Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum drain-source voltage of the STF12N65M5?
The STF12N65M5 has a maximum drain-source breakdown voltage (VDSS) of 650 V, making it suitable for high-voltage power conversion applications such as offline SMPS and PFC stages operating from universal AC mains input.
What is the RDS(on) of the STF12N65M5 and why does it matter?
The STF12N65M5 has a typical RDS(on) of 390 mΩ and a maximum RDS(on) of 430 mΩ. Lower on-resistance directly reduces conduction power losses, improving efficiency in switching power supplies and reducing heat dissipation requirements.
What packages are available for the STF12N65M5?
The STF12N65M5 is available in TO-220FP (fully isolated package) and TO-220 packages. The TO-220FP variant features an isolated case connection, simplifying PCB layout and thermal management by eliminating the need for external insulating hardware.
What is the avalanche energy rating of the STF12N65M5?
The STF12N65M5 has an avalanche energy rating (EAS) of 150 mJ. This robust avalanche capability provides protection against voltage spikes and ensures reliable operation in demanding inductive switching environments.
Can the STF12N65M5 be used in PFC converter designs?
Yes, the STF12N65M5 is well-suited for Power Factor Correction (PFC) boost converter designs. Its 650 V rating comfortably handles the boosted DC bus voltage, while MDmesh M5 technology ensures low switching losses at typical PFC operating frequencies of 65–130 kHz.
