Product details
Overview
IRFZ34SPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a 60 V, 30 A N-channel power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, optimized for high-efficiency switching in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and power supplies. It delivers 0.050 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, supports 175 °C operation, and features fast switching with 46 nC total gate charge.
For engineers reviewing the IRFZ34SPBF datasheet, IRFZ34SPBF pinout, IRFZ34SPBF application, or IRFZ34SPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 60 V VDS, 30 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, 1.7 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and suitability for high-current surface-mount power conversion designs.
Technical Context
This discrete N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET uses third-generation silicon processing to achieve low on-resistance per die area while maintaining rugged avalanche capability (200 mJ single-pulse). Its D2PAK package enables high-power dissipation (88 W at TC = 25 °C) and low internal connection resistance.
The device operates with ±20 V gate-source voltage rating, exhibits 2.0–4.0 V gate threshold voltage, and integrates a fast-recovery body diode (trr = 120–230 ns, Qrr = 700–1400 μC), supporting synchronous rectification and inductive load switching.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFZ44NPBF | 60 V VDS, 49 A ID, 0.028 Ω RDS(on), same D2PAK package | Higher current and lower RDS(on) but larger Qg (71 nC) increases gate drive demand | Preferred when conduction loss dominates and gate drive capability permits |
| STP30NF20 | 200 V VDS, 30 A ID, 0.055 Ω RDS(on), TO-220 package | Higher voltage rating but through-hole mounting and higher thermal resistance (2.5 °C/W) | Selected where 200 V blocking is required or legacy through-hole assembly is mandated |
Compared with IRFZ44NPBF and STP30NF20, the IRFZ34SPBF offers optimal balance of 60 V rating, 30 A capability, and 46 nC gate charge for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained surface-mount power switches-making it ideal for mid-power DC-DC and motor control where layout space and driver simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for IRFZ34SPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRFZ34SPBF has a continuous drain current rating of 21 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D2PAK package and ensures safe operation under sustained high-temperature conditions without exceeding the 175 °C maximum junction temperature. The IRFZ34SPBF maintains reliable conduction performance across industrial temperature ranges.
Does IRFZ34SPBF support logic-level gate drive?
No, the IRFZ34SPBF is not a logic-level MOSFET. Its gate threshold voltage range is 2.0–4.0 V, but full enhancement requires VGS = 10 V to achieve the rated 0.050 Ω RDS(on). Driving the IRFZ34SPBF with only 3.3 V or 5 V will result in significantly higher on-resistance and excessive conduction loss. The IRFZ34SPBF must be paired with a dedicated gate driver or 10 V supply for optimal performance.
What is the avalanche energy rating of IRFZ34SPBF and how is it tested?
The IRFZ34SPBF is rated for 200 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) under test conditions of VDD = 25 V, starting TJ = 25 °C, L = 260 μH, Rg = 25 Ω, and IAS = 30 A. This rating confirms robustness against inductive switching transients in motor control and relay driving. The IRFZ34SPBF's specified EAS is validated per JEDEC standards and applies directly to unclamped inductive load conditions.
How does the body diode performance of IRFZ34SPBF compare to standard rectifiers?
The IRFZ34SPBF body diode has a forward voltage of 1.6 V at 30 A and 25 °C, with reverse recovery time of 120–230 ns and Qrr of 700–1400 μC. While slower and higher-VF than Schottky diodes, it eliminates need for external freewheeling diodes in half-bridge and synchronous rectifier circuits. The IRFZ34SPBF's integrated diode is optimized for controlled recovery in hard-switched topologies-not ultra-fast or soft-recovery applications.
Is IRFZ34SPBF RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the IRFZ34SPBF is lead (Pb)-free and RoHS-compliant per EU Directive 2011/65/EU. It meets Vishay's material categorization requirements for environmentally conscious manufacturing. The "PbF" suffix explicitly denotes lead-free termination, and the device is also halogen-free per Vishay specification 99912. The IRFZ34SPBF complies with both RoHS and halogen-free standards without performance trade-offs.
