About this manual

The FQPF17N40 MOSFET is built with Fairchild’s planar stripe DMOS technology, offering a 400 V drain‑source rating, 9.5 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, and a low on‑resistance of 0.272 Ω at VGS = 10 V. It is designed for high‑efficiency switch‑mode power supplies and half‑bridge lamp ballast applications.

The device is supplied in a TO‑220F package, supports a gate‑source voltage of up to +30 V, and includes specifications such as low gate charge (≈45 nC), low output capacitance, and robust avalanche capability. Thermal management is aided by a junction‑to‑case resistance of 2.23 °C/W and a junction‑to‑ambient resistance of 62.5 °C/W.
