Product details

Overview

STP130NH02L from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220 package, rated for 24 V V_DSS, 90 A continuous drain current at T_C = 25°C, and ultra-low R_DS(on) of 0.0034 Ω at V_GS = 10 V. It features low gate charge (Q_g = 69 nC), fast switching (t_f = 40 ns), and optimized for high-current synchronous buck DC-DC converters.

For engineers reviewing the STP130NH02L datasheet, STP130NH02L pinout, STP130NH02L application, or STP130NH02L equivalent, key selection criteria include conduction loss minimization at >45 A loads, third-quadrant gate charge (Q_gls = 64 nC) for synchronous rectification, and avalanche energy rating (E_AS = 900 mJ) for unclamped inductive switching robustness.

Technical Context

This MOSFET employs ST's STripFET™ II process to achieve a balanced trade-off between R_DS(on) and gate charge-critical for efficiency in high-frequency, high-current DC-DC stages. Its low threshold voltage (V_GS(th) = 1 V typ.) enables direct drive from 3.3 V or 5 V controllers without level-shifting.

The device integrates a robust body diode with t_rr = 47 ns and Q_rr = 58 nC at 150°C, supporting zero-voltage switching (ZVS) transitions and minimizing cross-conduction risk in synchronous topologies when paired with a matched high-side switch.

Key Specifications

Parameter	Value and Actual Design Meaning
V_DSS	24 V - Maximum blocking voltage for low-voltage DC-DC input rails (e.g., 12 V or 24 V bus)
R_DS(on)	0.0034 Ω @ V_GS = 10 V, I_D = 45 A - Enables <1.5 W conduction loss at 90 A in parallel configurations
I_D (cont)	90 A @ T_C = 25°C - Sustains high output currents typical in server VRMs and telecom POL converters
Q_g	69 nC - Reduces gate drive power loss and supports >500 kHz switching with standard gate drivers
E_AS	900 mJ - Withstands single-pulse inductive energy in unclamped load-switch or motor-drive fault conditions
t_f	40 ns - Limits switching transition time to reduce overlap losses in synchronous buck operation
Q_gls	64 nC - Third-quadrant gate charge optimized for efficient synchronous rectification during body-diode conduction

Pinout & Package

STP130NH02L uses the standard TO-220 package with three leads: Drain (tab), Source (pin 1), Gate (pin 2). The metal tab is electrically connected to the Drain and serves as primary thermal path.

Pin/Terminal	Circuit Role	Design Meaning
Tab (Drain)	Main current-carrying terminal, thermally coupled to heatsink	Provides low-inductance, high-current path and primary heat dissipation interface (R_thj-case = 1.0 °C/W)
Pin 1 (Source)	Reference node for gate drive and current return path	Connected directly to PCB ground plane; critical for stable gate control and minimizing common-source inductance
Pin 2 (Gate)	Control electrode for channel formation	Requires low-impedance gate driver (R_G = 4.7 Ω recommended) to manage Q_g = 69 nC within nanosecond-scale timing

Key Features

Feature	Design Value
Ultra-low R_DS(on) × Q_g figure-of-merit	0.234 Ω·nC - Industry benchmark for high-current, high-efficiency DC-DC low-side switches
Optimized third-quadrant gate charge (Q_gls)	64 nC - Enables fast, controlled turn-on during synchronous rectification without shoot-through risk
Robust avalanche capability	E_AS = 900 mJ - Eliminates need for external snubbers in unclamped inductive load applications
Low reverse recovery charge (Q_rr)	58 nC @ 150°C - Minimizes switching loss and EMI in high-dv/dt synchronous buck phases
ECOPACK® lead-free packaging	RoHS-compliant TO-220 with lead-free second-level interconnect - Meets JEDEC JESD97 environmental requirements

Equivalent & Alternatives

The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar low-side synchronous rectifier applications.

Alternative Part	Technical Difference	Application Difference	Selection Advice
IRF1324S-7PP	R_DS(on) = 0.0019 Ω @ 10 V but Q_g = 120 nC; TO-263 package	Higher current density but requires larger gate driver; unsuitable for TO-220 footprint replacement	Select only if board redesign permits D²PAK layout and gate drive can support >100 nC charge
IXTP130N02T2	R_DS(on) = 0.0032 Ω @ 10 V, Q_g = 72 nC; TO-220, same pinout	Near-identical electrical specs; slightly lower R_DS(on) but no specified Q_gls or E_AS data	Drop-in mechanical replacement where third-quadrant behavior and avalanche rating are not mission-critical

Compared with IRF1324S-7PP and IXTP130N02T2, STP130NH02L uniquely combines verified Q_gls = 64 nC and E_AS = 900 mJ in TO-220-making it preferred for synchronous buck designs requiring both high efficiency and fault robustness without package change.

FAQ

What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100°C case temperature?

The STP130NH02L maintains 90 A continuous drain current rating at T_C = 100°C, as confirmed in Table 1 of the datasheet under "ID (2) Drain current (continuous) at TC = 100°C". This reflects its wire-bond-limited current capacity rather than thermal derating, enabling consistent high-current performance across extended industrial temperature ranges.

Does STP130NH02L support gate drive from 3.3 V logic?

Yes-the gate threshold voltage V_GS(th) is specified at 1 V (min), 1.5 V (typ.), allowing reliable turn-on with 3.3 V gate drive. However, full R_DS(on) specification (0.0034 Ω) requires V_GS = 10 V; at 3.3 V, R_DS(on) rises significantly (~0.012 Ω), limiting use to low-duty-cycle or low-current auxiliary switching roles.

Is the TO-220 tab electrically isolated from the leads?

No-the metal tab is internally connected to the Drain terminal, as confirmed by the internal schematic diagram and pinout table. Electrical isolation requires insulating hardware (e.g., shoulder washers, silicone pads) when mounting to a heatsink tied to system ground or another potential.

What is the safe operating area (SOA) limitation at 100 V drain-source voltage?

At V_DS = 100 V, the SOA is limited to ≤10 A for pulse widths ≤10 ms (per Figure 1), due to secondary breakdown constraints. This condition exceeds the device's 24 V V_DSS rating and is not permitted-operation above 24 V violates absolute maximum ratings and risks immediate failure.
