500 V, 20 A N-Channel MOSFET in TO-220 — FDmesh fast-recovery diode
Packaged in a through-hole TO-220-3, it delivers 192 W maximum power dissipation. The FDmesh technology integrates a fast-recovery body diode, which reduces reverse-recovery charge in bridge topologies such as half-bridge and full-bridge converters.
Input capacitance is 1380 pF at 25 V drain-source, a figure to consider when sizing the gate-drive source impedance for rise-time control.
STMicroelectronics lists the STP20NM50FD as Active. For BOM planning, the active status removes the supply-risk flag that obsolete or NRND parts carry.
