Followings are the key electrical characteristics of the 20N60 MOSFET transistor
The maximum drain-source voltage that can safely block between drain and source in 20N60 MOSFET transistor is 600V.
This is the highest voltage the MOSFET transistor can safely block between the drain and source without damadging to the transistor.
The maximum safe voltage that can be used between the gate and source of the 20N60 MOSFET transistor is 30V without any harm. This limit should not be exceeded to prevent damage from the gate voltage.
The maximum continuous current flowing between the drain and source of the 20N60 MOSFET transistor is 20A. This is the highest current that can safely flow between drain and source without damaging the MOSFET transistor.
The internal resistance between the drain and source of 20N60 MOSFET transistor when the transistor is fully turned on is 0.32 Ohm that defines the amount of lost power that is wasted as heat when the transistor is operating.
The maximum power that the 20N60 MOSFET transistor can comfortably transfer into heat without breaking is 416W. This indicates the amount of power that can safely be dissipated to the device as heat.
The capacitance between drain and source of the 20N60 MOSFET transistor is 330pF. This value influences to the switching speed of the 20N60 MOSFET transistor and the high-frequency performance.
This is the ability to hold a small electric charge between the drain and source of a MOSFET transistor, like a tiny built-in capacitor.
The time that the drain current or output voltage increases between low to high when the 20N60 MOSFET transistor is switched on is 130nS. This is the rate at which 20N60 MOSFET transistor switches on.
This shows how fast the MOSFET transistor switched on.
The maximum internal temperature of the semiconductor junction of 20N60 MOSFET transistor can be safely operated at the 150°C without damaging the transistor.
