Product details
Overview
STL125N8F7AG from STMicroelectronics is an AEC-Q101 qualified N-channel 80 V Power MOSFET in PowerFLAT 5x6 package, featuring 3.6 mΩ typ. RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 120 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 170 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy - deployed in automotive high-current DC-DC converters and motor control inverters.
For engineers reviewing the STL125N8F7AG datasheet, STL125N8F7AG pinout, STL125N8F7AG application, or STL125N8F7AG equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) vs. temperature stability, Crss/Ciss ratio for EMI robustness, wettable flank solder joint inspection capability, and junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.9 °C/W.
Technical Context
This device implements STripFET F7 trench-gate technology to achieve ultra-low on-resistance while reducing gate charge (Qg = 76 nC) and reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 77 pF), enabling fast switching (td(off) = 47 ns, tf = 23 ns) with low EMI generation in hard-switched topologies.
Its enhanced avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 170 mJ, IAV = 50 A) and wide operating junction temperature range (–55 to +175 °C) support reliable operation in automotive under-hood environments where thermal transients and load dump events occur.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 80 V - Supports 48 V automotive systems with 20 % margin against ISO 7637-2 load dump peaks. |
| RDS(on) max | 4.5 mΩ - Enables <1.2 W conduction loss at 120 A, critical for high-efficiency traction inverters. |
| ID (cont.) | 120 A @ TC = 25 °C - Matches peak phase current requirements in 10–15 kW BLDC motor drives. |
| EAS | 170 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive switching stress without failure in H-bridge configurations. |
| RthJC | 0.9 °C/W - Allows direct heatsinking to copper planes or external metal-core PCBs for thermal management. |
| Crss/Ciss | 77/5570 pF - Low ratio minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk and improves gate drive immunity. |
| Qg | 76 nC - Reduces gate driver power demand and enables use of cost-effective 1-A peak drivers. |
Pinout & Package
STL125N8F7AG uses the PowerFLAT 5x6 WF type C package with wettable flanks for automated optical solder-joint inspection. The exposed drain pad occupies the center-bottom area, and terminals are arranged in a 4-pin configuration with dual-source and dual-drain layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (pins 5, 6, 7, 8) | Drain | High-current output node connected to internal die backside; electrically tied to exposed copper pad for thermal and electrical conduction. |
| G (pin 4) | Gate | Control input requiring ≤10 V drive; isolated from drain by optimized trench gate structure to minimize Miller feedback. |
| S (pins 1, 2, 3) | Source | Return path for load current; split into three pins to reduce parasitic inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive under-hood use per stress test conditions including HTOL, TC, and UHAST. |
| Wettable flank package | Side-wettable leads enable AOI detection of solder fillet integrity without X-ray inspection. |
| Low Crss/Ciss ratio | 1.4 % - Reduces dv/dt-induced gate voltage spikes and improves noise immunity in noisy ECU environments. |
| High avalanche ruggedness | 170 mJ EAS at VDD = 60 V - Eliminates need for external snubbers in inductive load switching. |
| Enhanced FoM (RDS(on) × Qg) | 342 Ω·nC - Balances conduction and switching losses for optimal efficiency in 20–100 kHz PWM applications. |
Applications
| Automotive DC-DC Converters | Electric Power Steering (EPS) |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 80 V Power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP036N08N8 | RDS(on) = 3.6 mΩ typ., Qg = 82 nC, same PowerSO-12 package but no wettable flanks. | Lacks AEC-Q101 certification and side-wettable leads - unsuitable for automotive AOI-based production lines. | Select only for industrial non-automotive applications where optical solder inspection is not required. |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS5C673NL | RDS(on) = 4.0 mΩ typ., Qg = 65 nC, Power56 package with wettable flanks and AEC-Q101 rated. | Lower gate charge improves switching efficiency but higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss at >100 A. | Prefer for space-constrained designs needing lower Qg, accept trade-off in thermal performance at full load. |
Compared with IPP036N08N8 and NTMFS5C673NL, STL125N8F7AG uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, wettable flank inspection capability, and best-in-class FoM (342 Ω·nC), making it optimal for safety-critical automotive power stages where both reliability and manufacturability are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable gate-source voltage for STL125N8F7AG?
The absolute maximum VGS rating is ±20 V, with recommended operating range limited to –10 V to +15 V for reliable long-term performance. Exceeding ±20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage, and sustained operation above +15 V accelerates threshold voltage drift over temperature and lifetime.
Does STL125N8F7AG support paralleling for higher current capacity?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) (normalized to 1.8× at TJ = 175 °C) ensures inherent current sharing when multiple devices are paralleled. Layout must balance source inductance and thermal coupling; ST recommends symmetrical PCB routing and shared heatsink mounting.
How does the wettable flank feature impact assembly yield?
The wettable flank geometry enables automated optical inspection (AOI) of solder fillets on all four side terminals, increasing defect detection rate for head-in-pillow and insufficient solder joints by >92 % compared to standard PowerFLAT packages - directly improving first-pass yield in automotive SMT lines.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the body diode?
The body diode exhibits Qrr = 66 nC under test conditions of ISD = 100 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, and VDD = 64 V. This low value supports efficient synchronous rectification and reduces switching losses in freewheeling paths without requiring external Schottky clamps.
