Product details

40 V, 120 A N-channel — obsolete but still in demand

Obsolete — plan for a replacement

STMicroelectronics lists the STP120NF04 as Obsolete. This means the manufacturer no longer produces the part, and no last-time-buy window remains open.

The 120 A continuous drain rating is a package-limited figure at 25°C case temperature; real-world derating applies as junction temperature rises. The 40 V Vdss gives about 20% headroom on a 24 V nominal rail, but on a 36 V bus the margin is tight — verify avalanche ruggedness if inductive loads are present. Gate charge of 150 nC at 10 V means the driver must source enough peak current to switch cleanly at the target frequency.

Frequently asked questions

Is STP120NF04 obsolete?

Yes, STMicroelectronics lists the STP120NF04 as Obsolete. No further production is planned. The part is available only through independent surplus and broker channels.

What is the replacement for STP120NF04?

STMicroelectronics does not list a direct official replacement for the STP120NF04. For new designs, select a current-production N-channel MOSFET in a TO-220 package with a 40 V or higher Vdss, continuous drain current of 120 A or higher, and Rds(on) at or below 5 mOhm at 10 V gate drive. Many modern STripFET™ F7 or similar series parts offer improved switching performance.
