Product details
Overview
IRFR9310 from Vishay Siliconix is a surface-mount P-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, rated for -400 V drain-source voltage, 7.0 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and -1.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It features fully avalanche-rated ruggedness, fast switching (td(on) = 11 ns), and integrated body diode with 170–260 ns reverse recovery time - used in high-voltage DC-DC converters and industrial motor control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the IRFR9310 datasheet, IRFR9310 pinout, IRFR9310 application, or IRFR9310 equivalent, key selection criteria include its -400 V blocking capability, DPAK thermal performance (RthJC = 2.5 °C/W), gate charge profile (Qg = 13 nC), and avalanche energy rating (EAS = 92 mJ).
Technical Context
This device employs third-generation silicon process technology to achieve low on-resistance per die area while maintaining high-voltage robustness. Its P-channel topology enables high-side switching without level-shifting circuitry in buck or flyback topologies.
The MOSFET integrates a fast-recovery body diode (trr ≤ 260 ns, Qrr ≤ 960 nC) and supports unclamped inductive switching with repetitive avalanche current IAR = -1.8 A and single-pulse EAS = 92 mJ under defined test conditions (L = 57 mH, Rg = 25 Ω).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | -400 V - supports high-voltage DC bus applications up to 400 V reverse polarity |
| RDS(on) | 7.0 Ω @ VGS = -10 V - defines conduction loss in linear or saturated switching regions |
| ID (continuous) | -1.8 A @ TC = 25 °C - maximum steady-state current with heatsink at case temperature |
| Qg | 13 nC - total gate charge determining drive strength and switching speed trade-off |
| EAS | 92 mJ - single-pulse avalanche energy tolerance enabling inductive load handling without snubbers |
| tr/tf | 10 ns / 24 ns - rise/fall times defining minimum PWM frequency and EMI behavior |
| RthJC | 2.5 °C/W - junction-to-case thermal resistance enabling direct heatsink mounting for power dissipation |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction and mechanical stability; lead-free and halogen-free compliant (GE3 suffix variants).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal of P-channel MOSFET | Reference node for gate drive; connects to positive rail in high-side switch configuration |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives negative gate voltage relative to source to turn on; threshold VGS(th) = -2.0 to -4.0 V |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output terminal | Exposed metal pad on underside - electrically and thermally connected to drain; must be soldered to PCB copper pour |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SiHFR9310-GE3 | Same silicon die and DPAK package; Pb-free/halogen-free construction with GE3 suffix | Identical electrical specs and thermal performance; preferred for RoHS-compliant production | Select SiHFR9310-GE3 when lead-free compliance is required; IRFR9310 remains valid for legacy Pb-based assembly. |
| IRFU9310PbF | Same die but IPAK (TO-251) through-hole package; identical VDS, RDS(on), and Qg | Suitable for prototyping or low-volume boards where wave soldering is used; lacks thermal pad for heatsinking | Choose IRFU9310PbF only when through-hole mounting is mandatory; IRFR9310 offers superior thermal management in DPAK. |
Compared with IRFR9310, SiHFR9310-GE3 provides identical performance with enhanced environmental compliance, while IRFU9310PbF trades thermal efficiency for through-hole assembly flexibility - neither is pin-compatible due to differing package footprints and thermal pad presence.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for IRFR9310 at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFR9310 has a continuous drain current rating of -1.1 A at TC = 100 °C, reflecting thermal derating from its -1.8 A rating at 25 °C. This value is critical for thermal design validation in enclosed or high-ambient environments. The linear derating factor is 0.40 W/°C, allowing interpolation for intermediate temperatures. Always verify actual junction temperature using RthJC = 2.5 °C/W and measured case temperature in final layout.
Does IRFR9310 require a gate driver IC for operation in a 200 kHz switching application?
IRFR9310 can operate at 200 kHz with appropriate gate drive, but a dedicated gate driver IC is recommended. Its 13 nC total gate charge demands sufficient peak current (≥1 A) to achieve fast transitions; driving directly from a microcontroller GPIO risks slow edges and increased switching losses. The IRFR9310 gate threshold range (-2.0 to -4.0 V) also requires stable negative bias generation, which most MCUs lack - making an isolated or level-shifted driver essential for reliable high-frequency use.
Can IRFR9310 be used in parallel configurations to increase current handling?
Parallel operation of IRFR9310 devices is not recommended without individual gate resistors and careful layout. Its negative temperature coefficient for RDS(on) (normalized curve shows increasing resistance with temperature) does not inherently balance current, and mismatched parasitic inductances in DPAK leads can cause dynamic current imbalance. For higher current needs, select a single higher-rated MOSFET or consult Vishay Application Note AN826 for validated paralleling guidelines specific to this device family.
What is the significance of the "fully avalanche rated" specification for IRFR9310?
"Fully avalanche rated" means IRFR9310 is characterized and guaranteed to survive single-pulse avalanche events up to 92 mJ and repetitive events up to 5.0 mJ under specified test conditions (L = 57 mH, Rg = 25 Ω). This rating validates its ability to absorb inductive energy without failure - critical in relay drivers, solenoid controls, and flyback converters where voltage spikes exceed VDS. It is not a continuous operating mode but a fault-tolerance specification confirmed by production testing.
Is the IRFR9310 compatible with lead-free reflow soldering processes?
Yes, IRFR9310 is qualified for lead-free reflow soldering with peak temperature up to 300 °C for 10 seconds, per Vishay's soldering recommendations. Its DPAK (TO-252) package is designed for vapor-phase, infrared, or wave soldering. Ensure PCB pad layout follows Vishay Application Note 826 for minimum copper area (e.g., 0.224" × 0.420") to maintain thermal integrity and avoid voiding under the drain pad during reflow. Standard Pb-free SAC305 paste is compatible.
