Product details
Overview
STF20N60M2-EP from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 13 A Power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, fabricated with MDmesh™ M2 Enhanced Performance (EP) technology. It delivers 0.230 Ω typ. RDS(on), 22 nC total gate charge, and 7.2 µJ turn-off energy at 2 A - optimized for >150 kHz high-frequency switching in SMPS and resonant converters.
For engineers reviewing the STF20N60M2-EP datasheet, STF20N60M2-EP pinout, STF20N60M2-EP application, or STF20N60M2-EP equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (138 mJ EAS), Zener-protected gate, low Coss profile (50 pF), and 100% UIS tested reliability under unclamped inductive loads.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a strip-based vertical structure to minimize RDS(on) while maintaining fast switching via reduced Qgd (10.5 nC) and low Coss (50 pF). Its gate threshold voltage (3.25–4.75 V) ensures robust noise immunity in high-dV/dt environments up to 50 V/ns.
The integrated body diode exhibits 230 ns reverse recovery time (Tj = 25 °C) and 2.3 µC Qrr, enabling efficient hard-switched and quasi-resonant topologies without external snubbers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with 50% voltage margin for transient spikes |
| RDS(on) max | 0.278 Ω - limits conduction loss to ≤1.2 W at 13 A continuous drain current |
| Qg | 22 nC - enables fast 10.5 ns turn-on delay with low gate drive power demand |
| Eoff | 7.2 µJ @ 2 A - reduces switching loss by >40% vs legacy 600 V MOSFETs in 150–500 kHz range |
| Tj max | 150 °C - allows operation in compact heatsinked enclosures with Rthj-case = 5 °C/W |
| VISO | 2.5 kV RMS - provides reinforced insulation between leads and heatsink for safety-critical AC/DC systems |
Pinout & Package
TO-220FP package: insulated flange, single in-line 3-pin configuration with creepage ≥3 mm and clearance ≥2.5 mm per IEC 60950-1. Mounting hole Ø3.0–3.2 mm centered on flange.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Pin 2) | Drain | High-side switching node; electrically connected to insulated flange for direct heatsink mounting |
| G (Pin 1) | Gate | Control input with ±25 V rating; Zener-protected against overvoltage transients |
| S (Pin 3) | Source | Power return path; referenced to PCB ground plane; carries full load current and diode recovery charge |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh™ M2 EP technology | Combines trench-gate geometry with optimized drift region for simultaneous low RDS(on) and low Coss |
| 100% unclamped inductive switching (UIS) tested | Guarantees single-pulse avalanche energy handling up to 138 mJ at Tj = 25 °C |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated 25 V clamp prevents gate oxide damage during layout-induced ringing or ESD events |
| Low turn-off switching losses | Eoff = 7.2 µJ @ 2 A enables >95% efficiency in LLC resonant converters operating at 300 kHz |
| Optimized COSS profile | Coss = 50 pF with minimal voltage dependence - reduces dead-time losses and improves ZVS initiation |
Applications
| Server PSU | Industrial SMPS |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: 3 kW 48 V output server power supply using phase-shifted full-bridge topology. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side primary switch operating at 250 kHz with synchronous rectification control. Use Value: Low Qgd/Qg ratio (0.48) minimizes Miller-induced shoot-through risk during high dv/dt transitions. |
Use Scenario: 1.5 kW industrial AC/DC front-end with active PFC and LLC resonant secondary. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: PFC boost switch handling 13 A peak current at 100–150 kHz switching frequency. Use Value: 0.230 Ω typ. RDS(on) reduces conduction loss by 1.8 W vs comparable 600 V devices, lowering thermal stress on heatsink. |
| EV Onboard Charger | Telecom Rectifier |
|
Use Scenario: Bidirectional OBC stage converting 400 V battery to 400 V AC grid interface. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Half-bridge leg switch in dual-active-bridge (DAB) topology with soft-switching requirements. Use Value: 230 ns trr and 2.3 µC Qrr enable zero-current switching (ZCS) turn-on with <5% circulating loss penalty. |
Use Scenario: 48 V telecom rectifier module operating in harsh ambient (70 °C baseplate). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switch in forward converter with 120 kHz fixed-frequency operation. Use Value: Rthj-case = 5 °C/W allows direct mounting to aluminum chassis without thermal interface pads, simplifying mechanical design. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STF20N60M2 | No "-EP" suffix; identical die but non-insulated TO-220 package (no VISO rating) | Requires isolated mounting hardware for safety-critical isolation; unsuitable where 2.5 kV RMS insulation is mandated | Select when cost-sensitive and isolation is handled externally via insulating pads or bushings |
| IPP60R099C7 | Infineon CoolMOS™ C7; 600 V, 0.099 Ω, 22 A; higher ID but larger Qg (42 nC) | Better conduction loss at high current, but higher gate drive loss and slower switching above 200 kHz | Prefer for <100 kHz PFC stages needing lower RDS(on); avoid in >250 kHz resonant converters due to Qg penalty |
Compared with STF20N60M2-EP, STF20N60M2 lacks reinforced insulation and requires external isolation, while IPP60R099C7 trades higher gate charge and slower switching for lower conduction loss - making STF20N60M2-EP optimal for compact, high-frequency, safety-certified designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STF20N60M2-EP supports 8 A continuous drain current at TC = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS11486 Rev 4. This derating reflects thermal limitations of the TO-220FP package's 5 °C/W junction-to-case resistance and safe operating area constraints at elevated temperatures.
Does this MOSFET include integrated gate protection?
Yes - the device integrates a Zener diode between gate and source rated for ±25 V, providing inherent protection against gate oxide breakdown during voltage transients or layout-induced ringing, as confirmed in the "Features" section and absolute maximum ratings table.
Can STF20N60M2-EP replace STF20N60M2 in existing designs?
No direct replacement: STF20N60M2 uses standard TO-220 (non-insulated), while STF20N60M2-EP uses TO-220FP with 2.5 kV RMS insulation. Substitution requires mechanical redesign to eliminate external isolation and verify creepage/clearance compliance per IEC 62368-1.
What is the typical reverse recovery charge of the body diode?
The typical reverse recovery charge (Qrr) is 2.3 µC at Tj = 25 °C, measured with ISD = 13 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs, and VDD = 60 V, per Table 8 in DS11486 Rev 4. At 150 °C, Qrr increases to 2.9 µC due to carrier lifetime effects.
