Product details
Overview
IRLL024Z from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode HEXFET® Power MOSFET in SOT-223 package, rated for 55V VDSS, 5.0A continuous drain current at 25°C, and 60mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10V. It features 150°C maximum junction temperature, fast switching (tr = 33ns, tf = 15ns), and 100% production-tested repetitive avalanche capability up to Tjmax, making it suitable for DC-DC converters, motor control, and load switching in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRLL024Z datasheet, IRLL024Z pinout, IRLL024Z application, or IRLL024Z equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance per silicon area, thermal robustness under pulsed loads, body diode recovery performance (trr = 15–23ns, Qrr = 9.1–14nC), and PCB-mount thermal resistance (RθJA = 45°C/W on copper board).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs advanced planar processing to minimize conduction loss while maintaining high avalanche ruggedness. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 1.0–3.0V) enables reliable turn-on with standard logic-level drivers, and its transconductance (gfs = 7.5S typ.) supports stable gain in linear-mode operation.
The device integrates a monolithic body diode with VSD ≤ 1.3V at 3.0A and exhibits controlled reverse recovery behavior-critical for minimizing switching losses and EMI in hard-switched topologies. Ciss = 380pF and Coss(eff) = 93pF further define its high-frequency gate drive requirements and snubber design constraints.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 55V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines safe operating range in 24V/48V bus applications. |
| RDS(on) | 60mΩ max @ VGS = 10V - Directly determines I²R conduction loss; yields ≤1.5W dissipation at 5.0A DC. |
| ID (continuous) | 5.0A @ TA = 25°C - Usable DC current with adequate heatsinking on FR-4; derates to 4.0A at 70°C ambient. |
| tr/tf | 33ns / 15ns - Fast edge rates enable >500kHz switching without excessive gate drive power or shoot-through risk. |
| EAS | 38mJ (tested) - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche energy; supports unclamped inductive turn-off in relay/motor drivers. |
| RθJA | 45°C/W (copper board) - Thermal impedance sets junction rise above ambient; allows ~105°C Tj at 2.8W dissipation. |
| Qg | 7.0–11nC - Total gate charge magnitude dictates minimum driver current and switching time trade-offs. |
Pinout & Package
IRLL024Z is housed in a surface-mount SOT-223 package with three leads: Drain (tab), Source (pin 1), and Gate (pin 2). The exposed drain tab provides low-inductance, high-current path and serves as primary thermal interface to PCB copper.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main high-side current path | Electrically and thermally connected to PCB copper pour; requires solder mask opening for optimal thermal transfer. |
| Source (Pin 1) | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-impedance return path; critical for stable gate control and accurate current monitoring in high-side configurations. |
| Gate (Pin 2) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <11nC charge; sensitive to ESD and ringing-requires local RC snubber if driven by long traces. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 60mΩ max at 10V gate drive reduces conduction loss by ≥30% vs. legacy SOT-223 MOSFETs in 5A-class loads. |
| 150°C junction rating | Enables operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without forced air cooling. |
| Fast switching speed | 33ns rise + 15ns fall time minimizes transition loss in PWM-controlled buck regulators and half-bridge inverters. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Validated for repeated unclamped inductive switching up to Tjmax, eliminating need for external clamping diodes in solenoid drivers. |
| Lead-free construction | RoHS-compliant SOT-223 package meets IPC-J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) for standard reflow. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Driver |
|---|---|

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side synchronous rectifier switch operating at 300–500kHz with gate drive referenced to input rail. Use Value: 60mΩ RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.5W at 5A, while fast tr/tf maintains efficiency >92% across 20–100% load range. | Use Scenario: H-bridge leg for 24V brushed motors in automated gate actuators and HVAC dampers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switching element handling bidirectional current up to 5A with integrated body diode freewheeling.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| DMN3020LSD-13 | RDS(on) = 20mΩ @ 4.5V, but rated only to 30V VDSS; smaller SOT-23 package limits thermal capacity. | Better for low-voltage (<24V), space-constrained designs; unsuitable for 48V bus or high-temperature ambient. | Select when gate drive is limited to 4.5V and peak voltage remains ≤30V-avoid in industrial 48V systems. |
| IRLML6344TRPBF | RDS(on) = 32mΩ @ 4.5V, 30V VDSS, SOT-23 package; lower Qg (4.4nC) but no avalanche rating. | Optimized for battery-powered portable devices with tight gate drive budgets; lacks avalanche ruggedness for inductive loads. | Prefer for consumer electronics with 3.3V/5V logic drive and non-inductive loads; not recommended for motor or relay control. |
Compared with DMN3020LSD-13 and IRLML6344TRPBF, IRLL024Z uniquely balances 55V blocking, 60mΩ on-resistance, full avalanche rating, and SOT-223 thermal capability-making it the only option among the three qualified for 48V industrial switching with reliability-critical inductive loads.

FAQ
Is IRLL024Z suitable for 48V automotive applications?
No-while rated for 55V VDSS, IRLL024Z is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks automotive-grade screening, transient immunity, and extended temperature validation beyond 150°C junction. It is intended for industrial and commercial power systems, not automotive ECUs or body electronics.
What is the maximum continuous current at 85°C ambient?
At TA = 85°C, the linear derating factor of 1.0W/°C reduces allowable power dissipation from 2.8W (at 25°C) to 0.8W. With RDS(on) = 60mΩ, this corresponds to a maximum continuous ID ≈ 3.66A-verified by Fig. 9 in the datasheet showing 3.7A at 85°C ambient.
Does IRLL024Z require a gate resistor for stability?
Yes-a series gate resistor (typically 10–47Ω) is recommended to dampen parasitic oscillation caused by trace inductance interacting with Qgd = 4.0nC. Without it, ringing can exceed VGS = ±16V absolute maximum and cause erratic switching or gate oxide stress.
Can IRLL024Z be used in linear (analog) mode?
Yes-the device is characterized for linear operation with specified gfs = 7.5S and VGS(th) = 1.0–3.0V. However, SOA limitations (Fig. 8) restrict safe linear use to ≤1.5A at VDS = 20V with active heatsinking; sustained operation requires strict thermal monitoring.
