Product details
Overview
STD3NK80ZT4 from STMicroelectronics is a Zener-protected N-channel SuperMESH Power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, rated for 800 V drain-source voltage, 4.5 Ω max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and ID = 1.25 A, and 2.5 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It delivers high dv/dt capability (4.5 V/ns), 100% avalanche tested performance (EAS = 170 mJ), and low gate charge (Qg = 19 nC), targeting high-voltage flyback and SMPS primary-side switching.
For engineers reviewing the STD3NK80ZT4 datasheet, STD3NK80ZT4 pinout, STD3NK80ZT4 application, or STD3NK80ZT4 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V blocking rating, Zener-protected gate, 1.78 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, and compatibility with hard-switched 600–800 V DC bus topologies requiring robust unclamped inductive switching capability.
Technical Context
This device implements ST's SuperMESH process - an evolution of PowerMESH - to reduce on-resistance while maintaining high voltage ruggedness and fast switching. Its Zener-protected gate structure enables ±30 V VGS tolerance and intrinsic ESD immunity (2 kV HBM).
The MOSFET features low output capacitance (Coss = 57 pF typ., Coss,eq = 22 pF) and optimized charge distribution (Qgd/Qg ≈ 57%), supporting high-efficiency, high-frequency operation in quasi-resonant and fixed-frequency converters up to several hundred kHz.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 800 V - Supports primary-side switching in universal-input offline SMPS with 640 V DC bus and 20% margin. |
| RDS(on) max | 4.5 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 1.25 A - Enables <11.3 W conduction loss at full 2.5 A load at 25 °C case temperature. |
| ID cont. | 2.5 A @ TC = 25 °C - Sustains 60 W dissipation (PTOT = 70 W) with appropriate heatsinking on FR-4 PCB. |
| EAS | 170 mJ @ TJ = 25 °C - Withstands single-pulse unclamped inductive energy without failure in flyback snubberless designs. |
| dv/dt | 4.5 V/ns - Ensures reliable operation under fast voltage transients in high-noise industrial power supplies. |
| Qg | 19 nC - Reduces gate drive power and enables use of low-cost bipolar or CMOS gate drivers in cost-sensitive AC-DC adapters. |
| RthJC | 1.78 °C/W - Allows direct thermal path to copper pour or heatsink, critical for compact 15–30 W offline converters. |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) package: surface-mount, single-ended heat-dissipating leadframe with exposed drain tab. Mechanical outline conforms to type A per DS3337 Rev 8, featuring 6.0–6.2 mm body width (D), 6.4–6.6 mm length (E), and 9.35–10.10 mm height (H). Tab is electrically connected to Drain.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal; accepts 10 V logic-level drive; Zener-clamped to ±30 V for ESD robustness. |
| 2 (TAB) | Drain | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically tied to exposed metal tab for low-inductance, high-current return path and thermal conduction. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return reference; used for current sensing and gate drive referencing in low-side configurations. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated bidirectional Zener clamp limits VGS to ±30 V, eliminating need for external gate protection in noisy environments. |
| 100% avalanche tested | Every unit validated for repetitive and non-repetitive avalanche energy (IAR = 2.5 A, EAS = 170 mJ), ensuring field reliability in inductive switching. |
| Low Coss,eq | 22 pF equivalent output capacitance reduces turn-off losses and improves light-load efficiency in QR flyback converters. |
| Minimized Qg | 19 nC total gate charge lowers driver power consumption and simplifies gate drive design for 5–12 V controllers. |
| High dv/dt immunity | 4.5 V/ns rated diode recovery dv/dt prevents spurious turn-on during commutation in high-side or half-bridge configurations. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage N-channel MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP3NK80Z | TO-220 package; identical electrical specs but higher RthJA (62 °C/W vs 50 °C/W) and no tape-and-reel option. | Preferred for prototyping or low-volume through-hole assembly; unsuitable for automated SMT lines. | Select when manual soldering or heatsink mounting is required; avoid for high-density PCBs needing DPAK footprint. |
| IPP60R190C6 | 650 V rating, 190 mΩ RDS(on), CoolMOS™ technology; lower conduction loss but insufficient voltage margin for 800 V systems. | Optimized for 380–400 V DC bus PFC+LLC topologies, not universal offline inputs. | Choose only if system DC bus is ≤450 V; not a drop-in replacement due to VDS derating risk in 800 V applications. |
Compared with STP3NK80Z, STD3NK80ZT4 offers SMT manufacturability and better thermal performance on PCB; compared with IPP60R190C6, it trades lower RDS(on) for essential 800 V ruggedness in legacy offline designs where voltage margin is non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for STD3NK80ZT4?
The junction temperature must not exceed 150 °C under steady-state operation. With RthJC = 1.78 °C/W and PTOT = 70 W, the case temperature must be held below 26.6 °C for full power - typically achieved using ≥10 cm² 2 oz copper pour or external heatsink. Derate linearly above TC = 25 °C per Figure 1 (SOA curve) in DS3337.
Does STD3NK80ZT4 require external gate protection?
No. The integrated Zener diode clamps gate-source voltage to ±30 V, making external TVS or resistor-Zener networks unnecessary in standard applications. However, a small series gate resistor (10–47 Ω) is still recommended to damp ringing and control dV/dt during switching transitions.
Can STD3NK80ZT4 replace STD3NK90Z in existing designs?
No - STD3NK90Z is rated for 900 V VDS and has different RDS(on) (5.5 Ω max) and gate charge (22 nC). Substituting STD3NK80ZT4 in a 900 V design risks avalanche failure during line surges. Voltage rating must be verified against worst-case system transients before replacement.
What is the typical reverse recovery time of the body diode?
The source-drain diode exhibits trr = 384 ns at TJ = 25 °C (ISD = 2.5 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, VDD = 50 V), increasing to 474 ns at TJ = 150 °C. This fast recovery supports quasi-resonant operation but is not optimized for synchronous rectification - external Schottky diodes are preferred for secondary-side rectification.
