Product details
Overview
IRFR13N20DPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 200 V, 13 A N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, with RDS(on) = 0.22 Ω at VGS = 10 V and Qg = 24 nC, designed for high-efficiency switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), DC-DC converters, and motor control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR13N20DPBF datasheet, IRFR13N20DPBF pinout, IRFR13N20DPBF application, or IRFR13N20DPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include breakdown voltage margin, gate charge for PWM switching loss, thermal resistance in surface-mount layout, and lead-free compliance for RoHS-constrained production.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar stripe silicon technology with optimized cell pitch to balance conduction and switching losses. Its 200 V VDSS rating supports 170 V DC bus operation with 15% safety margin, and the 13 A ID rating is specified at TC = 100 °C with pulse testing per JEDEC JESD24-1.
The device features a built-in fast-recovery body diode (trr = 55 ns, Qrr = 38 nC), enabling synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and flyback topologies without external diode addition.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 200 V - supports 170 V nominal DC input with 15% margin for surge and ripple |
| ID @ TC=100°C | 13 A - continuous drain current rating under heatsink-limited thermal conditions |
| RDS(on) @ VGS=10 V | 0.22 Ω - determines conduction loss of 39 W at 13 A (I²R), critical for thermal design |
| Qg | 24 nC - defines gate drive energy requirement and switching speed in 100–500 kHz SMPS |
| trr / Qrr | 55 ns / 38 nC - enables zero-voltage switching (ZVS) assist and reduces diode recovery loss |
| RθJC | 2.5 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance used to calculate heatsink size for 100 °C case temp |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction to PCB copper. Standard 3-pin configuration: Gate (G), Drain (D), Source (S).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate terminal | Controls channel conduction; requires ≥10 V drive for full enhancement and low RDS(on) |
| D | Drain terminal | High-side switching node; electrically connected to exposed metal pad for thermal and electrical path |
| S | Source terminal | Reference node for gate drive; ties to power ground or low-side switch source in half-bridge |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Lead-free and RoHS-compliant | Meets IPC-J-STD-609A Class 1 definition; "P" suffix confirms Pb-free plating and assembly |
| Fast body diode | 55 ns reverse recovery time enables use in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) flyback without snubber |
| Low gate charge | 24 nC Qg reduces driver IC power dissipation and allows smaller gate resistors for faster turn-on |
| Enhancement-mode operation | Zero conduction at VGS = 0 V ensures fail-safe off-state during power-up or controller fault |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter | Industrial DC-DC Converter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 65 W universal-input offline adapter with active clamp flyback topology. IC Role / Device Role: Primary-side high-side switch handling 200 V DC link and 13 A peak current. Use Value: 0.22 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.5 W at full load, improving efficiency to >88%. | Use Scenario: 48 V to 12 V isolated DC-DC module for PLC I/O power rails. IC Role / Device Role: Secondary-side synchronous rectifier in forward converter with 200 kHz switching. Use Value: Fast body diode (55 ns trr) eliminates need for external Schottky, reducing BOM count and footprint. |
| Motor Drive Half-Bridge | LED Driver Power Stage |
Use Scenario: 24 V brushed DC motor controller with H-bridge using discrete MOSFETs. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side switch in half-bridge leg, switching at 20 kHz PWM with 13 A stall current. Use Value: 24 nC Qg enables clean 100 ns rise/fall times using TC4427 driver, minimizing shoot-through risk. | Use Scenario: Constant-current LED driver for architectural lighting with 36 V string voltage. IC Role / Device Role: High-side switch in buck regulator controlling 1.5 A LED current. Use Value: 200 V VDSS accommodates 36 V string + 100 V transient spikes without clamping circuit. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP14NF20 | VDSS = 200 V, RDS(on) = 0.25 Ω, Qg = 28 nC - higher conduction and switching loss | Same SMPS use but requires larger heatsink and slower PWM edge rates | Prefer when STMicroelectronics supply chain alignment is required and 0.03 Ω RDS(on) penalty is acceptable |
| IXTP13N20P | VDSS = 200 V, RDS(on) = 0.24 Ω, Qg = 22 nC - slightly lower gate charge but higher on-resistance | Better suited for high-frequency resonant converters where Qg dominates loss | Select when operating >300 kHz and gate drive capability is constrained |
Compared with STP14NF20 and IXTP13N20P, IRFR13N20DPBF delivers the lowest combined conduction-switching loss at 100–200 kHz, making it optimal for thermally constrained SMPS designs requiring minimal heatsinking.

FAQ
What is the maximum pulsed drain current (IDM) for IRFR13N20DPBF?
The absolute maximum pulsed drain current is 52 A, tested per JEDEC JESD24-1 with pulse width ≤300 µs and duty cycle ≤2%. This rating applies only under strict thermal boundary conditions-actual design limit depends on PCB copper area, ambient temperature, and switching frequency.
Does IRFR13N20DPBF require a gate resistor for EMI suppression?
Yes-a 10–22 Ω gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing caused by parasitic inductance in the gate loop. The 24 nC gate charge and low output capacitance (Coss = 320 pF) make it susceptible to oscillation above 10 MHz without proper gate damping.
Can IRFR13N20DPBF be used in linear (analog) regulation mode?
No-it is not characterized or rated for linear operation. Sustained operation in the ohmic region causes localized hot-spot formation due to uneven current distribution across the die, leading to premature failure even below ID limits.
Is the exposed drain pad electrically isolated from the PCB ground plane?
No-the exposed drain pad is internally connected to the drain terminal and must be routed to the high-voltage DC node. It must not contact any grounded copper pour; thermal vias to inner-layer ground planes require isolation slots or clearance gaps per IPC-2221B.
