Product details
Overview
SUP85N03-04P from Vishay Siliconix is an N-channel TrenchFET® power MOSFET rated for 30 V drain-source voltage, 85 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 0.0043 Ω rDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It operates up to 175 °C junction temperature and uses TO-263 (D2PAK) package with drain-connected tab, targeting high-current DC-DC converters and motor drive half-bridges.
For engineers reviewing the SUP85N03-04P datasheet, SUP85N03-04P pinout, SUP85N03-04P application, or SUP85N03-04P equivalent, key selection criteria include its 0.007 Ω rDS(on) at 4.5 V gate drive, 71 nC total gate charge, 175 °C thermal rating, and lead-free D2PAK packaging for industrial power stages requiring robust conduction and switching performance.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low on-resistance and fast switching in synchronous rectification and high-side/low-side switching configurations. Its 0.9 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance and 40 °C/W junction-to-ambient rating (PCB mount) support thermally constrained board-level designs.
The device features a built-in body diode with 1.1–1.5 V forward voltage at 85 A and 42–70 ns reverse recovery time, enabling use in freewheeling paths without external diodes. Avalanche energy rating of 280 mJ (L = 0.1 mH) supports unclamped inductive switching reliability.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRF8726PbF | rDS(on) = 0.0032 Ω @ 10 V, Qg = 17 nC, TO-220AB package | Lower gate charge but higher thermal resistance (1.5 °C/W); not surface-mount | Prefer when through-hole mounting and minimal drive loss are priorities over PCB space |
| STL220N3LLH6 | rDS(on) = 0.0022 Ω @ 10 V, 60 V rating, PowerFLAT 5x6 package | Higher voltage rating and smaller footprint but lower current rating (60 A) and no 175 °C rating | Prefer when board area is constrained and 60 V margin is required, but 175 °C operation is not needed |
Compared with IRF8726PbF and STL220N3LLH6, SUP85N03-04P uniquely balances 85 A current, 175 °C rating, D2PAK thermal performance, and logic-level compatibility-making it optimal for high-reliability, surface-mount industrial power stages where thermal headroom and gate drive simplicity are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SUP85N03-04P at 100 °C case temperature?
The SUP85N03-04P supports 85 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table. This rating is package-limited and applies to both TO-220AB and TO-263 variants. Derating is required above 100 °C case temperature per the SOA curve, and thermal design must ensure junction temperature remains ≤175 °C under worst-case operating conditions.
Is SUP85N03-04P compatible with 3.3 V microcontroller gate drive?
Yes, SUP85N03-04P delivers 0.007 Ω rDS(on) at VGS = 4.5 V, making it functional with 3.3 V logic levels when used with gate boosting or level-shifting circuitry. However, full 85 A current capability requires ≥4.5 V gate drive; for direct 3.3 V GPIO drive, derating to ~60 A is recommended based on rDS(on) vs. VGS curves in the datasheet.
Does SUP85N03-04P have avalanche capability, and how is it rated?
Yes, SUP85N03-04P is rated for repetitive avalanche with 280 mJ energy (L = 0.1 mH) at TJ = 25 °C. This rating supports unclamped inductive switching in motor drives and relay drivers. The device is 100 % avalanche tested during production, and the SOA curve defines safe operating limits under transient overvoltage conditions.
What is the thermal resistance from junction to ambient for SUP85N03-04P in standard PCB mount?
For SUP85N03-04P in TO-263 (D2PAK) package mounted on a 1" square FR-4 PCB, the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (RthJA) is 40 °C/W. This value assumes standard copper pour layout; actual performance improves significantly with enhanced heatsinking via the drain-connected tab.
How does the E3 suffix affect the SUP85N03-04P specification and compliance?
The E3 suffix on SUP85N03-04P indicates lead-free (Pb-free) terminations and RoHS-compliant construction per JEDEC J-STD-020. It does not alter electrical or thermal specifications versus non-E3 versions. The device meets halogen-free requirements and supports standard reflow profiles for lead-free assembly, with no impact on maximum junction temperature or avalanche ratings.
