Typical applications
With its 400 V drain–source rating the IRFP350LC sits in the medium-high-voltage class of switching MOSFETs, typically found in telecom and industrial DC rails, boost and flyback converters, LED and backlight drivers and power-factor-correction stages. Common where the bus sits well above 100 V but below rectified mains.
Gate drive and switching notes
Keep gate–source voltage within the ±30 V maximum; exceeding it punctures the gate oxide and destroys the device permanently.
Switching behaviour is characterised by an output capacitance (Coss) of 390 pF, which together with the gate drive determines switching loss and the practical upper frequency limit.
Choosing a replacement for the IRFP350LC
A drop-in substitute for the IRFP350LC should match its polarity and offer a drain–source rating of at least 400 V and a continuous drain current rating of at least 16 A.
Mechanically, check the replacement against the TO247AC footprint and confirm the pin order — parts sharing a package outline do not always share a pinout.
Where the application switches inductive loads or runs near the voltage limit, keep extra headroom rather than choosing a part that only just meets the original numbers.
Frequently asked questions
What is the IRFP350LC?
The IRFP350LC is a MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). It is rated for 400 V drain-source and 16 A continuous drain current.
What is the maximum voltage of the IRFP350LC?
The IRFP350LC has a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 400 V. Treat this as an absolute maximum and design with margin, especially when switching inductive loads.
How much current can the IRFP350LC handle?
It is rated for 16 A of continuous drain current, with power dissipation limited to 190 W. Real-world capability depends on your heatsinking and ambient temperature.
What package does the IRFP350LC come in?
It is listed in TO247AC. Verify the pinout of the specific variant, as one outline can carry different pin assignments.
What can I use to replace the IRFP350LC?
This page lists 17 candidate equivalents matched on electrical ratings and package. Any replacement should meet or exceed the original voltage, current and dissipation figures and use a compatible drive level.
