STMicroelectronics STP20NM
STP20NM variants from STMicroelectronics
STP20NM Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — MOSFETs.
STP20NM is a STMicroelectronics order-code family — not a single orderable MPN. This page lists 5 variants that share the same core device but differ in suffix fields (package, grade, reel/tube, electrical bin, etc.). Pick the exact full part number; substituting within the family without checking the datasheet often causes assembly or spec mismatches.
500V 20A N-CH MOSFET, 250mR Rds On, TO-220 Other listed variants describe: 500V 20A N-CH MOSFET TO-220 250mR FDmesh; 600V 20A N-Ch MOSFET TO-220 290mR.
Suffix examples in this family: 50, 50FD, 60, 60FD, 60FP. The characters after the base number usually encode package, temperature, or performance grade — compare the variant table column-by-column rather than assuming pin-compatible drops-in.
Example MPNs: STP20NM50, STP20NM50FD, STP20NM60, STP20NM60FD, STP20NM60FP.
Key Features
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 5 distinct suffix patternsExamples: 50, 50FD, 60, 60FD, 60FP. Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- MOSFETs — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained

Ordering Code Differences
How suffixes on STP20NM map to package, grade, and reel options.
STP20NM uses a shared prefix; characters after the prefix encode orderable options. Two lines with the same prefix are not drop-in replacements unless the differing columns match your need.
Suffixes seen here: 50, 50FD, 60, 60FD, 60FP.
Full MPN examples: STP20NM50, STP20NM50FD, STP20NM60, STP20NM60FD, STP20NM60FP.
Tip: photograph or copy the reel label — reel diameter, QTY per reel, and moisture sensitivity level (MSL) are often suffix-driven and won't show in the schematic.
How to Choose the Right STP20NM MOSFETs
Match the footprint first
Pull the exact package drawing for your MPN — base-number swaps fail most often at the footprint, not the schematic.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For STP20NM, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "STP20NM" — include the full suffix (e.g. 50, 50FD, 60). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
