What this 600 V N-channel MOSFET brings to the board
The STFI24NM60N: The through-hole I²PAKFP (TO-281) full-pack package isolates the back tab, simplifying heatsinking in designs where the tab would otherwise carry the drain potential.
For existing designs already qualified on the STFI24NM60N, the procurement path runs through independent distribution — surplus and new-old-stock inventory sourced on a quoted-to-order basis. If you are evaluating this for a new design, look at current MDmesh series parts with similar voltage and current ratings; the package and gate-drive requirements will guide the swap.
The 600 V Vdss rating gives headroom for universal-input AC-DC converters. Gate charge is 46 nC at 10 V. Input capacitance is 1400 pF at 50 V Vds.
The through-hole I²PAKFP package (TO-281) mounts into a standard TO-262 footprint; the full-pack moulding isolates the tab, so no insulating pad is needed between the device and a grounded heatsink. That saves assembly steps and improves thermal transfer in high-vibration applications.
