Product details
Overview
STH240N75F3-2 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET using STripFET™ III technology, rated for 75 V drain-source voltage, 2.6 mΩ typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V and 90 A, and 180 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It is optimized for high-efficiency switching in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and power supplies where low conduction loss and fast switching are critical.
For engineers reviewing the STH240N75F3-2 datasheet, STH240N75F3-2 pinout, STH240N75F3-2 application, or STH240N75F3-2 equivalent, this device delivers verified low-profile thermal performance (Rthj-case = 0.5 °C/W), high pulsed current capability (IDM = 720 A), and robust avalanche energy rating (EAS = 600 mJ) - key selection criteria for high-power industrial and automotive-grade switching designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a trench-gate STripFET™ III process to simultaneously minimize RDS(on) and gate charge (Qg = 87 nC typ.), enabling high-frequency operation with reduced switching losses. Its H²PAK-2 package integrates a thermally efficient copper-tab drain connection and low-inductance source/gate layout.
The device supports hard-switching topologies with validated unclamped inductive load (UIL) capability and exhibits stable gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2–4 V) and on-resistance over temperature (±10% variation from 25 °C to 150 °C), ensuring predictable behavior in thermally demanding environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 75 V - Maximum blocking voltage compatible with 48 V and 60 V bus systems. |
| RDS(on) typ. | 2.6 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 90 A - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 120 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| ID cont. | 180 A at TC = 25 °C - Supports high-current single-phase motor drives and high-power synchronous rectifiers. |
| Qg | 87 nC - Low total gate charge allows fast turn-on/turn-off with moderate gate driver strength (e.g., 1–2 A peak). |
| EAS | 600 mJ - Confirmed single-pulse avalanche energy ensures ruggedness during transient overvoltage events. |
| Rthj-case | 0.5 °C/W - Enables direct mounting to heatsinks for high-power dissipation up to 300 W at TC = 25 °C. |
| tr/tf | 70 ns / 15 ns - Fast switching transitions reduce overlap loss in hard-switched SMPS and inverters. |
Pinout & Package
The STH240N75F3-2 is housed in the H²PAK-2 surface-mount package, featuring a low-profile (max height 4.8 mm), thermally enhanced construction with exposed copper drain tab for direct heatsink attachment and minimized parasitic inductance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (TAB) | Drain | Exposed copper thermal pad - electrically connected to drain and serves as primary heat path to PCB/heatsink. |
| G (1) | Gate | Single gate input terminal - low capacitance (Ciss = 6800 pF) enables stable high-frequency drive with minimal ringing. |
| S (2, 3) | Source | Dual-source terminals - reduce source inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| STripFET™ III trench process | Delivers 2.6 mΩ RDS(on) with 87 nC Qg, balancing conduction and switching loss for >100 kHz operation. |
| H²PAK-2 low-inductance layout | Minimizes source loop inductance (<1.5 nH estimated), reducing voltage overshoot during turn-off in high-di/dt circuits. |
| Robust avalanche rating | 600 mJ EAS at Tj = 25 °C confirms reliable operation under inductive switching stress without external snubbers. |
| Thermal resistance | 0.5 °C/W Rthj-case enables compact thermal design - 300 W power dissipation achievable with modest heatsinking. |
| High pulsed current | 720 A IDM supports short-duration overload conditions in UPS, battery protection, and motor stall scenarios. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 75 V Power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFB4115PBF | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ (higher), Qg = 120 nC (higher), TO-220AB package | Higher thermal resistance (Rthj-case = 0.85 °C/W), requires larger heatsink | Preferred where through-hole assembly or legacy footprint compatibility is required. |
| IXFH42N60P | 600 V rating, RDS(on) = 0.13 Ω, TO-247 package - not voltage-compatible | Designed for 400 V+ DC link; unsuitable for 48–75 V systems | Not recommended for direct replacement; only considered if system redesign accommodates higher voltage and lower current. |
Compared with IRFB4115PBF, STH240N75F3-2 offers 19% lower RDS(on) and 28% lower Qg, enabling higher efficiency and faster switching; versus IXFH42N60P, it is optimized for low-voltage, high-current operation rather than high-voltage, medium-current use - making it superior for 48 V industrial and automotive power stages.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for STH240N75F3-2 at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 170 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 2 of the datasheet. This reflects thermal derating from the 180 A rating at 25 °C, maintaining safe junction temperature within the 175 °C limit under sustained high-temperature operation.
Does STH240N75F3-2 include integrated gate protection?
No, the device does not integrate gate protection circuitry. It features standard ±20 V absolute maximum gate-source voltage rating and requires external gate resistor and clamping (e.g., 12 V Zener) to prevent overvoltage during fast switching transients or ESD events.
Can STH240N75F3-2 be used in synchronous rectification applications?
Yes - its low RDS(on) (2.6 mΩ), fast body diode recovery (trr = 80 ns), and low Qrr (180 nC) make it suitable for secondary-side synchronous rectification in isolated DC-DC converters, especially where high current density and low forward voltage drop are prioritized.
Is the H²PAK-2 package RoHS-compliant and lead-free?
Yes - the H²PAK-2 package is ECOPACK®-compliant and fully lead-free, meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH requirements. STMicroelectronics provides full material declarations and compliance documentation upon request.
