Product details
Overview
AOD780A70 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 700V, 28A N-channel power MOSFET in TO-252 (DPAK) package, featuring 0.78Ω max RDS(ON), 11.5nC typical gate charge, and 1.4mJ Eoss at 400V - optimized for high-voltage PFC and LLC resonant converter stages in server, gaming, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the AOD780A70 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (100% UIS tested), body-diode reverse recovery performance (trr = 230ns, Qrr = 2.5mC), thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.5°C/W), and aMOS5™ technology enabling low EMI switching in high-frequency SMPS designs.
Technical Context
This device implements a planar high-voltage trench-gated structure using proprietary aMOS5™ process, delivering enhanced dv/dt ruggedness (100 V/ns) and robust unclamped inductive switching capability. Its optimized gate charge profile (Qgd/Qg = 24%) supports clean turn-off with reduced Miller-induced oscillation in hard-switched topologies.
The integrated body diode exhibits fast reverse recovery (trr = 230ns, IRM = 16.5A) and low forward voltage (VSD = 1.2V typ), enabling reliable operation in synchronous rectification and bidirectional power flow applications without external Schottky supplementation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP7NK80ZFP | 800V VDSS, 0.85Ω RDS(ON), 14nC Qg, TO-220FP package | Higher RDS(ON) and gate charge increase conduction and switching losses; through-hole mounting limits board density | Preferred where legacy TO-220 layout exists and thermal mass mitigates higher losses |
| IXFH30N65X2 | 650V VDSS, 0.145Ω RDS(ON), 32nC Qg, TO-247 package | Lower voltage rating restricts use to 300V AC input systems; higher Qg demands stronger gate drive | Selected when ultra-low RDS(ON) dominates design priority and 650V rating suffices |
Compared with STP7NK80ZFP and IXFH30N65X2, the AOD780A70 delivers optimal balance of 700V rating, DPAK thermal performance, and low-loss switching for next-gen compact power supplies - avoiding TO-220 layout constraints while offering higher voltage margin than 650V alternatives.

FAQ
What is the maximum junction temperature rating for the AOD780A70?
The AOD780A70 has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of 150°C, validated under continuous operation with proper heatsinking. This rating is used to calculate safe operating area limits and thermal de-rating curves - for example, power dissipation must be reduced linearly above 25°C case temperature per the 1.5°C/W RθJC specification. The AOD780A70 maintains stable RDS(ON) and avalanche performance up to this limit.
Does the AOD780A70 support ZVS operation in LLC resonant converters?
Yes, the AOD780A70 supports ZVS operation due to its low output capacitance energy (Eoss = 1.4mJ at 400V) and optimized Coss profile (Co(er) = 16.5pF). These characteristics minimize turn-on switching loss and enable reliable zero-voltage switching in LLC topologies operating up to 350kHz. The AOD780A70's 230ns body-diode trr further ensures clean resonant current commutation during dead-time intervals.
Is the AOD780A70 pin-compatible with AOI780A70?
No, the AOD780A70 (TO-252/DPAK) and AOI780A70 (TO-251/IPAK) are not pin-compatible despite identical electrical specifications. Their packages differ mechanically: AOD780A70 uses a 3-lead surface-mount DPAK with exposed drain pad, while AOI780A70 uses a 3-lead IPAK with isolated drain tab. PCB layout, thermal pad design, and solder reflow profiles must be redesigned when substituting between AOD780A70 and AOI780A70.
What is the significance of 100% Rg testing for the AOD780A70?
100% Rg (gate resistance) testing on every AOD780A70 unit ensures tight distribution of internal gate resistance (3.1Ω typ) across production lots. This guarantees consistent gate drive timing, predictable Miller plateau duration, and repeatable switching waveforms - critical for EMI control and multi-phase synchronization in high-density power supplies. The AOD780A70's verified Rg eliminates need for external gate resistors in many designs.
Can the AOD780A70 replace older 800V MOSFETs in existing PFC designs?
The AOD780A70 can replace older 800V MOSFETs only if the design operates within its 700V VDSS rating and accounts for differences in gate charge (11.5nC), RDS(ON) (0.78Ω max), and thermal resistance (RθJC = 1.5°C/W). While its 800V BVDSS test level provides margin, sustained operation above 700V violates absolute maximum ratings. The AOD780A70's improved body-diode recovery and lower Eoss may enhance efficiency but require gate driver validation.
