Product details
Overview
SPB21N10 G from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode SIPMOS™ power MOSFET in PG-TO263-3-2 (D²PAK) package, rated for 100 V VDS, 21 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, and 80 mΩ RDS(on) max at VGS = 10 V. It operates up to 175°C junction temperature, features avalanche rating (EAS = 130 mJ), and is RoHS-compliant - used in high-reliability DC-DC converters and motor control half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the SPB21N10 G datasheet, SPB21N10 G pinout, SPB21N10 G application, or SPB21N10 G equivalent, key selection criteria include its 6 kV/µs dv/dt capability, 1.7 K/W RthJC, integrated body diode with 65–81.5 ns trr, and gate charge profile (Qg = 28.9–38.4 nC) critical for switching loss optimization in 100 kHz–500 kHz SMPS designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-based SIPMOS™ process optimized for low conduction loss and robust unclamped inductive switching (UIS) performance. Its 100 V breakdown voltage supports 48 V industrial bus systems, while the 175°C maximum junction temperature enables operation in sealed enclosures without forced air cooling.
The device integrates a fast, soft-recovery body diode (trr = 65–81.5 ns, Qrr = 153–192 nC) and exhibits stable RDS(on) over temperature (240 mΩ typ at Tj = 175°C, ID = 15 A), making it suitable for synchronous rectification and bidirectional power flow in isolated DC-DC topologies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - supports 48 V nominal input systems with ≥2× safety margin against transients |
| RDS(on) max | 80 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, Tj = 25°C - enables ≤1.7 W conduction loss at 15 A DC |
| ID cont | 21 A at TC = 25°C - requires heatsink for >10 A continuous operation at ambient |
| EAS | 130 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - withstands inductive kickback in relay/motor drive snubberless designs |
| dv/dt rating | 6 kV/µs - ensures noise-immune operation in high-di/dt environments like H-bridge PWM |
| Qg | 28.9–38.4 nC - determines gate driver peak current requirement (~2.5 A for 15 ns rise time) |
| tr/tf | 56–84 ns / 23–35 ns - sets minimum practical switching period for <500 kHz hard-switched converters |
Pinout & Package
SPB21N10 G uses the PG-TO263-3-2 (D²PAK) surface-mount package with exposed drain pad for thermal performance. The case is electrically connected to the drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source connection | Low-side reference node; ties to PCB ground plane for EMI control and thermal path |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOS gate requiring <100 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD and ringing |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Power output / high-side switch node | Exposed copper pad on underside - must be soldered to ≥6 cm² copper area for RthJA = 40 K/W |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche-rated operation | 130 mJ single-pulse energy handling without failure - eliminates need for external clamping in inductive loads |
| 175°C maximum junction temperature | Enables full 21 A rating in sealed industrial enclosures without active cooling |
| RoHS-compliant & lead-free | Meets EU Directive 2011/65/EU; compatible with standard Pb-free reflow profiles (peak 260°C) |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 65–81.5 ns with soft recovery - reduces voltage overshoot and EMI in synchronous buck freewheeling |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 100 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP21NM10 | RDS(on) = 85 mΩ (typ), lower Qg (25 nC), TO-220 package | Limited to lower-power applications due to higher thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.5 K/W) | Prefer for cost-sensitive, lower-current (<12 A) designs where SMT assembly is not required |
| IRF540NPBF | VDS = 100 V, RDS(on) = 44 mΩ, but no avalanche rating or dv/dt spec | Not qualified for inductive switching without external protection; unsuitable for snubberless motor drives | Select only for purely resistive loads or where external clamping is acceptable |
Compared with STP21NM10 and IRF540NPBF, SPB21N10 G delivers superior thermal performance (RthJC = 1.7 K/W), guaranteed avalanche ruggedness, and industry-leading dv/dt immunity - making it the preferred choice for compact, high-reliability industrial and telecom power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for SPB21N10 G?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V per datasheet Rev 2.2. Operation above +20 V risks irreversible gate oxide damage; recommended drive is 10–15 V for optimal RDS(on) and safe margin. Gate drive circuits must include clamping (e.g., Zener diode) to prevent overshoot during fast switching.
Does SPB21N10 G require a gate resistor, and what value is recommended?
Yes - a gate resistor (RG) is required to control dV/dt and suppress oscillation. For 100–300 kHz operation with typical 2 A gate drivers, RG = 10–22 Ω balances switching speed and EMI. Lower values increase peak gate current and risk ringing; higher values slow turn-on/off and raise switching losses.
Can SPB21N10 G be used in parallel configurations?
Yes, but with strict layout and gate drive matching. Use individual gate resistors (≤5 Ω difference), symmetrical PCB traces, and Kelvin source connections to ensure current sharing. Thermal coupling via shared heatsink is essential - mismatched RDS(on) temperature coefficients cause current hogging above 125°C.
Is SPB21N10 G suitable for linear (analog) operation, such as constant-current regulation?
No - it is optimized for switching, not linear mode. Continuous operation in the ohmic region causes localized hot-spot formation and thermal runaway due to positive RDS(on) temperature coefficient and limited Safe Operating Area (SOA) at low VDS. Use dedicated linear regulators or bipolar transistors for analog biasing.
