STW28N60DM2

STW28N60DM2 is a high-performance, 600V, N-channel Power MOSFET manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for efficient switching applications in power conversion and management systems. It features a low on-resistance (RDS(on) = 1.3 Ω at VGS = 10V), which minimizes conduction losses and enhances overall system efficiency. The device is optimized for fast switching speeds, reducing switching losses and enabling operation at higher frequencies—ideal for modern power electronics where thermal performance and compact design are critical. This MOSFET incorporates advanced trench technology and a robust structure that ensures excellent thermal stability and high reliability under harsh operating conditions. Its maximum drain current (ID) rating of 28A at 25°C ambient temperature makes it suitable for high-power applications such as switch-mode power supplies (SMPS), industrial motor drives, and renewable energy inverters. The gate threshold voltage (VGS(th)) ranges from 2.0 to 4.0V, allowing compatibility with standard logic-level drivers and simplifying integration into digital control circuits. The STW28N60DM2 includes a built-in anti-parallel diode, which facilitates freewheeling current paths in inductive load applications, improving circuit simplicity and reducing component count. It also offers superior avalanche ruggedness and safe operating area (SOA) characteristics, ensuring protection against transient overloads and voltage spikes commonly found in industrial and automotive environments. Packaged in a TO-220AB plastic case with an isolated tab, the device provides effective heat dissipation and mechanical durability, making it ideal for surface-mount or through-hole PCB mounting. Its compliance with RoHS standards reflects STMicroelectronics’ commitment to environmentally responsible manufacturing practices. Common applications include DC-DC converters, battery charging systems, LED lighting drivers, and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). The combination of high breakdown voltage, low RDS(on), and fast switching behavior enables designers to build more compact, efficient, and reliable power solutions across consumer, industrial, and automotive markets.
