Product details

Overview

ST13007DFP from STMicroelectronics is a high-voltage fast-switching NPN power transistor with integrated free-wheeling diode, rated for V_CEO = 400 V, I_C = 8 A, and P_tot = 36 W at T_c ≤ 25 °C. It features tight h_FE range (18–40 at I_C = 2 A), low V_CE(sat) (0.8 V typ. @ 2 A/0.4 A), and full characterization at 125 °C - optimized for electronic transformers in halogen lamp ballasts and SMPS primary-side switching.

For engineers reviewing the ST13007DFP datasheet, ST13007DFP pinout, ST13007DFP application, or ST13007DFP equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1500 V RMS insulation rating, R_BSOA robustness, storage time < 2.3 µs (T_c = 25 °C), and TO-220FP fully insulated package enabling direct heatsink mounting without isolation hardware.

Technical Context

This device employs Multi Epitaxial Planar technology and a Cellular Emitter structure to achieve very high switching speed and stable dynamic parameters across lots. Its integrated anti-parallel diode enables self-contained inductive load commutation in flyback and forward converter topologies.

The transistor is fully characterized up to 125 °C junction temperature, with guaranteed R_thj-case = 3.47 °C/W and R_thj-amb = 62.5 °C/W. The U.L.-compliant insulated package eliminates need for insulating washers in transformer and SMPS designs requiring creepage/clearance compliance.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_CEO	400 V - supports primary-side switching in 230 VAC offline SMPS and halogen lamp electronic transformers
I_C	8 A continuous - enables ≥120 W output in transformer-driven lighting applications
V_CE(sat)	0.8 V (typ.) @ 2 A/0.4 A - reduces conduction loss and thermal stress in high-duty-cycle operation
t_s	1.7 µs (max) @ T_c = 25 °C - ensures reliable turn-off in 50–100 kHz switching converters
Visol	1500 V RMS - allows direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without additional insulation
h_FE	18–40 @ I_C = 2 A - tight gain spread simplifies base drive design and improves batch consistency
R_thj-case	3.47 °C/W - supports high-power dissipation with minimal case-to-junction temperature rise

Pinout & Package

ST13007DFP uses a TO-220FP (Full-Pak) package: fully insulated plastic housing with metal tab electrically isolated from collector, U.L. recognized for safe direct heatsink mounting.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
1 (Emitter)	Emitter terminal	Low-impedance current return path; connected to ground or low-side switch node
2 (Collector)	Collector terminal	High-voltage switching node; connects to transformer primary or DC bus
3 (Base)	Base control terminal	Current-driven input; requires ~0.4 A drive for 2 A collector current

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Integrated free-wheeling diode	Enables single-device inductive energy recirculation without external diode in flyback/forward converters
Tight storage time range (1.7–2.3 µs)	Ensures consistent turn-off timing across production lots and temperature extremes
Large RBSOA (Reverse Biased Safe Operating Area)	Supports reliable operation under inductive switching stress with V_CL = 250 V and L = 200 µH
DC current gain preselection	Manufacturing binning delivers specified h_FE range (18–40), reducing design margin overhead
Full 125 °C characterization	Guarantees parametric performance at elevated ambient temperatures common in enclosed lighting fixtures

Applications

Halogen Lamp Electronic Transformers

Offline Switch-Mode Power Supplies

Use Scenario: High-frequency AC generation (20–50 kHz) to drive 12 V/20–100 W halogen lamps via ferrite-core transformer.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side NPN switch controlling transformer excitation; operates in self-oscillating or fixed-frequency hard-switched mode.

Use Value: Integrated diode and low t_s enable compact, efficient transformer driver with no external snubber or clamp diode required.

Use Scenario: Primary-side switching in 30–100 W universal-input AC/DC adapters and industrial auxiliary supplies.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main power switch in flyback topology; handles 400 V DC link voltage and repetitive inductive turn-off stress.

Use Value: R_BSOA robustness and 1500 V isolation allow direct heatsink mounting and eliminate creepage concerns in compact enclosures.

DC-DC Converters for Industrial Control

Ballast Circuits for Low-Voltage Lighting

Use Scenario: Isolated DC-DC conversion in PLC I/O modules and sensor power supplies operating from 24–48 VDC input.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in forward or push-pull topology; driven by optocoupled gate driver.

Use Value: Tight h_FE spread and low leakage (<10 µA @ 700 V) ensure predictable base drive and low standby loss.

Use Scenario: Dimmable low-voltage lighting systems using phase-cut or PWM-controlled halogen drivers.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching power stage synchronized to dimming signal; handles frequent on/off transitions.

Use Value: Very high switching speed (t_f = 90 ns) and low V_CE(sat) minimize switching losses during rapid duty-cycle changes.

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage NPN power transistor applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
ST13005DFP	V_CEO = 400 V, I_C = 4 A, P_tot = 25 W - lower current/power rating	Suitable for ≤60 W halogen transformers; insufficient for 120 W loads	Select when thermal budget or cost constraints reduce required output power
BU508AF	V_CEO = 1500 V, I_C = 8 A, no integrated diode - higher voltage headroom, no built-in freewheeling path	Used in high-voltage flybacks (≥600 V DC link); requires external diode and isolation hardware	Choose for ultra-high-voltage SMPS where V_CEV > 700 V is mandatory

Compared with ST13005DFP, ST13007DFP delivers +100% current capability and +44% power dissipation for same footprint; versus BU508AF, it trades 1100 V headroom for integrated diode, reduced layout area, and simplified thermal mounting.

FAQ

What is the maximum recommended case temperature for continuous operation?

The ST13007DFP is fully characterized up to T_c = 125 °C, and its absolute maximum T_j is 150 °C. With R_thj-case = 3.47 °C/W, sustained operation at T_c = 100 °C limits junction temperature to 134.7 °C - within safe margin. Derating is required above 100 °C case temperature per the published derating curve.

Does the integrated diode replace an external freewheeling diode in all applications?

Yes - the monolithically integrated anti-parallel diode is rated for I_F = 3 A and V_F = 2.5 V, matching typical flyback/foward recirculation requirements. It eliminates discrete diode placement and PCB routing but must be verified against peak reverse recovery stress in high-dV/dt environments.

Can ST13007DFP be used in avalanche mode?

No - ST13007DFP is not rated for repetitive avalanche operation. Its V_CEV = 700 V is a non-repetitive test condition. Safe operation requires clamping or snubbing circuits to limit V_CE to ≤400 V during switching transients.

Is the TO-220FP package compatible with standard TO-220 heatsinks?

Yes - the TO-220FP mechanical outline matches standard TO-220, but its insulated tab allows direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without mica washers or silicone pads. Mounting torque must not exceed 0.5 N·m to avoid damaging internal insulation.
