Product details
Overview
STB30NM50N from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 500 V, 27 A, 0.090 Ω RDS(on) MDmesh™ II Power MOSFET in D²PAK package, designed for high-efficiency switching converters operating at high voltage and moderate current. It features 100% avalanche tested ruggedness, low gate charge (94 nC), and low input capacitance (2740 pF), enabling fast switching in SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the STB30NM50N datasheet, STB30NM50N pinout, STB30NM50N application, or STB30NM50N equivalent, key selection criteria include its 500 V VDSS, 0.090 Ω RDS(on) at VGS = 10 V, 94 nC total gate charge, 150 °C max junction temperature, and D²PAK thermal resistance of 0.66 °C/W (j-case).
Technical Context
This device implements ST's second-generation MDmesh™ vertical superjunction architecture with strip layout, delivering ultra-low on-resistance and gate charge simultaneously. Its optimized cell structure reduces both conduction and switching losses, making it suitable for hard-switched topologies up to several hundred kHz.
The integrated body diode exhibits 480 ns reverse recovery time (Tj = 25 °C) and 8 µC Qrr, supporting moderate-frequency synchronous rectification and flyback snubberless operation. Avalanche capability is rated at 12 A repetitive IAR and 900 mJ single-pulse EAS.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 500 V - supports DC bus voltages up to 400 V nominal with 25% margin in offline SMPS |
| RDS(on) max | 0.115 Ω - ensures <1.5 W conduction loss at 27 A continuous drain current |
| ID (TC = 25 °C) | 27 A - enables high-power density designs without forced air cooling |
| Qg | 94 nC - allows efficient gate drive with standard 1–2 A peak drivers at 100–300 kHz |
| Ciss | 2740 pF - contributes to predictable Miller plateau timing and EMI control |
| Tj max | 150 °C - permits operation in sealed enclosures with ambient up to 85 °C under derated load |
| Rthj-case | 0.66 °C/W - enables >150 W power dissipation with a modest heatsink (e.g., 1.5 K/W) |
Pinout & Package
D²PAK (TO-263) package: surface-mount, 3-pin, exposed drain pad for thermal and electrical connection. Standard JEDEC MO-211AC outline with 2.54 mm lead pitch and 10.0 × 15.85 mm footprint.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Power return path for load current | Low-inductance source connection; ties directly to PCB ground plane or source trace |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring <100 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD and ringing |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Main high-voltage power terminal | Internally connected to exposed copper pad - must be soldered to large copper area for thermal and current handling |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees robustness against unclamped inductive switching events up to 12 A/900 mJ |
| Low gate charge (94 nC) | Reduces driver power loss and enables higher frequency operation without excessive gate drive loss |
| Low RDS(on) / Qg ratio | Optimizes trade-off between conduction and switching losses in hard-switched converters |
| MDmesh™ II superjunction structure | Delivers 0.090 Ω RDS(on) at 500 V - ~30% lower than first-gen superjunction MOSFETs |
| ECOPACK® RoHS-compliant packaging | Lead-free second-level interconnect with JEDEC JESD97 marking for environmental compliance |
Applications
| Server PSU Primary Switch | Industrial PFC Boost Stage |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: High-density 1 kW+ server power supply operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) with 380–400 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching transistor in LLC resonant half-bridge primary side, switching at 200–300 kHz. Use Value: 0.090 Ω RDS(on) minimizes conduction loss at full load; 94 nC Qg enables clean turn-on with minimal gate drive loss. | Use Scenario: Active boost PFC front-end for factory automation drives accepting universal AC input (85–265 VAC). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Fast-switching boost switch operating in critical conduction mode (CrM) or transition mode (TM) at 30–80 kHz. Use Value: Low Ciss (2740 pF) and fast trr (480 ns) reduce switching loss and improve light-load efficiency. |
| Solar Microinverter DC-DC Stage | EV Onboard Charger HV Isolation Stage |
Use Scenario: Interleaved DC-DC stage stepping up PV panel output (30–60 V) to 350–400 V DC link for H-bridge inversion.

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switch in asymmetric half-bridge or active clamp forward topology. Use Value: 500 V VDSS provides margin over 400 V nominal battery with transients; avalanche rating protects against transformer leakage energy spikes. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage power switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP30NM50N | Same die, TO-220 package; Rthj-case = 3.1 °C/W vs. 0.66 °C/W | Requires larger heatsink; unsuitable for high-power density SMT layouts | Select when through-hole assembly, manual prototyping, or lower-volume production is preferred |
| IPP60R099C6 | 600 V, 0.099 Ω, 27 A; Infineon CoolMOS™ C6; Qg = 85 nC, Ciss = 2250 pF | Slightly lower gate charge but higher VDSS; different gate threshold (2.5–3.5 V vs. 2–4 V) | Select when tighter VGS(th) distribution or lower EMI is prioritized over ST's avalanche test guarantee |
Compared with STP30NM50N and IPP60R099C6, STB30NM50N offers superior thermal performance in SMT form factor and factory-verified avalanche ruggedness - critical for reliability in unregulated industrial environments where transient overloads occur.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STB30NM50N supports 17 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 2 of the datasheet. This derating reflects thermal limits of the D²PAK package and ensures safe operation within the 150 °C maximum junction temperature under sustained load conditions with appropriate heatsinking.
Does STB30NM50N have an integrated gate resistor?
No, STB30NM50N does not include an integrated gate resistor. The gate input resistance is measured at 2.7 Ω (at 1 MHz, open-drain configuration), which is the intrinsic channel resistance - external gate resistors (typically 5–22 Ω) must be used to control switching speed, suppress ringing, and limit peak gate current during turn-on/turn-off.
Can STB30NM50N replace STP30NM50N in an existing TO-220 design?
Direct replacement is not mechanically feasible due to package differences: STB30NM50N uses surface-mount D²PAK, while STP30NM50N is through-hole TO-220. Electrical parameters match closely, but PCB layout, thermal interface, and assembly process must be redesigned to accommodate the D²PAK footprint and exposed drain pad soldering requirements.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) of the body diode at 150 °C?
At Tj = 150 °C, the body diode's reverse recovery charge is 10 µC, per Table 8 in the datasheet. This value is 25% higher than the 8 µC measured at 25 °C, reflecting increased minority carrier lifetime at elevated temperature - a critical parameter for designing snubber networks and estimating commutation losses in bridge configurations.
