Product details
Overview
STP140NF75 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 75V Power MOSFET in TO-220 package, featuring RDS(on) ≤ 0.0075 Ω at VGS = 10 V, 120 A continuous drain current at TC = 25°C, 100% avalanche tested, and optimized for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and motor drive half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the STP140NF75 datasheet, STP140NF75 pinout, STP140NF75 application, or STP140NF75 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance, rugged unclamped inductive switching capability (EAS = 750 mJ), thermal resistance (Rthj-case = 0.48 °C/W), and gate charge profile (Qg = 160 nC) for hard-switched power stages.
Technical Context
This STripFET™ III device uses ST's "Single Feature Size™" strip-based process to achieve high cell density and low RDS(on). Its SOA is defined for unclamped inductive loads with pulse energy limited by junction temperature and thermal impedance.
The integrated body diode exhibits trr = 115 ns and Qrr = 450 nC under specified conditions (ISD = 120 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, Tj = 150°C), enabling synchronous rectification in high-frequency buck converters without external Schottky replacement.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 75 V - Maximum blocking voltage for 48 V bus systems with 50% safety margin against transients. |
| RDS(on) | ≤ 0.0075 Ω - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 120 A, critical for high-current power stages. |
| ID (cont) | 120 A @ TC = 25°C - Sustains full load in industrial motor drives with heatsink-mounted TO-220 layout. |
| EAS | 750 mJ - Supports single-pulse unclamped inductive switching up to 60 A at 30 V without failure. |
| Qg | 160 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement; compatible with standard 2 A peak drivers at 100 kHz. |
| Rthj-case | 0.48 °C/W - Allows 310 W dissipation at ΔT = 150°C, defining minimum heatsink thermal mass for continuous operation. |
| trr | 115 ns - Limits reverse recovery losses in synchronous buck topologies operating above 200 kHz. |
Pinout & Package
STP140NF75 is housed in a through-hole TO-220 package with isolated tab (drain-connected). The case is electrically connected to pin 2 (Drain), requiring insulating mounting hardware when mounted to grounded heatsinks.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Gate | High-impedance control terminal; requires 10 V drive for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD. |
| 2 | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; internally bonded to metal tab; must be insulated from heatsink unless system ground referenced. |
| 3 | Source | Power return path and gate reference node; connects to PCB ground plane for low-inductance switching loop. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees robustness in unclamped inductive switching events without derating or external snubbers. |
| STripFET™ III process | Delivers 25% lower RDS(on) vs prior generation at same die size, improving power density in space-constrained designs. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio (70/160 nC) | Reduces Miller plateau duration, enabling faster turn-off and improved hard-switching efficiency. |
| ECOPACK® compliant | Lead-free second-level interconnect meets RoHS and JEDEC JESD97 marking requirements for environmental compliance. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 75V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFB4115PBF | RDS(on) = 0.0055 Ω, Qg = 195 nC, TO-220 package, no avalanche rating specified | Lacks guaranteed avalanche ruggedness; requires external clamping in inductive switching | Prefer when lowest conduction loss dominates and SOA stress is absent |
| IXTH120N075L2 | RDS(on) = 0.0072 Ω, Qg = 135 nC, TO-247 package, 100% UIS tested | Larger footprint and higher cost; superior gate charge but no thermal advantage over TO-220 | Choose when higher gate drive margin or legacy TO-247 board compatibility required |
Compared with IRFB4115PBF and IXTH120N075L2, STP140NF75 uniquely balances low RDS(on), proven avalanche immunity, and TO-220 manufacturability-making it optimal for cost-sensitive, reliability-critical industrial power stages where thermal management is constrained.

FAQ
What is the maximum safe operating temperature for STP140NF75?
The maximum junction temperature (Tj) is 175°C, and the maximum lead temperature for soldering is 300°C for 10 seconds at 1.6 mm from the case. Continuous operation requires maintaining Tj ≤ 175°C via heatsink design using Rthj-case = 0.48 °C/W and ambient thermal path analysis.
Does STP140NF75 require a gate resistor for reliable switching?
Yes-a gate resistor (typically 4.7 Ω) is recommended to dampen ringing and control dV/dt during turn-on/turn-off. The datasheet specifies switching times (e.g., tr = 140 ns, tf = 90 ns) with RG = 4.7 Ω, and omitting it risks oscillation, shoot-through, or gate oxide overstress.
Can STP140NF75 replace STB140NF75 in existing designs?
Yes-STP140NF75 and STB140NF75 share identical electrical specifications (VDS, RDS(on), ID, EAS) and thermal ratings, differing only in package (TO-220 vs D2PAK). Mechanical redesign is required for footprint and mounting, but no circuit revalidation is needed for electrical performance.
Is the body diode suitable for synchronous rectification?
Yes-the source-drain diode has trr = 115 ns and Qrr = 450 nC under rated conditions, making it viable for synchronous rectification in buck converters up to ~300 kHz. However, for >95% efficiency targets, a discrete Schottky may still be preferred due to lower forward voltage.
