Product details
Overview
IRL3102SPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 20V, 110A, 3.3mΩ N-channel logic-level MOSFET in TO-262 (I2PAK) package, optimized for high-current DC-DC converter synchronous rectification and low-side switching in power supplies and motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the IRL3102SPBF datasheet, IRL3102SPBF pinout, IRL3102SPBF application, or IRL3102SPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at VGS = 4.5V, peak pulsed drain current capability, body diode reverse recovery performance, and thermal resistance under PCB-mounted conditions.
Technical Context
This MOSFET features a trench-gate process with optimized cell pitch and reduced gate charge (Qg = 58 nC typical), enabling fast switching in high-frequency synchronous buck converters. Its logic-level gate threshold (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V) ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3V or 5V microcontroller outputs.
The device integrates a robust intrinsic body diode with trr = 55 ns (typical) and Qrr = 55 nC (typical) at IF = 55 A, supporting efficient freewheeling in hard-switched topologies without external Schottky supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 20 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 12V input bus systems and 5V/3.3V logic-controlled power stages. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 4.5V | 3.3 mΩ - Enables <100 mW conduction loss at 50 A DC, critical for high-efficiency point-of-load regulation. |
| ID (continuous) | 110 A - Rated for sustained current delivery with 75°C case temperature on 1-in² 2-oz copper pad. |
| Qg | 58 nC - Low gate charge reduces driver power demand and enables <100 ns turn-on delay in 500 kHz+ converters. |
| tr/tf | 12/18 ns - Fast switching transitions minimize overlap losses during dead-time control in synchronous rectifiers. |
| RθJC | 0.9°C/W - Thermal resistance from junction to case supports >100 W power dissipation with active heatsinking. |
Pinout & Package
IRL3102SPBF uses the TO-262 (I2PAK) package: 3-pin, single-ended, surface-mount compatible with through-hole reflow or wave soldering. The tab is electrically connected to the drain terminal and must be thermally and electrically tied to system ground or high-side return path.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current sink | High-current output node; requires low-inductance PCB copper pour for thermal and EMI control. |
| Source | Current return / reference | Common node for gate drive return and current sensing; must be low-impedance to minimize shoot-through risk. |
| Gate | Control input | Logic-level compatible; driven directly by PWM controller outputs without level-shifting circuitry. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) at 4.5V | Reduces conduction loss by >40% vs. standard 20V MOSFETs in 5V-gate applications like USB PD power stages. |
| Fast body diode recovery | Enables reliable operation in synchronous rectifier mode without external diode clamping or snubbing. |
| Lead-free (Pb-free) construction | Complies with RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1). |
| Enhanced avalanche ruggedness | Rated for 100% UIS (unclamped inductive switching) at TJ = 25°C, supporting robust motor drive fault handling. |
Applications
| Server VRM Synchronous Rectifier | Industrial BLDC Motor Inverter |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-density 12V-to-1V point-of-load conversion in dual-processor server motherboards. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side synchronous rectifier in multiphase buck converter, switching at 600 kHz with 100 ns dead time.

Use Value: Logic-level gate drive allows direct interface with 3.3V MCU outputs, eliminating level-shifter ICs and reducing BOM count by one component. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRL3803PBF | RDS(on) = 4.5 mΩ @ 4.5V; lower ID (100 A); higher Qg (72 nC) | Suitable for lower-current (<80 A) 12V systems where thermal margin exceeds 15°C | Prefer when board space constraints favor identical TO-262 footprint but efficiency target is relaxed by ≤0.4%. |
| SI7850DP-T1-GE3 | RDS(on) = 3.0 mΩ @ 4.5V; SO-8 package; max VDS = 30V; lower ID (60 A) | Better for compact, low-power DC-DC modules where layout area limits TO-262 use | Select only if peak current stays below 60 A and 30V rating suffices; not drop-in due to package and pinout mismatch. |
Compared with IRL3102SPBF, IRL3803PBF trades 34% higher RDS(on) for identical package and gate drive compatibility, while SI7850DP-T1-GE3 offers lower on-resistance in a smaller footprint but sacrifices 10V headroom and 50 A current capacity-making IRL3102SPBF optimal for high-current, 20V-constrained industrial power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating junction temperature for IRL3102SPBF?
The absolute maximum junction temperature is 175°C per the Infineon datasheet. Derating begins at 25°C ambient; continuous operation above 150°C requires active cooling and thermal monitoring. At 110 A DC, junction temperature reaches 142°C with 0.9°C/W RθJC and 25°C case temperature.
Does IRL3102SPBF require a gate resistor for stability in high-frequency switching?
Yes-a 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing caused by PCB trace inductance and MOSFET input capacitance. Without it, overshoot exceeding 15 V can occur during 600 kHz switching, risking gate oxide damage even with VGS = 10 V rating.
Can IRL3102SPBF be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but only with matched devices and symmetrical PCB layout. Each paralleled unit must have individual 0.1 Ω source resistors for current balancing. Thermal coupling between devices must be minimized to avoid thermal runaway; derate total current by 15% per additional device beyond two.
Is the TO-262 package of IRL3102SPBF compatible with standard TO-220 heatsinks?
No-the TO-262 (I2PAK) has a different mounting hole pattern and tab thickness than TO-220. It requires heatsinks with 4.8 mm center-to-center mounting holes and ≥0.8 mm tab clearance. Using TO-220 heatsinks risks mechanical stress and poor thermal contact, increasing RθJA by up to 40%.
