Product details
Overview
IRFR2905ZTR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is an N-channel enhancement-mode automotive-grade HEXFET® Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252) package, rated for 55 V VDS, 14.5 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 42 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It features 175°C maximum junction temperature, fast switching (tr = 66 ns, tf = 35 ns), and rated repetitive avalanche capability - deployed in engine control modules, DC-DC converters, and motor drivers.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR2905ZTR datasheet, IRFR2905ZTR pinout, IRFR2905ZTR application, or IRFR2905ZTR equivalent, key selection criteria include its low RDS(on) at 10 V gate drive, robust 175°C thermal rating, unclamped inductive switching performance, and AEC-Q101 qualification status confirmed in official Infineon documentation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced planar silicon processing to minimize on-resistance per die area while maintaining high avalanche ruggedness. Its body diode exhibits 1.3 V forward voltage at 36 A and 23–35 ns reverse recovery time (trr), enabling efficient synchronous rectification and freewheeling in hard-switched topologies.
The device operates with gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) between 2.0 V and 4.0 V, total gate charge (Qg) of 29–44 nC, and Miller charge (Qgd) of 12 nC - supporting stable 10 V gate drive in automotive 12 V/24 V systems without requiring negative turn-off bias.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Withstands peak transients up to 55 V in 12 V automotive battery systems with load dump margin. |
| RDS(on) | 14.5 mΩ max @ VGS = 10 V, TJ = 25°C - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 40 A, critical for thermally constrained ECUs. |
| ID (cont) | 42 A @ TC = 25°C - Supports high-current solenoid and pump drivers without external heatsinking at PCB mount. |
| TJ(max) | 175°C - Certified for under-hood operation per AEC-Q101, allowing sustained duty in engine bay environments. |
| EAS | 59 mJ (tested) - Rated for unclamped inductive switching in relay/motor control without snubber circuits. |
| Qg | 44 nC max - Determines gate driver power requirement; compatible with standard 1-A peak gate drivers (e.g., UCC27531). |
| tr/tf | 66 ns / 35 ns - Enables >100 kHz PWM operation in buck converters with minimal switching loss trade-off. |
Pinout & Package
IRFR2905ZTR uses the D-Pak (TO-252AA) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction. The package measures 6.7 mm × 6.2 mm × 2.3 mm and is optimized for PCB copper pour heat spreading.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal (S) | Low-side return path; connects directly to ground plane; carries full load current and body diode reverse recovery current. |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input (G) | High-impedance MOS gate; requires <44 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±20 V absolute max). |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output (D) | Exposed metal pad (Pin 3 equivalent); ties to high-side rail or inductive load; primary thermal path to PCB. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Automotive qualification | AEC-Q101 qualified - Validated for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock per automotive reliability standards. |
| Repetitive avalanche rating | Rated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to TJ(max) - Eliminates need for external avalanche protection in motor phase-legs. |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 11.1 mΩ typical @ 10 V - Reduces I²R losses by >30% vs. legacy 55 V MOSFETs, improving efficiency in 48 V mild-hybrid subsystems. |
| Fast body diode | trr = 23–35 ns, Qrr = 16–24 nC - Minimizes commutation loss and EMI in synchronous rectifiers and H-bridge freewheeling. |
| Thermal robustness | RθJC = 1.38 °C/W - Enables >50 W power dissipation with 2 oz copper + 20 cm² thermal pad, suitable for compact ECU designs. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL130N5LF6AG | 60 V VDS, 10.5 mΩ RDS(on), 130 A ID, PowerFLAT 5x6 package, no AEC-Q101 certification | Higher current capacity but larger footprint; lacks automotive qualification and avalanche rating | Select only for non-automotive industrial 24 V systems where space permits and qualification not required |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS5C675NL | 60 V VDS, 11.5 mΩ RDS(on), 52 A ID, SO-8FL package, AEC-Q101 qualified, lower Qg (32 nC) | Smaller package, lower gate charge, but 1.38 °C/W RθJC not achievable due to smaller thermal pad | Prefer for space-constrained designs needing faster switching; verify thermal margin with 1 oz copper and limited copper area |
Compared with STL130N5LF6AG and NTMFS5C675NL, IRFR2905ZTR delivers optimal balance of automotive qualification, proven avalanche ruggedness, and thermal performance in D-Pak - making it preferred for under-hood applications where reliability under transient stress is non-negotiable.

FAQ
Is IRFR2905ZTR AEC-Q101 qualified?
Yes. IRFR2905ZTR is explicitly AEC-Q101 qualified per Infineon's official product change notice PCN-2019-002 and datasheet revision 1.5. Qualification includes temperature cycling (-40°C to +150°C), highly accelerated stress test (HAST), and mechanical shock testing - all performed on the final packaged device.
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation beyond ±20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable 10 V enhancement, gate drive circuits must clamp at ≤15 V and include series resistance to limit dv/dt-induced coupling during fast switching.
Can IRFR2905ZTR be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but with strict layout and gate drive matching. The positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) (see Fig. 10) enables inherent current sharing. Successful parallel operation requires matched gate resistors (<5% tolerance), symmetrical PCB trace lengths, and shared thermal vias to maintain ΔTJ < 5°C between devices.
Does IRFR2905ZTR include an integrated Schottky diode?
No. IRFR2905ZTR integrates a monolithic body diode formed by the MOSFET's p-n junction - not a discrete Schottky. This diode has VSD = 1.3 V at 36 A and trr = 23–35 ns. It is not optimized for ultra-fast switching like a Schottky but is rated for repetitive avalanche and soft recovery in motor control.
