Product details
Overview
STN1NF10 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in SOT-223 package, rated for 100 V drain-source voltage, 0.7 Ω typical RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 1 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C. It features rugged avalanche capability (35 mJ single-pulse), high dv/dt immunity (20 V/ns), and is optimized for low-power switching in DC-DC converters and load-switching circuits.
For engineers reviewing the STN1NF10 datasheet, STN1NF10 pinout, STN1NF10 application, or STN1NF10 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 V blocking rating, 0.7 Ω on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, thermal resistance to PCB (50 °C/W on 1 inch² copper), unclamped inductive switching robustness, and SOT-223 footprint compatibility with manual or automated assembly.
Technical Context
This device employs ST's STripFET™ II process with strip-based cell architecture, enabling high die packing density and low specific on-resistance. Its gate threshold voltage (2–4 V) supports TTL/CMOS-compatible drive, and its 1 S typical transconductance ensures stable gain under switching conditions.
The integrated body diode exhibits 1.2 V forward voltage at 1 A and 45 ns reverse recovery time under specified inductive test conditions (di/dt = 100 A/µs, Tj = 150°C), making it suitable for freewheeling paths where controlled recovery is required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 100 V - Maximum drain-source blocking voltage before avalanche onset |
| RDS(on) | 0.7 Ω (typ) at VGS = 10 V, ID = 0.5 A - Determines conduction loss in low-current switching applications |
| ID (cont) | 1 A at TC = 25°C - Continuous safe operating current with adequate heatsinking |
| EAS | 35 mJ - Single-pulse avalanche energy rating confirms ruggedness under inductive turn-off stress |
| dv/dt | 20 V/ns - High immunity to false triggering during fast voltage transients |
| Qg | 4–6 nC - Total gate charge defining driver strength requirement for 100 kHz-class switching |
| Rthj-pcb | 50 °C/W - Thermal resistance to 1 inch² copper PCB, critical for passive cooling design |
Pinout & Package
SOT-223 package: surface-mount, 4-terminal (3 leads + tab), thermally enhanced with exposed drain pad connected to lead 2 (Drain). Tab is electrically connected to Drain (pin 2).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Source) | Source terminal | Reference node for gate drive; connects to low-side return path |
| 2 (Drain) | Drain terminal / Exposed tab | Main power output; tab provides primary thermal path to PCB copper |
| 3 (Gate) | Control input | High-impedance MOS gate requiring <6 nC charge for full enhancement |
| 4 (Source) | Second source connection | Redundant source bond wire improving current sharing and reducing source inductance |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| STripFET™ II process | Enables 0.7 Ω RDS(on) in SOT-223 - delivers higher current density than planar MOSFETs of same footprint |
| Rugged avalanche capability | 35 mJ single-pulse EAS - eliminates need for external snubbers in relay-drive or solenoid-switching |
| High dv/dt immunity | 20 V/ns - prevents spurious turn-on in noisy industrial environments with fast-switching loads |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel low-power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ON Semiconductor NSS1C200MZ4T1G | RDS(on) = 0.85 Ω (min), VDSS = 100 V, SOT-223 - higher on-resistance, lower Qg (3.5 nC) | Lower gate drive demand but higher conduction loss at 1 A | Prefer when gate drive voltage is limited to 5 V or driver output current is constrained |
| Vishay SI2301DS-T1-BE3 | RDS(on) = 0.135 Ω (max) at VGS = 4.5 V, VDSS = 20 V, SOT-23 - lower voltage rating, smaller package | Not suitable for 100 V applications; requires redesign for voltage derating | Only viable in sub-24 V systems where footprint reduction outweighs voltage margin loss |
Compared with NSS1C200MZ4T1G and SI2301DS-T1-BE3, STN1NF10 uniquely balances 100 V capability, 0.7 Ω on-resistance, and SOT-223 thermal performance-making it optimal for space-constrained 12–48 V industrial switching where avalanche ruggedness matters.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for STN1NF10 junction?
The STN1NF10 has a specified operating junction temperature range of –55°C to +150°C. Its absolute maximum TJ is 150°C; sustained operation above this risks permanent parametric shift or failure. Derating begins at TC = 25°C with a 0.02 W/°C reduction in total dissipation, requiring thermal design that maintains TJ ≤ 150°C under worst-case ambient and power conditions.
Can STN1NF10 be used in linear (analog) mode operation?
STN1NF10 is not characterized or guaranteed for linear-mode operation. Its Safe Operating Area (SOA) curve (Figure 1) shows limited DC capability beyond 100 ms pulses, and no SOA data is provided for extended linear bias. For analog applications like current regulation or amplification, ST recommends dedicated linear MOSFETs with fully specified SOA and thermal stability.
Is the SOT-223 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes. STN1NF10 is supplied in an ECOPACK®-compliant SOT-223 package with lead-free second-level interconnect, conforming to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and JEDEC Standard JESD97. The inner box label and package marking indicate the lead-free status, and soldering profiles must follow ST's recommended reflow guidelines for Pb-free processes.
Does STN1NF10 require a gate resistor for basic switching?
A gate resistor is recommended to control switching speed and suppress ringing. With Qg = 4–6 nC and typical driver output impedance, a 4.7 Ω resistor (as used in ST's test circuit Figure 13) achieves balanced turn-on/turn-off times (~5 ns rise, ~6.5 ns fall). Omitting it may cause overshoot, EMI, or shoot-through in half-bridge configurations.
