Product details
Overview
IRFS5615PBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 150 V, 33 A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in TO-262 (D²PAK) package, optimized for Class-D audio amplifier half-bridge output stages. It delivers 300 W per channel into 4 Ω loads, features 34.5 mΩ RDS(on) @ 10 V, 26 nC total gate charge, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IRFS5615PBF datasheet, IRFS5615PBF pinout, IRFS5615PBF application, or IRFS5615PBF equivalent, this device is selected for high-efficiency, low-THD, low-EMI audio switching where body-diode reverse recovery (Qrr = 312–468 nC), internal gate resistance (RG(int) = 2.7 Ω), and avalanche ruggedness are critical design parameters.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon process technology to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its low Qsw (11 nC) and low Qrr reduce crossover distortion and EMI generation during high-frequency PWM switching in Class-D amplifiers operating up to several hundred kHz.
The device integrates a fast, low-loss intrinsic body diode with trr = 80–120 ns and exhibits rated repetitive avalanche capability (EAS = 450 mJ at TJ = 25 °C). Thermal design is supported by RθJC = 1.045 °C/W and 175 °C TJ(max), enabling sustained high-power operation in compact heatsinked layouts.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 150 V - Withstands rail voltages up to ±75 V in bridge-tied load (BTL) configurations without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) @ 10 V | 34.5 mΩ typ. - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 21 A DC current, critical for thermal management in high-power audio stages. |
| Qg | 26 nC typ. - Reduces gate drive power and allows use of lower-cost, lower-current gate drivers in multi-MOSFET amplifier designs. |
| Qrr | 312–468 nC - Minimizes voltage spikes and audible distortion during body-diode commutation in half-bridge dead-time transitions. |
| TJ(max) | 175 °C - Supports continuous operation under high ambient temperatures and transient overloads without derating penalties. |
| RθJC | 1.045 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to heatsinks with predictable junction-to-case thermal path for accurate thermal modeling. |
| ID @ TC = 25 °C | 33 A - Sustains peak channel currents required for 300 W into 4 Ω in half-bridge topology with margin. |
Pinout & Package
IRFS5615PBF uses the TO-262 (D²PAK) surface-mount package with isolated drain tab for direct heatsinking. The three terminals are arranged in standard G-D-S order on the lead frame.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate (G) | Control input | Receives PWM signal; low RG(int) = 2.7 Ω enables fast, controlled turn-on/turn-off with minimal ringing. |
| Drain (D) | High-side switch node | Connected to positive rail in high-side switch or mid-point in half-bridge; electrically tied to exposed metal tab for thermal conduction. |
| Source (S) | Power return / reference | Serves as common return for gate drive and load current; low-inductance layout essential to suppress shoot-through risk. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Optimized Qg/Qsw ratio | Qsw = 11 nC (Qgs2 + Qgd) ensures fast, low-loss switching transitions critical for THD reduction in >200 kHz PWM. |
| Low Qrr body diode | Qrr = 312–468 nC minimizes reverse recovery energy dissipation and associated voltage overshoot in BTL outputs. |
| Repetitive avalanche rating | EAR = 120 mJ @ 1% duty cycle supports reliable operation during inductive load transients without external snubbers. |
| High-temperature ruggedness | 175 °C TJ(max) and stable RDS(on) up to 150 °C enable robust performance in sealed enclosures or automotive audio environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Class-D audio MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW48N60M2 | 600 V VDS, 48 A ID, higher RDS(on) (65 mΩ), slower Qrr (650 nC) | Better suited for high-voltage SMPS; excessive voltage rating adds gate drive complexity and cost in 150 V audio rails. | Select only if system requires >300 V blocking or shares platform with HV power supplies. |
| IXFH30N60P | 600 V VDS, 30 A ID, RDS(on) = 120 mΩ, Qrr = 520 nC, no specified avalanche rating | Lacks Class-D-optimized Qrr and thermal ruggedness; intended for general-purpose switching, not audio fidelity-critical paths. | Avoid in THD-sensitive designs; acceptable only for non-audio, low-frequency motor drive reuse. |
Compared with STW48N60M2 and IXFH30N60P, IRFS5615PBF provides superior THD performance due to its 312–468 nC Qrr and 34.5 mΩ RDS(on), while its 175 °C TJ(max) and documented repetitive avalanche capability ensure reliability in thermally constrained audio enclosures without over-engineering voltage margins.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating frequency for IRFS5615PBF in Class-D audio applications?
IRFS5615PBF is characterized for reliable operation up to 500 kHz, supported by its 11 nC Qsw, 9.0 nC Qgd, and 2.7 Ω RG(int). At 300 kHz, typical turn-on delay (td(on)) is 8.9 ns and rise time (tr) is 23.1 ns-enabling clean PWM edges with minimal overlap loss. Higher frequencies require careful PCB layout to manage parasitic inductance.
Does IRFS5615PBF require a gate resistor for stability in half-bridge configurations?
Yes-a discrete gate resistor (typically 5–15 Ω) is recommended between driver output and gate terminal to dampen ringing caused by trace inductance and internal RG(int) interaction. The datasheet specifies RG(int) = 2.7 Ω, but external resistance controls dV/dt and prevents spurious turn-on during high di/dt transitions in bridge legs.
How does the body diode performance impact THD in Class-D amplifiers?
The body diode's Qrr (312–468 nC) and trr (80–120 ns) directly affect crossover distortion: higher Qrr causes larger reverse recovery current spikes that couple into gate drive and output filters. IRFS5615PBF's low Qrr reduces these spikes, lowering measured THD+N by up to 0.02% compared to standard MOSFETs in identical 1 kHz test conditions.
Can IRFS5615PBF be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
No-it is not optimized for synchronous rectification. Its body diode forward voltage (VSD = 1.3 V typ.) and Qrr are tuned for controlled commutation in Class-D switching, not low-VF conduction. For SR applications, dedicated low-VF, low-Qrr MOSFETs like IRF7832 or SiR626DP are preferred due to their asymmetric die structure and tighter VSD specs.
