Product details
Overview
IRFR320TRL from Vishay Siliconix is a 400 V, 3.1 A N-channel surface-mount power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 1.8 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 20 nC total gate charge, and repetitive avalanche rating-designed for high-voltage DC-DC converters, offline SMPS primary-side switching, and industrial motor control drivers.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR320TRL datasheet, IRFR320TRL pinout, IRFR320TRL application, or IRFR320TRL equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal derating behavior, body diode recovery characteristics (trr = 270–600 ns), PCB-mount power dissipation (2.5 W), and validated alternatives for high-reliability 400 V switching designs.
Technical Context
This device belongs to Vishay's third-generation high-voltage TrenchFET® family, optimized for rugged unclamped inductive switching with 160 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy and 4.0 V/ns peak diode recovery dV/dt rating. Its dynamic parameters-including 11 nC Qgd, 3.3 nC Qgs, and 10 ns turn-on delay-support fast, low-loss hard-switching topologies.
The IRFR320TRL integrates a co-packaged body diode with 1.6 V forward drop at 3.1 A and 270–600 ns reverse recovery time, enabling operation in flyback and resonant converter configurations without external diode supplementation under moderate current conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 400 V - supports primary-side switching in universal-input offline SMPS up to 375 V DC bus |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 1.8 Ω - enables <3.5 W conduction loss at 3.1 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 20 nC - determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed in 100–500 kHz converters |
| ID (TC = 25 °C) | 3.1 A - maximum continuous current with heatsink; derates linearly to 2.0 A at 100 °C case temperature |
| EAS | 160 mJ - ensures robustness against transient overvoltage during inductive load switching |
| trr | 270–600 ns - defines minimum dead-time requirements in synchronous or quasi-resonant topologies |
| RthJA (PCB mount) | 50 °C/W - sets thermal rise of 125 °C above ambient at 2.5 W dissipation on 1" FR-4 board |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction; standard 3-pin configuration optimized for automated assembly and high-power density layouts.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control input | Receives 10 V logic-level drive; 3.3 nC Qgs enables fast turn-on with low driver loss |
| D (Drain) | High-side switch node | Connected to exposed copper pad; carries full 400 V blocking and 3.1 A load current |
| S (Source) | Reference return path | Provides common reference for gate drive and current sensing; internal source inductance = 7.5 nH |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Withstands 3.1 A repetitive avalanche current and 4.2 mJ energy without degradation-critical for flyback snubberless designs |
| Dynamic dV/dt immunity | Rated for 4.0 V/ns-prevents false turn-on during high dv/dt transients in high-side switching |
| Fast switching performance | 10 ns td(on), 14 ns tr, 30 ns td(off), 13 ns tf enable efficient operation in >200 kHz SMPS |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 11/20 = 55% - improves Miller immunity and reduces risk of shoot-through in half-bridge configurations |
| Lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow profile for vapor-phase soldering |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiHFR320-GE3 | Same die, identical RDS(on), Qg, and avalanche ratings; differs only in tape-and-reel packaging and halogen-free marking | No functional difference; fully interchangeable in layout and thermal design | Select SiHFR320-GE3 when RoHS-compliant halogen-free certification is required per IPC-1752A |
| IRFR3710TRPbF | Higher VDS (100 V), lower RDS(on) (0.056 Ω), higher Qg (120 nC); not avalanche-rated | Unsuitable for 400 V applications; requires redesign for voltage derating and gate drive strength | Choose IRFR3710TRPbF only for ≤100 V high-current DC-DC stages where avalanche robustness is not needed |
Compared with IRFR320TRL, SiHFR320-GE3 offers identical electrical and thermal performance with enhanced environmental compliance, while IRFR3710TRPbF trades voltage capability for lower on-resistance and higher gate charge-making it incompatible for direct replacement in 400 V circuits.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFR320TRL at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFR320TRL supports 2.0 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, based on its linear derating factor of 0.33 W/°C from the 42 W maximum power dissipation at 25 °C. This value is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table of Vishay document 91273 and applies under proper PCB thermal management per Figure 9.
Does IRFR320TRL have an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, the IRFR320TRL includes an integral body diode with VSD = 1.6 V at IS = 3.1 A and TJ = 25 °C, reverse recovery time trr = 270–600 ns, and reverse recovery charge Qrr = 1.4–3.0 μC. These values are measured per the test conditions in the "Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics" section of the IRFR320TRL datasheet (document 91273).
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for IRFR320TRL when mounted on a standard PCB?
When mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB, the IRFR320TRL has RthJA = 50 °C/W, enabling 2.5 W power dissipation before reaching the 150 °C maximum junction temperature. This value is specified in the Thermal Resistance Ratings table (note "a") of Vishay document 91273 and assumes no additional heatsink.
Is IRFR320TRL suitable for avalanche operation, and what are its rated limits?
Yes, the IRFR320TRL is explicitly repetitive avalanche rated: IAR = 3.1 A and EAR = 4.2 mJ under pulsed conditions, with single-pulse avalanche energy EAS = 160 mJ. These ratings are validated per the unclamped inductive test circuit in Figure 12 and require adherence to pulse width and duty cycle limits defined in the datasheet notes.
What gate voltage is required to fully enhance IRFR320TRL, and what is its threshold range?
The IRFR320TRL has a gate-source threshold voltage VGS(th) ranging from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at ID = 250 μA, but full enhancement (RDS(on) ≤ 1.8 Ω) requires VGS = 10 V per the PRODUCT SUMMARY and SPECIFICATIONS tables. Operation at 5 V is not guaranteed and falls outside the specified on-resistance performance window.
