Product details
Overview
STP23NM60N from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 0.150 Ω RDS(on), 19 A TO-220 packaged MDmesh™ II Power MOSFET designed for high-efficiency switching in offline SMPS, PFC stages, and industrial motor drives. It features 100% avalanche tested ruggedness, low gate charge (60 nC), and optimized capacitance profile for fast, low-loss hard-switching.
For engineers reviewing the STP23NM60N datasheet, STP23NM60N pinout, STP23NM60N application, or STP23NM60N equivalent, key selection criteria include its 600 V VDSS, 0.150 Ω max RDS(on) at 10 VGS, 60 nC total gate charge, 150 °C Tj rating, and TO-220 thermal resistance of 0.83 °C/W (junction-to-case).
Technical Context
This second-generation MDmesh™ device uses a proprietary vertical structure combined with strip layout to minimize conduction and switching losses simultaneously. Its 2050 pF Ciss, 140 pF Coss, and 8 pF Crss enable stable high-frequency operation up to 100 kHz in continuous conduction mode PFC.
The MOSFET integrates a robust body diode with 470 ns reverse recovery time and 7 µC Qrr at 25 °C, supporting ZVS-capable topologies. Its 15 V/ns dv/dt immunity and 9 A IAS repetitive avalanche rating ensure reliability under transient overvoltage and inductive turn-off stress.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VDSS | 600 V - Withstands full mains rectified voltage in 230 VAC systems with margin |
| RDS(on) max | 0.150 Ω @ VGS = 10 V - Enables <1.4 W conduction loss at 19 A DC |
| Qg | 60 nC - Reduces gate drive power and enables use with standard 1-A peak drivers |
| Ciss | 2050 pF - Supports stable 100 kHz switching with minimal Miller-induced oscillation risk |
| Tj max | 150 °C - Allows operation in sealed enclosures without forced air cooling |
| Rthj-case | 0.83 °C/W - Delivers 150 W dissipation capability with standard TO-220 heatsink |
| EAS | 700 mJ - Sustains single-pulse inductive energy without failure in unclamped tests |
Pinout & Package
STP23NM60N is housed in a through-hole TO-220 package with isolated tab (pin 2), compliant with JEDEC TO-220AB mechanical standard and ECOPACK® lead-free finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (Source) | Power return path for load current | Low-inductance connection point; ties directly to PCB ground plane for EMI control |
| 2 (Drain) | Main high-side power terminal | Internally connected to metal tab - electrically active and thermally critical |
| 3 (Gate) | Control input for channel modulation | High-impedance node requiring <100 Ω series resistance to suppress ringing during fast transitions |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 100% avalanche tested | Guarantees 9 A IAS and 700 mJ EAS performance across production lot - eliminates need for external snubbers in flyback clamp circuits |
| Low Qg/RDS(on) ratio | 60 nC / 0.150 Ω = 400 nC·Ω - superior figure-of-merit vs. first-gen 600 V MOSFETs, enabling higher efficiency at 65–100 kHz |
| Optimized Coss linearity | Coss eq. = 260 pF from 0–480 V - ensures predictable turn-off timing and reduced voltage overshoot in LLC resonant converters |
| Fast body diode recovery | trr = 470 ns, Qrr = 7 µC - minimizes commutation loss in synchronous rectification and half-bridge freewheeling |
Applications
| Server PSU Primary Switch | Industrial AC-DC Front-End |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP60R190C6 | 650 V, 0.190 Ω RDS(on), 65 nC Qg, TO-220 - higher RDS(on) but lower Coss (1250 pF) | Better suited for >150 kHz resonant topologies where capacitance dominates loss | Select when prioritizing switching loss over conduction loss in high-frequency designs |
| STW23NM60N | Same die, TO-247 package - 0.35 °C/W Rthj-case, 35 W PTOT vs. 150 W for STP23NM60N | Required for >150 W continuous dissipation or forced-air-cooled systems | Choose when thermal budget exceeds TO-220 capability or heatsink space permits larger footprint |
Compared with IPP60R190C6, STP23NM60N delivers 21% lower conduction loss at 19 A but trades 64% higher Ciss; versus STW23NM60N, it offers identical electrical specs in a lower-cost, smaller-footprint package with 4.7× higher thermal resistance - ideal for cost-sensitive 100–150 W applications.

FAQ
Is STP23NM60N pin-compatible with other ST 23NM60x devices?
Yes - STP23NM60N shares identical TO-220 pinout (Drain-Source-Gate) with STF23NM60N (TO-220FP) and STI23NM60N (I²PAK), though thermal and mounting constraints differ. Mechanical compatibility does not imply identical SOA or thermal derating curves; always verify safe operating area per package type.
What is the maximum recommended gate resistor value for reliable switching?
A 10 Ω to 22 Ω gate resistor is recommended to balance switching speed and ringing suppression. At 10 VGS, 60 nC Qg, and 10 Ω RG, turn-on delay is ~25 ns and rise time ~15 ns - matching typical 65 kHz PFC timing requirements while limiting dV/dt-induced false triggering.
Does STP23NM60N require a negative gate turn-off voltage?
No - the device operates reliably with 0 V to +10 V gate drive. Its ±25 V VGS rating supports optional –5 V turn-off for enhanced noise immunity in noisy industrial environments, but is not required for normal operation or avalanche robustness.
Can STP23NM60N be used in synchronous rectification configurations?
No - it is an N-channel high-side/main switch, not optimized as a synchronous rectifier. Its body diode trr (470 ns) and Qrr (7 µC) are suitable for freewheeling but lack the ultra-low VSD (<0.5 V) and sub-100 ns trr needed for efficient SR replacement in LLC or forward converters.
