STP16CPP05
STP16CPP05 is a high-performance power MOSFET manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for efficient switching applications in modern power management systems. It features a low on-resistance of 5 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, enabling minimal conduction losses and high energy efficiency. The device supports a maximum drain current of 16 A and operates with a continuous drain-source voltage rating of up to 50 V, making it suitable for high-current, medium-voltage applications.
This MOSFET is constructed using advanced trench technology, which enhances thermal performance and reduces switching losses. Its robust design ensures reliable operation under harsh environmental conditions, including wide temperature ranges from -55°C to +150°C junction temperature. The STP16CPP05 also exhibits excellent gate charge characteristics—typically 47 nC at VGS = 10 V—which allows for fast switching speeds and reduced switching losses in high-frequency power converters.
The device includes an integrated body diode that provides inherent freewheeling capability, simplifying circuit design in buck converters, motor drives, and DC-DC power supplies. Additionally, the STP16CPP05 offers superior avalanche ruggedness, allowing safe operation during transient overvoltage events, such as those caused by inductive load switching or lightning surges.
It is commonly used in automotive electronics, industrial power supplies, consumer appliances, and battery-powered devices where compact size, high efficiency, and reliability are critical. The TO-220 package ensures easy mounting and effective heat dissipation, while the lead-free construction complies with RoHS standards for environmentally responsible manufacturing.
With its optimized electrical parameters and proven reliability, the STP16CPP05 serves as an ideal solution for power conversion stages requiring high current handling, low power loss, and robust performance across diverse operating conditions.
