At 16.5 A drain current and 10 V gate drive, the 91 mΩ maximum on-resistance translates to roughly 25 W conduction loss at that current — well within the 250 W power dissipation rating at the case. For a typical 500 W PFC boost stage running at 8 A average, the loss drops to about 6 W, leaving thermal headroom for the heatsink.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Rds(on) of STP50N65DM6?
At lower gate voltages the resistance increases significantly, so the design should supply a 10 V gate drive rail to achieve the rated Rds(on).
