Product details
Overview
2SK2425-E from Renesas Electronics is a silicon N-channel power MOSFET designed for high-speed switching in DC-DC converters and switching regulators. It features 250 V VDSS, 7 A continuous drain current, 0.4 Ω typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 5.0 S forward transfer admittance, and TO-220CFM package with isolated tab.
For engineers reviewing the 2SK2425-E datasheet, 2SK2425-E pinout, 2SK2425-E application, or 2SK2425-E equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical parameters, thermal derating behavior, switching timing (td(on) = 13 ns, tf = 37 ns), body diode recovery (trr = 180 ns), and safe operating area limits - all critical for hard-switched SMPS design.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a planar vertical DMOS structure optimized for low conduction loss and fast turn-on/turn-off transitions. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(off) = 2.0–3.0 V) enables reliable enhancement-mode operation with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level drive, while the absence of secondary breakdown supports robust transient handling in inductive load switching.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.0 V forward voltage at 7 A and 180 ns reverse recovery time under di/dt = 100 A/µs - characteristics directly validated for synchronous rectification and freewheeling roles in buck and flyback topologies operating up to several hundred kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 250 V - Withstands up to 250 V drain-source blocking voltage, suitable for 200 V-class input rails in industrial DC-DC stages. |
| RDS(on) | 0.4 Ω (typ) at VGS = 10 V - Delivers ≤11.2 W conduction loss at 7 A, enabling thermally efficient operation without forced cooling in 30 W–60 W converters. |
| td(on)/tf | 13 ns / 37 ns - Enables clean switching at ≥500 kHz with minimal overlap loss; validated under 7.5 Ω gate drive and 30 V VDD. |
| Ciss/Coss | 690 pF / 265 pF - Low input/output capacitance reduces gate drive power and improves EMI profile in high-frequency SMPS designs. |
| trr | 180 ns - Body diode recovery time measured at 7 A, 100 A/µs di/dt; supports non-synchronous flyback and boost freewheeling with predictable snubber sizing. |
| Pch | 30 W at Tc = 25°C - Specifies maximum channel dissipation with heatsink; derates linearly to zero at 150°C case temperature. |
| Tch | 150°C - Maximum allowable junction temperature; requires thermal design ensuring θjc + θcs + θsa ≤ 4.17°C/W for full 30 W rating. |
Pinout & Package
2SK2425-E uses the TO-220CFM (RENESAS code PRSS0003AE-A) package with electrically isolated metal tab (drain-connected), facilitating direct mounting to heatsinks without insulating hardware.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives voltage-controlled signal to modulate channel conductivity; requires ≤±30 V gate-source swing and ≤±10 µA leakage. |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side power terminal | Connected to switched high-voltage rail; electrically tied to isolated metal tab for thermal conduction and EMI shielding. |
| 3 (Source) | Reference node | Serves as return path for load current and gate drive reference; must be routed with low inductance to minimize switching overshoot. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Low RDS(on) | 0.4 Ω typ at 10 V drive - Reduces I²R losses in high-current paths, improving efficiency in 5–12 V output converters delivering >5 A. |
| No secondary breakdown | Guaranteed safe operation under inductive switching stress - Eliminates need for voltage clamping circuits in hard-switched topologies. |
| High-speed switching | 13 ns turn-on delay + 37 ns fall time - Supports >300 kHz operation with minimal dead-time requirements in half-bridge configurations. |
| Low gate charge | Qg ≈ 40 nC (inferred from gate charge curve at VDS = 50 V, ID = 7 A) - Minimizes driver power consumption and simplifies gate driver selection. |
| Integrated body diode | VDF = 1.0 V at 7 A - Provides defined freewheeling path with predictable conduction loss and recovery behavior in non-synchronous designs. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP20NM50FP | 500 V VDSS, 20 A ID, 0.23 Ω RDS(on), TO-220FP package (non-isolated tab) | Higher voltage/current rating but requires insulated mounting hardware; slower tf (60 ns) limits high-frequency use. | Select when higher blocking voltage or current headroom is needed, and thermal interface permits isolation washers. |
| IRFZ44NPBF | 55 V VDSS, 49 A ID, 0.028 Ω RDS(on), TO-220AB package (non-isolated tab) | Lower voltage rating precludes 200+ V applications; superior RDS(on) benefits low-voltage, high-current loads only. | Choose only for ≤60 V systems where ultra-low on-resistance justifies redesigning heatsink interface and layout. |
Compared with STP20NM50FP and IRFZ44NPBF, the 2SK2425-E offers optimal balance of 250 V capability, 0.4 Ω conduction loss, and TO-220CFM isolation - making it uniquely suited for 100–250 V industrial SMPS where safety-rated heatsinking and mid-range power density are required.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for the 2SK2425-E?
The 2SK2425-E has a continuous drain current (ID) rating of 7 A at Tc = 25°C. This value decreases with rising case temperature per the derating curve - at 100°C case temperature, the usable ID drops to approximately 3.5 A. The 2SK2425-E must be mounted on an adequately sized heatsink to maintain Tc within limits for sustained 7 A operation.
Does the 2SK2425-E have an electrically isolated tab?
Yes, the 2SK2425-E uses the TO-220CFM package (RENESAS code PRSS0003AE-A) with an electrically isolated metal tab that is internally connected to the drain. This allows direct mechanical attachment to a grounded heatsink without requiring insulating pads or shoulder washers, simplifying thermal design and reducing assembly cost.
What is the gate threshold voltage range for the 2SK2425-E?
The 2SK2425-E has a gate-to-source cutoff voltage (VGS(off)) of 2.0 V minimum to 3.0 V maximum, measured at ID = 1 mA and VDS = 10 V. This confirms its enhancement-mode behavior and compatibility with standard 5 V logic-level gate drivers, though 10 V drive is recommended to achieve rated RDS(on).
Can the 2SK2425-E be used in synchronous rectification applications?
No - the 2SK2425-E is not optimized for synchronous rectification due to its relatively high body diode forward voltage (1.0 V at 7 A) and 180 ns reverse recovery time. Its design targets primary-side switching in non-synchronous topologies like flyback and forward converters. For synchronous rectification, discrete low-VF Schottky diodes or dedicated SR controllers with logic-level MOSFETs are preferred.
What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation for the 2SK2425-E at DC operation?
At DC operation with Tc = 25°C, the 2SK2425-E's safe operating area is limited by its 30 W channel dissipation rating and 250 V VDSS. For example, at VDS = 100 V, the maximum sustainable ID is ~0.3 A; at VDS = 20 V, it rises to ~1.5 A. Pulse operation extends SOA significantly - the datasheet shows 28 A peak current capability for ≤10 µs pulses.
