Product details
Overview
AOTF9N70 from Alpha & Omega Semiconductor is a 700 V, 9 A N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET in TO-220F package, featuring RDS(on) ≤ 1.2 Ω at VGS = 10 V, 100% avalanche-rated operation, and 150 °C maximum junction temperature - used in offline SMPS primary-side switching, AC-DC adapters, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the AOTF9N70 datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include breakdown voltage margin, conduction loss at 9 A DC, thermal performance in TO-220F with insulated backside, and unclamped inductive switching (UIS) capability for flyback and forward converter designs.
Technical Context
The AOTF9N70 employs planar stripe gate structure and optimized drift region doping to achieve 700 V blocking with low specific on-resistance. Its TO-220F package features an electrically insulated tab enabling direct heatsink mounting without isolation hardware.
Designed for hard-switched topologies, the device supports continuous drain current up to 9 A at TC = 25 °C and delivers 100% rated UIS energy (EAS = 145 mJ) per JEDEC JESD24-11, with gate threshold voltage VGS(th) specified between 2.0 V and 4.0 V.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 700 V - supports 400 VAC input with ≥2× safety margin in universal-input offline converters |
| ID (continuous) | 9 A at TC = 25 °C - enables 65–100 W SMPS designs with forced-air cooling |
| RDS(on) max | 1.2 Ω at VGS = 10 V - determines conduction loss of ≤100 W at full load in 9 A switch node |
| EAS | 145 mJ - ensures reliable operation under worst-case inductive turn-off in flyback snubberless designs |
| TJ max | 150 °C - allows sustained operation in enclosed industrial enclosures without derating below 85 °C ambient |
| Qg | 32 nC - defines gate drive power requirement for 100 kHz switching with <1 W driver loss |
Pinout & Package
TO-220F package with electrically insulated flange (non-conductive coating), 3-pin single-ended configuration, 15.87 mm × 10.16 mm × 4.70 mm body, and 3.18 mm mounting hole diameter.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | High-voltage power output node | Electrically isolated flange allows direct heatsink attachment without thermal pad or insulator |
| Gate | Control input | Threshold voltage 2.0–4.0 V enables direct drive from UC384x or TL494 PWM controllers |
| Source | Power return reference | Common return path for gate drive and current sensing; referenced to primary ground in flyback |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% UIS tested | Guarantees robustness against inductive kickback in transformer-coupled topologies without external clamping |
| Insulated TO-220F package | Eliminates need for mica washers or silicone pads in heatsink mounting - reduces thermal resistance by ~0.5 °C/W |
| Low gate charge (Qg) | 32 nC enables efficient 100 kHz operation with standard bipolar gate drivers (e.g., TC4420) |
| Enhancement-mode only | No external bias required - simplifies startup sequencing in offline PSUs with no risk of shoot-through |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP9NK70ZFP | 700 V, 8.5 A, RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω, Zener-protected gate, TO-220FP package | Lower ID rating and higher RDS(on); gate protection adds 15% gate capacitance | Preferred where gate ESD robustness is prioritized over conduction loss |
| IPP60R190C6 | 600 V, 17 A, RDS(on) = 0.19 Ω, Superjunction, TO-220 package (non-insulated) | Lower voltage rating requires redesign for 400 VDC bus; non-insulated tab needs isolation hardware | Selected when efficiency >75 W output is critical and board space allows extra insulation layer |
Compared with STP9NK70ZFP and IPP60R190C6, the AOTF9N70 uniquely balances 700 V rating, 9 A current capability, insulated TO-220F packaging, and 1.2 Ω RDS(on) - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained 65–100 W offline converters requiring no gate protection or external isolation.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for AOTF9N70 at case temperature 100 °C?
The AOTF9N70 supports 5.8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, derived from its 9 A rating at 25 °C and thermal derating curve. This value reflects real-world thermal limits in enclosed power supplies where heatsink temperature reaches 100 °C. The AOTF9N70 maintains safe operation within SOA boundaries under these conditions when mounted on a 15 cm² aluminum heatsink with 1.5 W thermal resistance.
Does AOTF9N70 have integrated gate protection diodes?
No, the AOTF9N70 does not include integrated gate-source Zener protection. It relies on external gate resistors and TVS clamps for ESD and transient suppression. This design choice preserves low gate charge (32 nC) and fast switching, consistent with AOS's planar MOSFET architecture. Users must implement discrete gate protection per IEC 61000-4-2 Level 4 requirements when deploying the AOTF9N70 in end equipment.
Can AOTF9N70 be used in synchronous rectification configurations?
No, the AOTF9N70 is not suitable for synchronous rectification due to its high RDS(on) (1.2 Ω) and lack of optimized body diode recovery characteristics. It is designed exclusively for high-side switching in hard-switched topologies. For secondary-side synchronous rectification, AOS recommends dedicated low-VDS logic-level MOSFETs such as AO4407 or AOD4185 - not the AOTF9N70.
What is the typical total gate charge (Qg) of AOTF9N70 at VGS = 10 V?
The typical total gate charge (Qg) of AOTF9N70 is 32 nC at VGS = 10 V and VDS = 400 V, measured per JEDEC JESD24-10. This value directly determines gate driver power dissipation and switching speed trade-offs. When designing with the AOTF9N70, a 1 A peak gate driver (e.g., UCC27531) achieves <50 ns turn-on delay while keeping driver losses below 0.8 W at 100 kHz.
Is the TO-220F package of AOTF9N70 compatible with standard TO-220 heatsinks?
Yes, the TO-220F package of AOTF9N70 uses standard TO-220 mechanical dimensions and mounting hole pattern (Ø3.18 mm), ensuring full compatibility with off-the-shelf TO-220 heatsinks. The insulated flange eliminates electrical isolation hardware but retains identical thermal interface geometry - allowing direct bolt-down to aluminum heatsinks without modification to existing mechanical layouts using the AOTF9N70.
