The FDA16N50 is a 500V N-Channel MOSFET from the UniFET series, manufactured by Fairchild Semiconductor and now part of onsemi. It features a typical drain current of 16.5A at 25°C case temperature and a maximum on-resistance of 0.38Ω at VGS=10V. Key electrical parameters include a total gate charge of 32nC typ, reverse transfer capacitance of 20pF typ, and single pulsed avalanche energy of 780mJ. The device utilizes planar stripe DMOS technology for optimized switching performance.
Verify the manufacturer origin as Fairchild Semiconductor or onsemi, noting that Fairchild was acquired by onsemi. Confirm the package type is TO-3PN and check the revision status (Rev. B) against current inventory. Ensure the specific ordering suffix matches the required variant, such as F109, if applicable to the supply chain requirements.
Select this component for designs requiring 500V blocking voltage with moderate continuous current handling up to 16.5A. Consider the thermal resistance characteristics and the need for adequate heatsinking given the 205W dissipation rating at 25°C case temperature. Evaluate the gate charge requirements against the driver capabilities to ensure optimal switching speeds.
This device belongs to the UniFET family of power MOSFETs produced using proprietary planar stripe DMOS technology. The FDA series is specifically engineered to minimize on-state resistance while providing superior switching performance. It represents a legacy product line originally developed by Fairchild Semiconductor before its acquisition by onsemi.
Check for direct equivalents within the FDA series or other 500V N-Channel MOSFETs with similar RDS(on) and Qg specifications. Verify pinout compatibility for TO-3PN packages when substituting. Review updated datasheets from onsemi for any design changes or obsolescence notices.
