Product details
Overview
STL180N6F7 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 60 V, 1.9 mΩ typ. (2.4 mΩ max.), 120 A Power MOSFET in PowerFLAT™ 5x6 package, leveraging STripFET™ F7 trench technology for ultra-low RDS(on), reduced gate charge (79.5 nC), and high avalanche ruggedness. It serves as a primary high-current switching device in DC-DC converters and motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the STL180N6F7 datasheet, STL180N6F7 pinout, STL180N6F7 application, or STL180N6F7 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.9 mΩ on-resistance at VGS = 10 V, 216 pF Crss/Ciss ratio for EMI immunity, 175 °C max junction temperature, and thermal resistance of 0.9 °C/W (junction-to-case).
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs an enhanced trench gate structure that simultaneously minimizes RDS(on) and internal capacitances-Ciss = 4825 pF, Coss = 2240 pF, Crss = 216 pF-enabling fast switching with td(on) = 33.9 ns and tf = 42.2 ns under 4.7 Ω gate drive.
Its robust unclamped inductive switching capability supports high-reliability operation up to 480 A pulsed drain current (IDM), with guaranteed avalanche energy rating and 1.2 V source-drain diode forward voltage at 32 A-critical for synchronous rectification and freewheeling paths.

Pinout & Package
STL180N6F7 uses the PowerFLAT™ 5x6 type C surface-mount package (6.0 × 5.2 mm footprint, 1.0 mm height), optimized for high-current PCB thermal dissipation via exposed drain pad. The top view shows pins labeled D(5,6,7,8), G(4), S(1,2,3), with pins 1–3 and 5–8 electrically tied internally to source and drain respectively.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 60 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF1407PBF | RDS(on) = 4.8 mΩ (max), Qg = 120 nC, TO-220 package | Higher conduction loss, slower switching, through-hole mounting only | Select when legacy board layout or higher single-pulse surge tolerance is prioritized over efficiency and density |
| IXFH120N60X3 | RDS(on) = 3.2 mΩ (typ), Qg = 112 nC, TO-247 package | Lower thermal performance (Rthj-case = 0.45 °C/W but larger footprint), higher cost | Choose when maximum avalanche energy rating (EAS = 1200 mJ) outweighs PCB area and thermal design constraints |

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for STL180N6F7 at PCB temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current is 32 A at Tpcb = 25 °C and 20 A at Tpcb = 100 °C, rated according to Rthj-pcb = 31.3 °C/W on a 1 inch² FR-4 board with 2 oz copper. This reflects real-world PCB-limited thermal performance, distinct from case-mounted ratings.
Does STL180N6F7 support logic-level gate drive?
Yes-its gate threshold voltage VGS(th) ranges from 2 V to 4 V, making it fully compatible with standard 3.3 V and 5 V microcontroller GPIO outputs. However, full enhancement to 120 A requires VGS ≥ 10 V for minimum RDS(on).
How is avalanche ruggedness validated for STL180N6F7?
STL180N6F7 is characterized for unclamped inductive switching (UIS) per JEDEC JESD24-1, with guaranteed single-pulse avalanche energy rating. Test data confirms reliable operation at 480 A pulsed drain current (IDM) with no degradation, verified across -55 °C to 175 °C junction temperature range.
Can STL180N6F7 be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
Yes-the integrated source-drain diode has VSD = 1.2 V at 32 A and trr = 60.3 ns, enabling efficient synchronous rectification in buck and LLC converters. Its low Qrr = 72.4 nC minimizes reverse recovery loss and EMI generation during commutation.
