Product details
Overview
IRFU9110 from Vishay Siliconix is a P-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in straight-lead (through-hole) IPAK (TO-251) package, rated for -100 V drain-source voltage, 1.2 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = -10 V, and -3.1 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It delivers fast switching, repetitive avalanche capability, and robust dV/dt immunity for high-reliability DC-DC converter high-side switches and motor control H-bridge legs.
For engineers reviewing the IRFU9110 datasheet, IRFU9110 pinout, IRFU9110 application, or IRFU9110 equivalent, this page provides verified package mapping (IPAK/TO-251), confirmed terminal roles (G/D/S), thermal derating data (0.20 W/°C), avalanche energy rating (140 mJ single-pulse), and validated alternatives for P-channel high-voltage switching designs requiring through-hole mounting.
Technical Context
This device employs third-generation trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low gate charge (Qg = 8.7 nC) and minimized output capacitance (Coss = 94 pF), enabling efficient operation in hard-switched topologies up to 100 kHz. Its -4.0 V gate threshold voltage ensures stable turn-off under noisy conditions while supporting standard -10 V gate drive.
The integrated body diode features 80–160 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 0.17–0.30 μC reverse recovery charge (Qrr), making it suitable for freewheeling paths where controlled diode conduction is required without external Schottky supplementation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar P-channel high-voltage switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFU9014 | -60 V VDS, 0.27 Ω RDS(on), 5.5 A ID - lower voltage, lower RDS(on), higher current | Optimized for 24–48 V systems; insufficient for 80 V bus applications requiring IRFU9110's -100 V rating | Select IRFU9014 only when operating voltage stays below 50 V and lower conduction loss is prioritized over voltage headroom |
| SiHFU9110-GE3 | Identical electrical specs and IPAK package; Pb-free/halogen-free construction per JEDEC J-STD-609 | No functional difference; differs only in RoHS compliance and traceability marking | Choose SiHFU9110-GE3 for new designs requiring lead-free assembly or export to EU/China markets |
Compared with IRFU9110, IRFU9014 offers better efficiency in low-voltage systems but lacks the -100 V rating needed for industrial 80 V inputs, while SiHFU9110-GE3 is a direct material-compliance variant with identical performance and pinout-no design changes required for migration.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRFU9110 at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFU9110 supports -2.0 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the IPAK package when mounted on standard PCBs without heatsinking. At higher ambient temperatures, designers must apply the linear derating factor of 0.20 W/°C to ensure junction temperature remains within -55 °C to +150 °C limits. The IRFU9110 datasheet (S26-0614, Rev. F) confirms this value under standard test conditions.
Does IRFU9110 have an integrated body diode, and what are its key parameters?
Yes, the IRFU9110 includes an integral body diode formed by the MOSFET's inherent p-n junction. Key parameters include -5.5 V forward voltage (VSD) at -3.1 A and 25 °C, 80–160 ns reverse recovery time (trr), and 0.17–0.30 μC reverse recovery charge (Qrr). These values are measured with IF = -4.0 A and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. The IRFU9110 body diode is rated for -3.1 A continuous conduction and supports freewheeling in H-bridge and synchronous rectifier applications.
Can IRFU9110 be used in avalanche mode, and what is its single-pulse energy rating?
Yes, the IRFU9110 is explicitly repetitive avalanche rated, with a single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) of 140 mJ under test conditions of VDD = -25 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 21 mH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = -3.1 A. This rating enables safe operation during inductive load switching transients without requiring external snubbers. The IRFU9110 datasheet (Figure 12c) shows EAS degrades predictably with increasing IAS, confirming design margin for real-world fault events.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for IRFU9110, and how does it affect drive requirements?
The IRFU9110 has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) range of -2.0 V to -4.0 V at ID = 250 μA, ensuring reliable turn-on with standard -10 V gate drive while maintaining noise immunity against spurious positive transients. This range allows compatibility with both dedicated gate drivers and microcontroller GPIOs with level-shifting. The IRFU9110's relatively high |VGS(th)| minimizes risk of accidental turn-on in noisy industrial environments, unlike logic-level variants that may activate with < -2.5 V.
Is IRFU9110 compatible with lead-free soldering processes, and what is the peak temperature limit?
Yes, the IRFU9110 is qualified for lead-free soldering with a peak temperature limit of 260 °C for 10 seconds, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This aligns with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) requirements for through-hole components. The IRFU9110's straight-lead IPAK construction maintains mechanical integrity under these thermal profiles, and Vishay recommends vapor phase or wave soldering per their application notes. Always verify board layout thermal mass matches the IRFU9110's recommended pad dimensions (Document 72594).
