Product details
Overview
IRFR13N15DPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 150 V, 14 A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252) package, optimized for high-frequency DC-DC converters and active-clamp forward topologies. It features 0.18 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 19 nC typical total gate charge, and 130 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - enabling robust switching in telecom 48 V input power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR13N15DPBF datasheet, IRFR13N15DPBF pinout, IRFR13N15DPBF application, or IRFR13N15DPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 150 V VBR(DSS), low 9.4 nC Miller charge, 1.75 °C/W RθJC, body diode trr of 110 ns, and lead-free D-Pak thermal performance in SMPS designs.
Technical Context
This HEXFET device uses planar vertical DMOS technology with fully characterized Coss (110 pF effective), Ciss (620 pF), and Crss (38 pF) to support accurate snubberless design in hard-switched topologies. Its gate threshold voltage (3.0–5.5 V) and 0.17 V/°C VBR(DSS) temperature coefficient ensure stable operation across -55°C to +175°C junction range.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.3 V forward drop at 8.3 A and 110 ns reverse recovery time under di/dt = 100 A/µs - critical for synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths in active-clamp forward converters where diode recovery stress must be minimized.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VBR(DSS) | 150 V - Withstands 48 V input-derived bus voltages with ≥3× safety margin in telecom SMPS |
| RDS(on) max | 0.18 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, TJ = 25°C - Limits conduction loss to ≤25 W at 14 A continuous drain current |
| Qg typ | 19 nC - Enables efficient gate drive with <1.9 W average gate power at 500 kHz and 10 V swing |
| EAS | 130 mJ - Sustains unclamped inductive switching events without failure in active-clamp circuits |
| trr | 110 ns - Reduces diode recovery-related voltage overshoot and EMI in high-dv/dt switching nodes |
| RθJC | 1.75 °C/W - Allows 86 W power dissipation with <150°C junction rise above 25°C case temperature |
| Coss,eff | 110 pF - Defines hard-switching energy loss (½ × Coss × V²) during turn-on transitions |
Pinout & Package
D-Pak (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal conduction and mechanical stability on PCB. Standard three-terminal configuration: Drain (tab and pin 2), Source (pin 1), Gate (pin 3).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal / body diode cathode | Primary return path for load current; ties to power ground plane with low-inductance layout |
| Pin 2 (Drain) | Drain terminal / body diode anode / thermal pad | High-side switching node; requires copper pour for heat sinking and EMI control |
| Pin 3 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOS gate requiring <11 Ω series resistance to damp ringing and limit dv/dt-induced turn-on |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 49% (9.4/19 nC) - Improves controllability during Miller plateau and reduces risk of shoot-through |
| Fully characterized Coss vs. VDS | 130 pF @ 25 V, 62 pF @ 120 V - Enables precise calculation of turn-on switching loss across full operating range |
| Avalanche-rated | 130 mJ EAS - Eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching applications |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant D-Pak with Pb-free terminations - Meets IPC-J-STD-020 reflow profile requirements |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-frequency power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP14NF15 | 150 V, 14 A, RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω, Qg = 22 nC, TO-220 package | Higher RDS(on) and gate charge; through-hole mounting limits high-frequency layout | Prefer when thermal mass outweighs switching speed; avoid in >300 kHz designs |
| IXTP14N15P | 150 V, 14 A, RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω, Qg = 24 nC, TO-220FP package | Slightly higher Qg; same voltage/current but inferior Coss characterization and no avalanche rating | Acceptable only if avalanche immunity is not required and layout allows larger footprint |
Compared with STP14NF15 and IXTP14N15P, IRFR13N15DPBF delivers lower switching loss via reduced Qgd and superior Coss data, plus verified avalanche capability - making it uniquely suited for compact, high-reliability telecom and industrial SMPS where thermal density and fault tolerance are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The IRFR13N15DPBF supports 9.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = 10 V, per the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D-Pak package and ensures safe operation within its 1.75 °C/W RθJC specification under sustained load conditions.
Does this MOSFET have avalanche capability, and is it rated for repetitive events?
Yes - the device is fully rated for single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) up to 130 mJ and repetitive avalanche energy (EAR) up to 8.6 mJ. These values are measured under standardized unclamped inductive test conditions (Fig. 12a–c) and confirm suitability for circuits with inductive switching stress, such as active-clamp forward converters.
Can the body diode be used for synchronous rectification in a forward converter?
The body diode has a 1.3 V forward voltage at 8.3 A and 110 ns reverse recovery time, making it usable for low-duty-cycle freewheeling. However, its Qrr of 520 nC and lack of soft-recovery characteristics limit efficiency in high-frequency synchronous rectification; external Schottky or SiC diodes are preferred for optimal performance.
Is the D-Pak package compatible with standard reflow soldering profiles?
Yes - the IRFR13N15DPBF is RoHS-compliant and lead-free, qualified for standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C for 10 seconds at 1.6 mm from case). Its D-Pak thermal pad requires adequate stencil design and solder paste volume to ensure void-free thermal interface and mechanical reliability.
