Product details

Total gate charge is 30 nC at 10 V, a moderate figure that keeps the gate-drive power manageable in hard-switched topologies. The ±25 V maximum gate-source rating provides headroom for gate-drive overshoot, but the recommended drive voltage for lowest Rds(on) is 10 V.

Obsolete — sourcing the STP12NM50N today

For new designs, a pin-compatible alternative from the same MDmesh family with similar voltage and current ratings should be evaluated — the STP12NM50N's 500 V, 11 A, TO-220 footprint is a common specification, and several active MDmesh II or MDmesh V parts fit that envelope.

Frequently asked questions

What is the replacement for STP12NM50N?

The lifecycle record does not list an official successor. A functionally compatible replacement should match the 500 V drain-source, 11 A continuous drain, TO-220 package, and N-channel polarity. Several active STMicroelectronics MDmesh V parts in the same package and voltage class are worth evaluating. Contact us with your application details for cross-reference assistance.
