500 V, 7.5 A N-channel MOSFET in DPAK
The STD5NM50AG: Packaged in a TO-252 (DPAK) surface-mount outline with an exposed tab for thermal transfer to the PCB copper plane.
On-resistance and gate charge for switching loss budget
Gate charge totals 13 nC at 10 V Vgs — a driver sourcing 1 A can switch the gate in 13 ns, though the practical switching speed is limited by the gate loop inductance and the driver's peak current capability. Input capacitance is 415 pF at 100 V Vds — this capacitance charges and discharges through the gate resistor each cycle, contributing to the gate drive power loss at frequency.
Thermal and voltage margins for industrial designs
Gate-source voltage is rated to ±30 V absolute maximum, providing margin against overshoot from a poorly damped gate drive trace in a noisy power stage layout.
