Product details
Overview
IRFS7537TRLPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 60 V, 173 A N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in D2-Pak (TO-263) package, optimized for high-current synchronous rectification and half/full-bridge motor drive topologies. It delivers 2.75 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, supports 700 A pulsed drain current, and features enhanced body diode dV/dt (10 V/ns) and dI/dt capability for robust BLDC and brushed motor control in battery-powered inverters.
For engineers reviewing the IRFS7537TRLPBF datasheet, IRFS7537TRLPBF pinout, IRFS7537TRLPBF application, or IRFS7537TRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V VDS, 2.75 mΩ RDS(on), 142 nC total gate charge, 100 A continuous ID at TC = 100 °C, and avalanche-rated 270 mJ single-pulse energy - critical for resonant converters and OR-ing power switches.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon technology with optimized cell pitch and trench-assisted source metallization to achieve low RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit (≈390 Ω·nC). Its gate threshold voltage (2.1–3.7 V) enables reliable 5 V logic-level drive while maintaining noise immunity, and the fully characterized Ciss/Coss/Crss (7020/640/395 pF) supports precise switching loss modeling in hard-switched DC/DC stages.
The device integrates a fast, soft-recovery body diode with 39 ns trr, 46 nC Qrr, and 2.1 A IRRM at 25 °C - enabling efficient synchronous rectification without external Schottky diodes in 48 V telecom and server PSUs. Thermal resistance RθJC = 0.65 °C/W ensures stable operation up to 175 °C junction temperature under forced-air cooling.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Supports 48 V nominal bus systems with 20 % overvoltage margin for transient suppression in industrial motor drives. |
| RDS(on) max | 3.30 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 100 A - Enables ≤0.33 W conduction loss at 100 A, reducing heatsink requirements in high-power inverters. |
| ID cont | 173 A @ TC = 25 °C - Sustains peak load currents in 3 kW BLDC controllers without derating when mounted on 1"² FR-4 PCB. |
| Qg | 142 nC typ. - Determines gate driver power demand; requires ≥2 A peak drive capability for <100 ns turn-on in 100 kHz PWM stages. |
| EAS | 270 mJ single-pulse - Withstands unclamped inductive switching events in half-bridge leg shoot-through scenarios up to L = 54 µH. |
| tr/tf | 105/84 ns - Enables clean 100–200 kHz switching in LLC resonant converters with minimal overlap loss. |
| VSD | 1.2 V @ IS = 100 A - Low forward drop reduces reverse conduction loss during dead-time in synchronous buck regulators. |
Pinout & Package
IRFS7537TRLPBF uses the D2-Pak (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance. The 3-pin configuration supports high-current PCB routing with low-inductance source return paths.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; accepts 0–20 V VGS; 2.0 Ω internal gate resistance limits ringing in high-dV/dt environments. |
| Pin 2 (D) | Drain | Main power output node; electrically connected to exposed copper tab - must be soldered to large copper pour for thermal management. |
| Pin 3 (S) | Source | Power return path and reference for gate drive; low-inductance layout essential to minimize VGS instability during fast switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Enhanced body diode dV/dt capability | 10 V/ns at TJ = 175 °C - Prevents false turn-on during high-speed commutation in full-bridge inverters driving inductive loads. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-current N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | RDS(on) = 2.3 mΩ @ 10 V but higher Qg = 175 nC; TO-220FP package with RθJC = 1.0 °C/W. | Better conduction loss but slower switching; suited for <50 kHz fixed-frequency converters where thermal mass dominates. | Select when lower steady-state loss outweighs gate drive complexity and thermal interface constraints. |
| IXFH70N60X3 | 600 V rating, RDS(on) = 12.5 mΩ, Qg = 110 nC; Superjunction construction with lower Coss but higher VGS(th) = 3.5–5.5 V. | Designed for 400 V bus systems; unsuitable for 48 V BLDC due to excessive conduction loss and gate drive mismatch. | Reject for 60 V applications - higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by 4.5× and compromises efficiency below 100 V bus. |
Compared with STL220N6F7, IRFS7537TRLPBF offers superior thermal resistance (0.65 vs. 1.0 °C/W) and lower gate charge for faster switching, while IXFH70N60X3's 600 V rating introduces unnecessary conduction penalty in 60 V designs - making IRFS7537TRLPBF optimal for compact, high-efficiency 48 V motor and power systems.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for IRFS7537TRLPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V per the datasheet Absolute Maximum Ratings table. Operation beyond ±15 V risks irreversible gate oxide damage, especially at elevated temperatures. For robust design, limit gate drive to +12 V to +15 V for turn-on and –5 V for active miller clamping during switching transitions.
Can IRFS7537TRLPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient (RDS(on) increases with junction temperature) enables natural current sharing. Layout must ensure matched gate loop inductance and symmetrical source routing; use Kelvin source connections and individual 10 Ω gate resistors to suppress oscillation between paralleled devices.
Does IRFS7537TRLPBF require a gate resistor for EMI control?
Yes - a 2.7 Ω series gate resistor is specified in the Dynamic Electrical Characteristics table for switching time measurements. This value balances EMI suppression (by limiting di/dt) against switching loss; values below 2 Ω increase radiated emissions, while above 5 Ω raises ton/toff and conduction loss in high-frequency operation.
What is the recommended PCB footprint for thermal performance?
Per Application Note AN-994, mount the D2-Pak on ≥1"² (6.5 cm²) of 2-oz copper with ≥8 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.8 mm pitch) connecting the drain pad to inner ground planes. This achieves the rated RθJA = 40 °C/W and sustains 173 A continuous current at TC = 25 °C without exceeding 175 °C junction temperature.
