The IRFZ44VSTRL: The device comes in a D2PAK (TO-263) surface-mount package, which suits automated assembly and provides a large solder tab for heat sinking. Typical applications include DC-DC converters, motor drives, battery management, and power supply switching stages where a 60 V blocking voltage and low conduction loss are required.
16.5 mΩ Rds(on) — conduction loss in the BOM
At 31 A drain current the Rds(on) is characterized, but the 55 A continuous rating means the designer must derate for junction temperature — the 175 °C maximum junction rating provides headroom for high-temperature operation in engine-bay or industrial environments.
Infineon no longer manufactures this specific order code, so new production buys are not possible through the factory channel. Sourcing is limited to surplus inventory, broker networks, and independent distributors who hold remaining stock or can locate it from existing supply chains.
