STP12N120K5

STMicroelectronics · MOSFETs · TO-220

STP12N120K5 from STMicroelectronics, in a TO-220. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 G input Gate terminal; gate-source voltage is rated at ±30 V per the absolute maximum ratings.
2 D passive Drain terminal; rated 1200 V drain-source breakdown voltage with 12 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C.
3 S passive Source terminal; the reference for the ±30 V gate-source voltage rating.
