Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IRF1407PBF is determined by the following critical parameters:

Electrical Compatibility Requirements:

• Drain-to-Source Voltage (Vdss) must be equal to or greater than 75V
• Continuous Drain Current (Id) must be equal to or greater than 130A
• Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th)) must be compatible with 4V nominal specification
• Maximum Gate Voltage (Vgs) must support ±20V operation
• Operating temperature range must encompass -55°C to 175°C

Mechanical Compatibility Requirements:

• Package type must be TO-220AB or equivalent TO-220-3 through-hole configuration
• Mounting type must be through-hole

Compliance Requirements:

• RoHS3 compliance required
• REACH unaffected status required

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories: Direct Equivalents (matching or exceeding all primary electrical specifications) and Functional Alternatives (meeting voltage and current requirements with acceptable trade-offs in secondary parameters such as on-resistance or gate charge).

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Primary Substitutes (Active Product Status):

The IRFB3077PBF, IRFB3207ZPBF, and IRFB3307ZPBF from Infineon Technologies are recommended as primary substitutes. All three devices maintain the 75V Vdss rating and are manufactured by the same supplier as the IRF1407PBF, ensuring design continuity and supply chain reliability. These parts carry Active product status and full RoHS3 compliance. The IRFB3077PBF offers the lowest on-resistance (3.3 mOhm) and highest power dissipation rating (370W), making it suitable for applications requiring maximum thermal performance. The IRFB3207ZPBF provides a balanced alternative with improved on-resistance (4.1 mOhm) compared to the original part. The IRFB3307ZPBF features the lowest gate charge (110 nC), reducing switching losses in high-frequency applications.

Secondary Substitutes (Cross-Manufacturer):

The STP140NF75 from STMicroelectronics matches the 75V/120A specification and maintains comparable on-resistance (7.5 mOhm) to the IRF1407PBF. This part is Active and RoHS3 compliant. The CSD19501KCS from Texas Instruments provides an 80V rated alternative with 100A continuous current and superior gate charge characteristics (50 nC), suitable for applications with higher voltage margins.

Not Recommended for New Applications:

The PSMN012-80PS,127 and PSMN017-80PS,127 from Nexperia carry Obsolete product status and should not be selected for new designs. The DMT6010SCT from Diodes Incorporated operates at 60V Vdss, below the 75V requirement of the IRF1407PBF, and is unsuitable for direct substitution. The STP75NF75 provides only 80A continuous current, insufficient for applications requiring the full 130A capability of the original part.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the IRFB3207ZPBF directly replace the IRF1407PBF in existing designs?

A: The IRFB3207ZPBF is electrically compatible with the IRF1407PBF in applications where the 120A continuous current rating is sufficient. Both devices share the same 75V Vdss rating, ±20V gate voltage specification, and TO-220AB package. The IRFB3207ZPBF features lower on-resistance (4.1 mOhm vs. 7.8 mOhm), resulting in reduced power dissipation and improved thermal performance. Verify that your application does not require the full 130A capability of the original part.

Q: What is the difference between the IRFB3077PBF and IRFB3307ZPBF?

A: Both parts are rated for 75V/120A and are manufactured by Infineon. The IRFB3077PBF offers superior on-resistance (3.3 mOhm) and higher power dissipation capability (370W), making it preferable for high-current, high-temperature applications. The IRFB3307ZPBF features significantly lower gate charge (110 nC vs. 220 nC), reducing switching losses and making it more suitable for high-frequency switching applications. Select based on whether your design prioritizes thermal performance or switching efficiency.

Q: Why is the CSD19501KCS rated for 80V instead of 75V?

A: The CSD19501KCS from Texas Instruments is rated for 80V Vdss, which exceeds the 75V requirement of the IRF1407PBF. This higher voltage rating provides additional design margin and is fully compatible with 75V applications. The device is suitable for use in circuits designed for the IRF1407PBF, provided that the 100A continuous current rating meets application requirements.

Q: Can I use the DMT6010SCT as a substitute?

A: The DMT6010SCT is not recommended as a direct substitute. Although it is packaged in TO-220-3 and shares the same gate threshold voltage specification, it is rated for only 60V Vdss, which is below the 75V requirement of the IRF1407PBF. Using this part in a 75V application would exceed its voltage rating and result in device failure.

Q: Are the PSMN012-80PS,127 and PSMN017-80PS,127 suitable alternatives?

A: Both Nexperia parts carry Obsolete product status and should not be selected for new designs or long-term applications. The PSMN012-80PS,127 is rated for only 74A continuous current, and the PSMN017-80PS,127 is rated for only 50A, both insufficient for the 130A requirement of the IRF1407PBF. These parts are listed for reference only in legacy system support scenarios.

Q: What is the significance of the TO-220 vs. TO-220AB package designation?

A: Both TO-220 and TO-220AB are through-hole packages with identical pin configurations and thermal characteristics. The designations reflect minor manufacturing variations but do not affect electrical performance or mechanical compatibility. Devices in either package type are interchangeable in circuit board layouts designed for TO-220-3 through-hole mounting.

Q: How do I determine which substitute part is best for my application?

A: Selection depends on three primary factors: (1) Required continuous drain current—if your application requires more than 120A, the IRF1407PBF cannot be substituted; (2) Thermal requirements—if power dissipation is critical, select the IRFB3077PBF (370W) or STP140NF75 (310W); (3) Switching frequency—if operating at high frequencies, prioritize parts with lower gate charge such as the IRFB3307ZPBF (110 nC) or CSD19501KCS (50 nC).

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS3 compliant?

A: All recommended substitute parts listed in the Active product status category are RoHS3 compliant. The obsolete Nexperia parts (PSMN012-80PS,127 and PSMN017-80PS,127) are also RoHS3 compliant but should not be used in new designs due to their discontinued status.
