Product details
Overview
STL300N4LF8 from STMicroelectronics is a 40 V N-channel logic-level Power MOSFET in PowerFLAT 5x6 package, featuring 1.0 mΩ max. RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 304 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 175 °C maximum junction temperature. It delivers ultra-low conduction loss and fast switching for high-efficiency motor drives and industrial power converters.
For engineers reviewing the STL300N4LF8 datasheet, STL300N4LF8 pinout, STL300N4LF8 application, or STL300N4LF8 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.0 mΩ on-resistance, 70 nC total gate charge at 10 V, 100% avalanche tested ruggedness, and PowerFLAT 5x6 thermal performance with RthJC = 0.9 °C/W.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's STripFET F8 trench-gate technology to simultaneously minimize RDS(on), output capacitance (Coss = 1700 pF), and reverse transfer capacitance (Crss = 25 pF), enabling high-frequency synchronous rectification and hard-switched topologies. Its logic-level gate threshold (VGS(th) = 1.2–2.0 V) ensures full enhancement with standard 3.3 V/5 V microcontroller outputs.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 121 A forward current capability, 1.1 V forward voltage at 60 A, and low Qrr = 70 nC - critical for minimizing commutation losses in bridge configurations. Its MSL1 rating and 100% avalanche testing support reliable operation under transient overloads in motor control and UPS systems.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 40 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 24–36 V DC bus applications including BLDC motor inverters and industrial SMPS. |
| RDS(on) max. | 1.0 mΩ at VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.8 W conduction loss at 300 A, reducing heatsink requirements in high-current power stages. |
| ID continuous | 304 A at TC = 25 °C - Sustains peak load currents in industrial tools and servo drives without derating when properly heatsinked. |
| Qg | 70 nC at VGS = 0–10 V - Supports efficient gate driving with ≤2 W driver power at 100 kHz switching, minimizing gate driver stress. |
| TJ max. | 175 °C - Allows operation in harsh environments (e.g., enclosed motor controllers) while maintaining SOA integrity up to 10 ms pulses. |

Pinout & Package
STL300N4LF8 uses the PowerFLAT 5x6 type B surface-mount package (JEDEC MO-263AB), optimized for high-current PCB mounting with exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical performance. The package features a 5 mm × 6 mm footprint, 1.0 mm max. height, and MSL1 moisture sensitivity rating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Pins 5, 6, 7, 8) | Drain | High-current output node connected to internal silicon die; electrically and thermally tied to exposed metal pad for low-inductance, low-resistance path. |
| G (Pin 4) | Gate | Control input requiring ≤70 nC charge; logic-compatible with 3.3 V/5 V drivers; isolated by 20 V max. VGS rating. |
| S (Pins 1, 2, 3) | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; multiple pins reduce parasitic inductance and improve current sharing in high-di/dt switching. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Infineon IPP026N04L | RDS(on) = 2.6 mΩ (higher), Qg = 52 nC (lower), TO-220FP package | Limited to ≤150 A due to package thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.2 °C/W); requires heatsink mounting. | Select when board space allows through-hole mounting and lower gate drive power is prioritized over conduction loss. |
| Vishay SiR626DP | RDS(on) = 1.2 mΩ (slightly higher), Qg = 75 nC (slightly higher), PowerPAK 5x6 package | Same footprint but 10% higher RDS(on) increases conduction loss by ~20 W at 300 A; no avalanche rating specified. | Select when supply chain diversification is required and 1.2 mΩ on-resistance is acceptable for thermal budget. |
Compared with IPP026N04L and SiR626DP, STL300N4LF8 offers the lowest RDS(on) and highest avalanche ruggedness in a surface-mount package, making it optimal for space-constrained, high-current industrial inverters where thermal density and transient reliability are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STL300N4LF8 supports 215 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS14228 Rev 2. This value reflects thermal derating due to reduced heat transfer efficiency at elevated case temperatures and must be validated against actual PCB copper area and airflow conditions.
Does this MOSFET require a gate resistor for safe operation?
A gate resistor is recommended to control dV/dt and prevent oscillation during switching. With Qg = 70 nC and typical driver output impedance, a 4.7 Ω resistor limits peak gate current to ~2.1 A and achieves ~14 ns turn-on delay and ~55 ns turn-off delay per Table 5, ensuring stable hard-switching behavior.
Can STL300N4LF8 be used in synchronous rectification topologies?
Yes - its low RDS(on) (1.0 mΩ), low Crss (25 pF), and logic-level gate threshold make it suitable for synchronous rectification in DC-DC converters up to 300 kHz. The integrated body diode's 70 nC Qrr and 60 ns trr further support zero-voltage switching transitions.
Is the PowerFLAT 5x6 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - the STL300N4LF8 PowerFLAT 5x6 package meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and is lead-free, halogen-free, and compliant with ST's ECOPACK2 environmental standard. Full compliance documentation is available in the device's package information section of DS14228.
