Product details
Overview
IRFR430ATRLPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 500 V, 5.0 A N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, featuring 1.7 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 24 nC total gate charge, and 130 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - designed for high-voltage switching in offline SMPS and UPS systems.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR430ATRLPBF datasheet, IRFR430ATRLPBF pinout, IRFR430ATRLPBF application, or IRFR430ATRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500 V blocking rating, 1.7 Ω on-resistance at 10 V drive, 24 nC gate charge for moderate-speed switching, rugged dV/dt capability (3.0 V/ns), and DPAK thermal performance (RthJC = 1.1 °C/W).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar vertical DMOS technology with fully characterized capacitance (Ciss = 490 pF, Coss = 75 pF at VGS = 0 V), specified effective output capacitance (Coss eff. = 51 pF), and validated unclamped inductive switching robustness (EAS = 130 mJ, IAR = 5.0 A).
Its gate threshold voltage range (2.0–4.5 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers, while body diode parameters - VSD = 1.5 V at 5.0 A, trr = 410–620 ns - support moderate-frequency freewheeling in hard-switched topologies without requiring external Schottky supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 500 V - supports primary-side switching in universal-input AC/DC converters up to 400 V DC bus |
| RDS(on) | 1.7 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - enables ≤8.5 W conduction loss at 5.0 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 24 nC - compatible with low-power gate drivers (e.g., 1 A peak) for <50 kHz operation |
| EAS | 130 mJ - withstands energy transients during overcurrent or inductive load switching without failure |
| tr/tf | 27 ns / 16 ns - supports fast switching with minimal overlap loss in hard-switched converters |
| RthJC | 1.1 °C/W - allows 110 W dissipation with modest heatsinking (ΔT = 121 °C at TC = 25 °C) |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.5 V - ensures clean turn-on with standard logic-level or microcontroller-driven gate circuits |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection; 3-pin configuration optimized for high-current PCB layout and automated assembly.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives gate drive signal; requires ≤±30 V bias; low 6.5 nC Qgs enables simple RC or IC-based drive |
| D (Drain) | High-voltage power output | Connected to exposed copper pad on bottom of package; carries full switched current and must be routed with wide copper for thermal and EMI control |
| S (Source) | Power return and reference | Provides ground reference for gate drive; ties to source node of driver circuit; critical for minimizing common-source inductance in high-dI/dt switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low Qg (24 nC) | Reduces gate drive power and simplifies driver selection - no need for high-current buffer stages in <100 kHz designs |
| Specified Coss eff. (51 pF) | Enables accurate snubber and resonant timing calculations across full VDS swing (0–400 V) |
| Avalanche-rated (EAS = 130 mJ) | Eliminates need for external clamping in inductive switching applications like relay drivers or motor controls |
| High dV/dt immunity (3.0 V/ns) | Prevents false turn-on during fast transient events in noisy industrial or high-side configurations |
| Characterized body diode (trr = 410–620 ns) | Supports predictable freewheeling behavior in flyback and forward converters without external diode substitution |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP5NK50ZFP | 500 V, 4.5 A, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω, Qg = 22 nC, TO-220FP package | Higher current density but through-hole mounting; lacks DPAK's thermal pad advantage | Preferred where higher peak current and through-hole reliability outweigh surface-mount thermal benefits |
| IXTP50N10P | 100 V, 50 A, RDS(on) = 0.022 Ω, Qg = 75 nC, TO-220 package | Lower voltage rating but vastly lower on-resistance; unsuitable for >100 V applications | Only viable in low-voltage, high-current DC-DC stages - not a functional substitute for 500 V operation |
Compared with STP5NK50ZFP, IRFR430ATRLPBF offers superior thermal interface via DPAK's exposed drain pad and tighter gate charge control, while IXTP50N10P serves entirely different voltage-class applications and cannot replace IRFR430ATRLPBF in 400 V bus environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFR430ATRLPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current for IRFR430ATRLPBF is 3.2 A when the case temperature (TC) is 100 °C, as defined by its linear derating factor of 0.91 W/°C and 110 W maximum power dissipation at 25 °C. This value reflects thermal limitation, not device intrinsic capability, and assumes proper PCB copper area per Vishay Application Note 826.
Does IRFR430ATRLPBF have a built-in body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, IRFR430ATRLPBF integrates a body diode inherent to its vertical MOSFET structure. Key parameters include forward voltage VSD = 1.5 V at 5.0 A and 25 °C, reverse recovery time trr = 410–620 ns at 25 °C, and reverse recovery charge Qrr = 1.4–2.1 μC - all measured under standardized conditions (IF = 5.0 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs).
Can IRFR430ATRLPBF be used with 5 V logic-level gate drive?
No - IRFR430ATRLPBF is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage ranges from 2.0 V to 4.5 V, but full enhancement and guaranteed RDS(on) ≤ 1.7 Ω require VGS = 10 V. At 5 V, RDS(on) increases significantly (not characterized in datasheet), resulting in excessive conduction loss and thermal risk; a 10 V gate driver is mandatory for rated performance.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to case (RthJC) for IRFR430ATRLPBF, and how is it measured?
The junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC) for IRFR430ATRLPBF is 1.1 °C/W maximum, measured from the silicon die junction to the drain metal tab (exposed pad) of the DPAK package. This value assumes ideal thermal interface (flat, greased surface) and is critical for calculating allowable power dissipation when heatsinking the drain pad directly.
Is IRFR430ATRLPBF RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, IRFR430ATRLPBF is lead (Pb)-free and halogen-free, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and Vishay's material compliance standard (document 99912). The "PbF" suffix explicitly denotes lead-free termination, and the part is qualified for use in environmentally regulated industrial and consumer applications.
