Product details
Overview
IRLB3036PBF from Infineon Technologies is a logic-level N-channel HEXFET Power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for 60V VDS, 1.9 mΩ typical RDS(on) at 4.5V VGS, and 195A package-limited continuous drain current. It serves as a high-current, low-loss power switch in hard-switched DC-DC converters and synchronous rectifiers.
For engineers reviewing the IRLB3036PBF datasheet, IRLB3036PBF pinout, IRLB3036PBF application, or IRLB3036PBF equivalent, key selection criteria include its 4.5V gate drive compatibility, 1100 nC total gate charge, 1020 pF output capacitance, robust 1100 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, and enhanced body diode dI/dt capability up to 430 A/µs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon-gate technology optimized for logic-level gate drive (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.5 V), enabling direct interfacing with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting. Its low RDS(on) × Qg product (≈2.1 µΩ·nC) supports high-frequency switching up to 500 kHz in SMPS topologies.
The device integrates an intrinsic fast-recovery body diode with trr = 62 ns (TJ = 25°C), Qrr = 310 nC, and IRRM = 4.4 A - validated for unclamped inductive switching and synchronous rectification in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 48 V bus systems and industrial 24–48 V input SMPS. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 1.9 mΩ @ 4.5 V VGS - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 165 A, critical for high-efficiency synchronous rectification. |
| ID (Package) | 195 A @ TC = 25°C - Defined by lead-frame thermal limits; requires heatsink mounting for sustained operation. |
| Qg | 91–140 nC - Gate drive energy demand dictates minimum gate driver peak current ≥3 A for ≤100 ns turn-on. |
| EAS | 1100 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche ruggedness supports reliable operation under inductive load transients and startup surges. |
| trr | 62 ns - Fast body diode recovery minimizes commutation losses and prevents shoot-through in half-bridge configurations. |
| RθJC | 0.40 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables 195 A operation with case temperature ≤100°C using standard TO-220 heatsinks. |
Pinout & Package
IRLB3036PBF uses a 3-pin TO-220AB package with tab-connected Drain. The plastic body provides electrical isolation between tab and leads; mounting screw must be insulated unless Drain is referenced to heatsink potential.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Lead 1 (Left) | Source | Main current return path; connects to ground or low-side reference; bonded to internal source metallization. |
| Lead 2 (Center) | Gate | Control terminal; requires <2.5 V threshold for turn-on; sensitive to ESD; routed with low-inductance trace. |
| Lead 3 (Right) | Drain | High-current power input/output; electrically connected to metal tab; must be isolated from heatsink unless system common. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at 4.5 V VGS, eliminating need for gate driver ICs in 5 V MCU-controlled motor drives. |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) × Qg | 2.1 µΩ·nC - Balances switching loss and conduction loss for optimal efficiency in 100–500 kHz hard-switched converters. |
| Enhanced body diode dI/dt rating | 430 A/µs - Supports reliable reverse recovery in high-di/dt synchronous rectifier applications without snubbers. |
| Full avalanche characterization | 1100 mJ EAS and 165 A IAR - Validated for unclamped inductive switching; no derating required in properly designed circuits. |
| Lead-free TO-220AB | RoHS-compliant packaging with tin-plated leads; compatible with standard wave-soldering profiles (≤300°C, 10 s). |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STL220N6F7 | 60 V, 1.7 mΩ @ 4.5 V, 220 A package limit, but higher Qg (150 nC) and no published avalanche energy rating. | Lacks documented EAS validation; unsuitable for unclamped inductive loads without external clamping. | Prefer when maximum continuous current >200 A is required and avalanche stress is absent. |
| IXFH180N06T2 | 60 V, 2.0 mΩ @ 4.5 V, 180 A package limit, lower Qg (75 nC), but TO-247 package increases PCB area and thermal interface complexity. | TO-247 footprint requires redesign; superior dv/dt immunity but higher gate drive loop inductance risk. | Choose for higher reliability in high-noise industrial environments where TO-220 creepage is marginal. |
Compared with STL220N6F7 and IXFH180N06T2, IRLB3036PBF delivers the best balance of low gate charge, proven avalanche ruggedness, and TO-220AB manufacturability - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, high-current, high-reliability SMPS and motor drive designs.

FAQ
Is IRLB3036PBF suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With a gate threshold voltage range of 1.0–2.5 V and guaranteed enhancement at 4.5 V VGS, the IRLB3036PBF achieves full conduction when driven by 3.3 V logic with sufficient gate current (≥1 A peak). However, RDS(on) rises to ~2.8 mΩ at 3.3 V, so thermal design must account for +47% conduction loss versus 4.5 V operation.
What is the maximum safe continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?
At TC = 100°C, the continuous drain current is limited to 110 A per the SOA curve in Figure 9. This reflects thermal derating from the 195 A rating at 25°C, based on RθJC = 0.40 °C/W and TJ(max) = 175°C. Exceeding this current risks junction overheating even with ideal heatsinking.
Does IRLB3036PBF have a fully characterized body diode for synchronous rectification?
Yes. The datasheet specifies trr = 62 ns, Qrr = 310 nC, and IRRM = 4.4 A at TJ = 25°C, with full characterization across temperature (up to 125°C) and di/dt (up to 430 A/µs). These parameters are measured per JEDEC standards and validated for synchronous rectifier use in hard-switched topologies.
Can IRLB3036PBF be mounted directly to a copper heatsink without insulation?
No. The metal tab is internally connected to the Drain terminal. Mounting without electrical isolation creates a short if the heatsink is grounded or referenced to any other potential. Use insulating pads (e.g., mica or ceramic) and shoulder washers with non-conductive screws, or verify system-level grounding architecture before direct-mount installation.
