Product details
Overview
STI40N65M2 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 650 V, 87 mΩ typ. (99 mΩ max.), 32 A MDmesh™ M2 Power MOSFET in TO-220 package, designed for high-efficiency hard-switching and resonant converters. It delivers low gate charge (56.5 nC), optimized Coss profile (102 pF), and 100% avalanche-tested ruggedness (EAS = 820 mJ) for industrial SMPS, PFC stages, and solar inverters.
For engineers reviewing the STI40N65M2 datasheet, STI40N65M2 pinout, STI40N65M2 application, or STI40N65M2 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) stability over temperature, dv/dt ruggedness (50 V/ns), unclamped inductive switching capability, and Zener-protected gate reliability under transient stress.
Technical Context
This device employs ST's MDmesh M2 strip layout and enhanced vertical structure to simultaneously reduce conduction loss and improve switching efficiency. Its low Coss (102 pF) and Crss (2.7 pF) enable fast turn-off with minimal voltage overshoot, while the 4.5 Ω intrinsic gate resistance supports robust gate drive design.
The MOSFET features a Zener-protected gate (±25 V rating), 100% single-pulse avalanche testing (IAR = 3 A, EAS = 820 mJ), and high dv/dt immunity (50 V/ns MOSFET ruggedness). Its source-drain diode exhibits trr = 468 ns and Qrr = 8.7 µC at TJ = 25 °C, supporting moderate-frequency synchronous rectification.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 650 V - Withstands DC bus voltages up to 400 V in 3-phase PFC or 520 V in clamped topologies without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) max | 99 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 16 A - Enables <1.6 W conduction loss at 32 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C). |
| Qg | 56.5 nC - Reduces gate driver power demand and enables >100 kHz operation with standard 1-A drivers. |
| Coss | 102 pF @ VDS = 100 V - Low output capacitance minimizes turn-on energy loss in ZVS circuits. |
| EAS | 820 mJ @ TJ = 25 °C - Guarantees safe unclamped inductive switching in flyback or LLC primary switches. |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - Prevents spurious turn-on during high-speed voltage transients in bridge-leg configurations. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220 type A package with isolated tab (drain-connected), 3-pin through-hole mounting. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.5 °C/W enables 250 W dissipation at TC = 25 °C with minimal heatsink.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal requiring ≤±25 V drive; Zener-clamped for ESD and transient protection. |
| 2 (TAB/D) | Drain (exposed tab) | High-voltage power node; electrically connected to package tab-requires isolation from heatsink unless referenced to same potential. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return path and gate reference; carries full load current and reverse diode conduction (ISD = 32 A). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh M2 technology | Strip-based silicon architecture delivering 15% lower RDS(on) × Qg figure-of-merit vs. prior-generation 650 V MOSFETs. |
| Extremely low gate charge | Qg = 56.5 nC enables efficient gate driving with low-power controllers and reduces switching losses by ~22% vs. comparable 600 V devices. |
| Optimized Coss profile | Coss = 102 pF with flat voltage dependence ensures predictable turn-on timing and reduced capacitive ringing in high-dV/dt environments. |
| 100% avalanche tested | Each unit validated for single-pulse avalanche energy EAS = 820 mJ-critical for reliability in non-ZVS hard-switched topologies. |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated gate-source Zener clamp limits VGS to ±25 V, eliminating need for external gate protection in noisy industrial environments. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP40N65M2 | Same die, identical electrical specs; differs only in marking and order code (STI40N65M2 is obsolete per DS10875 Rev 2). | Identical use in TO-220-based designs; no layout or thermal change required. | Select STP40N65M2 for new designs-STI40N65M2 is discontinued and no longer supported. |
| IPP60R099C7 | 600 V rating, 99 mΩ RDS(on), 53 nC Qg, but lacks 100% avalanche test and Zener gate protection. | Acceptable in lower-bus-voltage (<380 V) SMPS where avalanche margin is relaxed and gate protection is externally implemented. | Choose only if system-level transient protection is already present and VDS derating to 60% of rating is acceptable. |
Compared with STI40N65M2, STP40N65M2 offers identical performance with active production status and full documentation support, while IPP60R099C7 trades ruggedness and integrated protection for slightly lower gate charge in cost-sensitive, lower-voltage applications.

FAQ
Is STI40N65M2 still in active production?
No-STI40N65M2 was removed from ST's active product portfolio as of December 2025 (DS10875 Rev 2). STP40N65M2 is the direct replacement with identical die, electrical characteristics, and packaging. Aetrix Electronics maintains limited legacy stock of STI40N65M2 for continuity support but recommends transitioning to STP40N65M2 for all new designs.
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 20 A at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS10875. This reflects thermal derating due to junction-to-case thermal resistance (RthJC = 0.5 °C/W) and maximum rated junction temperature (TJ = 150 °C), limiting power dissipation to 100 W under those conditions.
Does STI40N65M2 require external gate protection?
No-STI40N65M2 integrates a Zener diode between gate and source, clamping VGS to ±25 V. This eliminates the need for external gate protection components in most industrial applications, though a small series resistor (≤10 Ω) is still recommended to dampen gate ringing and limit peak current during fast edge transitions.
Can STI40N65M2 be used in synchronous rectification?
Not recommended as a synchronous rectifier-its body diode has trr = 468 ns and Qrr = 8.7 µC, which causes significant reverse recovery loss and voltage spikes when commutated at >100 kHz. Dedicated low-Qrr Schottky or GaN FETs are preferred for SR applications; STI40N65M2 is optimized for primary-side hard switching.
