STD65N55F3 & STD60N55F3: Low RDS(on) Power MOSFETs
for Industrial and Automotive Applications


Product Pages: STD65N55F3 STD60N55F3

Following the recent introduction of the STB180N55F3 and STB185N55F3, ST has enlarged its range of devices designed in the new STripFET III technology. The new STD65N55F3 and STD60N55F3 compete well against the best industry technologies to achieve one of the lowest RDS(on) values in DPAK.

Custom Made Devices

Instead of generating multi-application devices, the individual requirements of the automotive and industrial segments are met in separate components. Consequently the industrial market is the main target for the STD60N55F3, while the STD65N55F3 has been developed for harsh automotive applications, and is fully compliant to all of ST's strict automotive rules.


Applications
High current switching applications
DC / DC converters
Wiping systems
PWM motion control
PWM FAN control
Diesel glow plug

"N...F3" Series Power MOSFETs
The 55V "N...F3" series Power MOSFET comes from the Multi-Drain approach now applied to low voltage technology in order to significantly reduce the RDS(on) per area.
The RDS(on) per area for these new "N...F3" series Power MOSFETs is about 40% lower than that of the previous "NF" series, as already seen for the first devices housed in D2PAK, and TO-220. In fact, the "N...F3" series provides the same RDS(on) value with about 40% less silicon area.

Features
175°C operating temperature
Standard threshold drive
Typical RDS(on) in the range of 6.5mOhm.
100% avalanche rated tested, either at wafer level or finished parts

Lower Gate Charge
Both STD65N55F3 and STD60N55F3 have a lower gate charge value compared to STD60NF06, the equivalent device made with standard STripFET II technology.

The new devices also have a QGD / QGS ratio about three times lower than that of the “NF” series. This is important for minimizing cross-conduction power losses due to shoot-through, mainly in DC-DC converters and in full-bridge motion control applications.
