Product details
Overview
IRL3803STRLPBF from Infineon Technologies is a 30V, 140A N-channel HEXFET Power MOSFET in TO-263 (D²PAK) package, featuring 3.3 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 170 W PD, and logic-level gate drive compatibility. It serves as a high-current synchronous rectifier or main switch in DC-DC converters for server VRMs.
For engineers reviewing the IRL3803STRLPBF datasheet, IRL3803STRLPBF pinout, IRL3803STRLPBF application, or IRL3803STRLPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 4.5 V, SOA under repetitive pulse conditions, thermal resistance RθJC, and gate charge Qg for high-frequency switching efficiency.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe cell technology with optimized gate oxide thickness to support 4.5 V logic-level turn-on while maintaining avalanche ruggedness. Its low gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V) enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry.
The device is characterized for operation up to TJ = 175 °C and features fully rated avalanche energy (EAS = 390 mJ), making it suitable for hard-switched topologies where transient overvoltage events occur during commutation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 30 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage for 12 V input bus applications |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 3.3 mΩ - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 20 A continuous drain current |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 4.5 V | 4.8 mΩ - Ensures full enhancement with 3.3 V logic drivers in POL converters |
| Qg | 85 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching transition time |
| RθJC | 0.85 °C/W - Defines junction-to-case thermal path efficiency with standard soldered heatsink interface |
| EAS | 390 mJ - Specifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling capability without failure |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-263 (D²PAK), surface-mount, copper leadframe with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate (G) | Control terminal | Receives logic-level voltage to modulate channel conductivity; requires <85 nC charge for full turn-on |
| Drain (D) | High-current output node | Connected to exposed metal tab; must be electrically and thermally tied to PCB ground plane |
| Source (S) | Reference node / return path | Serves as common reference for gate drive and load current return; defines VGS measurement point |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS = 4.5 V, eliminating need for gate driver ICs in 3.3 V control systems |
| Low RDS(on) | 3.3 mΩ at 10 V ensures <1.3 W conduction loss at 20 A, reducing heatsink requirements |
| Avalanche-rated | Specified EAS = 390 mJ supports reliable operation in non-zero-voltage-switching circuits |
| TO-263 thermal performance | RθJC = 0.85 °C/W enables >100 W power dissipation with moderate heatsinking |
Applications
| Server VRM High-Side Switch | Industrial DC-DC Converter |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF3803ZPBF | RDS(on) = 3.0 mΩ @ 10 V; higher Qg = 105 nC; TO-220 package | Limited to lower-frequency (<300 kHz) designs due to higher gate charge and inferior thermal interface | Select when board space permits TO-220 and thermal mass reduces peak TJ more than D²PAK solder joint can achieve |
| IPB033N04LGATMA1 | RDS(on) = 3.3 mΩ @ 10 V; 40 V VDS; PG-HSOF-8 package; 50% lower Qg | Requires gate driver with negative turn-off capability; not logic-level compatible at 3.3 V | Prefer for new designs targeting >1 MHz switching and requiring tighter gate control, provided driver supports bipolar gate bias |
Compared with IRL3803STRLPBF, IRF3803ZPBF trades higher thermal mass for reduced RDS(on) but sacrifices high-frequency efficiency, while IPB033N04LGATMA1 delivers superior switching performance at the cost of gate drive complexity and voltage derating.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRL3803STRLPBF at 100°C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 90 A at TC = 100 °C, derated linearly from 140 A at TC = 25 °C using the specified RDS(on) temperature coefficient and thermal resistance. This rating assumes proper PCB copper area and solder coverage on the exposed drain pad.
Does IRL3803STRLPBF require a gate resistor for stability in high-frequency switching?
Yes - a 5–10 Ω series gate resistor is recommended to dampen ringing caused by gate loop inductance and Miller capacitance interaction. Without it, overshoot exceeding 20 V may occur during fast turn-off, risking gate oxide damage despite the 20 V absolute maximum rating.
Can IRL3803STRLPBF be used in parallel configurations for higher current capacity?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) enables inherent current sharing. Parallel operation requires matched layout symmetry, identical gate drive paths, and thermal coupling via shared heatsink or copper pour to ensure balanced junction temperatures within ±5 °C.
Is IRL3803STRLPBF compliant with RoHS and halogen-free standards?
Yes - the "PBF" suffix confirms lead-free termination and RoHS compliance per Directive 2011/65/EU. The device also meets JEDEC JS709B halogen-free requirements, with chlorine and bromine content below 900 ppm each and total halogens under 1500 ppm.
