500 V Super Junction MOSFET in TO-220-3
The through-hole TO-220-3 package (PG-TO220-3-1) suits point-of-load power stages, PFC boost stages, and flyback converters where the designer wants a low-inductance source tab and a standard three-pin layout for heatsink mounting.
280 mOhm on-resistance and 32.6 nC gate charge
Maximum on-resistance is 280 mOhm at 4.2 A drain current with 13 V gate drive — the 13 V drive voltage is the recommended bias for minimum Rds(on) and matches the output of common PWM controller gate drivers. Total gate charge is 32.6 nC at 10 V, which means a 100 kHz hard-switched stage draws roughly 3.3 mA from the gate driver — well within the capability of a standard 1 A totem-pole driver, and the 773 pF input capacitance at 100 V Vds keeps the Miller plateau manageable for the feedback compensation loop.
Junction temperature range and thermal budget
Maximum power dissipation is 92 W at case temperature Tc — the TO-220 tab soldered to a copper island or bolted to a heatsink with thermal compound keeps the junction below 150°C at the 13 A continuous rating.
