Product details

500 V, 15 A N-channel power MOSFET in TO-220

It is designed for high-voltage switching applications such as power supplies, adapters, and lighting ballasts, where low on-resistance and fast switching are required.

The 500 V Vdss rating sets the maximum drain-to-source voltage the device can block in the off state, making it suitable for offline flyback and PFC stages in 240 VAC-input designs with derating margin.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Rds(on) of STP16NM50N?

The maximum Rds(on) is 260 mOhm at a drain current of 7.5 A and a gate-to-source voltage of 10 V.

What is the replacement for STP16NM50N?

For pin-compatible alternatives, a cross-reference search within the STP16N base product number family may yield a currently active device, but that must be verified against the specific application requirements.
