Product details
Overview
IRLU2703 from Infineon Technologies (formerly International Rectifier) is a logic-level N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-251AA (I-Pak) package, rated for 30 V V(BR)DSS, 0.045 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 14 A, and 23 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It features ultra-low on-resistance, fast switching, and full avalanche rating - used in DC-DC converters, motor control stages, and high-efficiency power switches.
For engineers reviewing the IRLU2703 datasheet, IRLU2703 pinout, IRLU2703 application, or IRLU2703 equivalent, key selection criteria include gate threshold voltage (1.0–2.5 V), RDS(on) at 4.5 V (0.065 Ω), total gate charge (15 nC), thermal resistance RθJA (50 °C/W), and avalanche energy rating (77 mJ).
Technical Context
The IRLU2703 employs fifth-generation HEXFET process technology to achieve low conduction loss and high switching efficiency. Its logic-level gate drive enables direct interfacing with 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers without level-shifting circuitry.
It integrates a robust body diode with 1.3 V forward voltage at 14 A and 65–97 ns reverse recovery time, supporting synchronous rectification and unclamped inductive switching. The device is fully avalanche-rated for 77 mJ single-pulse energy under defined test conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 30 V - maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; defines safe operating range in 24 V systems. |
| RDS(on) | 0.045 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 14 A - enables <1 W conduction loss at 15 A, critical for thermally constrained PCBs. |
| VGS(th) | 1.0–2.5 V - ensures reliable turn-on with standard logic outputs, eliminating need for gate drivers in low-power apps. |
| Qg | 15 nC - determines gate drive power and switching speed; compatible with low-current MCU GPIOs when driven via series resistor. |
| EAS | 77 mJ - supports robust operation in inductive load switching (e.g., solenoids, relay coils) without external snubbers. |
| RθJA | 50 °C/W - measured with PCB mount; sets thermal derating slope (0.30 W/°C) for sustained 45 W power dissipation at TC = 25°C. |
Pinout & Package
IRLU2703 uses the TO-251AA (I-Pak) surface-mount-compatible through-hole package with three leads and dual drain connections for enhanced current handling and thermal path. Lead assignment follows JEDEC standard: Pin 1 = Gate, Pin 2 = Drain, Pin 3 = Source, Pin 4 = Drain (common with Pin 2).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (GATE) | Control electrode | Accepts logic-level voltage (≥2.5 V) to fully enhance channel; requires <100 nA leakage current at ±16 V. |
| 2 & 4 (DRAIN) | High-side power terminal | Dual drain pins reduce current density and parasitic inductance (LD = 4.5 nH); connected internally to die drain metallization. |
| 3 (SOURCE) | Reference and return path | Serves as common node for gate drive reference and load return; internal source inductance LS = 7.5 nH affects di/dt capability. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Turns on fully at VGS = 4.5 V (RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω), enabling direct MCU interface without level shifters. |
| Fully avalanche rated | Withstands 77 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, allowing reliable operation in inductive switching without clamping circuits. |
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.045 Ω at 10 V gate drive reduces conduction losses by >30% vs. legacy 30 V MOSFETs in same package. |
| Fast switching | 140 ns rise time and 20 ns fall time (RG = 12 Ω) support >500 kHz PWM in SMPS designs. |
Applications
| Brushless DC Motor Control | Automotive Body Control Module |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel logic-level MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRLR2703 | Same die, D-Pak (TO-252AA) package; RθJA = 110 °C/W (vs. 50 °C/W for IRLU2703); surface-mount only. | Preferred where PCB space allows SMT assembly and thermal pad access is available. | Select IRLR2703 for higher-density layouts; choose IRLU2703 for through-hole reliability and easier prototyping. |
| FQP30N06L | 60 V V(BR)DSS, 0.028 Ω RDS(on) @ 10 V, but VGS(th) = 1.0–2.5 V - wider voltage margin but higher gate charge (27 nC). | Better suited for 48 V systems or where overvoltage headroom is critical. | Use FQP30N06L only if 60 V rating is required; IRLU2703 offers lower Qg and better thermal performance in 24–30 V designs. |
Compared with IRLR2703 and FQP30N06L, the IRLU2703 delivers optimal balance of low gate charge (15 nC), superior thermal resistance (50 °C/W), and proven avalanche ruggedness in 30 V industrial and automotive loads - making it preferred for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained through-hole designs.

FAQ
Is IRLU2703 suitable for 3.3 V microcontroller direct drive?
Yes. With VGS(th) as low as 1.0 V and guaranteed turn-on at VGS = 4.5 V (RDS(on) = 0.065 Ω), the IRLU2703 interfaces directly with 3.3 V GPIOs when series gate resistance is ≤10 Ω. Total gate charge is 15 nC, limiting required drive current to <1.5 mA for 100 ns edge rates.
What is the maximum continuous current at 70°C case temperature?
At TC = 70°C, linear derating (0.30 W/°C) reduces maximum power dissipation from 45 W to 36 W. Using RDS(on) = 0.045 Ω, the corresponding continuous current is √(36 W / 0.045 Ω) ≈ 28.3 A - but package-limited current is 20 A per datasheet note, so 20 A is the practical limit.
Does IRLU2703 have a built-in ESD protection diode?
No. The IRLU2703 does not integrate gate-oxide ESD protection. External 10 kΩ series resistor and 12 V Zener clamp between gate and source are recommended for handling >2 kV HBM events during board assembly and handling.
Can IRLU2703 replace IRLU120 in existing designs?
Yes, with validation. IRLU2703 offers lower RDS(on) (0.045 Ω vs. 0.12 Ω), higher ID (23 A vs. 12 A), and improved avalanche rating (77 mJ vs. 32 mJ). Pinout and package are identical (TO-251AA), but gate charge increases slightly (15 nC vs. 11 nC), requiring minor gate driver timing review.
