Product details
Overview
STF28N60M2 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 22 A MDmesh M2 Power MOSFET in TO-220FP package, featuring 135 mΩ typical RDS(on), 36 nC total gate charge, and 100% avalanche tested ruggedness. It delivers low conduction loss and fast switching for high-efficiency hard-switched PFC and SMPS in industrial power supplies.
For engineers reviewing the STF28N60M2 datasheet, STF28N60M2 pinout, STF28N60M2 application, or STF28N60M2 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 50 V/ns MOSFET dv/dt ruggedness, 350 mJ single-pulse avalanche energy, Zener-protected gate, and optimized Coss profile for reduced switching loss in continuous conduction mode converters.
Technical Context
This device employs ST's MDmesh M2 strip layout and enhanced vertical structure to achieve low RDS(on) while maintaining high voltage blocking (600 V) and robust unclamped inductive switching capability. Its 70 pF Coss and 2 pF Crss enable precise control of turn-off behavior and reduced EMI generation.
The integrated body diode exhibits 350 ns reverse recovery time at 22 A and 100 A/µs di/dt, with 4.7 µC Qrr at 25 °C - critical for minimizing commutation losses in bridge-leg configurations. The 4.17 °C/W RthJC supports thermal management in compact heatsink-mounted designs.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - Enables use in 400 V DC bus systems with 50% voltage margin for transient overvoltage handling. |
| RDS(on) max | 150 mΩ - Limits conduction loss to ≤ 73 W at 22 A continuous drain current (TC = 25 °C). |
| Qg | 36 nC - Determines gate drive power requirement and enables <100 ns turn-off delay with 4.7 Ω external gate resistor. |
| EAS | 350 mJ - Supports reliable operation under unclamped inductive switching stress without external snubbers. |
| Coss | 70 pF - Reduces capacitive turn-on loss and improves efficiency in high-frequency (>100 kHz) resonant topologies. |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - Ensures immunity to false turn-on during high-slew-rate voltage transients in half-bridge applications. |
| TJ max | 150 °C - Allows sustained operation in enclosed industrial enclosures with ambient temperatures up to 85 °C. |
Pinout & Package
TO-220FP (Type B) package with insulated tab: thermally conductive but electrically isolated mounting surface; footprint compatible with standard TO-220 heatsinks; no solder tab required.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (G) | Gate | Control terminal requiring ≤ ±25 V bias; 5.5 Ω intrinsic gate resistance limits ringing in high-speed switching. |
| 2 (D) | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; connected to internal die backside; electrically tied to insulated tab in TO-220FP. |
| 3 (S) | Source | Power return path and gate reference node; must be routed with low-inductance layout to minimize VGS noise coupling. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh M2 technology | Enables 600 V rating with 135 mΩ RDS(on) - 25% lower on-resistance than prior-generation 600 V MOSFETs at same die size. |
| Zener-protected gate | Integrated gate oxide protection clamps VGS to ±25 V, eliminating need for external gate Zener diodes in noisy industrial environments. |
| 100% avalanche tested | Every unit validated for 3.6 A repetitive avalanche current - guarantees ruggedness in flyback and LLC primary switches. |
| Optimized Coss profile | 70 pF Coss with flat voltage dependence reduces energy loss during hard-switching transitions across full VDS range. |
| Low Qgd/Qgs ratio | 16 nC / 7.2 nC = 2.22 - improves Miller immunity and enables stable operation with moderate gate drive strength (≥1 A peak). |
Applications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STF24N60M2 | Lower ID (20 A), slightly higher RDS(on) (165 mΩ typ.), identical 600 V rating and TO-220FP package. | Reduced thermal margin in 22 A continuous designs; suitable for cost-sensitive 1.5–2 kW PFC stages. | Select when system peak current remains ≤20 A and board-level thermal design cannot accommodate 22 A derating. |
| IPP60R190C7 | Infineon CoolMOS C7; 600 V, 190 mΩ, 21 A; lower Qg (27 nC) but no integrated Zener gate protection. | Requires external gate protection circuitry; superior light-load efficiency due to lower Coss (45 pF). | Prefer where gate drive design includes discrete Zener clamping and EMI filtering is prioritized over ruggedness simplicity. |
Compared with STF24N60M2, STF28N60M2 provides +2 A current headroom and −15 mΩ RDS(on) for improved thermal margin; versus IPP60R190C7, it trades 9 nC higher Qg for built-in gate protection and 100% avalanche screening - reducing BOM count and qualification effort in industrial-grade power supplies.

FAQ
Is STF28N60M2 suitable for use in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes - its 70 pF Coss and 104 pF Coss,eq provide predictable resonant timing for soft-switching implementation in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge converters. Measured Coss vs. VDS curve (Figure 7) shows minimal voltage dependence, enabling accurate dead-time calculation and ZVS boundary prediction across 0–480 V.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching at 100 kHz?
A 10 Ω gate resistor is recommended for 100 kHz operation with 12 V gate drive, balancing switching speed (td(off) ≈ 100 ns) and gate oscillation suppression. Lower values (≤4.7 Ω) increase peak gate current demand (>2 A) and risk overshoot; higher values (>22 Ω) extend tf beyond 15 ns, raising switching loss disproportionately.
Does the TO-220FP package require electrical isolation between heatsink and PCB ground?
Yes - the TO-220FP Type B package features an electrically insulated tab (2.5 kV RMS isolation rating). Mounting requires non-conductive thermal interface material and isolated mounting hardware. Direct heatsink-to-drain connection is permitted only if the heatsink is fully floating or referenced to drain potential.
How does STF28N60M2 perform under partial conduction at elevated temperature?
At TJ = 125 °C, RDS(on) increases to 1.7× room-temperature value (≈229 mΩ), verified by Figure 10. Derated continuous current drops to 14 A (per Table 1), and safe operating area shrinks significantly above 100 V VDS; thermal design must maintain TC ≤ 85 °C to sustain 22 A operation.
