1.2 Ohm Rds(on) and 26 nC gate charge — conduction and switching budget
The STF6N52K3: Input capacitance is 670 pF at 50 V drain-source.
The STF6N52K3 is listed as obsolete. Buyers should evaluate functionally similar SuperMESH3 devices from STMicroelectronics with comparable 525 V and 5 A ratings in the same TO-220FP package.
Thermal and mounting — TO-220FP full-pack advantage
The TO-220FP full-pack package isolates the tab from the drain potential, so no mica washer or insulating pad is needed when mounting to a grounded heatsink. The through-hole mounting suits point-to-point wiring and board-level repairs.
