Product details
Overview
STF7LN80K5 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 800 V, 5 A high-voltage Power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, fabricated with MDmesh K5 vertical structure. It delivers 0.95 Ω typ. RDS(on), 12 nC total gate charge, and 200 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy-enabling high-efficiency switching in offline SMPS and industrial AC-DC converters.
For engineers reviewing the STF7LN80K5 datasheet, STF7LN80K5 pinout, STF7LN80K5 application, or STF7LN80K5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 800 V VDS, Zener-protected gate, 100% avalanche-tested ruggedness, and ultra-low FoM (RDS(on) × Qg = 11.4 nΩ·F) for high-density power stages.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's MDmesh K5 proprietary vertical superjunction architecture to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its 270 pF Ciss, 0.5 pF Crss, and 48 pF Co(tr) support fast, low-noise hard-switching up to 100 kHz in continuous conduction mode.
The integrated Zener-protected gate withstands ±30 V VGS, while the 2.5 kV RMS insulation rating between leads and heat sink enables reinforced isolation in Class I/II AC-input systems. Avalanche capability is validated at 1.5 A repetitive IAR and 200 mJ EAS at TJ = 25 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 800 V - supports 650 V AC mains designs with ≥23% margin against line surges |
| RDS(on) max | 1.15 Ω - ensures ≤5.8 W conduction loss at 5 A DC, enabling TO-220FP thermal operation up to 100 °C case temp |
| Qg | 12 nC - reduces gate drive power and enables use of low-current drivers (e.g., 100 mA peak) |
| EAS | 200 mJ - sustains unclamped inductive turn-off events without failure in PFC or flyback snubberless designs |
| Coss | 22 pF - minimizes capacitive turn-on loss and improves light-load efficiency in QR flybacks |
| RthJC | 5 °C/W - allows 25 W dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise above 25 °C case, supporting compact heatsink sizing |
| dV/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - prevents spurious turn-on during high-slew-rate commutation in bridge configurations |
Pinout & Package
TO-220FP (Type B) package: insulated tab, vertical mounting, 3-pin through-hole. Pin 1 = Gate (G), Pin 2 = Drain (D), Pin 3 = Source (S). Tab is electrically connected to Drain and thermally coupled to case.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (G) | Gate control terminal | Accepts 10 V logic-level drive; Zener-clamped to ±30 V; requires <12 nC charge for full enhancement |
| Pin 2 (D) | High-voltage drain node | Connected to internal die backside and insulated tab; rated for 800 V blocking and 2.5 kV isolation to heatsink |
| Pin 3 (S) | Source reference and return path | Serves as local ground reference for gate drive; carries full load current (5 A continuous, 20 A pulsed) |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low gate charge | 12 nC total charge enables <1 µs turn-on with 12 mA average gate current, reducing driver stress |
| Very low FoM (RDS(on) × Qg) | 11.4 nΩ·F - benchmark figure of merit for high-voltage MOSFETs, directly improving power density in 100–300 W adapters |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated bidirectional Zener clamps gate-to-source to ±30 V, eliminating need for external TVS in most layouts |
| 100% avalanche tested | Each unit undergoes single-pulse EAS validation at 200 mJ, ensuring robustness in real-world overvoltage transients |
| MDmesh K5 vertical structure | Proprietary superjunction process achieves 25% lower RDS(on) vs prior K3 generation at same voltage class |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STF8N80K5 | 800 V, 8 A, 0.7 Ω typ. RDS(on), 16 nC Qg, same TO-220FP package | Higher current rating suits higher-power PFC stages but increases gate drive demand and cost | Select when >5 A continuous current or lower conduction loss is required; verify gate driver can source 16 nC |
| IPP60R190C7 | 600 V, 190 mΩ RDS(on), 23 nC Qg, TO-220 package (non-insulated) | Lacks 800 V rating and Zener protection; requires external gate clamp and isolation hardware | Only suitable for 400 V DC bus designs; not drop-in for 800 V AC-input topologies requiring reinforced insulation |
Compared with STF8N80K5, STF7LN80K5 trades 3 A current headroom for 25% lower gate charge and reduced system-level gate drive complexity; versus IPP60R190C7, it provides essential 800 V rating, integrated Zener, and 2.5 kV isolation-critical for universal-input offline converters.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STF7LN80K5 supports 3.4 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS11431 Rev 3. This derating reflects thermal limits of the TO-220FP package with RthJC = 5 °C/W and maximum TJ = 150 °C. At 25 °C case, it delivers 5 A continuously.
Does the STF7LN80K5 require an external gate resistor for safe operation?
Yes-a gate resistor is required to control dI/dt and suppress oscillation, especially in hard-switching topologies. The datasheet recommends RG = 4.7 Ω for switching time characterization (Table 6). Typical design values range from 2.2 Ω to 10 Ω depending on drive strength and EMI constraints.
Is the TO-220FP package lead-free and RoHS-compliant?
Yes. ST specifies the STF7LN80K5 in ECOPACK®-compliant TO-220FP packaging, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH SVHC requirements. Full environmental compliance data-including Pb-free plating and halogen-free molding compound-is documented in ST's ECOPACK specifications portal.
Can the body diode be used for synchronous rectification in a flyback converter?
No-the intrinsic body diode has 276 ns reverse recovery time (trr) and 2.13 µC Qrr at 25 °C, making it unsuitable for synchronous rectification. It is designed for clamping and freewheeling only. For SR applications, a dedicated low-Qrr Schottky or MOSFET with external control is required.
