600 V, 10 A automotive N-channel — what the specs mean for the power stage
The STD12N60DM2AG: AEC-Q101 qualified for automotive applications. The gate charge is 14.5 nC at 10 V, and the input capacitance is 614 pF at 100 V drain-source — both relatively low figures that keep the gate-drive power requirement modest and support fast switching transitions in hard-switched topologies.
Package and thermal: DPAK layout notes
The DPAK (TO-252) footprint is widely used in automotive power stages.
