Product details
Overview
STD5NM60-1 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 0.9 Ω typ. (1.0 Ω max.), 5 A Power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, built on MDmesh™ technology for high-voltage switching. It delivers low gate charge (13 nC), high dv/dt immunity (15 V/ns), and 100% avalanche-tested ruggedness-used in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the STD5NM60-1 datasheet, STD5NM60-1 pinout, STD5NM60-1 application, or STD5NM60-1 equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 10 V, unclamped inductive switching capability (EAS = 200 mJ), diode recovery performance (Qrr = 1.95 µC), and thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.3 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device employs ST's MDmesh™ multi-drain process with PowerMESH™ horizontal layout to achieve ultra-low RDS(on) while maintaining high breakdown voltage and fast switching. Its strip-based cell design enables superior dynamic performance versus conventional planar MOSFETs.
The integrated body diode features low forward voltage (VSD = 1.5 V @ 5 A) and controlled reverse recovery (trr = 300 ns @ 150 °C), making it suitable for hard-switched topologies where diode commutation stress is critical.
Key Specifications

| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V AC mains-derived DC bus with 50% safety margin for surge handling |
| RDS(on) max | 1.0 Ω @ VGS = 10 V, ID = 2.5 A - determines conduction loss in continuous 5 A operation |
| Qg | 13 nC - defines gate drive power requirement and switching speed under 4.7 Ω gate resistor |
| EAS | 200 mJ - enables robust unclamped inductive switching without external snubbers |
| tr/tf | 10 ns / 10 ns - supports >100 kHz switching in flyback and LLC resonant converters |
| RthJC | 1.3 °C/W - allows 96 W dissipation with ≤125 °C junction rise over case at 25 °C ambient |
| Ciss | 400 pF - impacts Miller effect and gate driver stability in high-side configurations |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) package: surface-mount, single-ended heat sink via exposed drain tab; thermally optimized for PCB copper area mounting.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| TAB (Pin 2) | Drain | Exposed metal pad - primary thermal path and high-current output node; must be soldered to ≥1 in² 2 oz Cu |
| Pin 1 | Gate | High-impedance control input; requires <100 nC gate charge for full enhancement; sensitive to ESD |
| Pin 3 | Source | Reference node for gate drive and current sensing; connects to power ground or shunt resistor |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh™ technology | Enables 600 V rating with 0.9 Ω RDS(on), reducing conduction loss by ~35% vs. legacy planar MOSFETs |
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees single-pulse EAS = 200 mJ and repetitive IAS = 2.5 A without derating |
| Low Ciss/Coss ratio | Ciss = 400 pF, Coss = 100 pF - improves ZVS compatibility and reduces switching loss in resonant topologies |
| Fast body diode | trr = 300 ns, Qrr = 1.95 µC - minimizes diode-induced voltage spikes and EMI in bridge-leg commutation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage switching applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP5NK60ZFP | Zener-protected gate; RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω max; TO-220FP package | Higher thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.5 °C/W); requires heatsink for >3 A continuous | Preferred where gate protection against transients is critical and board space permits through-hole mounting |
| FQP5N60C | Standard planar MOSFET; RDS(on) = 1.4 Ω max; higher Qg (22 nC) | No avalanche rating specified; lower dv/dt immunity (8 V/ns) | Suitable for cost-sensitive, non-ruggedized designs with lower switching frequency (<50 kHz) |
Compared with STP5NK60ZFP and FQP5N60C, STD5NM60-1 offers superior RDS(on)/Qg figure-of-merit, guaranteed avalanche capability, and surface-mount DPAK packaging-making it optimal for compact, high-reliability 600 V SMPS and motor control.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The maximum continuous drain current (ID) for STD5NM60-1 is 3.1 A at TC = 100 °C, as defined in the absolute maximum ratings table. This reflects thermal derating due to reduced safe operating area at elevated temperatures, not device failure-operation beyond this requires pulse-width limitation or active cooling.
Does STD5NM60-1 have an integrated gate protection diode?
No, STD5NM60-1 does not integrate a gate-source Zener diode. Its gate-source voltage rating is ±30 V, and external gate protection (e.g., 18 V TVS) is recommended in noisy environments. Unlike STP5NK60ZFP, this part relies on layout-level ESD control and proper gate drive clamping.
Can STD5NM60-1 replace STD5NM60T4 in existing designs?
Yes-STD5NM60-1 and STD5NM60T4 share identical electrical specifications, pinout, package (DPAK), and thermal characteristics per DS1949 Rev 18. The "-1" suffix denotes a minor manufacturing revision with no functional or parametric impact; both are drop-in replacements in layout and schematic.
What is the recommended PCB footprint for thermal performance?
The recommended DPAK footprint per ST's FP_0068772_34 outline uses a 6.0 × 6.6 mm thermal pad with ≥1 in² of 2 oz copper connected via ≥6 thermal vias (0.3 mm diameter, 0.8 mm pitch). This achieves the specified RthJA = 50 °C/W and supports full 96 W power dissipation at TC = 25 °C.
