Product details

Overview

IRFR220PBF-BE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 200 V, 4.8 A N-channel surface-mount power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 0.80 Ω R_DS(on) at V_GS = 10 V, 14 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating-designed for DC-DC converters, motor control, and industrial power switching where ruggedness and fast switching are required.

For engineers reviewing the IRFR220PBF-BE3 datasheet, IRFR220PBF-BE3 pinout, IRFR220PBF-BE3 application, or IRFR220PBF-BE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 200 V drain-source breakdown voltage, 4.8 A continuous drain current at T_C = 25 °C, 3.0 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, dV/dt immunity of 5.0 V/ns, and compatibility with vapor-phase and wave soldering processes.

Technical Context

This third-generation power MOSFET uses planar V-groove technology to achieve low on-resistance while maintaining high ruggedness. Its dynamic dV/dt rating and unclamped inductive switching capability support reliable operation in hard-switched topologies without external snubbers.

The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode with t_rr = 150–300 ns and Q_rr = 0.91–1.8 μC, enabling efficient synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck and flyback converters. Gate drive requirements are defined by Q_gs = 3.0 nC and Q_gd = 7.9 nC, supporting standard 10 V logic-level driving.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_DS	200 V - supports input rails up to 170 V DC in offline or industrial bus applications
R_DS(on)	0.80 Ω @ V_GS = 10 V - enables <1.1 W conduction loss at 3.3 A, suitable for medium-power SMPS
I_D (continuous)	4.8 A @ T_C = 25 °C - requires heatsinking or PCB copper area for sustained >3 A operation
Q_g	14 nC - determines gate driver current demand and switching speed in hard-switched circuits
E_AS	161 mJ - allows safe single-pulse inductive energy handling without external clamping
R_thJC	3.0 °C/W - enables direct thermal coupling to heatsink via exposed drain pad in DPAK package
dV/dt	5.0 V/ns - resists false turn-on in high-noise, fast-rising edge environments

Pinout & Package

DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; standardized 3-pin layout optimized for automated assembly and high-current PCB routing.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
G (Gate)	Control terminal	Receives 10 V logic-level signal; 3.0 nC gate-source charge defines Miller plateau timing
D (Drain)	High-side power output	Exposed metal pad on underside-must be connected to system ground plane or heatsink for thermal management
S (Source)	Reference node / return path	Provides low-inductance source return; internal source inductance LS = 7.5 nH affects switching ringing

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Repetitive avalanche rated	Supports 4.8 A I_AR and 4.2 mJ E_AR under pulsed inductive loads-enables robust operation without derating in motor drive flyback phases
Dynamic dV/dt rating	5.0 V/ns immunity prevents spurious turn-on during high dv/dt transients in half-bridge or LLC resonant circuits
Fast switching	td(on) = 7.2 ns, tr = 22 ns, td(off) = 19 ns, tf = 13 ns - reduces switching losses in 100–500 kHz SMPS designs
Body diode with low Q_rr	Q_rr = 0.91–1.8 μC and t_rr = 150–300 ns - minimizes reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectifier and freewheeling roles
Surface-mount (DPAK)	TO-252 footprint with thermal pad - compatible with IPC-7351B land pattern; recommended pad dimensions: 6.18 mm × 5.69 mm (243 mil × 224 mil)

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
IRFR210PBF	Lower V_DS (100 V), lower R_DS(on) (1.5 Ω), same DPAK package and pinout	Not suitable for 200 V bus applications; limited to ≤80 V DC systems	Select only when input voltage is capped below 90 V and lower on-resistance is prioritized over voltage margin
SiHFR220-GE3	Identical V_DS, R_DS(on), Q_g, and package; halogen-free, RoHS-compliant variant from same Vishay family	No functional difference; differs only in material compliance and manufacturing location	Preferred for new designs requiring halogen-free certification; drop-in replacement with identical electrical behavior

Compared with IRFR220PBF-BE3, IRFR210PBF sacrifices voltage rating for lower conduction loss in low-voltage systems, while SiHFR220-GE3 delivers identical performance with enhanced environmental compliance-making it the preferred upgrade path for production continuity and regulatory alignment.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for IRFR220PBF-BE3 at 100 °C case temperature?

The IRFR220PBF-BE3 has a continuous drain current rating of 3.0 A at T_C = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package and must be applied when ambient or board-level thermal conditions prevent the case from remaining at 25 °C. Designers should verify junction temperature using R_thJC = 3.0 °C/W and actual power dissipation.

Does IRFR220PBF-BE3 support logic-level gate drive?

No, IRFR220PBF-BE3 is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage V_GS(th) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, and it is characterized for full enhancement at V_GS = 10 V. For reliable R_DS(on) = 0.80 Ω operation, a 10 V gate drive is required; 5 V logic signals will result in significantly higher on-resistance and potential thermal runaway.

What is the avalanche energy rating of IRFR220PBF-BE3, and how is it tested?

The IRFR220PBF-BE3 is rated for 161 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (E_AS) under test conditions of V_DD = 50 V, starting T_J = 25 °C, L = 14 mH, R_g = 25 Ω, and I_AS = 4.8 A. This rating is validated per JEDEC JESD24-11 and confirms the device can safely absorb inductive energy without failure during unclamped inductive switching events.

Can IRFR220PBF-BE3 be used in parallel configurations?

Yes, IRFR220PBF-BE3 is designed for ease of paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of R_DS(on), which promotes current sharing across multiple devices. To ensure balanced operation, use matched gate resistors, symmetrical PCB layout, and common-source routing to minimize loop inductance differences between parallel units.

What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for IRFR220PBF-BE3 in standard PCB mount?

When mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB, the IRFR220PBF-BE3 has a maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (R_thJA) of 50 °C/W. This value assumes no external heatsink and relies on copper area for heat spreading; adding thermal vias under the drain pad or increasing copper area can improve this metric by 15–30 %.
