Product details
Overview
IRFR4104TR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is an N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252) package, rated for 40 V VDS, 58 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and 11.5 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It serves as a high-efficiency synchronous rectifier or low-side switch in DC-DC converters and motor drive half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR4104TR datasheet, IRFR4104TR pinout, IRFR4104TR application, or IRFR4104TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40 V blocking voltage, 58 A thermal-limited current capability, D-Pak thermal performance, logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) max 3.0 V), and suitability for high-frequency switching up to 500 kHz.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process technology with optimized cell pitch and trench-assisted source metallization to achieve low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit. Its gate threshold voltage range (1.0–3.0 V) enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting.
The device features fully avalanche-rated operation (EAS = 170 mJ at TJ = 25°C), integrated body diode with soft recovery (trr = 55 ns), and guaranteed 100% UIS testing per production lot - critical for inductive load switching reliability.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage; defines safe operating range in 12 V/24 V automotive and industrial bus applications. |
| ID (continuous) | 58 A @ TC = 25°C - Thermal limit under heatsink-mounted condition; supports >30 W conduction loss handling in compact layouts. |
| RDS(on) (typ) | 11.5 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <0.4 W conduction loss at 6 A; critical for efficiency in battery-powered systems. |
| VGS(th) | 1.0–3.0 V - Logic-level gate threshold; ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V GPIO or PWM drivers. |
| Qg (typ) | 42 nC @ VGS = 10 V - Determines gate drive power requirement; compatible with low-current gate drivers like TC4427. |
| EAS | 170 mJ @ TJ = 25°C - Rated single-pulse avalanche energy; supports robust operation during inductive turn-off transients. |
Pinout & Package
Package: D-Pak (TO-252), surface-mount, single-die, isolated tab (drain-connected). Thermal resistance RθJA = 62°C/W (standard PCB layout, 1 in² copper).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Low-side reference node; connects directly to ground plane or current-sense resistor. |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOS gate; requires <100 pF Miller capacitance management for fast switching. |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output | Internally bonded to exposed copper pad; must be routed to high-current trace or thermal pad. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS ≥ 4.5 V - eliminates need for gate driver ICs in 5 V control systems. |
| 100% UIS tested | Every unit validated for unclamped inductive switching - ensures field reliability in motor and solenoid loads. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 0.29 - reduces Miller-induced shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations. |
| Enhanced body diode | trr = 55 ns, Qrr = 42 nC - minimizes reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectification. |
Applications
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Automotive LED Headlamp Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Low-side switching in 3-phase BLDC inverter for e-bike or power tool drives. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: N-channel power switch in each leg's low-side position; commutated at 10–20 kHz. Use Value: 11.5 mΩ RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <0.4 W at 6 A phase current, enabling passive cooling. | Use Scenario: PWM-controlled current sink for adaptive front-lighting system (AFS) LED arrays. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-duty-cycle, high-repetition-rate switch regulating 2–5 A LED strings from 12 V battery rail. Use Value: Logic-level VGS(th) allows direct MCU GPIO control; 58 A rating supports surge tolerance during cold-start inrush. |
| Server VRM Synchronous Rectifier | Industrial PLC Output Module |
Use Scenario: Secondary-side synchronous rectification in 48 V → 12 V intermediate bus converter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching low-side rectifier replacing Schottky diode; driven by gate signal synchronized to primary FET. Use Value: 55 ns trr and soft recovery reduce EMI vs. standard diodes; 42 nC Qg enables <100 ns turn-on with 1 A driver. | Use Scenario: Solid-state replacement for electromechanical relay in 24 V DC digital output module. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Load switch isolating field devices (valves, sensors) from controller backplane. Use Value: 170 mJ EAS withstands inductive kickback from 24 V solenoids; TO-252 footprint simplifies PCB rework vs. TO-220. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 40 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP40NF10L | RDS(on) = 14 mΩ @ 10 V; higher gate charge (72 nC); same D-Pak package. | Lower switching efficiency above 200 kHz due to higher Qg. | Prefer when cost sensitivity outweighs 12% conduction loss penalty and layout space permits larger gate driver. |
| IXTP40N10T | RDS(on) = 12.5 mΩ @ 10 V; TO-220 package; no logic-level gate (VGS(th) = 2–4 V). | Requires external gate pull-up for reliable 3.3 V drive; less suitable for dense SMT layouts. | Choose only if through-hole assembly is mandated or thermal mass of TO-220 improves long-duration pulse handling. |
Compared with STP40NF10L and IXTP40N10T, IRFR4104TR delivers superior combination of logic-level drive, lowest RDS(on), and D-Pak thermal-mechanical fit - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-efficiency 12–24 V switching applications requiring minimal gate drive overhead.

FAQ
Is IRFR4104TR suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With VGS(th) specified from 1.0 V to 3.0 V and full enhancement achieved at VGS ≥ 4.5 V, IRFR4104TR reliably switches on using 3.3 V GPIO outputs when paired with appropriate gate resistor (e.g., 10 Ω series) and layout minimizing parasitic inductance.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for thermal performance?
For optimal RθJA = 62°C/W, use ≥1 in² (645 mm²) of 2-oz copper connected to the drain pad via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, spaced ≤2 mm apart). Larger copper areas further reduce junction temperature but yield diminishing returns beyond 2 in².
Does IRFR4104TR have avalanche ruggedness certification?
Yes. Every production lot undergoes 100% unclamped inductive switching (UIS) testing per JEDEC JESD24-11. The rated single-pulse avalanche energy is 170 mJ at TJ = 25°C, with derating to 85 mJ at TJ = 125°C - documented in Infineon's official datasheet Rev. A2.
Can IRFR4104TR replace IRFZ44N in existing designs?
Yes, with caveats: both are 40 V N-channel MOSFETs in different packages (D-Pak vs. TO-220). IRFR4104TR offers lower RDS(on) (11.5 mΩ vs. 28 mΩ) and logic-level drive, but requires PCB redesign for surface-mount layout and thermal pad connection. Gate drive timing remains compatible.
