Product details
Overview
IRFS3206PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 60V, 2.4 mΩ typ. N-channel D2PAK-7L HEXFET® Power MOSFET optimized for high-current synchronous rectification in hard-switched SMPS and UPS systems. It delivers 120A package-limited continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, features 120 nC total gate charge, and supports 33 ns typical reverse recovery time in its integrated body diode.
For engineers reviewing the IRFS3206PBF datasheet, IRFS3206PBF pinout, IRFS3206PBF application, or IRFS3206PBF equivalent, this device is selected for high-frequency power conversion where low RDS(on), robust avalanche capability (170 mJ single-pulse), and fast diode recovery are critical to efficiency and reliability in 48–60V bus architectures.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon-gate technology with optimized cell pitch and trench-assisted source metallization to achieve ultra-low on-resistance while maintaining high dV/dt immunity (≥50 V/ns) and enhanced body diode ruggedness. Its SOA is fully characterized up to 100 μs pulses at 175°C junction temperature.
The device integrates a low-Qrr (41–62 nC), low-VSD (≤1.3 V) intrinsic body diode with controlled reverse recovery waveform-enabling reliable operation in synchronous buck, LLC resonant, and bidirectional DC/DC topologies without external Schottky supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 48V nominal input systems with 20% transient margin. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 2.4 mΩ - Enables ≤1.2 W conduction loss at 75 A, reducing heatsink requirements in high-current rails. |
| ID (Package) | 120 A @ TC = 25°C - Determined by leadframe thermal and bond-wire current limits, not silicon capacity. |
| Qg | 120 nC - Gate drive energy requirement dictates minimum driver peak current (≥2.4 A for 50 ns rise time). |
| trr | 33 ns - Fast body diode recovery minimizes shoot-through risk and switching losses in synchronous rectifiers. |
| EAS | 170 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche rating allows unclamped inductive switching survival in UPS and motor drive fault conditions. |
| RθJC | 0.50 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct mounting to heatsinks with <1.1 N·m torque (6-32 screw). |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK-7L (TO-263-7L) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance; 7-terminal configuration includes 3-source pins, 1-gate, and 3-drain connections (2 outer + 1 center tab).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (S1) | Source | Primary low-side return path; paralleled with S2/S3 to reduce source inductance in high-dI/dt switching. |
| Pin 2 (G) | Gate | Control terminal requiring 10 V for full enhancement; threshold voltage range 2.0–4.0 V ensures noise immunity. |
| Pin 3 (S2) | Source | Secondary source connection; used with S1/S3 to distribute high-frequency return current across PCB copper. |
| Pin 4 (D1) | Drain | High-current output node tied to internal die drain metallization; electrically and thermally connected to exposed pad. |
| Pin 5 (S3) | Source | Third source terminal enabling Kelvin-sensing configurations or multi-layer PCB routing optimization. |
| Pin 6 (D2) | Drain | Secondary drain connection enhancing current sharing and reducing package parasitic inductance. |
| Pin 7 (D3) | Drain | Center-tab drain terminal providing lowest-inductance path to heatsink and minimizing VDS ringing during turn-off. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Enhanced body diode dV/dt and dI/dt capability | Rated for 360 A/μs di/dt and ≥50 V/ns dv/dt - prevents spurious turn-on during fast commutation in bridge legs. |
| Fully characterized avalanche SOA | 170 mJ single-pulse EAS validated at TJ = 175°C - eliminates need for external snubbers in UPS hold-up circuits. |
| Lead-free, RoHS-compliant, halogen-free | Meets IPC-J-STD-020D reflow profile (peak 260°C) and IEC 61249-2-21 material restrictions for industrial compliance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current 60V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFB3206PBF | TO-220AB package; higher RθJA (62 °C/W); same RDS(on) and Qg; no D2PAK-7L pinout. | Limited to lower-power, through-hole designs with forced-air cooling; unsuitable for high-density SMT layouts. | Select when board space permits through-hole mounting and thermal interface uses clip-on heatsinks. |
| STL220N6F7 | 60V, 1.8 mΩ typ., 220A; trench-gate Si; 105 nC Qg; different pinout and footprint; non-drop-in replacement. | Better conduction loss but higher gate charge sensitivity; requires redesigned gate driver layout and layout validation. | Choose only if system-level efficiency gain justifies full PCB redesign and qualification cycle. |
Compared with IRFB3206PBF, IRFS3206PBF offers superior thermal performance via D2PAK-7L's lower RθJC and distributed source/drain terminals, while STL220N6F7 trades higher cost and layout effort for marginal RDS(on) improvement-making IRFS3206PBF the optimal balance of manufacturability, ruggedness, and thermal scalability.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFS3206PBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current at TC = 100°C is 150 A (silicon-limited), as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This value reflects thermal derating based on junction-to-case thermal resistance and maximum allowable junction temperature of 175°C, not package or bond-wire limits.
Does IRFS3206PBF support gate drive voltages below 10 V?
Yes-its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, enabling partial enhancement at 5 V. However, full RDS(on) specification (2.4 mΩ typ.) is guaranteed only at VGS = 10 V; operation at 5 V yields ~3× higher on-resistance and increased conduction loss.
Can IRFS3206PBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes-the D2PAK-7L package's three-source terminals and matched RDS(on) tolerance (±20%) support current sharing in parallel operation. Designers must ensure symmetrical PCB layout, matched gate drive impedance, and thermal coupling to avoid imbalance; derating by 15% per device is recommended.
Is the body diode suitable for reverse recovery in high-dI/dt applications?
Yes-the body diode is characterized for dI/dt up to 360 A/μs and reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of 41–62 nC at 125°C. Its fast trr (33 ns typ.) and low IRRM (≤2.1 A) make it suitable for synchronous rectification without external diode supplementation in most 48V bus applications.
