Product details
Overview
IRLR120TRRPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a logic-level N-channel power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package, rated for 100 V VDS, 7.7 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 0.27 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 5 V. It delivers ruggedized switching performance in DC-DC converters, motor control H-bridges, and load-switching circuits where low gate drive voltage and avalanche energy tolerance are critical.
For engineers reviewing the IRLR120TRRPBF datasheet, IRLR120TRRPBF pinout, IRLR120TRRPBF application, or IRLR120TRRPBF equivalent, this device offers verified repetitive avalanche capability (EAR = 4.2 mJ), dynamic dV/dt rating (5.5 V/ns), and PCB-mount thermal resistance of 50 °C/W - key selection criteria for industrial power stages operating under transient stress.
Technical Context
This third-generation trench MOSFET employs optimized cell geometry and gate oxide design to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining robust safe-operating-area (SOA) performance across temperature. Its logic-level gate threshold (1.0–2.0 V) enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode (trr = 110–140 ns, Qrr = 0.80–1.0 μC) and features low gate charge (Qg = 12 nC, Qgd = 7.1 nC), supporting high-frequency switching up to several hundred kHz in hard-switched topologies with minimal driver loss.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - supports input rails up to 48 V nominal systems with 2× safety margin for transients |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 5 V | 0.27 Ω - enables ≤1.0 W conduction loss at 6 A DC load current |
| Qg | 12 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.2 mA avg. at 100 kHz, 10 V swing) |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | 7.7 A - defines maximum steady-state current with heatsink or copper pour |
| EAS | 210 mJ - specifies single-pulse unclamped inductive switching energy handling capability |
| dV/dt Rating | 5.5 V/ns - ensures immunity to parasitic turn-on during high-speed switching in noisy environments |
| TJ Range | −55 to +150 °C - qualifies for extended industrial and automotive under-hood ambient conditions |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal conduction; standard 3-pin configuration optimized for automated assembly and PCB heat spreading.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Accepts logic-level voltage (≥4 V) to fully enhance channel; requires <12 nC total charge for full turn-on |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to exposed thermal pad; carries main current path and dissipates heat into PCB copper |
| S (Source) | Reference node / return path | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; internal source inductance (LS = 7.5 nH) affects switching ringing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS = 4 V - eliminates need for gate driver ICs in 3.3 V/5 V MCU-based designs |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for 7.7 A IAR and 4.2 mJ EAR - enables reliable operation in inductive load switching without external snubbers |
| Dynamic dV/dt immunity | 5.5 V/ns rating - prevents false triggering during fast voltage transitions in half-bridge or flyback configurations |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 7.1 nC / 12 nC = 59% - improves Miller immunity and reduces switching loss during hard commutation |
| RoHS-compliant & halogen-free | Meets JEDEC JS709A and EU Directive 2011/65/EU - suitable for environmentally regulated industrial and consumer end equipment |
Applications
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Industrial DC-DC Converters |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLR024NTRPBF | Lower VDS (55 V), lower RDS(on) (0.077 Ω), same DPAK package | Better for ≤24 V systems requiring higher efficiency; not suitable for 48 V+ bus transients | Select when system VIN ≤ 36 V and RDS(on) reduction outweighs voltage derating needs |
| SiHLR120TR-GE3 | Identical electrical specs and DPAK footprint; Vishay's newer halogen-free variant with GE3 suffix | No functional difference; preferred for new designs targeting JEDEC JS709A compliance | Drop-in replacement with identical performance; recommended for RoHS/halogen-free BOM updates |
Compared with IRLR120TRRPBF, IRLR024NTRPBF trades voltage headroom for lower conduction loss in low-voltage systems, while SiHLR120TR-GE3 provides identical performance with updated environmental compliance - enabling seamless migration without layout or thermal redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for IRLR120TRRPBF at 100 °C case temperature?
The IRLR120TRRPBF supports 4.9 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the DPAK package mounted on standard FR-4 PCB; actual current capability increases with enhanced copper area or heatsinking. The IRLR120TRRPBF maintains stable RDS(on) up to 150 °C junction temperature.
Does IRLR120TRRPBF require a gate driver IC when used with a 3.3 V microcontroller?
No, the IRLR120TRRPBF does not require an external gate driver IC when driven by a 3.3 V microcontroller. Its logic-level gate threshold (1.0–2.0 V) and guaranteed RDS(on) at VGS = 4 V ensure full enhancement with 3.3 V GPIO outputs. However, for high-frequency switching (>200 kHz), a low-impedance gate driver improves rise/fall times and reduces switching loss in the IRLR120TRRPBF.
What is the body diode reverse recovery time (trr) of IRLR120TRRPBF, and why does it matter?
The IRLR120TRRPBF has a body diode reverse recovery time of 110–140 ns at TJ = 25 °C, IF = 9.2 A, and dI/dt = 100 A/μs. This parameter directly impacts switching loss and EMI in synchronous rectification and bridge circuits - shorter trr reduces diode tail current and associated voltage spikes. The IRLR120TRRPBF's trr enables efficient operation in 100–500 kHz DC-DC converters without external snubbers.
Can IRLR120TRRPBF be used in avalanche mode for clamping in inductive load circuits?
Yes, the IRLR120TRRPBF is explicitly rated for repetitive avalanche operation, with IAR = 7.7 A and EAR = 4.2 mJ. This allows controlled use in unclamped inductive switching (e.g., solenoid drivers or relay coils) without external protection diodes. Operation must respect pulse width and duty cycle limits per Figure 11 to avoid exceeding TJ(max) = 150 °C. The IRLR120TRRPBF's ruggedized die design supports this mode reliably.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient (RthJA) for IRLR120TRRPBF on a standard PCB?
The IRLR120TRRPBF has a maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 50 °C/W when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB (per Note "e" in datasheet). This value assumes 1 oz. copper, no additional heatsink, and natural convection. With optimized thermal pads and copper pours, RthJA can improve to ~35–40 °C/W. For precise thermal design, always reference the IRLR120TRRPBF's transient impedance curve (Figure 11) and derate power accordingly.
