Product details
Overview
IRFZ44ESTRRPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 60V, 48A N-channel enhancement-mode surface-mount power MOSFET in D2PAK package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.023Ω at VGS = 10V, 192A pulsed drain current, and full avalanche rating. It serves as a high-efficiency main switch in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and UPS inverters operating up to 175°C junction temperature.
For engineers reviewing the IRFZ44ESTRRPBF datasheet, IRFZ44ESTRRPBF pinout, IRFZ44ESTRRPBF application, or IRFZ44ESTRRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.023Ω on-resistance at 10V gate drive, 220mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, 60ns rise time, and D2PAK thermal performance with 1.4°C/W junction-to-case resistance - critical for high-current switching reliability.
Technical Context
This HEXFET® device uses fifth-generation silicon processing to achieve low RDS(on) per die area while maintaining fast switching (tr = 60ns, tf = 70ns) and robust avalanche capability (EAS = 220mJ). Its gate charge profile (Qg = 60nC, Qgd = 23nC) supports efficient 10V gate drive in hard-switched topologies.
The integrated body diode exhibits trr = 69–104ns and Qrr = 177–266nC under 29A forward current, enabling moderate-frequency synchronous rectification. Thermal design leverages the D2PAK's 1.4°C/W RθJC and low-profile mounting for PCB-constrained power stages.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; sets upper limit for bus voltage in buck/boost converters. |
| RDS(on) | 0.023Ω @ VGS = 10V, ID = 29A - Directly determines conduction loss (Pcond = I² × 0.023) in continuous high-current operation. |
| ID (TC = 25°C) | 48A - Continuous safe operating current with heatsink; defines minimum trace width and copper area needed on PCB. |
| EAS | 220mJ - Energy-handling capacity during single inductive switching events; enables reliable operation without snubbers in flyback or motor phase-legs. |
| tr/tf | 60ns/70ns - Rise/fall times at VDD = 30V, ID = 29A, RG = 15Ω; constrains maximum practical switching frequency before switching loss dominates. |
| RθJC | 1.4°C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance; allows direct calculation of case temperature rise (ΔT = Pdiss × 1.4) for thermal interface design. |
| Qg | 60nC - Total gate charge required for full turn-on; determines driver current requirement (Idrive ≥ Qg/ton) and gate resistor sizing. |
Pinout & Package
IRFZ44ESTRRPBF is housed in a surface-mount D2PAK (TO-263) package with three terminals: Drain (tab), Source (pin 2), and Gate (pin 1). The exposed drain pad provides low-inductance, high-current path and primary thermal conduction to the PCB copper pour.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main high-side current path and thermal interface | Electrically connected to PCB copper pour; carries full load current and dissipates >95% of heat; requires solder mask opening and thermal vias. |
| Source (Pin 2) | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-inductance return path for gate loop; used for Kelvin source connection in precision current sensing or active Miller clamp circuits. |
| Gate (Pin 1) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <60nC charge; sensitive to ringing; must be routed away from drain traces to minimize capacitive coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fully avalanche rated | 220mJ single-pulse energy tolerance eliminates need for external clamping in inductive load switching. |
| Low RDS(on) | 0.023Ω reduces conduction losses by >30% vs. legacy 60V MOSFETs at 30A, improving efficiency in 12V–48V systems. |
| D2PAK surface-mount package | Enables automated assembly while delivering 110W power dissipation and 1.4°C/W thermal resistance - superior to TO-220 in space-constrained designs. |
| Fast switching speed | 60ns rise time supports >100kHz PWM in DC-DC converters without excessive gate drive power or EMI filtering overhead. |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant "PbF" suffix confirms exemption-free lead-free plating and solderability per J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Drive |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 48V input to 12V/20A output step-down converter in telecom power shelf. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side synchronous rectifier switch operating at 200kHz with 10V gate drive. Use Value: 0.023Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.0W at full load, enabling natural convection cooling without heatsink. | Use Scenario: H-bridge driver for 24V, 15A brushed motor in industrial actuator. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switching element handling bidirectional current with body diode freewheeling. Use Value: 220mJ avalanche rating absorbs inductive kickback during PWM dead-time, preventing voltage overshoot beyond 60V. |
| Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) | LED Constant-Current Driver |
Use Scenario: Inverter stage converting 36V battery to 120VAC via full-bridge topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching transistor in half-bridge leg, switching at 50kHz with 15V gate drive. Use Value: 192A pulsed current rating supports peak surge currents during AC waveform zero-crossing transitions. | Use Scenario: Primary switch in 48V input, 350mA constant-current LED driver for street lighting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PWM-controlled current regulator using source-sense feedback. Use Value: 1.4°C/W RθJC enables stable 175°C junction operation with minimal PCB copper, reducing BOM cost vs. TO-247 alternatives. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP60NF06 | RDS(on) = 0.018Ω, but TO-220 package; higher RθJA (62°C/W vs. D2PAK's 1.4°C/W RθJC) | Requires external heatsink; unsuitable for ultra-thin or high-power-density layouts. | Choose when board space permits discrete heatsink mounting and lower on-resistance justifies thermal overhead. |
| IXTP50N065 | 65V rating, RDS(on) = 0.015Ω, TO-220 package; no avalanche rating specified in datasheet | Lacks documented EAS; not recommended for inductive loads without snubber networks. | Prefer only in resistive or capacitive switching applications where avalanche stress is absent. |
Compared with STP60NF06 and IXTP50N065, IRFZ44ESTRRPBF uniquely combines D2PAK surface-mount integration, 220mJ avalanche robustness, and 0.023Ω on-resistance - making it optimal for compact, high-reliability 60V switching where thermal path control and inductive fault tolerance are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-to-source voltage for IRFZ44ESTRRPBF?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20V. Operation above +15V or below –10V risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable 10V logic-level drive, use a gate driver with tight voltage regulation and transient suppression, especially in noisy motor drive environments.
Can IRFZ44ESTRRPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) (normalized resistance increases with junction temperature) enables inherent current sharing. Use matched gate resistors (≤1Ω difference), symmetrical PCB layout, and shared thermal plane to ensure balanced conduction between paralleled devices.
Is the D2PAK package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - the "PbF" suffix confirms full compliance with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and exemption-free lead-free plating. The device meets J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 3 and supports standard reflow profiles up to 260°C peak.
What is the typical reverse recovery time of the body diode?
The body diode's reverse recovery time (trr) is 69ns (typical) and 104ns (max) at TJ = 25°C, IF = 29A, and di/dt = 100A/µs. This enables use in moderate-frequency freewheeling paths but requires careful layout to minimize dv/dt-induced shoot-through in synchronous rectifiers.
