Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the IRF7815PBF is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical electrical and mechanical parameters:

Electrical Equivalence Criteria:

  • Drain-to-Source Voltage (Vdss): 150V minimum
  • Continuous Drain Current (Id): 4.9A or higher at rated temperature
  • On-State Resistance (Rds On): Within acceptable operating range for the application
  • Gate Charge (Qg): Consistent switching characteristics
  • Power Dissipation Rating: 2.5W or higher
  • Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C minimum

Mechanical Equivalence Criteria:

  • Package Type: 8-SOIC surface mount configuration
  • Pin Pitch and Footprint: 0.154" (3.90mm) width compatibility

Compliance Criteria:

  • RoHS3 Compliance
  • Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)
  • REACH Status: REACH Unaffected

The FDS2572 from onsemi meets all substitution criteria and is classified as a manufacturer-recommended equivalent.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The FDS2572 from onsemi is a direct substitute for the discontinued IRF7815PBF. Both devices share identical voltage ratings, power dissipation specifications, operating temperature ranges, and package configurations. The FDS2572 maintains ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, ensuring regulatory alignment with the original component.

The FDS2572 is currently in active production status with 17,200 units available in inventory, providing supply continuity for applications previously using the IRF7815PBF. The electrical parameters remain within acceptable tolerance for equivalent circuit operation, with continuous drain current of 4.9A versus 5.1A and on-state resistance of 47mOhm versus 43mOhm at 10V gate drive.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the FDS2572 be used as a direct replacement for the IRF7815PBF in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes. Both devices use the 8-SOIC package with identical 0.154" (3.90mm) width and pin pitch. PCB footprints are mechanically and electrically compatible without modification.

Q: What are the key differences between the IRF7815PBF and FDS2572?

A: The primary differences are manufacturer (Infineon versus onsemi) and series designation (HEXFET® versus UltraFET™). Electrical performance is equivalent: both rated 150V, 2.5W, with matching gate charge of 38nC at 10V. The FDS2572 has slightly lower continuous drain current (4.9A versus 5.1A) and marginally higher on-state resistance (47mOhm versus 43mOhm).

Q: Are there any thermal or reliability concerns when substituting the FDS2572 for the IRF7815PBF?

A: Both devices share identical maximum power dissipation (2.5W) and operating temperature range (-55°C to 150°C). Thermal performance is equivalent when mounted on equivalent PCB copper areas and thermal management structures.

Q: Does the FDS2572 require different gate drive voltage than the IRF7815PBF?

A: No. Both devices operate with maximum gate-source voltage of ±20V and are specified for 10V drive voltage. Gate charge characteristics are identical at 38nC at 10V.

Q: What is the availability status of the FDS2572?

A: The FDS2572 is in active production status with 17,200 units currently in stock, providing immediate availability for procurement and design implementation.

Q: Are both devices RoHS3 compliant?

A: Yes. Both the IRF7815PBF and FDS2572 are ROHS3 compliant with MSL rating of 1 (Unlimited) and REACH unaffected status.
