IRFBF20PBF

Vishay Intertech · MOSFETs · TO-220AB

IRFBF20PBF from Vishay Intertech, in a TO-220AB. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 G input Gate of the N-channel MOSFET; the datasheet gives the gate-source voltage limit as VGS = ±20 V.
2 D passive Drain of the N-channel MOSFET, rated for a drain-source voltage VDS of 900 V and continuous drain current ID of 1.7 A at TC = 25 °C; the datasheet also refers to the drain as the case (RthJC is quoted to the drain).
3 S passive Source of the N-channel MOSFET, which forms the integral body diode with a continuous source-drain diode current IS of 1.7 A.
