Product details
Overview
IRLR2905TRR from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a logic-level N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-252AA (D-Pak) surface-mount package, rated for 55 V VDS, 42 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and 0.027 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features ultra-low on-resistance, fast switching, full avalanche rating, and is optimized for DC-DC converters, motor drives, and load switching in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the IRLR2905TRR datasheet, IRLR2905TRR pinout, IRLR2905TRR application, or IRLR2905TRR equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (1.0–2.0 V), junction-to-case thermal resistance (1.4 °C/W), body diode reverse recovery time (80–120 ns), and logic-level drive compatibility with 5 V microcontrollers.
Technical Context
This fifth-generation HEXFET uses advanced planar processing to minimize RDS(on) per die area while maintaining rugged unclamped inductive switching capability. Its gate structure supports low-voltage turn-on (VGS(th) ≤ 2.0 V) and delivers high transconductance (21 S) at 25 A, enabling efficient operation in synchronous rectification and PWM-controlled power stages.
The integrated body diode exhibits controlled reverse recovery (Qrr = 210–320 nC, trr = 80–120 ns) and low forward voltage (VSD = 1.3 V at 25 A), making it suitable for freewheeling paths where diode conduction occurs during dead-time intervals.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 55 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines usable input range in 24–48 V systems |
| RDS(on) | 0.027 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Contributes ≤ 28 W conduction loss at 42 A; enables compact heatsinking |
| ID (continuous) | 42 A @ TC = 25°C - Validated current handling under PCB-mounted thermal conditions |
| Qg | 48 nC - Gate charge determines driver strength requirement; impacts switching loss at 100–500 kHz |
| trr | 80–120 ns - Reverse recovery time sets minimum dead-time in half-bridge topologies |
| EAS | 210 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating confirms robustness against inductive kickback |
| RθJC | 1.4 °C/W - Junction-to-case thermal resistance enables direct heatsink mounting via tab |
Pinout & Package
IRLR2905TRR is housed in a TO-252AA (D-Pak) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. The package supports vapor-phase, infrared, and wave soldering, and is rated for 110 W power dissipation at TC = 25°C.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives logic-level gate drive (≥4.0 V) to fully enhance channel; requires <100 nA leakage control |
| 2 (Drain) | Main power output terminal | Connected to high-side switch node or bus rail; electrically tied to exposed metal tab |
| 3 (Source) | Power return reference | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive and current sensing; carries full load current |
| 4 (Drain / Tab) | Thermal & electrical drain path | Exposed copper pad provides primary heat transfer path to PCB copper pour or heatsink |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Operates fully enhanced at VGS = 4.0 V (RDS(on) = 0.040 Ω), compatible with 3.3 V/5 V MCU GPIOs without level-shifting |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.027 Ω at 10 V enables <0.5 W conduction loss at 10 A, reducing thermal footprint in space-constrained designs |
| Fast switching speed | Turn-on delay 11 ns + rise time 84 ns allows clean transitions up to 500 kHz PWM frequencies |
| Full avalanche rating | Rated for 210 mJ single-pulse and 11 mJ repetitive avalanche energy, eliminating need for external snubbers in inductive loads |
| Surface-mount D-Pak | TO-252AA footprint supports automated assembly and offers 1.4 °C/W thermal path to PCB, superior to through-hole alternatives |
Applications
| DC-DC Buck Converter | Brushed DC Motor Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency 12 V → 5 V/3.3 V point-of-load conversion in industrial PLC modules. IC Role / Device Role: Synchronous high-side switch with integrated body diode used for freewheeling during low-side conduction. Use Value: Low RDS(on) reduces conduction loss by >35% vs. legacy 0.05 Ω MOSFETs; fast trr minimizes shoot-through risk in 300 kHz operation. | Use Scenario: H-bridge drive for 24 V, 15 A brushed motors in automated gate actuators. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side switching element controlling motor direction and PWM speed regulation. Use Value: Logic-level gate enables direct STM32 GPIO drive; avalanche rating absorbs back-EMF spikes during abrupt stop commands. |

Use Scenario: Inrush current limiting and fault isolation in redundant 48 V telecom power distribution units. IC Role / Device Role: Series pass element placed between input bus and downstream load, controlled via current-sense feedback loop. Use Value: 42 A rating supports 20 A steady-state with margin; low Qg enables fast response to overcurrent events (<1 µs detection-to-shutdown). | Use Scenario: Dimmable constant-current driver for high-brightness LED arrays in street lighting fixtures. IC Role / Device Role: Low-side current sink modulated via PWM to regulate average LED current. Use Value: 0.027 Ω RDS(on) limits sense resistor power loss; 175°C max TJ ensures reliability in sealed outdoor enclosures. |
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 (71 nC); TO-220 package | Requires heatsink mounting; unsuitable for dense SMT layouts | Select when board-level thermal management permits through-hole assembly and higher gate drive capability is available |
| STP55NF06L | RDS(on) = 0.018 Ω @ 10 V; VDS = 60 V; TO-220FP package | Higher voltage margin but larger footprint and no surface-mount option | Prefer when lower conduction loss justifies added board area and thermal interface complexity |
Compared with IRLR2905TRR, IRLZ44N trades SMT compatibility for slightly higher gate charge and through-hole packaging, while STP55NF06L offers lower RDS(on) but lacks the D-Pak's thermal efficiency and automated assembly support.

FAQ
What is the maximum gate-to-source voltage rating for IRLR2905TRR?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±16 V. Exceeding this risks permanent gate oxide damage. For reliable operation, gate drive should be clamped to ≤12 V with transient suppression, especially in noisy industrial environments where ringing may cause overshoot beyond 10 V logic levels.
Can IRLR2905TRR be used in parallel configurations?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) (0.070 V/°C) enables inherent current sharing. Successful paralleling requires matched layout symmetry, identical gate drive impedance, and shared source inductance ≤1.5 nH to prevent dynamic imbalance during switching transitions.
Is the TO-252AA package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes - IRLR2905TRR is manufactured to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL-1), with lead-free matte tin plating on terminals and compliant with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-006 solderability requirements.
Does the body diode support continuous conduction mode (CCM) in synchronous rectifiers?
Yes - the body diode is rated for continuous source current up to 42 A at TC = 25°C and exhibits low VSD (1.3 V) and controlled trr (80–120 ns), enabling use in CCM buck converters up to 300 kHz without external Schottky replacement.
