Product details
Overview
SPP10N10 from Infineon Technologies is an N-channel enhancement-mode SIPMOS™ power MOSFET rated for 100 V drain-source voltage, 10.3 A continuous drain current at 25°C case temperature, and 180 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features avalanche rating, 6 kV/µs dv/dt capability, and operates up to 175°C junction temperature - deployed in DC-DC converter primary-side switching and motor drive half-bridge legs.
For engineers reviewing the SPP10N10 datasheet, SPP10N10 pinout, SPP10N10 application, or SPP10N10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its TO-220-3 package thermal resistance (RthJC = 3 K/W), gate threshold voltage range (2.1–4 V), and pulsed drain current rating of 41.2 A - critical for hard-switched SMPS and brushed DC motor control designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses planar SIPMOS™ technology optimized for low conduction loss and robust unclamped inductive switching (UIS) performance. Its 100 V V(BR)DSS supports 48 V bus systems with margin, while the 175°C Tjmax enables high-temperature industrial operation without derating penalties.
The device integrates a fast-recovery body diode (trr and Qrr specified) and exhibits 6 kV/µs dv/dt immunity - enabling reliable operation in noisy, high-di/dt environments such as solenoid drivers and H-bridge inverters without external snubbing.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - supports 48 V nominal input rails with ≥2× safety margin against transients |
| RDS(on) | 180 mΩ max at VGS = 10 V - determines I²R conduction loss in 10 A load applications |
| ID (continuous) | 10.3 A at TC = 25°C - defines maximum steady-state current with heatsink |
| EAS | 60 mJ - quantifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling in inductive turn-off |
| dv/dt rating | 6 kV/µs - ensures immunity to parasitic turn-on during high-speed switching |
| Tj max | 175°C - allows operation in sealed enclosures or high ambient temperature environments |
| VGS(th) | 2.1–4 V - enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V logic with sufficient overdrive margin |
Pinout & Package
Package: P-TO220-3-1 - through-hole, isolated tab, standard TO-220 outline with drain-connected metal tab for thermal and electrical mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Reference node for gate drive; connects to low-side return path or ground plane |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control electrode | High-impedance input requiring <100 nA leakage; driven by dedicated gate driver IC |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Main current output | Internally connected to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system design permits common-drain topology |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Avalanche rated | 60 mJ single-pulse EAS - eliminates need for external clamping in relay/snubberless inductive loads |
| 175°C operating temperature | Full-rated current available up to 175°C Tj - reduces thermal derating in compact industrial controls |
| dv/dt rated | 6 kV/µs immunity - prevents false turn-on in high-noise motor drive and power supply environments |
| N-channel enhancement mode | VGS(th) = 2.1–4 V - compatible with standard microcontroller GPIO or level-shifted gate drivers |
| Low RDS(on) | 180 mΩ max - limits conduction loss to ≤1.87 W at 10.3 A, simplifying thermal design |
Applications
| Brushed DC Motor Control | Industrial DC-DC Converters |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Driving 24–48 V brushed motors in automated valves and conveyor systems with PWM at 20 kHz. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in half-bridge configuration; handles bidirectional current during freewheeling via body diode.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP10NK100Z | 1000 V V(BR)DSS, 10 A ID, 1.2 Ω RDS(on) | Designed for high-voltage flyback and PFC stages, not 48 V systems | Select only when >600 V blocking is required; unsuitable for low-voltage efficiency-critical use |
| IRF540N | 100 V V(BR)DSS, 33 A ID, 44 mΩ RDS(on), TO-220 package | Lower RDS(on) but higher gate charge (71 nC vs. ~35 nC); less dv/dt rugged | Prefer for high-efficiency, low-loss 10 A switching where gate drive strength permits |
Compared with STP10NK100Z and IRF540N, the SPP10N10 uniquely balances 100 V rating, 180 mΩ on-resistance, 6 kV/µs dv/dt immunity, and 60 mJ avalanche energy - making it optimal for ruggedized 48 V industrial switching where reliability trumps ultra-low RDS(on).

FAQ
Is the SPP10N10 suitable for synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters?
No - the SPP10N10 is not optimized for synchronous rectification due to its relatively high RDS(on) (180 mΩ) and unspecified reverse recovery characteristics for bidirectional conduction. Its body diode is rated for unidirectional freewheeling, not high-frequency reverse conduction. For synchronous rectification, Infineon's OptiMOS™ series with lower Qg and specified trr/Qrr is recommended.
What is the maximum gate resistor value recommended for reliable switching?
For 10.3 A switching at 100 kHz with minimal overshoot, a gate resistor of 10–22 Ω is recommended when driven by a 2 A peak gate driver. Higher values (>47 Ω) increase switching losses and risk incomplete turn-on due to gate threshold spread (2.1–4 V); lower values (<5 Ω) may cause ringing without proper PCB layout damping.
Does the metal tab of the TO-220 package connect to drain internally?
Yes - Pin 3 (Drain) is internally bonded to the metal tab. Electrical isolation between tab and heatsink is mandatory unless the system design explicitly requires drain-to-chassis connection. Use insulating shoulder washers and thermally conductive but electrically isolating pads (e.g., silicone-based) during mounting.
Can the SPP10N10 replace the IRFZ44N in existing designs?
Yes, with verification - both are 100 V, TO-220 N-channel MOSFETs, but the SPP10N10 has higher RDS(on) (180 mΩ vs. 28 mΩ) and superior dv/dt/avalanche ratings. Replace only if thermal margin exists and ruggedness (not efficiency) is the priority; gate drive compatibility is maintained due to similar VGS(th) and Qg ranges.
