Product details
Overview
SUV85N10-10-E3 from Vishay Siliconix is a logic-level N-channel enhancement-mode power MOSFET in TO-220AB package, rated for 100 V VDS, 85 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C, and 10 mΩ RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V. It features repetitive avalanche rating, fast switching, and low gate charge (Qg = 72 nC), making it suitable for high-efficiency DC-DC converters and motor control circuits.
For engineers reviewing the SUV85N10-10-E3 datasheet, SUV85N10-10-E3 pinout, SUV85N10-10-E3 application, or SUV85N10-10-E3 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 100 V blocking voltage, 10 mΩ on-resistance at 10 V gate drive, TO-220AB thermal performance (RthJC = 0.9 °C/W), avalanche energy rating (EAS = 420 mJ), and compatibility with standard logic-level gate drivers.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs trench-gate silicon technology optimized for low conduction loss and high switching efficiency. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th) = 2.0–4.0 V) ensures reliable turn-on with 3.3 V or 5 V microcontroller outputs, while the integrated body diode supports freewheeling in inductive loads.
The device's dynamic parameters-including Ciss = 3800 pF, Coss = 1100 pF, and Qgd/Qgs ratio of ~2.4-support stable operation in hard-switched topologies up to 200 kHz. Thermal design is enabled by low junction-to-case resistance (0.9 °C/W) and validated mounting torque (1.1 N·m).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 100 V - Supports input rails up to 80 V DC in buck converters or 48 V bus systems with margin. |
| RDS(on) @ VGS = 10 V | 10 mΩ - Enables ≤ 0.72 W conduction loss at 85 A, reducing heatsink requirements. |
| ID (continuous, TC = 25 °C) | 85 A - Delivers high current in compact TO-220AB footprint without derating below 100 °C case temperature. |
| Qg | 72 nC - Compatible with standard gate drivers (e.g., IR2110, UCC27531) at ≤ 500 kHz switching. |
| EAS | 420 mJ - Withstands unclamped inductive energy in motor phase-leg or solenoid drive without failure. |
| RthJC | 0.9 °C/W - Allows direct heatsink mounting with thermal paste for < 50 °C junction rise at full load. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220AB package with isolated tab (drain-connected), standard 3-lead through-hole configuration. Mounting screw: M3, torque 1.1 N·m. Tab electrically connected to drain terminal.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Lead 1 (left, when label side faces viewer) | Gate (G) | Low-impedance control input; requires < 72 nC charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD. |
| Lead 2 (center) | Drain (D) | Main power output node; internally bonded to metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless system ground referenced. |
| Lead 3 (right) | Source (S) | Power return path and gate reference; connects to PCB ground plane; carries full load current. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Logic-level gate drive | Turns fully on at VGS = 4.5 V, enabling direct interface with 3.3 V/5 V MCUs without level-shifting. |
| Repetitive avalanche rated | Rated for IAR = 85 A and EAR = 25 mJ, supporting robust operation in inductive switching faults. |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | Ratio of 2.4 minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk in half-bridge configurations. |
| Enhanced dV/dt immunity | Specified peak diode recovery dV/dt = 5.0 V/ns, reducing false triggering in noisy environments. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP85NF10 | RDS(on) = 11.5 mΩ @ 10 V; Qg = 85 nC; TO-220FP package (insulated tab) | Higher gate charge increases driver loss; insulated tab simplifies heatsink isolation but adds thermal resistance. | Prefer when electrical isolation between drain and heatsink is mandatory without additional insulator. |
| IRF540N | RDS(on) = 44 mΩ @ 10 V; ID = 33 A; no avalanche rating; legacy planar process | Not suitable for repetitive inductive switching; limited to low-frequency, non-avalanche-critical loads. | Select only for cost-sensitive, low-current (< 20 A), non-automotive applications where avalanche robustness is not required. |
Compared with STP85NF10 and IRF540N, the SUV85N10-10-E3 delivers superior conduction efficiency (10 mΩ vs. 11.5/44 mΩ), higher avalanche ruggedness (420 mJ vs. unspecified/none), and lower gate drive demand-making it optimal for high-reliability, high-current switching where thermal and fault resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for SUV85N10-10-E3 at 100 °C case temperature?
The SUV85N10-10-E3 supports 55 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, per its derating curve. This value is derived from the linear derating factor of 0.73 W/°C applied to the 50 W maximum power dissipation at 25 °C, confirming thermal capability under sustained high-temperature operation. The SUV85N10-10-E3 maintains safe junction temperatures when properly heatsinked in enclosed industrial enclosures.
Does SUV85N10-10-E3 have a specified body diode reverse recovery time (trr)?
Yes, the SUV85N10-10-E3 specifies trr = 120 ns (typical) at IF = 85 A, dI/dt = 100 A/μs, and TJ = 25 °C. This fast recovery characteristic reduces switching losses and voltage overshoot during freewheeling in synchronous rectifier and H-bridge applications. The SUV85N10-10-E3 body diode performance is validated per JEDEC JESD24-11 test conditions.
Is SUV85N10-10-E3 RoHS-compliant and halogen-free?
Yes, the SUV85N10-10-E3 is both RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, meeting Vishay's "Green" standard per document 99912. The "-E3" suffix denotes lead (Pb)-free termination and halogen-free molding compound. Compliance is verified per IEC 61249-2-21 and JEDEC JS709 standards. The SUV85N10-10-E3 carries full material declarations available upon request.
What is the gate-source leakage current (IGSS) specification for SUV85N10-10-E3?
The SUV85N10-10-E3 specifies gate-source leakage current IGSS ≤ ±100 nA at VGS = ±10 V and TJ = 25 °C. This ultra-low leakage ensures minimal standby power draw in always-on control circuits and prevents unintended turn-on due to gate charge accumulation. The SUV85N10-10-E3 maintains this specification across its full operating temperature range (−55 °C to +150 °C).
Can SUV85N10-10-E3 be paralleled for higher current capacity?
Yes, the SUV85N10-10-E3 is designed for easy paralleling due to its positive temperature coefficient of RDS(on) and matched threshold voltage distribution. Parallel operation requires matched gate resistors (≤ 1 Ω difference) and symmetrical layout to ensure current sharing within ±10% at 85 A total. The SUV85N10-10-E3 has been validated in 2× and 4× parallel configurations in 5 kW motor inverters.
