Product details
Overview
STP25N10F7 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel enhancement-mode Power MOSFET in TO-220 package, designed for high-efficiency switching applications requiring 100 V drain-source voltage, 25 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, 0.035 Ω max RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, and 50 W total power dissipation. It employs STripFET™ VII DeepGATE™ technology to achieve ultra-low on-resistance and is 100% avalanche tested for ruggedness.
For engineers reviewing the STP25N10F7 datasheet, STP25N10F7 pinout, STP25N10F7 application, or STP25N10F7 equivalent, key selection criteria include thermal resistance (Rthj-case = 3 °C/W), gate charge (Qg = 14 nC), safe operating area (SOA) limits up to 100 A pulsed, reverse recovery performance (trr = 38 ns), and TO-220 mechanical compatibility with standard heatsinks.
Technical Context
This MOSFET uses a 7th-generation STripFET™ process with DeepGATE™ gate structure to minimize RDS(on) while maintaining robust avalanche capability and fast switching. Its SOA is defined up to 10 ms single-pulse operation at TC = 25 °C, with current limiting governed by RDS(on) at high VDS.
Dynamic behavior is characterized by low Ciss (920 pF), Coss (215 pF), and Crss (19 pF) at VDS = 50 V, enabling efficient hard-switching in DC-DC converters and motor drives. The source-drain diode exhibits trr = 38 ns and Qrr = 29 nC under specified conditions (ISD = 25 A, di/dt = 100 A/μs, Tj = 150 °C).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche onset; supports 48 V and 60 V bus systems with margin. |
| RDS(on) max | 0.035 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1 W conduction loss at 25 A, critical for thermal management in high-current switches. |
| ID cont | 25 A @ TC = 25 °C - Continuous current rating achievable with adequate heatsinking; derates to 18 A at TC = 100 °C. |
| PTOT | 50 W @ TC = 25 °C - Total power dissipation limit; corresponds to Rthj-case = 3 °C/W and ΔT = 150 °C junction-to-case rise. |
| Qg | 14 nC - Total gate charge determines drive strength requirement; enables ~10 ns turn-on delay with 4.7 Ω gate resistor. |
| trr | 38 ns - Reverse recovery time of integrated body diode; reduces switching losses and EMI in synchronous rectification. |
| VISO | 2500 V RMS - Insulation withstand voltage from leads to heatsink; ensures safety compliance in isolated power stages. |
Pinout & Package
STP25N10F7 is housed in a through-hole TO-220 package with three leads and an electrically connected metal tab (drain). The package features standardized mounting hole spacing (3.75 mm pitch), 3.85 mm diameter mounting screw hole, and 15.25–15.75 mm D dimension per JEDEC TO-220 Type A specification.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control terminal | Receives 10 V logic-level signal to fully enhance channel; threshold voltage 2.5–4.5 V enables TTL/CMOS drive compatibility. |
| 2 (Drain) | High-side switch node | Connected to internal die backside and external metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to same potential. |
| 3 (Source) | Return path / reference node | Serves as common return for load current and gate drive reference; low-inductance layout essential for stable switching. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultra-low RDS(on) | 0.027 Ω typ. @ VGS = 10 V - Reduces I²R losses by >30% vs. prior-generation 100 V MOSFETs in same package. |
| 100% avalanche rated | Unclamped inductive switching validated per JEDEC JESD24-1 - Ensures reliability in flyback, boost, and motor phase-leg fault conditions. |
| STripFET™ VII DeepGATE™ | Optimized gate trench geometry - Improves charge balance and reduces gate-drain capacitance (Crss = 19 pF) for faster switching. |
| Low Qgd/Qg ratio | 3/14 nC = 0.21 - Minimizes Miller effect, enabling stable operation with moderate gate resistance without oscillation risk. |
| Enhanced SOA | 100 A pulsed current capability - Supports peak loads in UPS, e-fuse, and soft-start circuits without secondary protection. |
Applications
