Product details
Overview
DMN90H8D5HCT from Diodes Incorporated is a 900V N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO220AB (Type TH) package, rated for 2.5A continuous drain current at TC = +25°C, with RDS(ON) = 5.5Ω (typ) @ VGS = 10V and low input capacitance (Ciss = 470pF), used in high-voltage DC-DC converters and motor control stages where fast switching and avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 97mJ) are critical.
For engineers reviewing the DMN90H8D5HCT datasheet, DMN90H8D5HCT pinout, DMN90H8D5HCT application, or DMN90H8D5HCT equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, thermal behavior under pulsed SOA, gate charge profile (Qg = 7.9nC), body diode recovery (tRR = 375ns), and real-world junction-to-case thermal resistance (RθJC = 1°C/W) - all essential for high-reliability 900V power stage design.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar silicon process architecture optimized for high-voltage blocking and low conduction loss trade-off. Its 900V BVDSS rating enables direct use in 400–800V bus applications without series stacking, while its 1.2Ω gate resistance and 2.9nC Qgd support controlled turn-off dv/dt in hard-switched topologies.
The device integrates an intrinsic body diode with VSD = 0.84V (typ) @ IS = 2A and tRR = 375ns under dI/dt = 100A/μs, enabling operation in freewheeling and synchronous rectification roles where reverse recovery robustness matters - confirmed by SOA curves validated up to PW = 1µs at TJ(max) = 150°C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| BVDSS | 900V - supports direct connection to 800V DC bus without derating or series configuration |
| RDS(ON) | 5.5Ω (typ) @ VGS = 10V - enables <1.4W conduction loss at 1.5A ID, suitable for thermally constrained designs |
| ID (TC = +25°C) | 2.5A - defines maximum steady-state current with heatsink at ambient temperature |
| Ciss / Coss / Crss | 470pF / 45pF / 0.6pF - low Crss minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk in half-bridge layouts |
| Qg / Qgs / Qgd | 7.9nC / 2.5nC / 2.9nC - enables efficient gate drive with <1W average power at 100kHz switching |
| EAS | 97mJ - guarantees single-pulse avalanche capability under inductive load interruption without failure |
| RθJC | 1°C/W - allows precise junction temperature estimation using case temperature measurement in production |
Pinout & Package
TO220AB (Type TH) package with standard three-terminal layout: Drain connected to tab (electrically active), Source and Gate on leads. Mounting requires insulated hardware due to tab-drain connection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main high-side current path | Electrically tied to metal tab - must be isolated from heatsink unless system ground reference permits |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-inductance return path; critical for accurate RDS(ON)-based current monitoring |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | Requires <±30V absolute rating; 1.2Ω internal RG limits ringing but mandates careful PCB routing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High BVDSS with low RDS(ON) ratio | 900V breakdown achieved with only 5.5Ω on-resistance - reduces conduction loss in HV SMPS without sacrificing voltage margin |
| Low Crss (0.6pF) | Minimizes Miller plateau duration and gate drive energy, improving efficiency in 50–200kHz hard-switched converters |
| Avalanche-rated (EAS = 97mJ) | Enables reliable operation in inductive switching circuits without external snubbers or clamps |
| RoHS-compliant & Halogen-free | Meets IEC 61249-2-21:2017; <900ppm Br+Cl total - supports environmental compliance in industrial and medical end equipment |
| Fast body diode recovery (tRR = 375ns) | Reduces switching losses in freewheeling paths and improves reliability in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation |

FAQ
Is DMN90H8D5HCT suitable for automotive applications?
No - DMN90H8D5HCT is not AEC-Q101 qualified and lacks PPAP documentation or IATF 16949 manufacturing certification. Diodes explicitly states that automotive-grade versions require separate qualification and direct engagement with their sales team. This part is intended for industrial and commercial power systems only.
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for continuous operation?
The device supports continuous operation up to TJ = +150°C, as confirmed by its SOA curve (Figure 12) and thermal resistance data (RθJC = 1°C/W). At TC = +100°C, the continuous drain current is derated to 1.5A - exceeding this requires active thermal monitoring or reduced duty cycling.
Can DMN90H8D5HCT replace older 800V MOSFETs like STP8NK80ZFP?
Yes - with design validation. DMN90H8D5HCT offers higher BVDSS (900V vs. 800V), lower RDS(ON) (5.5Ω vs. 7.5Ω), and superior EAS (97mJ vs. 60mJ), but gate threshold voltage is higher (3.0–5.0V vs. 2.0–4.0V), requiring gate drive redesign to ensure full enhancement at lower voltages.
Does the TO220AB tab connect to Drain or Source?
The metal tab is internally connected to the Drain terminal - confirmed by Diodes' mechanical drawings and pin-out diagrams. This requires electrical isolation from the heatsink unless the system's high-side ground reference permits direct mounting, otherwise creepage/clearance risks arise.
