Active production, 100 V N-channel in TO-220AB
The TO-220AB through-hole package suits bolted-down heatsink mounting in power supplies, DC-DC converters, and inverter legs where board-level thermal management is the primary constraint.
Gate charge and switching budget
Total gate charge is 255 nC at 10 V, with an input capacitance of 9500 pF at 50 V drain bias. For a 100 kHz hard-switched application, the average gate-drive current required is 25.5 mA — within the capability of a standard totem-pole driver, but the peak current during the Miller plateau demands a driver with at least 2 A source/sink capability to keep switching losses under control. The ±20 V maximum gate-source rating provides margin for ringing on long gate traces in high-current layouts.
Thermal and environmental rating
Maximum power dissipation is 441 W at case temperature 25 °C, derated linearly above that point.
