Product details
Overview
IRFR3708TRLPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 30V, 61A N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252) package, featuring 12.5mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10V and ultra-low gate charge (24nC), optimized for high-frequency synchronous rectification in isolated DC-DC converters for telecom and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR3708TRLPBF datasheet, IRFR3708TRLPBF pinout, IRFR3708TRLPBF application, or IRFR3708TRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5V logic-level gate drive capability, 213mJ single-pulse avalanche energy rating, body diode reverse recovery performance (trr = 41–65ns), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.73°C/W) for high-power-density SMPS designs.
Technical Context
This HEXFET device employs planar stripe cell structure with optimized gate oxide thickness to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining robust 30V breakdown voltage (V(BR)DSS) and stable threshold voltage (0.6–2.0V). Its dynamic parameters-including 5.8nC Miller charge (Qgd) and 2417pF input capacitance (Ciss)-are characterized at VDS = 15V and support fast switching up to several hundred kHz.
The integrated body diode exhibits low forward voltage (0.88V @ 31A, 25°C) and tightly specified reverse recovery (Qrr = 64–105nC), enabling efficient synchronous rectification without external Schottky replacement in 48V-input telecom converters. Thermal design leverages low junction-to-case resistance (1.73°C/W) for direct heatsink mounting via the exposed drain pad.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRL3708PBF | RDS(on) = 14mΩ @ 4.5V (vs. 12.5mΩ @ 10V); higher Qg = 32nC | Better suited for 3.3V gate drive; less efficient at 10V due to higher on-resistance | Select when gate drive voltage is limited to ≤4.5V and lower switching frequency (<200kHz) is acceptable |
| STP30NF20 | VDS = 200V, RDS(on) = 38mΩ @ 10V, Qg = 45nC - higher voltage, lower speed | Designed for 100–200V flyback primaries; unsuitable for 30V synchronous rectification | Only consider for higher-voltage, lower-frequency applications where 30V rating is insufficient |
Compared with IRL3708PBF and STP30NF20, IRFR3708TRLPBF delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), fast switching, and 30V rating for high-efficiency, high-frequency DC-DC conversion-making it preferred for telecom and server power where thermal density and efficiency are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 70°C ambient temperature?
The IRFR3708TRLPBF supports 51A continuous drain current at TA = 70°C with proper PCB copper area (1"² FR-4) and no forced airflow. This rating assumes junction temperature remains below 175°C, governed by RθJA = 50°C/W under those conditions. Derating follows 0.58W/°C beyond 70°C ambient.
Does this MOSFET require a gate resistor for safe operation?
A gate resistor (typically 1–10Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing and control dV/dt during switching, especially given its low Qgd/Qg ratio and fast turn-off characteristics. The datasheet specifies switching times with RG = 0.6Ω; increasing RG improves EMI but extends td(off) and tf proportionally.
Can IRFR3708TRLPBF be used in linear (analog) mode applications?
No-it is not rated or characterized for linear-mode operation. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve limits continuous operation to pulse widths ≤10ms at VDS > 10V, and sustained linear bias risks thermal runaway due to positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient above 100°C. Use only in switched-mode configurations.
Is the body diode suitable for freewheeling in boost converters?
Yes-the body diode is fully characterized with trr = 41–65ns and Qrr = 64–105nC, making it viable for freewheeling in medium-frequency (≤500kHz) boost converters. However, for highest efficiency, pairing with an external Schottky diode is advised when diode conduction time exceeds 30% of switching period.
