High-Performance Power Management with STM STL18N65M2 MOSFET
In modern power electronics, selecting components that balance efficiency, durability, and compact design is critical. The STL18N65M2 N-Channel MOSFET from STMicroelectronics emerges as a cutting-edge solution designed for high-voltage applications requiring robust thermal performance and minimal conduction losses. This device, part of STM’s renowned MDmesh™ M2 series, combines advanced silicon technology with an innovative PowerFlat™ (5x6) HV package to deliver exceptional reliability in demanding environments.
Advanced Specifications for Demanding Applications
Engineered for high-speed switching and power conversion systems, the STL18N65M2 boasts a 650 V drain-source voltage rating and 8 A continuous drain current at 25°C. Its 365 mΩ maximum RDS(on) at 4 A and 10 V gate-source voltage ensures minimal power dissipation, while the ±25 V gate-source voltage tolerance enhances operational safety. The device’s 21.5 nC gate charge at 10 V enables fast switching transitions, reducing energy loss in applications like DC-DC converters, LED lighting systems, and industrial motor drives.
Innovative Packaging for Superior Thermal Management
The PowerFlat™ HV package eliminates the need for heatsinks in many designs, thanks to its surface-mount configuration and 57 W power dissipation capability. With 764 pF input capacitance at 100 V and 4 V gate threshold voltage, this MOSFET maintains stable performance even under fluctuating load conditions. Its 8-PowerVDFN package measures just 5x6 mm, enabling space-constrained designs without compromising on power handling.
