Product details
Overview
STL15DN4F5 from STMicroelectronics is an automotive-grade dual N-channel Power MOSFET using STripFET™ F5 technology, rated for 40 V VDS, 9 mΩ RDS(on) max at VGS = 10 V and 7.5 A, and 15 A continuous drain current at Tpcb = 25 °C. It features wettable flank PowerFLAT™ 5x6 double island packaging and is AEC-Q101 qualified for under-hood switching in engine control units and body electronics.
For engineers reviewing the STL15DN4F5 datasheet, STL15DN4F5 pinout, STL15DN4F5 application, or STL15DN4F5 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low 8–9 mΩ on-resistance, 25 nC total gate charge, 35 °C/W junction-to-PCB thermal resistance, and dual-channel configuration enabling compact half-bridge or load-switch designs in space-constrained automotive modules.
Technical Context
This device integrates two independent N-channel MOSFETs in a single PowerFLAT™ 5x6 double island package with exposed source pads on both islands. Its STripFET™ F5 process enables optimized cell pitch and reduced specific on-resistance, delivering a figure-of-merit (RDS(on) × Qg) of ~225 mΩ·nC.
The MOSFET supports unclamped inductive switching with 150 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy and exhibits fast switching: 18 ns turn-on delay, 45 ns rise time, 32 ns turn-off delay, and 5 ns fall time under standard test conditions (VDD = 20 V, ID = 7.5 A, RG = 4.7 Ω).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 12 V automotive systems with transient suppression margin |
| RDS(on) max | 9 mΩ @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 7.5 A - Enables <1.4 W conduction loss at 15 A per channel |
| ID continuous | 15 A @ Tpcb = 25 °C - Validated PCB-level current rating for FR-4 board with 1 in² copper area |
| Qg | 25 nC - Low gate drive power requirement; reduces driver IC loading and EMI during switching |
| Rthj-pcb | 35 °C/W - Thermal path optimized for direct PCB copper thermal spreading without heatsink |
| EAS | 150 mJ - Avalanche ruggedness verified at wafer level for inductive load turn-off reliability |
Pinout & Package
STL15DN4F5 uses the PowerFLAT™ 5x6 double island WF type C package: 5.0–5.4 mm × 6.2–6.6 mm footprint, 0.8–1.0 mm height, with two isolated source pads (D2/D3 and D4/D5) and shared drain terminals (D/E side). Wettable flanks enable automated optical solder-joint inspection.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Top-side metal pad) | Power output node | Common high-current drain connection for both channels; requires large copper pour for thermal and current handling |
| Source 1 (Island A) | Channel 1 return path | Exposed copper pad for Channel 1 source; electrically isolated from Source 2 for half-bridge bootstrap operation |
| Source 2 (Island B) | Channel 2 return path | Exposed copper pad for Channel 2 source; enables independent grounding or floating bias in synchronous rectifier topologies |
| Gate 1 / Gate 2 | Control inputs | Separate gate terminals (pins 1 & 2) allow independent PWM control of each N-channel switch |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q101 qualification | Validated for automotive temperature range (−55 to 175 °C) and mechanical stress requirements |
| Wettable flank leads | Enables AOI-compatible solder joint inspection on bottom-side SMT assembly |
| Low RDS(on) × Qg | ~225 mΩ·nC - Balances conduction and switching losses for high-efficiency 100–200 kHz DC-DC stages |
| Double island isolation | Galvanic separation between source terminals supports high-side/low-side driver independence |
| Low VSD | 1.1 V @ ISD = 15 A - Reduces reverse conduction loss in synchronous rectification applications |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual N-channel automotive MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon BSC014N04LS6 | 40 V, 1.4 mΩ RDS(on), 100 A IDcont @ TC; single-channel, smaller PQFN 3.3×3.3 mm | Higher current density but no dual-channel integration; requires two devices for same functionality | Select when board space permits discrete layout and higher peak current capability is needed over dual integration |
| ON Semiconductor NTMFS4C09NT1G | 40 V, 9.5 mΩ RDS(on), 15.5 A ID @ Tpcb; dual N-channel in SO-8FL, non-wettable flanks | Lacks wettable flanks and AEC-Q101 full qualification; lower thermal performance (Rthj-pcb = 50 °C/W) | Acceptable for non-safety-critical cabin modules where optical inspection is not required and thermal margin is available |
Compared with BSC014N04LS6 and NTMFS4C09NT1G, STL15DN4F5 uniquely combines AEC-Q101 compliance, wettable flank inspection capability, and integrated dual-channel topology in a thermally optimized 5×6 mm footprint-making it optimal for space- and reliability-constrained automotive power stages requiring single-component half-bridge or dual-load solutions.

FAQ
What is the maximum allowable PCB temperature for continuous 15 A operation?
The datasheet specifies 15 A continuous drain current at Tpcb = 25 °C, measured on an FR-4 board with 1 in² copper area and 2 oz Cu thickness. At Tpcb = 100 °C, the rated current drops to 10 A due to thermal derating governed by Rthj-pcb = 35 °C/W. Operation above 100 °C PCB temperature requires derating or enhanced cooling.
Does STL15DN4F5 support paralleling of its two channels for higher current?
No-the two N-channel MOSFETs share a common drain terminal but have electrically isolated source pads; they are not internally matched for current sharing. Paralleling requires external current-balancing resistors and individual gate drive paths, which negates the benefit of dual integration. Each channel is intended for independent control.
Is the 150 mJ avalanche energy rating applicable in system-level design?
The 150 mJ EAS is wafer-level tested under controlled unclamped inductive switching (VDD = 24 V, IAV = 7.5 A). It provides margin against single-event inductive spikes but is not intended for repetitive avalanche operation. System design must ensure SOA compliance and avoid repeated avalanche stress.
Can STL15DN4F5 be used with 5 V logic-level gate drive?
No-its gate threshold voltage is 2–4 V, but RDS(on) is specified only at VGS = 10 V. At 5 V, RDS(on) increases significantly (>25 mΩ), raising conduction loss beyond acceptable levels. A 10 V gate drive is required to achieve the rated 9 mΩ performance and thermal stability.
