Product details
Overview
IRFR220NPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 200V, 5.0A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET Power MOSFET in D-Pak package, optimized for high-frequency DC-DC converters and forward topologies with 600 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10V, 15 nC total gate charge, and 46 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - deployed in 48V telecom power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR220NPBF datasheet, IRFR220NPBF pinout, IRFR220NPBF application, or IRFR220NPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its low Qgd/Qg ratio for reduced switching loss, fully characterized Coss,eff = 46 pF for resonant design, and validated avalanche ruggedness under unclamped inductive switching.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar vertical DMOS structure with integrated body diode, supporting hard-switched and resonant SMPS topologies. Its gate threshold voltage (2.0–4.0 V) enables direct drive from 3.3V/5V controllers when biased above VGS(th), while RDS(on) drift of +0.23 V/°C ensures predictable conduction loss across –55°C to +175°C junction range.
Dynamic parameters are fully characterized: Ciss = 300 pF, Coss = 53 pF (VDS = 25V), and Crss = 15 pF at 1 MHz; reverse recovery time (trr) = 90–140 ns with Qrr = 320–480 nC confirms suitability for synchronous rectification and freewheeling roles where diode speed impacts efficiency.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 200 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; supports 48V input forward converters with ≥4× safety margin. |
| RDS(on) max | 600 mΩ @ VGS = 10V, ID = 2.9A - Defines worst-case conduction loss (Pcond ≈ I² × 0.6 Ω) at rated current. |
| Qg typ | 15 nC - Total gate charge determines driver strength requirement; enables <100 ns turn-on with 150 mA gate current. |
| EAS | 46 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating validates robustness during overvoltage transients in unclamped inductive loads. |
| Coss,eff | 46 pF - Effective output capacitance measured from 0–160V; used directly in LLC/ZVS dead-time and resonant frequency calculations. |
| trr | 90–140 ns - Body diode reverse recovery time; critical for minimizing shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations. |
Pinout & Package
D-Pak (TO-252AA) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal relief; 3-terminal configuration: Gate (G), Drain (D), Source (S).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Control electrode | Receives gate drive signal; requires ≤±20 V absolute rating; Miller capacitance (Qgd = 6.1–9.2 nC) dominates switching transitions. |
| D | High-side current path | Connected to drain node (e.g., transformer primary or bus rail); electrically tied to exposed copper pad for thermal conduction to PCB. |
| S | Reference and return path | Source terminal forms common reference for gate drive and current sensing; body diode anode is internally connected here. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | ≈41% (6.1/15 nC) - Reduces Miller-induced switching delay and improves controllability in high-dV/dt environments. |
| Fully characterized Coss vs. VDS | Coss = 23 pF @ 160V - Enables accurate soft-switching timing prediction without iterative measurement. |
| Avalanche-rated operation | IAR = 2.9 A, EAR = 4.3 mJ - Supports repetitive inductive turn-off stress in flyback and active clamp circuits. |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant, Pb-free terminations - Meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for standard SMT reflow. |
Applications
| Telecom 48V Forward Converter | Industrial DC-DC Brick |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in isolated 48V-to-12V forward converter operating at 200–500 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switching element controlling transformer primary current; duty cycle modulated by PWM controller. Use Value: Low Qg and Coss,eff minimize switching loss at high frequency; 200V rating accommodates reflected voltage spikes up to 180V. | Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectifier in 24V-input industrial DC-DC module with tight thermal constraints. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side freewheeling switch replacing Schottky diode; driven complementary to primary switch. Use Value: Fast trr and low VSD (1.3 V) reduce conduction and recovery losses; D-Pak package enables 3.5°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance. |
| UPS Hold-up Circuit | LED Driver Flyback |
Use Scenario: Output OR-ing switch in redundant 48V UPS system maintaining load continuity during battery switchover. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Ideal diode replacement with controlled turn-on/turn-off; operated in linear region during transition. Use Value: Avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 46 mJ) withstands inductive kickback from hold-up capacitors; RDS(on) ensures <0.3 W dissipation at 5 A. | Use Scenario: Primary switch in isolated 120VAC-fed LED driver flyback supplying constant current to high-brightness LEDs. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main energy transfer switch; subjected to 600V+ drain spikes due to leakage inductance. Use Value: 200V VDSS provides margin against 1.5× reflected spike; validated avalanche performance prevents failure during no-load or short-circuit events. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP20NM20 | 200V, 20A, RDS(on) = 100 mΩ, Qg = 25 nC - higher current, lower RDS(on), but larger gate charge. | Better for higher-current, lower-frequency designs (>10 A, <100 kHz); less suitable for high-frequency optimization. | Select when conduction loss dominates and board space allows TO-220 mounting. |
| IXTP20N20P | 200V, 20A, RDS(on) = 120 mΩ, Qg = 22 nC, TO-220FP package - higher thermal resistance (RθJC = 2.5°C/W vs. 3.5°C/W). | Preferred for through-hole prototyping or legacy layouts; lacks D-Pak's automated assembly compatibility. | Choose for manual assembly or thermal testing where heatsink attachment is required. |
Compared with STP20NM20 and IXTP20N20P, IRFR220NPBF offers optimal balance of gate charge, thermal footprint, and avalanche capability for compact, high-frequency SMPS - especially where D-Pak mounting and MSL1 reflow compliance are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
The IRFR220NPBF supports 3.5 A continuous drain current at TC = 100°C with VGS = 10V, derated from 5.0 A at 25°C using the specified linear derating factor of 0.71 W/°C and RθJC = 3.5°C/W. This reflects real-world thermal limits in enclosed power modules.
Does this MOSFET have a fully characterized body diode for synchronous rectification?
Yes - diode parameters are fully specified: VSD = 1.3 V at IS = 2.9A and TJ = 25°C, trr = 90–140 ns, Qrr = 320–480 nC, and IAR = 2.9 A. These values are measured under standardized conditions (di/dt = 100 A/µs) and validated in Application Note AN-1001.
Can IRFR220NPBF be driven directly from a 3.3V microcontroller GPIO?
No - its gate threshold voltage range is 2.0–4.0 V, and full enhancement requires ≥10 V for guaranteed RDS(on) ≤ 600 mΩ. A 3.3V signal may partially turn on the device, causing excessive heating; a dedicated gate driver (e.g., TC4420) or level-shifting circuit is required for reliable switching.
Is the D-Pak package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - the "PbF" suffix confirms lead-free terminations per RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The device meets IPC-J-STD-020 MSL1 classification, allowing standard reflow profiles without pre-baking, and features matte tin plating on all external terminals.
