Product details
Overview
STB13N80K5 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 800 V, 370 mΩ typ. (450 mΩ max), 12 A MDmesh K5 Power MOSFET in D²PAK (TO-263) package, designed for high-voltage switching in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial inverters requiring low conduction loss and rugged avalanche performance.
For engineers reviewing the STB13N80K5 datasheet, STB13N80K5 pinout, STB13N80K5 application, or STB13N80K5 equivalent, this device delivers ultra-low gate charge (29 nC), Zener-protected gate, 100% avalanche tested operation, and optimized FoM for high-efficiency 600–800 V systems.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's proprietary MDmesh K5 vertical structure to achieve a 370 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 6 A, with 29 nC total gate charge enabling fast, low-loss switching in hard-switched topologies. Its 800 V V(BR)DSS rating supports universal-input AC/DC designs up to 400 V RMS line voltage with margin.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 406 ns typical reverse recovery time (TJ = 25 °C) and 5.7 µC Qrr, and features 148 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) - validated per unclamped inductive load test - ensuring reliable operation under transient overvoltage conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 800 V - Withstands 800 V drain-source breakdown, enabling use in 400 V AC mains-fed converters with safety margin. |
| RDS(on) max | 450 mΩ - Limits conduction loss to ≤ 65 W at 12 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C). |
| Qg | 29 nC - Enables efficient gate drive with low-power controllers; reduces switching loss in 65–100 kHz PFC stages. |
| EAS | 148 mJ - Guarantees safe single-pulse avalanche capability without derating, critical for flyback snubberless designs. |
| RthJC | 0.66 °C/W - Supports 190 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C in D²PAK package with minimal heatsink requirement. |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - Resists false turn-on during high-slew-rate transients in bridge-leg configurations. |
| VGS(th) | 3–5 V - Ensures clean turn-on with standard 10 V gate drivers while avoiding noise-induced conduction. |
Pinout & Package

| 2 (D / TAB) | Drain / Heat Sink Pad | Main high-voltage output node; electrically connected to exposed copper tab for low-inductance thermal path to PCB. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return reference; ties to low-side switch node; defines gate-source control loop integrity. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low gate charge | 29 nC total charge enables <100 ns switching transitions with 10 Ω gate resistor, reducing driver loss. |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for STB13N80K5 at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current (ID) is 7.6 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS9526 Rev 6. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D²PAK package under sustained high-temperature operation, not device degradation.
Does STB13N80K5 include integrated gate protection?
Yes - STB13N80K5 features an integrated Zener diode between gate and source, rated for ±30 V, providing inherent protection against electrostatic discharge and gate overvoltage transients without requiring external components.
Can STB13N80K5 be used in avalanche mode during normal operation?
No - while 100% tested for single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS = 148 mJ), STB13N80K5 is not rated for repetitive avalanche operation. It must be operated within its SOA curves (Figure 1) to avoid cumulative junction damage.
What is the recommended gate resistor value for hard-switched PFC applications?
A 4.7 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet (Table 6) for VDD = 400 V, ID = 6 A conditions, yielding 16 ns turn-on delay and 16 ns rise time. For 100 kHz PFC, 5–10 Ω balances switching speed, EMI, and gate driver stress.
