Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the IRFBC30STRL are identified based on electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution logic is based on the following criteria:

Electrical Parameters (Must Match):

• Drain to Source Voltage (Vdss): 600V
• Continuous Drain Current (Id) @ 25°C: 3.6A (Tc)
• Drive Voltage (Max Rds On): 10V
• Rds On (Max) @ Id, Vgs: 2.2Ohm @ 2.2A, 10V
• Vgs(th) (Max) @ Id: 4V @ 250µA
• Gate Charge (Qg) (Max) @ Vgs: 31 nC @ 10V
• Vgs (Max): ±20V
• Input Capacitance (Ciss) (Max) @ Vds: 660 pF @ 25V
• Power Dissipation (Max): 3.1W (Ta), 74W (Tc)
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 150°C (TJ)

Mechanical Parameters (Must Match):

• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Package / Case: TO-263-3, D2PAK (2 Leads + Tab), TO-263AB
• Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL): 1 (Unlimited)

Substitute parts maintain identical electrical performance and physical form factor, ensuring direct replacement capability in circuit designs. Variations in packaging format (such as Cut Tape versus other delivery methods) and RoHS compliance status do not affect electrical or mechanical compatibility.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The IRFBC30STRL and IRFBC30STRLPBF are electrically and mechanically equivalent N-Channel MOSFETs suitable for direct substitution in circuit applications. Both devices are manufactured by Vishay Siliconix and maintain identical electrical specifications across all critical parameters including voltage rating, current capacity, on-resistance, and thermal characteristics.

Selection Criteria:

IRFBC30STRL is appropriate for applications where RoHS non-compliance is acceptable or where legacy component specifications are required. This part maintains full Active product status with established supply availability.

IRFBC30STRLPBF is the preferred selection for applications requiring RoHS3 compliance. This variant is functionally identical to the IRFBC30STRL with the addition of lead-free (PbF) processing. The IRFBC30STRLPBF offers significantly higher inventory availability (24,675 pieces in stock versus 1,055 pieces for the IRFBC30STRL), supporting extended production runs and supply chain resilience.

Both parts are classified as Active products with unlimited moisture sensitivity tolerance (MSL 1), ensuring compatibility with standard handling and storage procedures. The choice between these variants should be determined by regulatory requirements, supply chain considerations, and application-specific compliance mandates.
