Product details
Overview
IRFS4228TRLPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 150 V, 170 A, 12 mΩ N-channel D2PAK-3L Power MOSFET optimized for plasma display panel (PDP) sustain, energy recovery, and pass switch circuits. It features low EPULSE rating (≤120 µJ at 100°C), 71 nC total gate charge, and 175°C maximum junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IRFS4228TRLPBF datasheet, IRFS4228TRLPBF pinout, IRFS4228TRLPBF application, or IRFS4228TRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include repetitive avalanche capability (180 V), fast switching (tr = 59 ns, tf = 33 ns), low RDS(on) temperature coefficient, and robust thermal performance in high-current PDP sustain stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced HEXFET® process technology with optimized die layout for high peak current handling and low pulse energy dissipation. Its 12 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and TJ = 25°C enables efficient conduction in high-duty-cycle PDP sustain drivers.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 76–110 ns reverse recovery time and 230–350 nC Qrr, supporting unclamped inductive switching in energy recovery topologies. Junction-to-case thermal resistance is 0.45°C/W (typ), enabling high-power operation with minimal heatsink requirements.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS (min) | 150 V - Withstands full PDP sustain voltage swing without breakdown |
| RDS(on) (typ @ 10 V) | 12 mΩ - Enables ≤2.1 W conduction loss at 170 A ID |
| ID (cont @ TC=100°C) | 170 A - Sustains continuous PDP sustain current at elevated case temperatures |
| Qg (typ) | 71 nC - Supports fast turn-on with moderate gate drive power (e.g., <1.5 W at 20 kHz) |
| EPULSE (max @ TC=100°C) | 120 µJ - Limits single-pulse avalanche energy to protect against transient overvoltage |
| tJ (max) | 175°C - Allows reliable operation in thermally constrained PDP module enclosures |
| Ciss (typ) | 4530 pF - Defines input capacitance for gate driver sizing and EMI filtering |
Pinout & Package
IRFS4228TRLPBF is housed in a surface-mount D2PAK-3L (TO-263-3) package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal transfer. The package measures 10.16 mm × 15.37 mm × 4.83 mm and supports solder reflow per JEDEC J-STD-020.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 10 V logic-level drive; threshold voltage 3.0–5.0 V ensures compatibility with standard PWM controllers |
| D (Drain) | High-side power output | Connected to PDP sustain bus; electrically tied to exposed copper pad for low-inductance, high-current return path |
| S (Source) | Power return / reference node | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive and current sensing; internal source inductance 7.5 nH affects di/dt during switching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low EPULSE rating | ≤120 µJ at TC = 100°C - Reduces risk of thermal runaway during unclamped inductive transients in PDP sustain circuits |
| Repetitive avalanche capability | Rated for 180 V VDS(Avalanche) - Enables reliable operation without external snubbers in energy recovery flyback paths |
| Fast switching transitions | tr = 59 ns, tf = 33 ns - Minimizes switching losses in high-frequency (≥100 kHz) PDP sustain waveforms |
| High peak current rating | IDM = 300 A - Supports short-duration surge currents during PDP cell addressing and reset phases |
| Body diode optimization | Qrr = 230–350 nC, trr = 76–110 ns - Reduces reverse recovery losses and EMI in bidirectional energy transfer stages |
Applications
| PDP Sustain Driver | Energy Recovery Circuit |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current, high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW48N60M2 | 600 V VDS, 48 A ID, TO-247 package, higher RDS(on) (65 mΩ) | Designed for SMPS and motor drives, not PDP-specific | Use only if higher voltage rating and lower current demand justify trade-off in conduction loss and thermal footprint |
| IXFH50N60P | 600 V VDS, 50 A ID, TO-247, 0.12 Ω RDS(on), no specified EPULSE | Targeted at industrial inverters; lacks PDP-optimized avalanche and pulse energy specs | Not recommended for PDP sustain due to insufficient peak current (50 A vs. 170 A) and missing low-EPULSE validation |
Compared with STW48N60M2 and IXFH50N60P, IRFS4228TRLPBF delivers uniquely low RDS(on) and validated EPULSE performance at 150 V, making it irreplaceable in high-repetition-rate PDP sustain stages where thermal margin and transient robustness are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-to-source voltage for IRFS4228TRLPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±30 V. Operation beyond ±20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable switching, gate drive should be limited to 10–15 V with fast edge rates (<10 ns) and series gate resistance (2.5–5.1 Ω) to suppress ringing and limit peak current during turn-on.
Does IRFS4228TRLPBF require a heatsink in PDP sustain applications?
Yes - even with its 0.45°C/W RθJC, sustained 170 A operation generates >20 W conduction loss. A low-thermal-resistance heatsink (≤1.5°C/W ambient-to-sink) and forced airflow are required to maintain TJ ≤150°C under worst-case duty cycle and ambient conditions.
Can IRFS4228TRLPBF replace IRFSL4228PbF in existing designs?
Yes - IRFS4228TRLPBF is the tape-and-reel version of IRFSL4228PbF (same die, same D2PAK-3L package, identical electrical specs). Pinout, thermal behavior, and switching characteristics are fully interchangeable; only packaging format differs (reel vs. tube).
Is the body diode suitable for freewheeling in energy recovery circuits?
Yes - the integrated body diode is characterized for 83 A continuous and 330 A pulsed conduction, with trr = 76–110 ns and Qrr = 230–350 nC. Its soft recovery profile minimizes voltage overshoot and EMI when used in resonant recovery paths with controlled di/dt.
