VISHAY IRF9540PBF P-Channel Power MOSFET, 100V, 19A, TO-220AB

The VISHAY IRF9540PBF is a -100V P-channel power MOSFET that offers designers an optimal balance of fast switching performance, rugged construction, low on-resistance, and excellent cost-effectiveness. Its low thermal resistance has made it a widely accepted and trusted component throughout the electronics industry.

Engineered for robust operation, this MOSFET features a high dynamic dv/dt rating and is rated for repetitive avalanche conditions, ensuring reliability in demanding environments. It is designed for ease of paralleling, simplifying design in high-current applications, and boasts simple drive requirements for straightforward circuit integration.

Key electrical specifications include a gate-to-source voltage rating of ±20V, providing a good margin for safe operation. Its low on-resistance of just 0.2 ohms minimises power loss and heat generation, contributing to higher system efficiency. With a high continuous drain current rating of 19A and a power dissipation capability of 150W, it is well-suited for power switching and control tasks.

The device is housed in the industry-standard TO-220AB through-hole package, which facilitates easy mounting and excellent thermal management when used with a heatsink. This package style, combined with the MOSFET's thermal performance (1°C/W junction-to-case), allows for effective heat dissipation in compact designs.
