Product details

600 V, 18 A N-channel power MOSFET for high-efficiency switching

On-resistance and gate charge — the efficiency trade-off

The 24 nC gate charge is notably low for a 600 V, 18 A device, which reduces the energy lost per switching cycle and allows a smaller gate-drive transformer or bootstrap supply. Compared to the earlier MDmesh™ M2 generation (STP26N60M2), the DM6 series typically offers a 20–30% reduction in gate charge for a similar Rds(on), translating to lower drive power and faster switching transitions — a meaningful improvement in high-frequency designs.

Package and mounting — TO-220-3 through-hole

Housed in the standard TO-220-3 through-hole package, the STP26N60DM6 mounts to a heatsink via the metal tab. The three-lead layout is industry-standard, compatible with existing PCB footprints and heatsink clips. The junction-to-case thermal path dominates; a well-greased TO-220 to a 3–5°C/W heatsink keeps the die below 125°C at full load.

This is a standard-catalog MOSFET, not a legacy or NRND line, so lead times and allocation risk are typical for the 600 V discrete segment. No LTB or obsolescence risk for new designs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the closest pin-compatible alternative to STP26N60DM6?

The STP26N60M2 from the earlier MDmesh™ M2 series is a direct TO-220-3 pin-compatible alternative. The DM6 variant offers lower gate charge for better switching performance, but both share the same footprint and 600 V / 18 A rating.

Is STP26N60DM6 RoHS compliant?

The STP26N60DM6 is manufactured by STMicroelectronics and is RoHS compliant by design, as is standard for the MDmesh™ DM6 series. No separate RoHS certificate is required for procurement.
