldering of the exposed drain pad to a minimum 1" × 1" copper area on FR-4 PCB. With this mounting, IRFR014PBF-BE3 can dissipate up to 25 W continuously at TC = 25 °C, though practical limits are governed by board-level thermal design and ambient conditions.
