Product details
Overview
IRLR2705TR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a logic-level N-channel Power MOSFET in D-Pak (TO-252AA) package, rated for 55 V VDS, 28 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and 0.040 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features ultra-low on-resistance, fast switching, full avalanche rating, and surface-mount compatibility-used in DC-DC converters, motor drivers, and load switches where efficient high-current switching at 5 V gate drive is required.
For engineers reviewing the IRLR2705TR datasheet, IRLR2705TR pinout, IRLR2705TR application, or IRLR2705TR equivalent, key selection criteria include its logic-level gate threshold (1.0–2.0 V), 55 V breakdown voltage, 28 A thermal-limited current, 25 nC total gate charge, and D-Pak thermal resistance (RθJC = 2.2 °C/W).
Technical Context
This fifth-generation HEXFET device uses advanced silicon processing to minimize RDS(on) per die area while maintaining ruggedness. Its gate threshold (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V) enables direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting. The integrated body diode has trr = 76–110 ns and Qrr = 190–290 nC under specified conditions.
The MOSFET supports unclamped inductive switching with EAS = 110 mJ (single-pulse) and IAR = 16 A, and operates across –55°C to +175°C junction temperature. Its Ciss = 880 pF, Coss = 220 pF, and Crss = 94 pF at VDS = 25 V enable predictable high-frequency switching behavior in hard-switched topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche; sets upper limit for bus voltage in buck converters or half-bridge legs. |
| RDS(on) | 0.040 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Enables ≤1.1 W conduction loss at 16.5 A, critical for thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| ID (continuous) | 28 A @ TC = 25°C - Sustains high load current when heatsinked; derates to 20 A at 100°C case temperature. |
| Qg | 25 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement and switching speed; compatible with standard 1–2 A peak gate drivers. |
| tr/tf | 100 ns / 29 ns - Supports >500 kHz switching in SMPS designs with low switching loss trade-off. |
| EAS | 110 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy without failure; validates robustness in relay/motor flyback scenarios. |
| RθJC | 2.2 °C/W - Enables precise junction temperature estimation when mounted on copper pour; critical for thermal design validation. |
Pinout & Package
The IRLR2705TR is housed in a surface-mount D-Pak (TO-252AA) package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance. Lead assignments conform to JEDEC outline TO-252AA.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gate | Control terminal; requires <1.0 µA leakage at ±16 V; driven by logic-level MCU GPIO or dedicated gate driver. |
| 2 | Drain | Main high-side current path; electrically and thermally connected to exposed backside pad; ties to input bus or switch node. |
| 3 | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; connects to ground or low-side return path. |
| 4 | Drain | Second drain connection; paralleled with Pin 2 to reduce package inductance and improve thermal spreading to PCB copper. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V enables direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V controllers-eliminates external level shifters in compact designs. |
| Fully avalanche-rated | Rated for 110 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-ensures reliability in inductive load switching without snubbers. |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.040 Ω @ 10 V reduces conduction loss by >30% vs. legacy 55 V MOSFETs-improves efficiency in 12 V input systems. |
| Surface-mount D-Pak | TO-252AA footprint supports automated assembly and offers 2.2 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance-enables high-power density layout. |
| Fast body diode | trr = 76–110 ns and Qrr = 190–290 nC minimize reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths. |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Step-down regulation from 12 V or 24 V battery to 3.3 V/5 V for microcontroller and sensor rails in automotive body control modules. IC Role / Device Role: High-side synchronous rectifier switch operating at 250–500 kHz with 5 V gate drive from PWM controller. Use Value: 0.040 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.1 W at 16.5 A, enabling compact thermal design without forced air cooling. | Use Scenario: H-bridge drive for 12 V brushed motors in power seats, HVAC actuators, or industrial positioning stages. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side switching element handling bidirectional 20 A peak current with PWM-controlled direction and speed. Use Value: Full avalanche rating (EAS = 110 mJ) absorbs inductive kickback during rapid PWM turn-off-reducing need for external clamping diodes. |
| Hot-Swap Controller | LED Constant-Current Driver |
Use Scenario: Inrush current limiting and fault protection for 48 V telecom or server backplane slots during live insertion. IC Role / Device Role: Series pass element controlled by dedicated hot-swap IC to ramp voltage and trip on overcurrent. Use Value: 55 V VDS withstands transient surges up to 60 V; 28 A rating supports ≥20 A sustained load with margin. | Use Scenario: Dimmable constant-current driver for high-brightness LED arrays in architectural lighting or signage. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side current sink modulated via PWM to regulate LED string current up to 17 A. Use Value: Low VSD (≤1.3 V at 17 A) minimizes power dissipation in linear dimming mode-reducing heatsink size and cost. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLZ44N | RDS(on) = 0.028 Ω @ 10 V; higher Qg = 34 nC; same VDS = 55 V; TO-220 package | Requires larger board space and heatsinking; better conduction loss but slower switching than IRLR2705TR | Select when lowest RDS(on) dominates and through-hole mounting is acceptable. |
| STP55NF06L | RDS(on) = 0.018 Ω @ 10 V; VGS(th) = 1.0–2.5 V; TO-220 package; no official avalanche rating | Lacks documented EAS spec; higher risk in inductive switching without snubber design | Prefer only in non-inductive, low-dv/dt applications where conduction loss is primary concern. |
Compared with IRLR2705TR, the IRLZ44N offers lower conduction loss but sacrifices switching speed and surface-mount compatibility, while the STP55NF06L delivers superior RDS(on) but lacks verified avalanche ruggedness-making IRLR2705TR the balanced choice for thermally constrained, inductive-load SMPS and motor control.

FAQ
Is IRLR2705TR suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes. With a gate threshold voltage of 1.0–2.0 V and guaranteed turn-on at VGS = 4.0 V (RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω), the IRLR2705TR fully enhances using 3.3 V logic outputs. However, RDS(on) increases to 0.051 Ω at VGS = 5.0 V and 0.065 Ω at VGS = 4.0 V-designers should verify conduction loss at target current and temperature.
What is the maximum recommended PCB copper area for thermal relief?
For optimal thermal performance, the D-Pak drain pad (Pins 2 and 4) should be soldered to ≥100 mm² of 2 oz copper on an internal layer, connected via ≥4 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter) to inner ground planes. This achieves near-datasheet RθJA ≈ 50 °C/W in standard 4-layer boards.
Does IRLR2705TR have a specified SOA curve for linear-mode operation?
Yes. Figure 8 in the official datasheet provides the Maximum Safe Operating Area (SOA) for pulsed operation up to 10 ms, bounded by RDS(on), package power limit, and thermal runaway. Linear-mode use is restricted to pulse widths ≤100 µs at 25°C ambient, with strict derating above 25°C case temperature.
Can IRLR2705TR replace IRLU2705 in existing designs?
Yes, with mechanical adaptation. Both share identical die and electrical specs, but IRLU2705 uses TO-251AA (IPAK) with straight leads for through-hole mounting, while IRLR2705TR uses TO-252AA (D-Pak) for surface mount. PCB footprint, stencil design, and reflow profile must be updated-no electrical redesign is needed.
