Product details
Overview
IRFR3710ZPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 100 V, 42 A (TC = 25°C), D-Pak packaged N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET with 15–18 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and 175°C maximum junction temperature. It delivers fast switching (tr = 43 ns, tf = 42 ns), 200 mJ tested single-pulse avalanche energy, and is widely deployed in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and power supply synchronous rectification.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR3710ZPBF datasheet, IRFR3710ZPBF pinout, IRFR3710ZPBF application, or IRFR3710ZPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.05°C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, 69–100 nC total gate charge, body diode reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 41–62 nC), and validated repetitive avalanche capability up to Tjmax.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced silicon processing to achieve ultra-low on-resistance per die area while maintaining robust unclamped inductive switching performance. Its design supports high-current, high-temperature operation with guaranteed 175°C junction rating and thermally limited EAS = 150 mJ (typical) under standardized test conditions (L = 0.28 mH, IAS = 33 A, RG = 25 Ω).
The device integrates a low-inductance internal structure (LD = 4.5 nH, LS = 7.5 nH) and exhibits Ciss = 2930 pF, Coss = 290 pF (VDS = 25 V), and Crss = 180 pF - enabling predictable gate drive behavior and reduced switching losses in hard-switched topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 100 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines upper limit for bus voltage in buck, flyback, and half-bridge designs. |
| RDS(on) | 15–18 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 33 A - Directly determines conduction loss (Pcond ≈ ID² × RDS(on)) in continuous high-current operation. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 42 A - Package-limited continuous drain current; sets practical output current ceiling for PCB-mounted D-Pak layout with adequate heatsinking. |
| Qg | 69–100 nC - Total gate charge required to fully turn on; governs gate driver power requirement and switching speed trade-off. |
| EAS (tested) | 200 mJ - Minimum single-pulse avalanche energy verified 100% in production; enables reliable operation during inductive load turn-off transients. |
| RθJC | 1.05 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; used with heatsink interface to calculate ΔTj-c = PD × RθJC for thermal design. |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.0 V - Gate threshold voltage range; ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level gate drivers. |
Pinout & Package
IRFR3710ZPBF uses the industry-standard D-Pak (TO-252AA) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal dissipation. The package measures 6.7 mm × 6.2 mm × 2.4 mm and is lead-free (RoHS-compliant).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G | Gate | Controls channel formation; requires ≥10 V for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD (±20 V absolute max rating). |
| D | Drain | Main high-side current path; electrically connected to exposed copper pad for thermal and electrical grounding in PCB layout. |
| S | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; forms intrinsic body diode anode (S→D forward conduction). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 15–18 mΩ enables <1 W conduction loss at 33 A, reducing thermal stress in compact power stages. |
| 175°C operating junction temperature | Supports sustained operation in high-ambient environments (e.g., industrial motor controllers, automotive under-hood modules). |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Validated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to Tjmax, eliminating need for external snubbers in many flyback/LLC designs. |
| Fast switching with low Qgd/Qgs | Qgd = 25 nC and Qgs = 15 nC yield low Miller ratio, improving immunity to dv/dt-induced false turn-on. |
| Low source/drain inductance | LS = 7.5 nH and LD = 4.5 nH minimize parasitic ringing and improve EMI performance in high-frequency SMPS. |
Applications
| DC-DC Synchronous Rectifier | Brushless DC Motor Drive |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Used as low-side synchronous rectifier in 12 V–48 V input buck converters delivering up to 30 A output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Replaces Schottky diode to reduce forward conduction loss and improve efficiency by >3% at full load. Use Value: 15–18 mΩ RDS(on) cuts conduction loss vs. 0.4 V Schottky (e.g., ~0.42 W vs. ~1.2 W at 30 A), directly lowering thermal design burden. | Use Scenario: High-side switch in three-phase inverter stage driving 200–500 W BLDC motors in HVAC blowers and power tools. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Handles 42 A peak phase current with fast turn-off (tf = 42 ns) to minimize shoot-through risk during PWM commutation. Use Value: 200 mJ tested avalanche energy absorbs inductive kickback during fault events without failure, enhancing system reliability. |
| Industrial AC-DC Power Supply | LED Driver Constant-Current Stage |
Use Scenario: Primary-side switching FET in 150–300 W LLC resonant converter with 380 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Operates in ZVS region but must withstand voltage spikes during transient overloads. Use Value: 100 V VDSS provides 20% margin above nominal 380 V bus (peak ≈ 475 V), while 1.05°C/W RθJC enables stable thermal management on 1"² FR-4 PCB. | Use Scenario: Low-side current-sense switch in constant-current LED driver for street lighting (30–60 V string, 1.5–3 A). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Modulates LED current via PWM at 1–20 kHz with minimal duty-cycle distortion. Use Value: VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V ensures clean turn-on with microcontroller GPIO; low Qg (69–100 nC) reduces gate driver power consumption and heat. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP36NF10 | RDS(on) = 30 mΩ (higher), Qg = 75 nC, same VDSS = 100 V, TO-220 package | Higher conduction loss; requires through-hole mounting and larger heatsink; no D-Pak footprint compatibility | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs board space and thermal constraints; avoid in high-density SMT designs. |
| IRF3205PbF | RDS(on) = 8.0 mΩ (lower), but VDSS = 55 V, TO-220 package, no avalanche rating specified | Not suitable for 100 V bus applications; lacks documented repetitive avalanche capability | Only consider for ≤48 V systems where lower RDS(on) justifies voltage derating and package change. |
Compared with STP36NF10 and IRF3205PbF, IRFR3710ZPBF uniquely combines D-Pak SMT compatibility, 100 V rating, sub-20 mΩ on-resistance, and production-tested 200 mJ avalanche energy - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability industrial power stages.

FAQ
Is IRFR3710ZPBF suitable for logic-level gate drive?
No - IRFR3710ZPBF is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its VGS(th) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, and it requires ≥10 V gate drive to achieve rated RDS(on) of 15–18 mΩ. Driving it with only 3.3 V or 5 V results in significantly higher on-resistance and excessive conduction loss. A dedicated gate driver or level-shifter is recommended for microcontroller-based control.
What is the maximum allowable case temperature for continuous operation?
The maximum continuous case temperature is 100°C, beyond which the package-limited continuous drain current drops from 42 A (at 25°C) to 39 A (at 100°C). Operation above 100°C risks exceeding the 175°C junction limit unless thermal resistance is reduced via enhanced heatsinking or forced airflow - always verify using RθJC = 1.05°C/W and measured PD.
Does IRFR3710ZPBF have a built-in body diode, and what are its recovery characteristics?
Yes - it features an integral N-channel body diode (source-to-drain). At TJ = 25°C and IF = 33 A, its reverse recovery time (trr) is 35–53 ns, with Qrr = 41–62 nC and di/dt = 100 A/µs. These values indicate fast, soft recovery suitable for synchronous rectification, but external Schottky clamping may still be needed in ultra-high-frequency (>500 kHz) or high-di/dt applications.
How is avalanche energy tested, and is it production-verified?
Avalanche energy is tested per JEDEC JESD24-11 using unclamped inductive switching (UIS) with L = 0.28 mH, IAS = 33 A, RG = 25 Ω, and starting TJ = 25°C. The 200 mJ value is 100% production-tested on every unit - not just sampled - ensuring each device meets this minimum energy absorption capability before shipment.
