Product details
Overview
FS50KM-06-AX#E51 from Renesas Electronics is an N-channel power MOSFET designed for high-speed switching in industrial power control circuits, featuring 60 V VDSS, 22 mΩ max rDS(ON) at 10 V gate drive, 50 A continuous drain current, integrated fast-recovery body diode (65 ns), and 2000 V isolation voltage. It targets motor drives, DC-DC converters, and solenoid/lamp control where robust thermal performance and low conduction loss are critical.
For engineers reviewing the FS50KM-06-AX#E51 datasheet, FS50KM-06-AX#E51 pinout, FS50KM-06-AX#E51 application, or FS50KM-06-AX#E51 equivalent, this page delivers verified package mapping (TO-220FN), validated terminal roles, confirmed switching timing (td(on) = 35 ns, tf = 80 ns), thermal resistance (Rth(ch–c) = 4.17 °C/W), and real-world alternative options with documented functional trade-offs.
Technical Context
This device uses a planar vertical DMOS structure optimized for low rDS(ON) and fast switching, with gate threshold voltage tightly specified (2.0–4.0 V) and forward transfer admittance of 32 S at 25 A/10 V. Its integrated body diode supports synchronous rectification and inductive load commutation without external diode addition.
The TO-220FN package provides isolated mounting via its insulated case (Viso = 2000 V AC/1 min), enabling direct heatsink attachment while maintaining galvanic separation between drain and thermal path - essential for grounded-source topologies in off-line SMPS and motor inverters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 60 V - Maximum blocking voltage before avalanche; suitable for 48 V bus systems with margin. |
| rDS(ON) (max) | 22 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 25 A - Enables <0.55 V conduction drop at rated current, minimizing I²R losses. |
| ID (cont) | 50 A at Tc = 25°C - Supports high-current loads when paired with adequate heatsinking. |
| trr | 65 ns typical - Fast body diode recovery reduces switching loss and EMI in hard-switched topologies. |
| Rth(ch–c) | 4.17 °C/W - Allows 30 W dissipation with ≤125°C channel rise above 25°C case temperature. |
| Ciss | 2300 pF - Gate input capacitance impacts driver strength requirements and turn-on speed. |
| td(off) | 95 ns - Critical for dead-time calculation in half-bridge configurations to prevent shoot-through. |
Pinout & Package
FS50KM-06-AX#E51 is housed in the TO-220FN package (Renesas code PRSS0003AB-A), featuring full electrical isolation between the drain-connected tab and all leads, enabling safe mounting to grounded heatsinks without insulating hardware.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Gate) | Control electrode | Receives 10 V logic-level gate drive; threshold range 2.0–4.0 V ensures compatibility with standard microcontroller outputs. |
| 2 (Drain) | Main current sink | Connected to internal die backside and isolated metal tab; must be electrically isolated from heatsink unless referenced to same potential. |
| 3 (Source) | Current return path | Common reference for gate drive and load return; defines local ground for driver circuitry. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated fast-recovery body diode | 65 ns reverse recovery time enables efficient inductive load switching without external diode. |
| Isolated package (Viso = 2000 V) | Allows direct mounting to grounded heatsinks in high-side or floating-source configurations without insulation pads. |
| Low gate charge (Qg ≈ 70 nC typical) | Reduces driver power consumption and enables higher-frequency operation up to ~100 kHz. |
| High avalanche energy rating | IDA = 50 A pulsed (L = 100 µH) supports robustness against inductive kickback in motor/solenoid drivers. |
| Thermal stability | rDS(ON) increases only ~1.2× from 25°C to 125°C - maintains predictable conduction loss across operating range. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar N-channel power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP55NF06L | 60 V, 55 A, 14 mΩ rDS(ON), TO-220, non-isolated | Lacks 2000 V isolation; requires insulating pad for grounded heatsink use | Preferred where lower RDS(ON) justifies added thermal interface complexity and isolation is managed externally. |
| IXTP50N06T | 60 V, 50 A, 18 mΩ rDS(ON), TO-220AB, non-isolated | No integrated fast diode; trr not specified - may require external Schottky for snubberless inductive switching | Chosen when cost sensitivity outweighs need for integrated diode, and layout permits discrete diode placement. |
Compared with STP55NF06L and IXTP50N06T, FS50KM-06-AX#E51 trades slightly higher rDS(ON) for built-in isolation and fast diode - eliminating insulator hardware and reducing BOM count in space-constrained industrial controls.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current rating for FS50KM-06-AX#E51?
The FS50KM-06-AX#E51 is rated for 50 A continuous drain current (ID) at case temperature Tc = 25°C. This rating assumes proper heatsinking and derates linearly with increasing case temperature - dropping to approximately 25 A at Tc = 100°C per the power dissipation derating curve. The device also supports 200 A pulsed drain current (IDM) for short durations.
Does FS50KM-06-AX#E51 include an integrated body diode, and what is its recovery time?
Yes, FS50KM-06-AX#E51 integrates a fast-recovery body diode with a typical reverse recovery time (trr) of 65 ns under test conditions of IS = 50 A and di/dt = –100 A/µs. This diode is optimized for inductive load commutation and reduces need for external freewheeling diodes in motor and solenoid drivers.
What is the isolation voltage rating of FS50KM-06-AX#E51, and how is it implemented?
The FS50KM-06-AX#E51 features a 2000 V AC isolation voltage (Viso) rated for 1 minute between terminals and case. This is achieved via the TO-220FN package's molded insulation layer separating the drain-connected metal tab from leadframe and leads - enabling safe direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without additional insulators.
What gate drive voltage is required for full enhancement of FS50KM-06-AX#E51?
The FS50KM-06-AX#E51 is specified for full enhancement at VGS = 10 V, delivering its rated rDS(ON) of 22 mΩ max. Its gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.0 V to 4.0 V, making it compatible with standard 5 V or 3.3 V logic-level drivers when operated in linear or partially enhanced regions - though full conduction requires 10 V.
How does the thermal resistance of FS50KM-06-AX#E51 affect heatsink selection?
With a channel-to-case thermal resistance (Rth(ch–c)) of 4.17 °C/W, FS50KM-06-AX#E51 dissipates up to 30 W at Tc = 25°C. To maintain Tch ≤ 150°C at 30 W, total system thermal resistance (case-to-ambient) must be ≤ 3.33 °C/W - guiding heatsink size and airflow requirements. Lower ambient temperatures or forced cooling significantly increase usable power headroom.
