Product details
Overview
GAN111-650WSB from Nexperia is a 650 V, 97 mΩ normally-off gallium nitride (GaN) power FET in TO-247-3L package, combining high-voltage GaN HEMT and low-voltage silicon MOSFET technologies. It delivers 21 A continuous drain current at 25 °C mounting base temperature, 4.1 V typical gate threshold voltage, and ultra-low 0.8 nC gate-drain charge for high-frequency hard/soft switching in industrial and datacom power converters.
For engineers reviewing the GAN111-650WSB datasheet, GAN111-650WSB pinout, GAN111-650WSB application, or GAN111-650WSB equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, thermal resistance (1.0 K/W junction-to-mounting-base), reverse recovery charge (65 nC), source-drain diode forward voltage (1.8 V @ 14 A), and transient overvoltage capability (725 V) to support fast-switching PFC and resonant DC/DC design.
Technical Context
This GaN FET uses Nexperia's H2 technology to achieve normally-off operation with +4 V gate threshold voltage and ±20 V gate oxide rating-enabling robust 0–12 V gate drive without level-shifting. Its low 97 mΩ RDS(on) at 10 VGS and 25 °C, combined with 336 pF input capacitance and 49 pF output capacitance, supports >1 MHz switching in totem-pole PFC and LLC topologies.
The device integrates a monolithic source-drain diode with 18 ns reverse recovery time and 65 nC recovered charge, eliminating external body diode reliance. Thermal performance is defined by 1.0 K/W typical junction-to-mounting-base resistance and 40 K/W junction-to-solder-point resistance, enabling high-power density designs when heatsink-mounted via the source-connected metal base.
Key Specifications

| Rth(j-mb) | 1.0 K/W typical thermal resistance junction-to-mounting base - allows direct thermal path to heatsink for stable 175 °C junction operation |
| VGS(th) | 4.1 V typical gate threshold voltage - ensures strong noise immunity against gate bounce during high-dv/dt switching |
| Qr | 65 nC source-drain diode recovered charge - reduces turn-on loss and EMI in synchronous rectification and bridgeless configurations |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar GaN FET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Transphorm TPH3205WS | 650 V, 55 mΩ, TO-247-3L; lower RDS(on) but higher QG (6.2 nC) and no integrated source-drain diode | Requires external anti-parallel diode in PFC; better suited for low-RDS(on)-critical, lower-frequency (<150 kHz) applications | Select when lowest conduction loss dominates over switching loss and diode integration is not required |
| EPC eGaN FET EPC2218 | 650 V, 80 mΩ, LGA 5×6 mm; no through-hole option, requires PCB-level thermal management | Not compatible with TO-247 heatsink mounting; limited to surface-mount high-density designs with advanced thermal vias | Select only for space-constrained, high-volume SMT production where board-level thermal design is fully controlled |
Compared with TPH3205WS and EPC2218, GAN111-650WSB offers balanced RDS(on)/QG, integrated source-drain diode, and proven TO-247 mechanical reliability-making it optimal for industrial PFC and resonant converter upgrades requiring drop-in GaN replacement with minimal layout change.

FAQ
What gate drive voltage is recommended for GAN111-650WSB?
Nexperia specifies 0 V to +10 V or +12 V gate drive for reliable operation. The device features a +4.1 V typical gate threshold voltage and ±20 V absolute maximum gate-source rating, enabling robust 12 V drive with margin against ringing. A 30 Ω gate resistor is recommended to balance switching speed and oscillation damping.
Does GAN111-650WSB require an external anti-parallel diode?
No. GAN111-650WSB integrates a monolithic source-drain diode with 1.8 V forward voltage at 14 A and 65 nC recovered charge, supporting bidirectional conduction in totem-pole PFC and synchronous rectifier configurations without external diodes.
How is thermal performance validated for TO-247 mounting?
Thermal resistance is specified as 1.0 K/W typical from junction to mounting base (Rth(j-mb)) with the metal base directly attached to a heatsink. This value is measured per JEDEC JESD51-14 and validated using transient dual-interface testing, ensuring accurate prediction of junction temperature under real-world heatsink conditions.
Can GAN111-650WSB replace silicon MOSFETs in existing designs?
Yes-with gate drive and layout review. Its 650 V rating, TO-247-3L footprint, and 0–12 V gate compatibility allow retrofit into many 600 V silicon superjunction MOSFET designs. However, due to faster switching, snubbing (33 pF + 37.5 Ω RC network) and gate ferrite bead (30 Ω @ 100 MHz) are recommended to suppress ringing.
