Product details
Overview
STF24N60DM2 from STMicroelectronics is a high-voltage N-channel MDmesh DM2 Power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, rated 600 V VDS, 175 mΩ typ. RDS(on), and 18 A continuous drain current at TC = 25 °C. It integrates a fast-recovery body diode with Qrr = 956 nC and trr = 155 ns, enabling high-efficiency ZVS phase-shift and bridge-topology converters.
For engineers reviewing the STF24N60DM2 datasheet, STF24N60DM2 pinout, STF24N60DM2 application, or STF24N60DM2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 40 V/ns diode dv/dt ruggedness, 50 V/ns MOSFET dv/dt capability, 100% avalanche-tested reliability (EAS = 180 mJ), low 29 nC total gate charge, and Zener-protected gate structure for robust drive interface design.
Technical Context
This device belongs to ST's MDmesh DM2 series, engineered specifically for high-frequency, high-efficiency hard-switching and resonant topologies. Its optimized cell structure delivers ultra-low Qrr/trr while maintaining low RDS(on) - critical for minimizing switching losses in PFC stages and LLC half-bridges.
The TO-220FP package provides insulated mounting (VISO = 2.5 kV RMS) and 4.2 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance, supporting thermally demanding industrial power supplies. The Zener-protected gate ensures immunity to transient overvoltage during gate drive transients without external clamping.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V DC bus designs with ≥50% voltage margin for surge and ringing |
| RDS(on) max | 200 mΩ - enables low conduction loss at 18 A, reducing I²R heating in continuous operation |
| Qg | 29 nC - allows fast, low-power gate driving with standard 1-A drivers at >100 kHz switching |
| trr | 155 ns - minimizes commutation loss and EMI in synchronous rectification and bridge legs |
| EAS | 180 mJ - guarantees unclamped inductive switching survivability in real-world fault conditions |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - prevents spurious turn-on during high-slew-rate voltage transients in high-side configurations |
| VISO | 2.5 kV RMS - permits direct heatsink mounting without isolation hardware in AC/DC front-ends |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-220FP type B - insulated plastic package with integral heat sink tab, 4.2 °C/W RthJC, suitable for forced-air or chassis-mounted thermal management.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Pin 2) | Drain | Main high-voltage power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for thermal path and electrical reference |
| G (Pin 1) | Gate | Control input with ±25 V rating and integrated Zener protection; requires <7 Ω gate resistor for optimal dv/dt immunity |
| S (Pin 3) | Source | Power return node; referenced to gate for threshold control; forms common node with body diode cathode |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Fast-recovery body diode | Qrr = 956 nC, trr = 155 ns - reduces reverse recovery loss by >60% vs standard MOSFETs in bridge-leg freewheeling |
| Extremely low gate charge | Qg = 29 nC, Qgd/Qgs = 2.0 - enables clean Miller plateau transition and predictable turn-off timing |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated 25 V bidirectional clamp - eliminates need for external gate Zener in noisy industrial environments |
| 100% avalanche tested | EAS = 180 mJ at TJ = 25 °C - ensures single-pulse ruggedness across full temperature range without derating |
| High dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns MOSFET, 40 V/ns diode - suppresses false triggering in high-side half-bridge and phase-shifted full-bridge layouts |
Applications
| Industrial AC/DC Power Supplies | Server & Telecom Rectifiers |

| Phase-Shifted Full-Bridge Converters | Motor Drive Inverter Stages |
|

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP60R190C7 | RDS(on) = 190 mΩ, Qrr = 1.1 µC, no integrated gate Zener | Higher Qrr increases bridge-leg losses; requires external gate protection | Preferable only when lower RDS(on) outweighs diode recovery penalty and Zener omission is acceptable |
| IXFH32N60X3 | RDS(on) = 180 mΩ, trr = 190 ns, TO-247 package, no insulation | Larger footprint and no VISO - mandates isolated mounting hardware and increases layout complexity | Choose only if higher current rating (32 A) and thermal headroom justify added mechanical and safety overhead |
Compared with IPP60R190C7 and IXFH32N60X3, STF24N60DM2 uniquely balances low Qrr, integrated gate protection, and insulated packaging - making it optimal for space-constrained, high-reliability industrial SMPS where board-level isolation and diode softness are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for STF24N60DM2 in a 200 kHz ZVS converter?
The datasheet specifies intrinsic gate resistance Rg = 7 Ω and recommends limiting gate loop inductance and using ≤10 Ω external gate resistor to maintain dv/dt immunity. At 200 kHz, a 6.8 Ω resistor ensures controlled turn-on/turn-off while preserving 50 V/ns ruggedness and avoiding Miller-induced oscillation in high-side operation.
Can STF24N60DM2 replace STW20NK60Z in an existing PFC design?
No - STW20NK60Z is a SuperFET II device with different RDS(on) (190 mΩ), Qrr (1.3 µC), and no Zener gate protection. STF24N60DM2 has lower Qrr and integrated clamping but requires gate drive redesign due to higher Qg (29 nC vs 22 nC) and stricter dv/dt layout rules.
Is the TO-220FP package of STF24N60DM2 compatible with standard TO-220 heatsinks?
Yes - the TO-220FP type B outline matches standard TO-220 mechanical dimensions (L3 = 28.6–30.6 mm, L4 = 9.8–10.6 mm), and the insulated tab allows direct mounting to grounded heatsinks without mica washers. Thermal resistance remains 4.2 °C/W junction-to-case under proper mounting torque (0.5–0.7 N·m).
Does STF24N60DM2 support paralleling for higher current applications?
Yes - its positive temperature coefficient for RDS(on) (1.9× increase from –50 °C to 150 °C per Figure 10) enables stable current sharing. However, matched gate drive impedance (<±0.5 Ω), symmetrical PCB layout, and individual source resistors (0.1 Ω) are required to balance dynamic current distribution during switching transitions.
