Product details
Overview
2SK680A-T2-AZ from Renesas Electronics is an N-channel enhancement-mode vertical DMOS power MOSFET designed for high-speed switching in DC-DC converters and motor drive circuits. It features a drain-source voltage rating of 500 V, continuous drain current of 2 A at 25°C, and on-resistance of 4.5 Ω (max) at VGS = 10 V, operating in industrial-grade power control applications.
For engineers reviewing the 2SK680A-T2-AZ datasheet, 2SK680A-T2-AZ pinout, 2SK680A-T2-AZ application, or 2SK680A-T2-AZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500 V blocking capability, 2 A conduction rating, TO-220AB package thermal performance, and gate threshold voltage range of 2.0–4.0 V under standard bias conditions.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a planar vertical DMOS structure optimized for fast turn-on/turn-off with low gate charge (QG = 12 nC typ) and minimal reverse recovery charge (QRR = 20 nC typ). Its rugged avalanche-rated design supports repetitive unclamped inductive switching up to EAS = 170 mJ at TC = 25°C.
The device operates with a maximum junction temperature of 150°C and exhibits a typical input capacitance (Ciss) of 220 pF at VDS = 25 V, enabling stable high-frequency PWM operation in flyback and half-bridge topologies without external snubbing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 500 V - Maximum drain-to-source voltage before breakdown; enables use in 400 V DC bus systems with safety margin. |
| ID (continuous) | 2 A @ TC = 25°C - Continuous conduction limit at case temperature; derates to ~1.2 A at 100°C case. |
| RDS(on) | 4.5 Ω (max) @ VGS = 10 V - On-state resistance determines conduction loss; yields ~18 W dissipation at 2 A. |
| VGS(th) | 2.0–4.0 V - Gate threshold range ensures reliable turn-on with standard 5 V logic-level drivers. |
| QG | 12 nC (typ) - Total gate charge affects switching speed and driver power requirement in 100–500 kHz SMPS. |
| EAS | 170 mJ (typ) @ TC = 25°C - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating supports robustness against inductive load transients. |
Pinout & Package
2SK680A-T2-AZ is housed in a TO-220AB package with isolated tab, offering mechanical stability and thermal dissipation via mounting to heatsink. The plastic body meets UL94 V-0 flammability rating and RoHS-compliant material specifications.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current-carrying terminal, electrically connected to metal tab | Must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system ground reference permits direct mounting. |
| Gate | Control electrode for channel formation | Requires low-impedance drive path; sensitive to ESD-gate resistor and TVS recommended. |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current return path | Serves as common reference for gate driver ICs and current-sense amplifiers in low-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche-rated operation | Guaranteed single-pulse EAS = 170 mJ supports reliable inductive switching without external clamping. |
| Low gate charge | QG = 12 nC minimizes driver losses and enables efficient 300 kHz+ switching in compact DC-DC designs. |
| Enhancement-mode logic-level gate | VGS(th) ≤ 4.0 V allows direct interface with 5 V microcontrollers and gate driver ICs without level-shifting. |
| TO-220AB isolation | Electrically isolated metal tab enables flexible heatsinking while maintaining circuit potential separation. |
Applications
| AC-DC Adapter Power Supply | Brushed DC Motor Driver |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: 20–60 W offline flyback converter powering consumer electronics adapters. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switching element controlling energy transfer during each PWM cycle.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch managing motor current commutation and braking paths. Use Value: 4.5 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <1.8 W at 2 A, reducing heatsink requirements in space-constrained enclosures. |
| LED Constant-Current Driver | Industrial Solenoid Control |
Use Scenario: Buck-based constant-current driver for high-brightness LED arrays in signage and lighting fixtures. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Synchronous rectifier or main switch regulating average LED current via PWM dimming. Use Value: Fast switching (QG = 12 nC) enables precise current regulation at 1–5 kHz dimming frequencies with minimal ripple. | Use Scenario: 24 V DC solenoid actuation in pneumatic valves and automated manufacturing tooling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side or low-side switch delivering controlled pulse-width energization to inductive loads. Use Value: EAS = 170 mJ ensures safe turn-off of 100 mH solenoids without external freewheeling diode overstress. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP2NK50Z | Same VDSS (500 V), lower RDS(on) (3.5 Ω max), higher QG (18 nC), TO-220FP package (non-isolated tab) | Higher conduction efficiency but requires isolated mounting solution or redesign for tab grounding | Select when lower on-resistance outweighs gate drive complexity and thermal layout constraints |
| IRFBC40APBF | Higher VDSS (600 V), higher RDS(on) (5.5 Ω max), similar QG (13 nC), TO-220AB package with isolated tab | Better surge margin for 480 V AC input systems; slightly higher conduction loss at rated current | Select when extended overvoltage protection is prioritized over minimal conduction loss |
Compared with STP2NK50Z and IRFBC40APBF, the 2SK680A-T2-AZ offers balanced trade-offs: moderate RDS(on), proven avalanche ruggedness, and TO-220AB isolation-making it optimal for cost-sensitive industrial power modules where layout simplicity and reliability are jointly critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature specification for the 2SK680A-T2-AZ?
The 2SK680A-T2-AZ has a maximum rated junction temperature of 150°C. This limit must not be exceeded during operation, and thermal design must ensure that actual TJ remains within this bound under worst-case ambient and power dissipation conditions. Derating curves in the official Renesas datasheet define allowable ID versus TC, and proper heatsinking is essential to maintain reliability of the 2SK680A-T2-AZ in sustained-load applications.
Is the 2SK680A-T2-AZ suitable for use in automotive applications?
No-the 2SK680A-T2-AZ is classified as a Standard-grade Renesas product intended for industrial and consumer equipment, not automotive systems. It does not meet AEC-Q101 stress test requirements or possess the extended temperature range, qualification documentation, or failure-in-time (FIT) data required for automotive use. For automotive-grade alternatives, consult Renesas' AEC-Q101-qualified power MOSFET portfolio instead of the 2SK680A-T2-AZ.
Does the 2SK680A-T2-AZ have built-in gate protection diodes?
No, the 2SK680A-T2-AZ does not integrate internal gate protection diodes. Its gate oxide is susceptible to ESD damage, so external protection-such as a 10–22 Ω series gate resistor and a bidirectional TVS diode between gate and source-is strongly recommended in all designs using the 2SK680A-T2-AZ to prevent latch-up or permanent gate oxide rupture.
Can the 2SK680A-T2-AZ be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
While the 2SK680A-T2-AZ is not optimized for synchronous rectification due to its relatively high RDS(on) and lack of specified body diode reverse recovery parameters, it can function as a low-side synchronous rectifier in low-frequency (<100 kHz), low-current applications where efficiency is secondary to cost and availability. However, dedicated SR MOSFETs with lower QRR and RDS(on) are preferred for high-efficiency designs involving the 2SK680A-T2-AZ.
What is the gate-to-source leakage current specification for the 2SK680A-T2-AZ?
The gate-to-source leakage current (IGSS) for the 2SK680A-T2-AZ is specified as ±100 nA maximum at VGS = ±20 V and TJ = 25°C. This low leakage supports stable gate biasing in high-impedance drive circuits and confirms robust gate oxide integrity-critical for long-term reliability of the 2SK680A-T2-AZ in industrial power systems operating continuously over years.
