Active 950 V N-channel — SuperMESH5™ generation
The STP5N95K5: That voltage headroom suits offline flyback converters, PFC stages, and auxiliary power supplies where the DC bus sits at 400 V or 800 V and the switching transient peaks well above the rail.
Gate drive and switching — 12.5 nC total gate charge
Input capacitance is 220 pF at 100 V Vds, so the switching node capacitance is light; the driver sees a manageable capacitive load during the Miller plateau.
TO-220 through-hole — heatsink and rework friendly
Housed in a standard TO-220-3 package with through-hole leads, the STP5N95K5 mounts to a heatsink via the metal tab and a screw or clip. The package is hand-solderable and reworkable — no hot-air profile needed, just a soldering iron and a desoldering station for removal. The operating junction temperature range spans -55°C to 150°C, covering industrial and telecom equipment enclosures where ambient air can reach 85°C and the case runs hotter under load.
Compliance and sourcing — active, ROHS3, no NRND flags
STMicroelectronics lists the STP5N95K5 as Active with no end-of-life notice. ROHS3 compliant — no exemptions or transition risk for EU-restricted markets.
