Product details
Overview
STW24N60M6 from STMicroelectronics is an N-channel 600 V, 17 A MDmesh™ M6 superjunction Power MOSFET in TO-247 package, featuring 162 mΩ typical RDS(on), 23 nC total gate charge, and 100% avalanche tested ruggedness. It delivers low switching losses and high efficiency in high-frequency hard-switching and resonant topologies including LLC and boost PFC converters.
For engineers reviewing the STW24N60M6 datasheet, STW24N60M6 pinout, STW24N60M6 application, or STW24N60M6 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 15 V/ns diode recovery dv/dt rating, 1.6 V source-drain forward voltage at 17 A, Zener-protected gate, and 0.96 °C/W junction-to-case thermal resistance for high-power density designs.
Technical Context
This MOSFET employs ST's MDmesh™ M6 silicon technology, optimized for high-voltage switching with reduced RDS(on) per die area and enhanced dynamic performance. Its 960 pF input capacitance (Ciss) and 4.5 pF reverse transfer capacitance (Crss) support fast, controllable turn-on/turn-off transitions under 480 V bus conditions.
The device integrates a robust body diode with 225 ns reverse recovery time (Tj = 25 °C) and 2.3 µC Qrr, enabling reliable operation in inductive-load switching circuits. Its ±25 V gate-source voltage rating and 5 Ω intrinsic gate resistance ensure stable drive interface compatibility with standard gate drivers.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |

| RDS(on) max | 190 mΩ - enables low conduction loss at 17 A continuous drain current (Tcase = 25 °C) |
| Qg | 23 nC - determines gate drive power requirement and switching speed in hard-switched applications |
| dv/dt ruggedness | 50 V/ns - ensures immunity to parasitic turn-on during high-slew-rate commutation events |
| EAS | 250 mJ - quantifies unclamped inductive switching energy handling capability without failure |
| Rthj-case | 0.96 °C/W - allows 130 W dissipation at Tcase = 25 °C, critical for heatsink-limited industrial designs |
| VSD | 1.6 V @ 17 A - defines forward conduction loss of integrated body diode in synchronous rectification or freewheeling paths |
Pinout & Package
TO-247 package: isolated tab (drain), 3-pin through-hole configuration with standard lead spacing and 14.5 mm minimum creepage distance. Mounting hole ØP = 3.6 mm; outline complies with JEDEC TO-247AC.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| D (Pin 2) | Drain | Main high-side power terminal; electrically connected to metal tab for direct heatsinking and low-inductance layout |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| IPP60R190C7 | 650 V rating, 190 mΩ RDS(on), 21 nC Qg, CoolMOS™ C7 technology | Higher VDS margin but slightly higher conduction loss at 17 A; optimized for <65 kHz operation | Prefer when system requires >600 V derating headroom or operates below 50 kHz with emphasis on EMI reduction |
| IXTH14N60L2 | 600 V, 220 mΩ RDS(on), 32 nC Qg, Linear L2 series with extended SOA | Lower dv/dt ruggedness (30 V/ns); superior linear-mode safe operating area for analog control | Choose only if design requires sustained linear-mode operation (e.g., electronic load, adjustable HV bias) |
Compared with IPP60R190C7 and IXTH14N60L2, STW24N60M6 offers the best balance of low RDS(on), fast switching (23 nC Qg, 50 V/ns dv/dt), and proven avalanche ruggedness-making it optimal for high-frequency, high-reliability 600 V switching where efficiency and transient immunity are prioritized.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous drain current at 100 °C case temperature?
The STW24N60M6 supports 10.7 A continuous drain current at Tcase = 100 °C, as specified in Table 1 of DS12730. This derating reflects thermal limits of the TO-247 package and ensures safe operation within the SOA boundary at elevated temperatures without exceeding 150 °C junction temperature.
Does this MOSFET include integrated gate protection?
Yes - the STW24N60M6 features an integrated Zener diode between gate and source, providing ±25 V gate-source voltage clamping. This eliminates the need for external gate protection components in most standard gate driver configurations and improves robustness against ESD and transient overvoltage events.
Can STW24N60M6 be used in zero-voltage switching (ZVS) topologies?
Yes - its 225 ns reverse recovery time (Tj = 25 °C), low Qrr (2.3 µC), and tightly controlled Coss (76 pF) make it well-suited for ZVS operation in LLC and phase-shifted full-bridge converters. The fast, predictable body diode recovery enables reliable soft switching across wide load and line ranges.
Is the TO-247 package lead-free and RoHS compliant?
Yes - STW24N60M6 is supplied in an ECOPACK®-compliant TO-247 package meeting RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH SVHC requirements. The device carries the "ECOPACK2" designation, indicating halogen-free molding compound and lead-free terminations per JEDEC J-STD-020.
