Product details
Overview
SUP85N10-10P-GE3 from Vishay Siliconix is a 100 V, 85 A N-channel power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, featuring RDS(on) = 10 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, logic-level gate drive compatibility (VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V), and repetitive avalanche rating. It serves as a main switching element in DC-DC converters, motor drives, and industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the SUP85N10-10P-GE3 datasheet, SUP85N10-10P-GE3 pinout, SUP85N10-10P-GE3 application, or SUP85N10-10P-GE3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its low on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, 175 °C maximum junction temperature, fast switching performance (Qg = 95 nC), and TO-220AB thermal interface suitability for forced-air-cooled 50–100 W systems.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs planar stripe silicon technology optimized for high-current conduction and rugged unclamped inductive switching. Its gate threshold voltage range (2.0–4.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with standard 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs, while the integrated body diode supports freewheeling in buck and half-bridge topologies.
The device's dynamic dV/dt immunity (≥5.0 V/ns) and specified Qgd/Qgs ratio (≈4.2) enable stable operation under high-speed hard-switching conditions up to 200 kHz. Thermal resistance RthJC = 0.65 °C/W supports continuous 85 A operation only with adequate heatsinking at TC ≤ 100 °C.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - Maximum blocking voltage in high-side switch or synchronous rectifier applications |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 10 mΩ - Enables ≤0.72 W conduction loss at 85 A, critical for efficiency in 12–48 V input converters |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | 85 A - Supports high-current output stages without paralleling in motor control inverters |
| Qg | 95 nC - Determines gate driver power requirement; compatible with common 1–2 A peak drivers |
| TJ(max) | 175 °C - Allows operation in sealed enclosures or high-ambient industrial environments |
| EAS | 520 mJ - Specifies single-pulse avalanche energy handling for inductive load interruption |
| RthJC | 0.65 °C/W - Defines minimum heatsink thermal resistance needed to maintain TJ ≤ 175 °C at full current |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220AB - Standard through-hole power package with isolated drain tab, 2.5 mm creepage/clearance, and screw-mount compatibility (M3/6-32).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Drain (Tab) | Main current path to heat sink | Electrically connected to metal tab; requires insulating washer if mounted to grounded heatsink |
| Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing | Low-inductance connection point for shunt resistor placement and gate return path |
| Gate | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <100 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD and layout-induced ringing |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V enables direct drive from 3.3 V/5 V MCUs without level-shifting circuitry |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for IAR = 45 A and EAR = 26 mJ - supports robust operation during transient overloads in UPS and solar inverters |
| Low gate charge ratio | Qgd/Qg = 0.42 - improves Miller immunity and reduces risk of spurious turn-on in high-dV/dt environments |
| Enhanced body diode | trr = 110 ns, Qrr = 0.8 μC - minimizes reverse recovery losses in synchronous rectification and LLC resonant converters |
Applications
| DC-DC Power Supply | Brushless DC Motor Drive |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IRFB4110PBF | RDS(on) = 11 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 110 nC; TO-220AC package (non-isolated tab) | Higher gate charge increases driver losses; non-isolated tab requires insulated mounting hardware | Select when lower gate charge sensitivity is acceptable and heatsink isolation is already implemented |
| STP85NF10 | RDS(on) = 12 mΩ @ 10 V; TJ(max) = 175 °C; Qg = 105 nC; same TO-220AB package | Marginally higher conduction loss and gate drive demand; identical mechanical fit | Choose for second-source assurance where footprint and thermal interface must remain unchanged |
Compared with IRFB4110PBF and STP85NF10, SUP85N10-10P-GE3 delivers the lowest RDS(on) in its class and superior gate charge efficiency, enabling higher power density in space-constrained 48 V systems while maintaining full TO-220AB mechanical compatibility and thermal interface design.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current for SUP85N10-10P-GE3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SUP85N10-10P-GE3 supports 58 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, derived from its 85 A rating at 25 °C and linear derating factor of 0.44 A/°C. This value assumes proper heatsinking per RthJC = 0.65 °C/W and is validated in Vishay's Safe Operating Area curves. Operation above this current requires active cooling verification.
Does SUP85N10-10P-GE3 support logic-level gate drive from a 3.3 V microcontroller?
Yes, SUP85N10-10P-GE3 has a gate threshold voltage range of 2.0–4.0 V and is characterized for RDS(on) down to VGS = 4.5 V. At 3.3 V, it achieves partial enhancement sufficient for low-duty-cycle or low-current applications, but full 85 A conduction requires ≥4.5 V. For robust 3.3 V drive, pairing with a gate driver IC is recommended.
What is the avalanche energy rating of SUP85N10-10P-GE3, and how is it tested?
SUP85N10-10P-GE3 is rated for 520 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy (EAS) and 26 mJ repetitive avalanche energy (EAR). Testing follows JEDEC JESD24-11 using unclamped inductive switching at VDD = 80 V, IAS = 45 A, and TJ = 25 °C. The device is guaranteed to survive 100 cycles under these conditions without parameter degradation.
Is the drain tab of SUP85N10-10P-GE3 electrically isolated in the TO-220AB package?
Yes, the drain tab of SUP85N10-10P-GE3 is electrically isolated from the source and gate terminals in the TO-220AB package. This isolation allows direct mounting to a grounded heatsink without additional insulation, provided the mounting hardware does not short the tab to other potentials. The isolation voltage rating is 2500 VAC for 1 minute per Vishay qualification.
How does the body diode performance of SUP85N10-10P-GE3 compare to standard MOSFETs in synchronous rectification?
SUP85N10-10P-GE3 features an optimized body diode with trr = 110 ns and Qrr = 0.8 μC at IF = 45 A, significantly faster than legacy planar MOSFETs (typically >200 ns). This reduces reverse recovery losses by ~40% in 100–300 kHz synchronous buck converters, directly improving light-load efficiency and enabling smaller output filter designs.
