Product details
Overview
IRLZ44STRRPBF from Vishay Siliconix is a logic-level N-channel Power MOSFET in D2PAK (TO-263) package, rated for 60 V VDS, 50 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 0.028 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 5.0 V. It operates up to 175 °C junction temperature and delivers fast switching with 66 nC total gate charge - used in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and high-current load switching.
For engineers reviewing the IRLZ44STRRPBF datasheet, IRLZ44STRRPBF pinout, IRLZ44STRRPBF application, or IRLZ44STRRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) = 1.0–2.0 V), low RDS(on) at 4–5 V, avalanche energy rating (EAS = 400 mJ), thermal performance on PCB mount (RthJA = 40 °C/W), and D2PAK mechanical footprint constraints.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs third-generation trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and fast switching in surface-mount power applications. Its dynamic dV/dt rating (4.5 V/ns) and unclamped inductive switching capability support robust operation in hard-switched topologies.
The device integrates a body diode with 130–180 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 0.84–1.3 μC reverse recovery charge (Qrr), enabling moderate-frequency synchronous rectification and freewheeling in buck or half-bridge configurations without external diode supplementation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 60 V - maximum blocking voltage compatible with 48 V bus systems and industrial 24–48 V DC supplies |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 5 V | 0.028 Ω - enables ≤1.5 W conduction loss at 7.3 A RMS, suitable for high-efficiency 10–50 A switch-mode loads |
| Qg | 66 nC - determines gate driver current requirement (~1.3 A peak for 50 ns turn-on with 4.6 Ω Rg) |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | 50 A - defines maximum steady-state current when mounted on heatsink or thermally enhanced PCB |
| EAS | 400 mJ - supports single-pulse unclamped inductive energy handling in motor control or relay driving |
| TJ range | −55 to +175 °C - allows operation in under-hood automotive, industrial motor controllers, and sealed power supplies |
| RthJA (PCB mount) | 40 °C/W - sets thermal rise of 150 °C at 3.7 W dissipation on 1" FR-4 PCB, guiding layout copper area design |
Pinout & Package
D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package with exposed drain tab for thermal and electrical connection; 3-terminal configuration (G, D, S); standard JEDEC outline; thermal pad soldered to PCB copper pour for heat transfer.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| G (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives logic-level voltage (≥4 V) to fully enhance channel; requires <100 nA leakage current drive |
| D (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to exposed metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to system ground |
| S (Source) | Power return / reference node | 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 | Guaranteed turn-on at VGS = 4.0 V (RDS(on) ≤ 0.039 Ω), enabling direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V microcontrollers and gate drivers |
| Dynamic dV/dt immunity | Rated 4.5 V/ns - suppresses false triggering during high dv/dt transients in inductive load switching |
| 175 °C operating temperature | Enables use in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating below full current capability |
| Fast switching performance | Turn-on delay 17 ns + rise time 230 ns; fall time 110 ns - supports >100 kHz PWM in SMPS and motor control |
| Avalanche-rated | Specified single-pulse EAS = 400 mJ - eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load commutation |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFZ44NPbF | RDS(on) = 0.028 Ω @ VGS = 10 V only; VGS(th) = 2–4 V; not logic-level optimized | Requires 10 V gate drive; unsuitable for direct 3.3 V MCU interface without level-shifting | Select IRLZ44STRRPBF when gate drive voltage is limited to ≤5 V and low-threshold turn-on is mandatory |
| STP55NF06L | RDS(on) = 0.018 Ω @ VGS = 5 V; higher Qg = 85 nC; TO-220 package | Larger footprint and lower thermal efficiency on PCB; better conduction but slower switching | Choose IRLZ44STRRPBF for space-constrained D2PAK layouts where 0.028 Ω RDS(on) and 66 nC Qg balance efficiency and size |
Compared with IRFZ44NPbF and STP55NF06L, the IRLZ44STRRPBF uniquely combines logic-level gate compatibility, D2PAK thermal performance, and 400 mJ avalanche ruggedness - making it optimal for compact, high-current, low-voltage-gate designs where PCB real estate and drive simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the gate threshold voltage range for IRLZ44STRRPBF?
The IRLZ44STRRPBF has a gate-source threshold voltage (VGS(th)) of 1.0 V minimum to 2.0 V maximum at ID = 250 μA. This ensures reliable enhancement with 3.3 V or 5 V logic signals, distinguishing it from standard MOSFETs requiring ≥3 V minimum for partial turn-on. The IRLZ44STRRPBF achieves full RDS(on) specification at VGS = 4.0 V.
Does IRLZ44STRRPBF support avalanche operation, and what is its rated energy?
Yes, the IRLZ44STRRPBF is rated for single-pulse unclamped inductive switching with EAS = 400 mJ at TJ = 25 °C. This is validated per test condition VDD = 25 V, IAS = 51 A, and L = 179 μH. The IRLZ44STRRPBF does not specify repetitive avalanche rating, so designers must limit operation to single-event conditions or implement external clamping for repeated stress.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for IRLZ44STRRPBF in PCB mount configuration?
The IRLZ44STRRPBF has a maximum junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) of 40 °C/W when mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB - significantly lower than the 62 °C/W rating for still-air conditions. This value assumes standard copper pour layout per Vishay's recommended pads; actual performance depends on PCB copper area, layer count, and airflow. The IRLZ44STRRPBF's D2PAK drain tab must be soldered to thermal copper for this rating to apply.
Can IRLZ44STRRPBF replace IRLZ44N in existing designs?
Yes, the IRLZ44STRRPBF is a tape-and-reel variant of the same die and package as IRLZ44N, sharing identical electrical specifications, pinout, and thermal characteristics. Both use D2PAK (TO-263) packaging and have identical VDS, RDS(on), Qg, and avalanche ratings. The IRLZ44STRRPBF differs only in packaging format (tape-and-reel) and RoHS compliance status - confirming full functional and mechanical interchangeability in production assembly.
What are the body diode characteristics of IRLZ44STRRPBF?
The IRLZ44STRRPBF integrates a fast-recovery body diode with VSD = 2.5 V max at IS = 51 A and TJ = 25 °C, trr = 130–180 ns, and Qrr = 0.84–1.3 μC. These parameters enable use in freewheeling paths without external diodes in low-to-moderate frequency (<100 kHz) topologies. The IRLZ44STRRPBF body diode is not rated for continuous conduction beyond its 50 A source-drain current limit.
