Product details

500 V, 8.5 A N-channel in a TO-220 — what it does

STP11NM50N is an N-channel MOSFET in a through-hole TO-220-3 package. With a total gate charge of 19 nC at 10 V, the gate-drive power requirement stays low — a small driver IC can switch this FET at moderate frequencies without excessive drive losses.

That means STMicroelectronics has ended production and there is no official last-time-buy window still open.

The 470 mOhm Rds(on) at 4.5 A and 10 V is the on-resistance at the specified test conditions.

Temperature range and heatsink consideration

Frequently asked questions

What is the Rds(on) of STP11NM50N?

The maximum Rds(on) is 470 mOhm at a drain current of 4.5 A and a gate-to-source voltage of 10 V. This is the on-resistance at the specified test conditions; actual on-resistance increases with junction temperature.

Does STP11NM50N require a heatsink?

For any continuous drain current above a few amps, a heatsink is required. The maximum power dissipation is 70 W at the case temperature, but the junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of a bare TO-220 is much higher — a heatsink is needed to keep the junction below 150°C.
