Product details
Overview
STF2N80K5 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 800 V, 4.5 Ω (max) power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, featuring ultra-low gate charge (5 nC), 100% avalanche tested operation, and Zener-protected gate. It delivers high-voltage switching capability with industry-leading RDS(on) × area and FoM for compact, high-efficiency SMPS and industrial converters.
For engineers reviewing the STF2N80K5 datasheet, STF2N80K5 pinout, STF2N80K5 application, or STF2N80K5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V VDS, 2 A continuous drain current at 25 °C, 6.25 °C/W RthJC, 60.5 mJ EAS, and dv/dt ruggedness up to 50 V/ns - critical for flyback, PFC, and HV DC-DC designs.
Technical Context
This MDmesh K5 device uses a proprietary vertical structure to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its 3.5 Ω typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and low Ciss (105 pF) enable high-frequency operation while maintaining robust unclamped inductive switching performance.
The integrated source-drain diode exhibits 255 ns trr at 25 °C and 285 ns at 150 °C, with 1 µC Qrr, supporting efficient quasi-resonant and hard-switched topologies. Insulation withstand voltage of 2.5 kV RMS ensures safe isolation between leads and heatsink in grounded-chassis systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 800 V - supports primary-side switching in universal-input offline SMPS up to 400 V AC mains with margin |
| RDS(on) max | 4.5 Ω - defines conduction loss at 1 A; enables <1 W I²R loss in 25 °C ambient with minimal heatsinking |
| Qg | 5 nC - reduces gate drive power and enables use of low-current drivers in high-frequency (>100 kHz) converters |
| EAS | 60.5 mJ - guarantees single-pulse avalanche survival under worst-case turn-off overvoltage in inductive loads |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - prevents spurious turn-on during fast voltage transients in bridge-leg or phase-leg configurations |
| RthJC | 6.25 °C/W - allows 20 W dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above case, suitable for forced-air or moderate heatsink use |
| VGS(th) | 3–5 V - ensures reliable enhancement-mode turn-on with standard 5 V or 10 V logic-level gate drivers |
Pinout & Package
TO-220FP (Type B) package: insulated tab, vertical mounting, single-row 3-pin outline with integral heatsink interface. Pin 1 = Gate (G), Pin 2 = Drain (D), Pin 3 = Source (S). Tab is electrically connected to Drain.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate control terminal | Receives 10 V drive to fully enhance; requires <5 nC charge for full transition; Zener-protected against ±30 V transients |
| Pin 2 (D) | Drain (high-side switch node) | Connected to insulated metal tab; rated for 800 V blocking; carries full load current and avalanche energy during fault |
| Pin 3 (S) | Source (power return path) | Reference for gate drive; forms common node with internal body diode cathode; ties to PCB ground plane or low-side switch |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh K5 vertical structure | Reduces RDS(on) × die area by >30% vs prior K3/K4 generations, enabling smaller footprint in HV converters |
| Ultra-low gate charge | 5 nC total charge minimizes driver loss and EMI during switching transitions in 65–300 kHz applications |
| 100% avalanche tested | Every unit validated for 0.5 A repetitive avalanche current and 60.5 mJ single-pulse energy per DS14533 |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated gate oxide protection clamps VGS to ±30 V, eliminating need for external gate Zener in most designs |
| High dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns rating ensures immunity to false triggering in half-bridge or LLC resonant converter high-side operation |
Applications
| Industrial Flyback Converters | AC-DC Adapters (Universal Input) |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Primary-side switch in 30–65 W offline flyback converters for industrial HMIs and PLC power supplies. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-voltage switching element handling 400 V DC link; operates at 65–130 kHz with zero-voltage switching assist. Use Value: 800 V rating provides 2× safety margin over 400 V DC bus; 60.5 mJ EAS sustains repeated line surges without failure. |
Use Scenario: Main switch in compact 24 W universal-input (90–264 V AC) wall adapters for medical and test equipment. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Energy-transfer switch in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM); gate driven by PWM controller with 5 nC Qg compatibility. Use Value: 4.5 Ω RDS(on) limits conduction loss to <0.5 W at full load; TO-220FP insulation enables direct heatsink mounting without isolation pads. |
| Active PFC Boost Stages | High-Voltage DC-DC Isolated Converters |
|
Use Scenario: Switching element in continuous conduction mode (CCM) boost PFC stage for 110–250 V AC input, 380 V DC output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-turning high-side switch synchronized to line frequency; handles 2 A average current with 8 A pulsed peak. Use Value: 255 ns trr and 1 µC Qrr reduce diode recovery loss and EMI; 50 V/ns dv/dt rating prevents shoot-through in interleaved designs. |
Use Scenario: Primary switch in 400 V input, 24 V isolated DC-DC converters for railway signaling and telecom rectifiers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Hard-switched MOSFET in forward or push-pull topology; rated for 2.5 kV RMS insulation to chassis ground. Use Value: 2.5 kV isolation withstand eliminates need for additional creepage/clearance barriers; RthJC = 6.25 °C/W supports 20 W continuous dissipation with passive cooling. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP2N80K5 | Same die, TO-220 (non-insulated) package; no isolation barrier; RthJC = 5.0 °C/W | Requires external insulator for heatsink mounting; higher thermal efficiency but unsafe in grounded-tab layouts | Select when mechanical mounting permits direct tab grounding and isolation is handled externally |
| IPP60R099C7 | 650 V rating, 99 mΩ RDS(on), 7th-gen CoolMOS; lower Qg (3.8 nC), no avalanche rating | Not suitable for 800 V bus designs; lacks 100% avalanche test; better for 380 V DC-link PFC | Prefer only in 650 V systems where reduced switching loss outweighs missing avalanche robustness |
Compared with STP2N80K5, STF2N80K5 trades 1.25 °C/W higher thermal resistance for 2.5 kV isolation - essential for safety-certified AC-DC systems. Versus IPP60R099C7, it sacrifices low-RDS(on) for guaranteed 800 V operation and avalanche survivability in uncontrolled fault conditions.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STF2N80K5 supports 1.3 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS14533 Rev 1. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-220FP package and ensures safe operation within the SOA boundary at elevated temperatures.
Does STF2N80K5 have an integrated body diode, and what are its recovery characteristics?
Yes, it includes a monolithic source-drain diode with 255 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 1 µC reverse recovery charge (Qrr) at TJ = 25 °C, per Table 7. These values increase to 285 ns and 1.45 µC at 150 °C, confirming suitability for quasi-resonant and soft-switching topologies.
Can STF2N80K5 be used in place of STP2N80K5 without layout changes?
No - STF2N80K5 uses TO-220FP (insulated tab), while STP2N80K5 uses standard TO-220 (conductive tab). Mounting the STF2N80K5 on a grounded heatsink requires no insulator, but its tab-to-case capacitance and thermal resistance differ, necessitating thermal and safety review before substitution.
What is the significance of "100% avalanche tested" in production?
Each STF2N80K5 undergoes individual unclamped inductive switching (UIS) stress test per JEDEC JESD22-A109, verifying minimum 60.5 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy at TJ = 25 °C. This ensures field reliability under transient overvoltage events like transformer leakage spikes or load dump.
