ST STP12NM50FD/STP12NM50FDFP/STW14NM50FD/STB12NM50FD/STB12NM50FD-1 handbook
This document provides technical specifications for a series of N-channel 500V FDmesh™ Power MOSFETs with integrated FAST DIODEs. The devices are designed for high dv/dt and avalanche capabilities, making them suitable for bridge topologies such as ZVS phase-shift converters used in SMPS and welding equipment.
The datasheet covers absolute maximum ratings, electrical characteristics including on-resistance and switching times, safe operating areas for various packages (TO-220, D²PAK, I²PAK, TO-247), thermal data, avalanche characteristics, and mechanical dimensions.
