Product details
Overview
STP10NM60N from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 530 mΩ typ., 10 A MDmesh™ II Power MOSFET in DPAK (TO-252) package, designed for high-efficiency switching converters. It features 100% avalanche tested ruggedness, low gate charge (19 nC), and low input capacitance (540 pF), enabling fast switching in SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the STP10NM60N datasheet, STP10NM60N pinout, STP10NM60N application, or STP10NM60N equivalent, key selection criteria include RDS(on) stability over temperature, unclamped inductive switching capability (EAS = 200 mJ), diode reverse recovery performance (Qrr = 2.12 µC), and thermal resistance (RthJC = 1.79 °C/W).
Technical Context
This device employs ST's second-generation MDmesh vertical strip architecture to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its 600 V V(BR)DSS rating with only 530 mΩ typical RDS(on) enables high-voltage operation without sacrificing efficiency in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC and LLC resonant converters.
The integrated body diode exhibits low forward voltage (VSD = 1.3 V at 8 A) and controlled reverse recovery (trr = 250 ns, Qrr = 2.12 µC), reducing commutation losses and EMI in hard-switched topologies. Gate drive compatibility is ensured by a 2–4 V VGS(th) range and low intrinsic gate resistance (6 Ω).
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| V(BR)DSS | 600 V - Withstands full-line transients in 400 V DC bus systems without breakdown. |
| RDS(on) max | 550 mΩ at VGS = 10 V, ID = 4 A - Limits conduction loss to ≤2.2 W at 10 A continuous drain current. |
| Qg | 19 nC - Enables efficient 100–300 kHz switching with standard 1-A gate drivers. |
| EAS | 200 mJ - Supports robust unclamped inductive switching in flyback and forward converters. |
| RthJC | 1.79 °C/W - Allows 70 W power dissipation with ≤127 °C junction rise above case at 25 °C ambient. |
| trr | 250 ns at TJ = 25 °C - Minimizes diode-induced voltage spikes and cross-conduction risk in synchronous rectification. |
| ID cont | 10 A at TC = 25 °C - Sustains full-rated current with adequate heatsinking on PCB copper area. |
Pinout & Package
DPAK (TO-252) package with exposed drain tab for thermal and electrical connection; surface-mount, single-row 3-terminal outline conforming to JEDEC MO-247.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Tab (Drain) | Power Drain Terminal | Electrically and thermally connected to internal drain; requires soldered copper pour for heat dissipation and low-inductance return path. |
| Pin 1 (Gate) | Control Input | High-impedance MOS gate requiring <100 nA leakage; sensitive to ESD; driven via series resistor (4.7 Ω typical) to damp ringing. |
| Pin 3 (Source) | Power Source Reference | Return path for load current and gate drive loop; must be routed with minimal inductance to reduce switching overshoot. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| MDmesh™ II vertical structure | Reduces specific on-resistance by >30% vs. planar 600 V MOSFETs, enabling smaller die size without compromising ruggedness. |
| 100% avalanche rated | Guarantees reliable operation under unclamped inductive switching stress up to 200 mJ, eliminating need for external snubbers in many designs. |
| Low Ciss/Coss ratio | 540 pF / 44 pF = 12.3 - Improves voltage-dependent capacitance linearity, easing ZVS implementation in resonant topologies. |
| Optimized body diode | Qrr = 2.12 µC and trr = 250 ns - Reduces diode recovery loss and associated EMI compared to standard fast-recovery MOSFETs. |
| ECOPACK® compliant | Meets RoHS and halogen-free requirements per ST's environmental grade definitions; suitable for industrial and consumer end equipment. |
Applications
| Server PSU Primary Switch | Industrial AC-DC Adapter |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: High-density 1 kW server power supply operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) PFC stage. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Main switching element in boost PFC circuit, switching at 65–100 kHz with 10 A peak inductor current. Use Value: Low RDS(on) (530 mΩ typ.) and low Qg (19 nC) reduce total losses to <1.8 W at full load, improving system efficiency to ≥96%. |
Use Scenario: 300 W industrial AC-DC adapter with universal input (85–265 VAC) and 24 V/12.5 A output. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Primary-side switch in quasi-resonant flyback controller, operating up to 130 kHz with valley switching. Use Value: Avalanche ruggedness (EAS = 200 mJ) eliminates need for clamping circuits, simplifying BOM and improving reliability under line surge conditions. |
| Solar Microinverter Half-Bridge | Motor Drive Inverter Stage |
|
Use Scenario: 300 W solar microinverter using interleaved half-bridge topology with transformer isolation. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: High-side switch in dual active bridge, handling bidirectional 600 V DC link with 8 A RMS current. Use Value: Controlled diode recovery (Qrr = 2.12 µC) minimizes shoot-through risk during dead-time transitions, enabling tighter timing control. |
Use Scenario: 750 W BLDC motor drive for HVAC compressors, operating from 300–400 V DC bus. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Low-side switch in 3-phase inverter leg, switching at 16 kHz with 10 A peak phase current. Use Value: RthJC = 1.79 °C/W allows direct mounting to aluminum heatsink, maintaining TJ < 125 °C without forced air cooling. |
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP12NK60Z | 600 V, 520 mΩ typ., 12 A, Zener-protected gate; higher Qg (32 nC); same DPAK package. | Higher current rating suits higher-power PFC, but increased gate charge raises driver loss at >150 kHz. | Select when needing higher ID rating and gate protection, accepting trade-off in switching speed. |
| FQP10N60C | 600 V, 650 mΩ max., 10 A, standard planar MOSFET; no avalanche rating; TO-220 package. | Lacks avalanche ruggedness and has higher RDS(on); unsuitable for unclamped inductive loads or high-reliability industrial use. | Acceptable only in cost-sensitive, low-stress applications where EAS and diode Qrr are not critical. |
Compared with STP12NK60Z, STP10NM60N offers lower gate charge and superior diode recovery for high-frequency PFC, while FQP10N60C lacks avalanche rating and thermal performance-making STP10NM60N optimal for compact, high-efficiency, and rugged industrial switching.

FAQ
Is STP10NM60N pin-compatible with STD10NM60N?
Yes - both share identical DPAK (TO-252) package, pinout (G-S-D), and electrical specifications. STD10NM60N is the tape-and-reel version; STP10NM60N is the tube-packaged variant. Mechanical dimensions, thermal data, and absolute maximum ratings are fully aligned per DS11416 Rev 2.
What is the maximum recommended gate drive voltage?
The absolute maximum gate-source voltage is ±25 V, but ST recommends limiting VGS to +10 V to ensure stable RDS(on) and avoid overstressing the gate oxide. Gate threshold voltage ranges from 2–4 V, allowing reliable turn-on with standard 12 V logic-level drivers.
Does STP10NM60N require a gate resistor for safe operation?
Yes - a series gate resistor (typically 4.7–10 Ω) is required to damp parasitic oscillation, limit peak gate current, and control dV/dt during switching. Without it, ringing can exceed VGS rating and cause erratic turn-on or shoot-through in bridge configurations.
Can STP10NM60N replace STP10NK60Z in existing designs?
No - STP10NK60Z uses older planar technology with higher RDS(on) (650 mΩ), no avalanche rating, and different dynamic parameters. While pinout matches, substituting it risks thermal runaway and failure under inductive switching stress due to missing EAS and degraded Qrr performance.
