IRF520 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Vishay Siliconix IRF520 is a third-generation N-Channel Power MOSFET designed for commercial and industrial applications. It offers a balance of fast switching speeds, rugged device design, and low on-resistance.

 

Key electrical specifications include a drain-source voltage of 100V and a continuous drain current of 9.2A at 25°C case temperature, decreasing to 6.5A at 100°C. The typical on-resistance is 0.27 Ohms when the gate-source voltage is 10V. The device has a gate threshold voltage of 4V (max) and features fast switching characteristics with rise and fall times of 30nS and 20nS, respectively.

 

This MOSFET is housed in the universally preferred TO-220AB package, known for its low thermal resistance and cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for power dissipation levels up to approximately 50W. The operating junction and storage temperature range is from -55°C to +175°C.

 

The IRF520 is suitable for applications such as switching high power devices, motor speed control, LED dimming, and DC-DC converters. Its simple drive requirements and ease of paralleling further enhance its design flexibility.
