Product details
Overview
SCTW90N65G2V from STMicroelectronics is a silicon carbide (SiC) Power MOSFET designed for high-efficiency, high-frequency switching in demanding power conversion systems. It delivers 650 V VDS, 24 mΩ RDS(on) max at 18 V VGS, 119 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and operates up to 200 °C junction temperature - enabling compact, high-power-density designs in solar inverters and industrial DC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the SCTW90N65G2V datasheet, SCTW90N65G2V pinout, SCTW90N65G2V application, or SCTW90N65G2V equivalent, key selection criteria include its ultra-low Qg (157 nC), robust body diode with 17 ns trr, stable RDS(on) over temperature, and HiP247 package thermal performance (Rthj-case = 0.31 °C/W).
Technical Context
This SiC MOSFET employs ST's second-generation trench-gate SiC technology, delivering low conduction loss (18 mΩ typ. at 25 °C) and near-temperature-invariant switching energy. Its gate threshold voltage (1.9–5.0 V) and ±100 nA IGSS support reliable drive under wide thermal and voltage margins.
The device integrates a fast, low-loss intrinsic body diode (VSD = 2.5 V at 30 A, Qrr = 308 nC), eliminating need for external anti-parallel Si diodes in bridge topologies. Switching behavior is characterized by low Ciss (3380 pF), Coss (294 pF), and Crss (49 pF) at 400 V, enabling operation above 100 kHz with minimal EMI impact.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 650 V - supports 400 V DC bus systems with >50% safety margin for transient overvoltage in PV and EV charging applications |
| RDS(on) max | 24 mΩ at VGS = 18 V, ID = 50 A - enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 50 A, reducing heatsink requirements |
| ID (cont.) | 119 A at TC = 25 °C - sustains high output power in single-device configurations for 10–20 kW converters |
| TJ max | 200 °C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient environments without derating |
| Qg | 157 nC - reduces gate driver power demand and enables use of lower-cost, lower-current drivers |
| trr | 17 ns - minimizes reverse recovery losses and shoot-through risk in hard-switched half/full bridges |
| Rthj-case | 0.31 °C/W - supports >500 W dissipation with standard heatsink mounting, critical for high-power density designs |
Pinout & Package
The SCTW90N65G2V is housed in the HiP247 package - a thermally enhanced variant of TO-247 with isolated tab, optimized for high-current, high-thermal-load applications. The package features a copper leadframe, low-inductance internal construction, and 20 mm × 15.6 mm footprint with 5.45 mm pitch (e).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Tab) | Drain (exposed metal tab) | Primary heat path to heatsink; electrically connected to drain - requires insulated mounting or direct thermal interface |
| G (Pin 1) | Gate | High-impedance control terminal; driven with -5 V to +18 V; sensitive to ESD and ringing due to low Ciss/Crss ratio |
| S (Pin 3) | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; low-inductance Kelvin source pin not present - layout must minimize source loop inductance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 200 °C max operating junction temperature | Enables full-rated power delivery in ambient temperatures up to 105 °C without derating, reducing system cooling complexity |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| C3M0065090D (Wolfspeed) | Same 650 V/90 mΩ rating but 90 A ID (TC=25°C); higher Ciss (4200 pF) and Qg (192 nC) | Limited to lower-current designs; less suitable for >15 kW where thermal headroom is critical | Select when gate drive strength exceeds 2 A peak and layout prioritizes cost over thermal margin |
| IXYS120N65X2 (Littelfuse) | 650 V/120 A rating but 27 mΩ RDS(on); higher Eon/Eoff (165/245 µJ) and 200 °C TJ limit | Requires larger heatsink for same power; slower switching increases filter size in high-frequency designs | Select when legacy PCB layout uses TO-247-3L and gate driver is already optimized for higher Qg |
Compared with C3M0065090D and IXYS120N65X2, SCTW90N65G2V offers superior thermal performance (0.31 °C/W vs ≥0.45 °C/W), lowest Qg among 650 V/100+ A SiC MOSFETs, and best-in-class body diode softness - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability renewable energy and industrial power systems.

FAQ
What is the recommended gate resistor value for SCTW90N65G2V in a 40 kHz phase-shifted full-bridge?
A 2.2 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet for 400 V VDD, 50 A ID, and -5 V to +18 V gate swing - achieving 26 ns td(on), 38 ns tr, 58 ns td(off), and 16 ns tf. For 40 kHz operation with ZVS, this value balances switching speed, gate oscillation damping, and driver stress. Lower values (<1.5 Ω) increase dV/dt-induced noise; higher values (>3.3 Ω) raise Eon/Eoff by >15%.
Can SCTW90N65G2V replace a silicon IGBT in a 15 kW solar inverter without redesigning the gate driver?
No - the gate drive requirements differ significantly. This SiC MOSFET needs ±18 V gate voltage (vs ±15 V for most IGBTs), lower gate resistance (2.2 Ω typical vs 10–22 Ω), and faster transient response. Its 157 nC Qg demands >1.5 A peak gate current, exceeding many IGBT drivers. A dedicated SiC-optimized gate driver (e.g., STGAP2S, UCC5870) with negative turn-off bias is required for reliable operation.
Is the HiP247 package RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes - the SCTW90N65G2V HiP247 package meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is halogen-free per IEC 61249-2-21. ST's ECOPACK2 specification confirms compliance with JEDEC J-STD-020 moisture sensitivity level (MSL) 1 and lead-free reflow profile (peak 260 °C). Full material declarations are available via ST's product change notification (PCN) database.
Does the intrinsic body diode support bidirectional conduction in a dual-active-bridge (DAB) converter?
Yes - the SiC body diode conducts in reverse with VSD = 2.5 V at 30 A and exhibits soft, low-noise reverse recovery (trr = 17 ns, Qrr = 308 nC). In DAB operation, it enables zero-voltage switching during phase-shift transitions without external antiparallel diodes, verified in ST's AN5025 application note for 10 kW DAB designs.
