Product details
Overview
IRLR014NPBF from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a 55 V, 10 A logic-level N-channel Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252) surface-mount package, featuring RDS(on) = 0.14 Ω @ VGS = 10 V and 0.21 Ω @ VGS = 4.5 V, fully avalanche-rated, and optimized for DC-DC converters, motor control, and load switching in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRLR014NPBF datasheet, IRLR014NPBF pinout, IRLR014NPBF application, or IRLR014NPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V), low RDS(on) at 4.5 V, fast switching (tr = 47 ns, tf = 23 ns), and rugged unclamped inductive switching capability (EAS = 35 mJ).
Technical Context
This fifth-generation HEXFET device uses advanced planar processing to minimize on-resistance per die area while maintaining high avalanche energy tolerance. Its gate charge profile (Qg = 7.9 nC, Qgd = 4.4 nC) supports efficient high-frequency PWM operation up to several hundred kHz.
The integrated body diode exhibits trr = 37–56 ns and Qrr = 48–71 nC under defined conditions (IF = 6 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs), enabling synchronous rectification and flyback recovery in non-isolated topologies without external Schottky supplementation.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLR2905PBF | RDS(on) = 0.055 Ω @ 10 V, higher ID (79 A), larger D-Pak variant | Higher current density; requires larger PCB copper area and gate drive strength | Preferred when >15 A continuous current or lower conduction loss dominates design priority |
| STP55NF06L | RDS(on) = 0.018 Ω @ 10 V, TO-220 package, VGS(th) = 1–2.5 V | Through-hole mounting; higher thermal mass but no exposed drain pad for SMT thermal optimization | Selected where manual assembly, legacy board compatibility, or higher single-pulse surge rating is required |
Compared with IRLR2905PBF and STP55NF06L, the IRLR014NPBF offers optimal balance of logic-level drivability, SMT thermal efficiency, and cost-effective 10 A capability-ideal for space-constrained industrial DC-DC and motor control modules where gate drive simplicity and board-level thermal management are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature and thermal resistance of IRLR014NPBF?
The IRLR014NPBF has a maximum operating junction temperature of +175°C and specified thermal resistances of RθJC = 5.3°C/W (junction-to-case) and RθJA = 50°C/W (case-to-ambient, PCB mount). These values assume standard 1 oz copper, 1 in² thermal pad layout per IRF application guidelines.
Does IRLR014NPBF require a gate resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes-a gate resistor is required to control dV/dt and prevent ringing. For typical 3.3 V/5 V MCU drive, a 10–22 Ω series resistor is recommended. With Qg = 7.9 nC and tr/tf < 50 ns, this provides stable switching while minimizing gate drive power dissipation.
Can IRLR014NPBF be used in synchronous rectification applications?
Yes-the integrated body diode has trr = 37–56 ns and Qrr = 48–71 nC at IF = 6 A, making it suitable for synchronous rectification in buck converters up to ~300 kHz. However, for >500 kHz or ultra-low-loss designs, a dedicated Schottky or GaN FET may offer lower Qrr.
Is IRLR014NPBF qualified for automotive applications?
No-IRLR014NPBF is an industrial-grade part. For automotive use, Infineon offers the AEC-Q101 qualified AUIRLR014N, which shares identical electrical specs but includes extended temperature screening, failure analysis protocols, and PPAP documentation support.