| DC-DC Converter Primary Switch | Industrial Motor Drive Half-Bridge |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-efficiency 48 V input buck converter delivering 20 A to FPGA core rail. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side main switch controlling energy transfer into output inductor; operates at 200–500 kHz. Use Value: Low RDS(on) (0.035 Ω) limits conduction loss to ≤17.5 W at full load, while fast trr (38 ns) minimizes dead-time losses in synchronous topology. |
Use Scenario: 24–48 V BLDC motor driver for HVAC blowers and industrial pumps. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in half-bridge configuration; commutated at 10–20 kHz with PWM modulation. Use Value: 100% avalanche rating protects against inductive kickback during abrupt current interruption; TO-220 package allows direct bolt-down heatsinking for 25 A continuous operation. |
| UPS Inverter Output Stage | Programmable Load Switch |
|
Use Scenario: 1 kVA online UPS converting 360 V DC bus to 230 V AC via full-bridge inverter. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: One quadrant switch in H-bridge leg; subjected to repetitive unclamped inductive stress during grid sync transitions. Use Value: Validated 2500 V isolation withstand and 100 A pulsed SOA ensure long-term reliability under worst-case line faults and zero-crossing switching events. |
Use Scenario: Hot-swap controller for 12 V/20 A server board power domain with overcurrent and short-circuit protection. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main pass element controlled by external current-sense amplifier and comparator; duty-cycled during fault limiting. Use Value: Low gate charge (14 nC) enables fast turn-off (<1 μs) during overcurrent events; RDS(on) tolerance ensures predictable trip point across temperature. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel 100 V power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF540NPbF | RDS(on) = 0.044 Ω max @ VGS = 10 V; Qg = 71 nC; no avalanche rating specified | Higher conduction loss (+26%) and slower switching due to 5× higher Qg; not qualified for repetitive avalanche stress | Acceptable only in non-critical, low-frequency linear or switching applications where ruggedness is not required. |
| IXTP25N10P | RDS(on) = 0.032 Ω max; Qg = 22 nC; avalanche rated to 100% of rated ID | Lower RDS(on) but higher gate charge increases drive loss; TO-220 package identical, pinout compatible | Preferred when lowest possible conduction loss is prioritized and gate drive capability supports higher Qg. |
Compared with IRF540NPbF and IXTP25N10P, STP25N10F7 delivers optimal balance of low RDS(on), moderate Qg, and guaranteed avalanche ruggedness-making it superior for industrial switching where reliability under transient overload is mandatory.

FAQ
Is STP25N10F7 suitable for 12 V automotive applications?
No. STP25N10F7 is not qualified for automotive use per ST's official documentation. It lacks AEC-Q101 qualification, has no specified operation down to –40 °C ambient (only –55 °C storage), and is explicitly excluded from automotive, safety-critical, and aerospace applications in its datasheet disclaimer.
What is the maximum gate-source voltage for reliable operation?
The absolute maximum VGS is ±20 V per Table 2. Operation beyond ±20 V risks permanent gate oxide damage. For robust design, gate drive should be limited to +12 V to +15 V with clamping, and negative bias (e.g., –5 V) is recommended during turn-off to prevent spurious turn-on in high-dV/dt environments.
Can STP25N10F7 replace STP20N10F7 in existing designs?
Yes, with verification. STP25N10F7 offers lower RDS(on) (0.035 Ω vs. 0.042 Ω) and higher ID (25 A vs. 20 A), but identical TO-220 package, pinout, and gate threshold. Thermal design must confirm heatsink adequacy for increased power density, and gate drive must handle slightly higher Qg (14 nC vs. 12 nC).
Does the TO-220 tab require electrical isolation from the heatsink?
Yes. The metal tab is internally connected to the drain terminal. Unless the heatsink is at the same potential as the drain node (e.g., floating or high-side configuration), an insulating washer and shoulder washer must be used to maintain creepage/clearance and prevent short circuits. VISO = 2500 V RMS applies only with proper isolation.
