Product details
Overview
IRFSL9N60APBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 600 V, 9.2 A N-channel power MOSFET in I2PAK (TO-262) package, featuring 0.75 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 49 nC total gate charge, and 290 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - designed for high-voltage, high-speed switching in offline SMPS main switch and active-clamped forward topologies.
For engineers reviewing the IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet, IRFSL9N60APBF pinout, IRFSL9N60APBF application, or IRFSL9N60APBF equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal performance data, body diode recovery characteristics (trr = 530–800 ns), and through-hole mounting guidance for reliable high-power design validation.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for ruggedness in repetitive and unclamped inductive switching. Its gate structure minimizes Qg/Qgd ratio (49 nC / 20 nC), enabling fast, low-loss turn-on/turn-off with controlled dv/dt (5.0 V/ns peak diode recovery rating).
The device integrates a co-packaged body diode with characterized reverse recovery (Qrr = 3.0–4.4 μC, trr = 530–800 ns) and forward voltage (VSD = 1.5 V at 9.2 A), supporting hard-switched topologies where diode conduction occurs during dead time.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP9NK60ZFP | 600 V, 8.5 A, RDS(on) = 0.75 Ω, Qg = 42 nC, TO-220FP package | Lower thermal resistance not available; smaller package limits power dissipation to 125 W | Preferred where space-constrained PCBs preclude I2PAK footprint but lower power (≤1.5 kW) suffices |
| IXFH9N60P | 600 V, 9.3 A, RDS(on) = 0.75 Ω, Qg = 52 nC, TO-247AC package | Higher Qg increases gate drive loss; TO-247 offers superior heatsinking but larger board area | Chosen when maximum thermal performance is required and mechanical clearance permits TO-247 mounting |
Compared with STP9NK60ZFP and IXFH9N60P, the IRFSL9N60APBF provides optimal balance of 170 W power handling, 0.75 °C/W RthJC, and I2PAK through-hole reliability - making it ideal for industrial SMPS where thermal margin and assembly robustness outweigh ultra-low Qg or largest-package cooling.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFSL9N60APBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFSL9N60APBF supports 5.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the I2PAK package and ensures junction temperature remains within the -55 to +150 °C operating range. Designers must verify heatsink interface resistance and ambient airflow to maintain this rating in real-world operation. The IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet confirms this value under linear derating factor of 1.3 W/°C beyond 25 °C.
Does IRFSL9N60APBF have a fully characterized body diode, and what are its key recovery parameters?
Yes, the IRFSL9N60APBF includes a fully characterized intrinsic body diode with published reverse recovery time (trr = 530–800 ns), reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 3.0–4.4 μC), and forward voltage (VSD = 1.5 V at 9.2 A). These parameters are measured at TJ = 25 °C with di/dt = 100 A/μs and are essential for dead-time optimization and EMI prediction in hard-switched converters. The IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet explicitly lists these values in the Drain-Source Body Diode Characteristics section.
Is IRFSL9N60APBF suitable for surface-mount assembly, or is it strictly through-hole?
The IRFSL9N60APBF is designated for through-hole application only, as confirmed in the Applications section of the official datasheet. Its I2PAK (TO-262) package features bent leads intended for wave soldering or hand-soldering into plated-through holes, not reflow-compatible gull-wing or J-lead configurations. Attempting surface-mount assembly would compromise mechanical integrity, thermal path, and long-term reliability. The IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet states "This device is only for through-hole application" without qualification.
What is the gate-source threshold voltage range for IRFSL9N60APBF, and how does it affect drive circuit design?
The gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) for IRFSL9N60APBF is specified from 2.0 V to 4.0 V at TJ = 25 °C, meaning the device begins conducting at ≥2.0 V but achieves full enhancement only above ~4.0 V. This range necessitates a minimum 10 V gate drive to ensure low RDS(on) (0.75 Ω) and avoid linear-mode operation. Drive circuits must deliver clean, noise-immune 10–15 V pulses with sufficient current to charge 49 nC total gate charge within nanoseconds. The IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet defines this parameter under VDS = VGS, ID = 250 μA test conditions.
How does the avalanche energy rating of IRFSL9N60APBF compare to similar 600 V MOSFETs, and what does it mean for circuit protection?
The IRFSL9N60APBF delivers 290 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) and 17 mJ repetitive avalanche energy (EAR), exceeding typical industry benchmarks for 600 V devices (e.g., 150–220 mJ EAS). This rating validates operation under unclamped inductive switching events without external snubbers - critical in active-clamped forward and LLC resonant converters. It means the IRFSL9N60APBF can absorb transient energy from leakage inductance spikes without failure, provided pulse width and duty cycle remain within datasheet limits. The IRFSL9N60APBF datasheet confirms EAS testing per note b (L = 6.8 mH, IAS = 9.2 A).
