60 V, 95 A N-channel — what this TO-220 MOSFET delivers
The 5.9 mOhm on-resistance at 57 A means conduction losses stay low enough that a modest heatsink on the TO-220 tab keeps the junction within the -55°C to 175°C operating range, even in a motor-drive or power-supply rail where the current is continuous.
Gate drive and switching — sizing the driver
A gate driver delivering 1 A peak will switch this MOSFET in under 200 ns; a 100 mA logic-level output will be too slow and risk linear-mode heating during the transition.
Through-hole package — field-swappable without a hot-air station
The TO-220-3 through-hole package means a standard soldering iron and solder sucker are all you need to swap this part on site. No hot-air rework station, no preheater — just clear the board, wick the pads, and drop the new device in. The tab is the drain, and the gate is the left pin when the part faces you with the tab to the back. A 5°C/W heatsink keeps the junction below 125°C at 95 A with 5.9 mOhm Rds(on).
The 175°C Tj max is the absolute ceiling; continuous operation above 150°C Tj accelerates the bond-wire fatigue rate.
Sourcing — quoted to order, no stock-holding claim
Sourced through independent distribution channels. No official second-source or direct replacement is listed on the Infineon cross-reference; the IPD50R950CEAUMA1 is a 500 V CoolMOS surface-mount part that is not a functional substitute for this 60 V through-hole device.
