650 V N-channel MOSFET for offline power conversion
The STMicroelectronics STFI10N65K3 is a 650 V N-channel power MOSFET from the SuperMESH3™ series, built with a metal-oxide semiconductor structure. The 42 nC typical gate charge keeps switching losses manageable in hard-switched topologies like flyback and PFC stages.
Obsolete — plan for a replacement
For new designs or production fills, buyers should evaluate pin-compatible alternatives within the SuperMESH3 family or other 650 V N-channel MOSFETs in the I2PAKFP footprint.
The 650 V drain-source voltage rating provides adequate margin for universal-input offline converters (up to 400 V DC bus) and allows derating for transient spikes common in flyback and LLC topologies. The 1 Ohm Rds(on) at 10 V gate drive sets conduction losses at roughly 10 W at 3.6 A, so a heatsink is mandatory. The 42 nC gate charge is moderate for a 650 V device, meaning the gate driver sees a reasonable switching loss at frequencies up to 100 kHz.
