MTP23P06VG P-Channel MOSFET 60V 23A TO-220 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MTP23P06VG is a P-Channel MOSFET manufactured by onsemi, rated for 60V drain-to-source voltage with 23A continuous drain current at 25°C. The device is housed in a TO-220-3 through-hole package and is designed for power switching applications requiring moderate voltage and current ratings. The part is currently listed as obsolete, making equivalent and substitute parts necessary for ongoing design support and procurement.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MTP23P06VG is determined by the following critical parameters:

Primary Substitution Criteria:

FET Type: P-Channel (mandatory)
Package: TO-220-3 through-hole (mandatory for mechanical compatibility)
Drain-to-Source Voltage (Vdss): 60V or higher (allows operation within or above the original voltage rating)
Continuous Drain Current (Id): 23A or higher (ensures current capacity meets or exceeds original specification)
Gate Threshold Voltage (Vgs(th)): 4V nominal (standard for P-Channel MOSFETs in this class)
Operating Temperature: −55°C to 175°C or compatible range

Secondary Compatibility Factors:

On-Resistance (Rds On): Lower values indicate improved performance; higher values require thermal analysis
Gate Charge (Qg): Affects switching speed and driver requirements
Power Dissipation: Must accommodate thermal design constraints

Substitute parts are grouped into two categories:

Category A – Direct Voltage/Current Equivalents (60V, ≥23A): Parts with Vdss = 60V and Id ≥ 23A provide direct functional replacement with minimal circuit redesign.

Category B – Higher Voltage Ratings (>60V, ≥23A): Parts with Vdss > 60V and Id ≥ 23A provide enhanced voltage margin and are suitable for applications where higher voltage headroom is beneficial or required.

Engineering Selection Recommendations

For Direct Replacement (Same Voltage Rating):

FQP17P06 (onsemi) is an active-status alternative from the same manufacturer. It operates at the same 60V Vdss rating but with reduced continuous drain current (17A versus 23A). This part is suitable only for applications where the required drain current does not exceed 17A. The part carries RoHS3 compliance and is actively manufactured.

IRF5305PBF (Infineon Technologies) operates at 55V Vdss with 31A continuous drain current, exceeding the original current rating. This part provides enhanced current capacity within a comparable voltage envelope and is actively supported with RoHS3 compliance.

For Enhanced Voltage Margin:

IRF9540NPBF (Infineon Technologies, HEXFET® series) matches the original 23A continuous drain current specification at 100V Vdss. This part is actively manufactured with RoHS3 compliance and provides 40V additional voltage headroom. On-resistance is 117 mOhm at 11A and 10V, closely matching the original specification.

IRF5210PBF (Infineon Technologies, HEXFET® series) provides the highest current capacity (40A) and power dissipation (200W) at 100V Vdss. This part is suitable for applications requiring significant thermal and electrical margin.

Compliance and Availability:

All recommended active-status parts carry RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status. IRF9540NPBF and IRF5305PBF offer the best balance of electrical performance, compliance, and active manufacturing status for direct substitution scenarios.

Parts with obsolete status (IRF9520NPBF) should not be selected for new designs despite electrical compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can FQP17P06 replace MTP23P06VG in all applications?

FQP17P06 has a maximum continuous drain current of 17A, compared to 23A for the MTP23P06VG. It is suitable only for applications where the actual drain current requirement does not exceed 17A. If the circuit requires the full 23A capability, FQP17P06 is not a suitable replacement.

Q2: What is the advantage of selecting a higher voltage-rated part like IRF9540NPBF?

IRF9540NPBF operates at 100V Vdss versus 60V for the original part. This provides 40V additional voltage margin, reducing the risk of overvoltage damage in transient conditions. The part maintains the same 23A continuous drain current and similar on-resistance characteristics, making it a direct functional replacement with enhanced reliability.

Q3: Are all substitute parts pin-compatible with MTP23P06VG?

All listed substitute parts use the TO-220-3 package with identical pin configuration (Gate, Drain, Source). They are mechanically and electrically pin-compatible for through-hole PCB mounting. No circuit board modifications are required for package compatibility.

Q4: What is the difference between IRF9540NPBF and IRF9540PBF?

Both parts have the same base part number (IRF9540) but are manufactured by different suppliers: IRF9540NPBF by Infineon Technologies and IRF9540PBF by Vishay Siliconix. IRF9540NPBF has 23A continuous drain current, while IRF9540PBF has 19A. Both operate at 100V Vdss and are actively manufactured with RoHS3 compliance.

Q5: Why is IRF9510PBF listed but not recommended?

IRF9510PBF has only 4A continuous drain current, significantly below the 23A requirement of the original part. Although it operates at 100V Vdss, the current rating makes it unsuitable for applications requiring the full 23A capability. It is listed for reference only and should not be selected as a substitute.

Q6: What thermal considerations apply when substituting with higher-rated parts?

Parts with higher power dissipation ratings (such as IRF5210PBF at 200W) may require different thermal management approaches. However, if the actual circuit current and switching frequency remain unchanged, the thermal load on the device remains similar to the original design. Thermal design should be based on actual application requirements, not maximum device ratings.

Q7: Are there any compliance differences between substitute parts?

All active-status substitute parts carry RoHS3 compliance. IRF9510PBF has REACH Affected status, while all other parts have REACH Unaffected status. For applications subject to REACH regulations, parts with REACH Unaffected status are preferred.

Q8: Can I use IRF5305PBF as a direct replacement?

IRF5305PBF operates at 55V Vdss (5V below the original 60V rating) with 31A continuous drain current. It is suitable for applications where the actual supply voltage does not exceed 55V. The enhanced current rating provides additional margin. This part is actively manufactured with RoHS3 compliance and REACH Unaffected status.
