Product details
Overview
IRFR024NPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 55 V, 15 A, N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package with 0.075 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC conversion and motor drive switching in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR024NPBF datasheet, IRFR024NPBF pinout, IRFR024NPBF application, or IRFR024NPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low gate charge (Qg = 18 nC), fast turn-on/turn-off times (ton = 12 ns, toff = 25 ns), and avalanche-rated ruggedness for unclamped inductive switching.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology with optimized cell pitch and gate oxide thickness to achieve low on-resistance while maintaining robust short-circuit withstand capability. Its threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, enabling reliable gate drive compatibility with 3.3 V and 5 V logic-level controllers.
The device features a fully rated 100% UIS (Unclamped Inductive Switching) test per JEDEC JESD24-11, with EAS = 92 mJ at TJ = 25 °C, and operates over junction temperature range –55 °C to +175 °C for extended thermal reliability in harsh environments.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP16NF55 | RDS(on) = 0.085 Ω @ 10 V; Qg = 22 nC; TO-220 package | Higher thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.5 °C/W vs. 1.0 °C/W) limits continuous current in compact PCBs | Prefer when through-hole assembly or higher single-pulse surge current (>30 A) is required |
| DMN3025LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 0.035 Ω @ 4.5 V; SO-8 package; logic-level gate | Lower voltage rating (30 V) restricts use to ≤12 V systems; not suitable for 24 V bus applications | Prefer for space-constrained 5 V/12 V logic-driven loads where ultra-low RDS(on) outweighs voltage margin |
Compared with STP16NF55 and DMN3025LSD-13, IRFR024NPBF delivers optimal balance of 55 V rating, DPAK thermal performance, and 10 V gate drive compatibility-making it the preferred choice for industrial 24 V power stages requiring both efficiency and ruggedness.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate-source voltage for IRFR024NPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V per datasheet. Operation above +12 V provides minimal RDS(on) reduction but increases gate oxide stress risk. For reliable long-term operation, +10 V is the standard drive voltage, delivering full rated current with margin against transient overshoot.
Does IRFR024NPBF require a gate resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes-a 10–47 Ω series gate resistor is recommended to dampen parasitic oscillation and limit peak gate current. A 22 Ω resistor balances switching speed (ton/toff ~15–30 ns) with EMI suppression and driver IC protection, especially in high-di/dt half-bridge configurations.
Can IRFR024NPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with matched units and symmetrical PCB layout. Its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) enables inherent current sharing above 100 °C junction temperature. Layout must ensure identical gate and source loop inductances (<0.5 nH difference) to avoid dynamic imbalance.
Is IRFR024NPBF qualified for automotive applications per AEC-Q101?
No-IRFR024NPBF is not AEC-Q101 qualified. It meets industrial-grade reliability standards (JESD22-A108, JESD22-A110), but lacks the extended temperature cycling, humidity bias HAST, and failure analysis reporting required for automotive qualification. Use AUIRF1310S or similar AEC-Q101 parts for automotive designs.
