Product details
Overview
STL23NM60ND from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 23 A, 0.22 Ω typ. DPAK-3 MOSFET designed for high-voltage switching in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial motor drives. It features low gate charge (45 nC), fast switching (trise = 25 ns, tfall = 20 ns), and avalanche-rated ruggedness (EAS = 470 mJ) for reliable operation under transient stress.
For engineers reviewing the STL23NM60ND datasheet, STL23NM60ND pinout, STL23NM60ND application, or STL23NM60ND equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) at 10 V VGS, SOA compliance at 25 °C and 100 °C, unclamped inductive switching capability, thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.8 °C/W), and gate threshold voltage stability across temperature.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's proprietary SuperMESH™ technology to achieve optimized trade-offs between conduction loss and switching speed. Its planar stripe gate structure supports robust dv/dt immunity (>4.5 V/ns) and reduced Miller capacitance (Crss = 35 pF), enabling stable operation in hard-switched topologies without external gate clamping.
The device is fully characterized for operation up to Tj = 150 °C with guaranteed parameters including pulsed drain current (ID = 92 A), peak diode recovery dv/dt (5.5 V/ns), and zero-temperature-coefficient point at ~4 V - critical for gate drive design in wide-input-range converters.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports universal AC input (85–265 VAC) with ≥2× safety margin in flyback and LLC resonant converters. |
| RDS(on) max @ VGS = 10 V | 0.27 Ω - ensures <1.4 W conduction loss at 23 A DC, enabling thermally constrained PCB layouts. |
| Qg | 45 nC - enables efficient 100–300 kHz switching with standard 1-A gate drivers without excessive power dissipation. |
| EAS | 470 mJ - guarantees single-pulse avalanche survivability during output short-circuit or transformer saturation events. |
| RthJC | 1.8 °C/W - allows direct heatsinking to small aluminum plates (≥15 cm²) for continuous 23 A operation at Tc ≤ 85 °C. |
| trr of body diode | 120 ns - minimizes reverse recovery loss in synchronous rectification and bidirectional DC/DC applications. |
Pinout & Package
STL23NM60ND is housed in a surface-mount DPAK-3 (TO-252-3) package with exposed drain pad for enhanced thermal performance. The package meets JEDEC MO-238 standards and supports reflow soldering per IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D.2.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Pin 1 (Source) | Power return path for load current | Internally connected to all source regions; must be routed to low-inductance ground plane to minimize switching noise coupling. |
| Pin 2 (Gate) | Control terminal for channel modulation | High-impedance input requiring RC snubber (100 Ω + 100 pF) to suppress ringing during fast transitions. |
| Pin 3 (Drain) | Main high-side power node | Exposed metal tab electrically tied to drain; requires isolation from heatsink unless using insulating thermal pad rated ≥600 V. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Each unit validated for EAS ≥ 470 mJ - eliminates need for external clamping in cost-sensitive PFC designs. |
| Low Qg/RDS(on) ratio | 45 nC / 0.22 Ω = 204 - improves figure-of-merit for high-frequency SMPS where gate drive loss dominates efficiency. |
| Enhanced dv/dt immunity | Rated >4.5 V/ns at VDD = 400 V - prevents false turn-on in high-noise industrial inverters without active Miller clamp. |
| Extended safe operating area | SOA curve validated up to 100 °C case temperature - supports derating-free operation in sealed enclosures. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP60R280P7XKSA1 (Infineon) | RDS(on) = 0.28 Ω, Qg = 36 nC, VDS = 600 V, TO-220FP package | Higher thermal resistance (RthJC = 2.5 °C/W); requires larger heatsink in space-constrained designs | Preferred when lower gate charge is prioritized over RDS(on) and through-hole mounting is acceptable. |
| IXTP26N60P (IXYS) | RDS(on) = 0.26 Ω, Qg = 52 nC, VDS = 600 V, TO-220AB package | No avalanche rating specified; SOA limited to 25 °C ambient without derating | Suitable for cost-sensitive non-safety-critical applications where avalanche robustness is not required. |
Compared with IPP60R280P7XKSA1 and IXTP26N60P, STL23NM60ND offers superior thermal performance in surface-mount form factor, guaranteed avalanche energy, and tighter RDS(on) tolerance - making it optimal for compact, high-reliability offline power supplies where board space and transient resilience are critical.

FAQ
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for STL23NM60ND in 200 kHz SMPS designs?
A 10 Ω gate resistor is recommended for 200 kHz operation to balance switching speed and EMI control. Lower values (≤5 Ω) increase dv/dt stress on gate driver and layout; higher values (>15 Ω) extend switching times, raising total losses. ST's AN4372 application note confirms this value maintains trise/tfall within 25–30 ns while limiting overshoot to <10% of VGS.
Does STL23NM60ND require a negative gate turn-off voltage to ensure reliable commutation?
No. STL23NM60ND has a gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) of 2.0–4.0 V and exhibits no parasitic turn-on down to 0 V gate drive. Negative bias is unnecessary for hard-switched topologies; however, a 0 V to 12 V gate drive range is sufficient for full enhancement and safe turn-off under all operating conditions per ST's datasheet Figure 9.
Can STL23NM60ND be used in parallel configurations for higher current handling?
Yes, but only with matched units and symmetrical PCB layout. ST recommends selecting devices from the same wafer lot to minimize RDS(on) variation (<5%), using individual gate resistors (≥5 Ω), and ensuring identical source inductance paths. Parallel operation beyond 40 A requires thermal monitoring of each device's case temperature to prevent current imbalance due to positive temperature coefficient behavior.
Is the body diode of STL23NM60ND suitable for synchronous rectification in LLC resonant converters?
No - the body diode has relatively high reverse recovery charge (Qrr = 120 nC) and slow recovery time (trr = 120 ns), causing significant switching loss and voltage spikes in high-frequency LLC operation. For synchronous rectification, ST recommends pairing STL23NM60ND with discrete Schottky diodes or dedicated SR controllers driving low-VF MOSFETs instead of relying on its intrinsic diode.
