Product details
Overview
STP20N60M2-EP from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 13 A Power MOSFET in TO-220 package, fabricated with MDmesh™ M2 EP technology. It delivers 0.230 Ω typ. RDS(on), 22 nC total gate charge, and 7.2 µJ typ. turn-off energy at 2 A - optimized for >150 kHz high-frequency switching in SMPS and resonant converters.
For engineers reviewing the STP20N60M2-EP datasheet, STP20N60M2-EP pinout, STP20N60M2-EP application, or STP20N60M2-EP equivalent, key selection criteria include avalanche ruggedness (138 mJ EAS), Zener-protected gate, low Coss profile (50 pF), and 1.14 °C/W Rthj-case for thermal-limited high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs a strip layout and enhanced vertical structure to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its low Qgd/Qgs ratio (10.5 nC / 3.5 nC) and 50 V/ns dv/dt ruggedness enable stable operation under fast transient conditions in hard-switched and ZVS topologies.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 230 ns trr at 25 °C and 287 ns at 150 °C, supporting synchronous rectification and LLC resonant applications. Its 100% avalanche-tested rating ensures reliability in unclamped inductive switching events up to 2.7 A repetitive IAR.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDS | 600 V - supports 400 V bus designs with 50% voltage margin for surge and ringing |
| RDS(on) max | 0.278 Ω - limits conduction loss to ≤9.4 W at 13 A continuous (TC = 25 °C) |
| Qg | 22 nC - enables fast 10.5 ns td(on) and 41 ns td(off) with 4.7 Ω gate resistor |
| Eoff | 7.2 µJ @ 2 A - reduces switching loss by >40% vs legacy 600 V Superjunction MOSFETs |
| Rthj-case | 1.14 °C/W - allows 110 W dissipation at TC = 25 °C without derating |
| Coss | 50 pF - minimizes capacitive turn-on loss and improves light-load efficiency in resonant converters |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - sustains fast voltage transients without spurious turn-on in high-dV/dt environments |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar high-voltage Power MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STW20N60M2-EP | TO-247 package, same die, Rthj-case = 0.85 °C/W, higher cost, larger footprint | Better thermal performance in high-power (>150 W) convection-cooled systems | Select when junction temperature must stay below 125 °C at >100 W dissipation without forced air |
| IPP60R099C7 | Infineon CoolMOS™ C7, 600 V/12 A, RDS(on) = 0.099 Ω, Qg = 34 nC, no integrated Zener | Lower RDS(on) but higher gate charge increases driver loss above 200 kHz | Prefer for lower conduction-loss priority in <150 kHz designs; requires external gate protection |
Compared with STW20N60M2-EP and IPP60R099C7, STP20N60M2-EP offers optimal balance of low switching loss (22 nC Qg, 7.2 µJ Eoff), integrated gate protection, and TO-220 cost-effectiveness for 100–300 kHz industrial SMPS where board space and thermal budget are constrained.

FAQ
Is STP20N60M2-EP suitable for zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes. Its 50 pF Coss, low Qgd/Qgs ratio (3.0), and 50 V/ns dv/dt ruggedness make it well-suited for LLC resonant and phase-shifted full-bridge converters. The flat Coss vs. VDS curve (Figure 7) ensures predictable ZVS timing across the operating voltage range.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for hard-switched 200 kHz operation?
A 4.7 Ω gate resistor is validated in the datasheet (Table 6) for 200 kHz operation with 7.2 µJ Eoff at 2 A. Increasing beyond 10 Ω raises td(off) and tf, risking overlap loss; values below 2.2 Ω require careful PCB layout to avoid gate oscillation due to 5.9 Ω intrinsic RG.
Does the body diode support synchronous rectification in continuous conduction mode (CCM)?
Yes. With 230 ns trr at 25 °C and 2.3 µC Qrr, the body diode supports CCM operation up to ~150 kHz in buck-derived topologies. At 150 °C, trr extends to 287 ns, requiring gate timing adjustment to avoid cross-conduction in synchronous FET control.
Can STP20N60M2-EP replace STP20NM60FD in existing designs?
No. STP20NM60FD is a Fast Diode variant with 35 ns trr and different RDS(on) (0.30 Ω typ.). STP20N60M2-EP has slower diode recovery (230 ns) but lower RDS(on) (0.230 Ω) and superior switching loss - suitable only where diode speed is not critical, e.g., in hard-switched PFC rather than synchronous rectification.
