  • Matching Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss): 200V
  • Matching Continuous Drain Current (Id) @ 25°C: 3.5A (Tc)
  • Identical Drive Voltage (Max Rds On): 10V
  • Matching On-State Drain Resistance (Rds On): 1.5Ohm @ 1.5A, 10V
  • Identical Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th)): 4V @ 250µA
  • Matching Gate Charge (Qg): 22nC @ 10V
  • Identical Maximum Gate-Source Voltage (Vgs): ±20V
  • Matching Input Capacitance (Ciss): 350pF @ 25V
  • Identical Power Dissipation (Max): 40W (Tc)
  • Matching Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to 150°C (TJ)

Mechanical Parameter Equivalence:

  • Identical Mounting Type: Through Hole
  • Matching Package / Case: TO-220-3
  • Matching Supplier Device Package: TO-220AB

The IRF9620PBF differs only in product status (Active versus Obsolete) and compliance certifications, with no impact on electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The IRF9620PBF is the direct equivalent substitute for the obsolete IRF9620. Selection of the IRF9620PBF is appropriate for the following reasons:

Product Status: The IRF9620PBF maintains Active product status, ensuring continued availability and manufacturer support. The IRF9620 is classified as Obsolete, creating supply chain risk for new production and long-term maintenance applications.

Compliance Certifications: The IRF9620PBF is ROHS3 Compliant, meeting current regulatory requirements for electronic components in regulated markets. The IRF9620 is RoHS non-compliant, which may restrict its use in applications subject to RoHS directives. Both parts maintain REACH Unaffected status and identical ECCN and HTSUS classifications.

Electrical and Mechanical Equivalence: All electrical parameters and mechanical specifications are identical between the two parts. The IRF9620PBF operates within the same voltage, current, and temperature ranges as the IRF9620 and uses the identical TO-220AB package configuration.

Packaging Consideration: The IRF9620PBF is supplied in Tube packaging, whereas the IRF9620 packaging type is not specified. This difference does not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility and relates only to handling and storage logistics.
