2060K MOSFET — Specifications & Equivalents

About the 2060K

The 2060K is a MOSFET with a drain–source voltage (V_DS) rating of 20 V and a continuous drain current (I_D) of 60 A. It can dissipate up to 64 W and is rated to a junction temperature of 150 °C. It is supplied in the TO-252 package.

Typical applications

With its 20 V drain–source rating the 2060K sits in the very-low-voltage class of switching MOSFETs, typically found in battery protection and power-path switching, point-of-load converters and logic-level load switching in portable devices.

The 60 A current rating puts it in high-current territory, where conduction loss (I² × R_DS(on)) and thermal design usually matter more than switching loss. Budget for adequate copper area and a heatsink.

Gate drive and switching notes

Keep gate–source voltage within the ±12 V maximum; exceeding it punctures the gate oxide and destroys the device permanently.

Switching behaviour is characterised by an output capacitance (C_oss) of 365 pF, which together with the gate drive determines switching loss and the practical upper frequency limit.

Choosing a replacement for the 2060K

A drop-in substitute for the 2060K should match its polarity and offer a drain–source rating of at least 20 V and a continuous drain current rating of at least 60 A.

Mechanically, check the replacement against the TO-252 footprint and confirm the pin order — parts sharing a package outline do not always share a pinout.

Where the application switches inductive loads or runs near the voltage limit, keep extra headroom rather than choosing a part that only just meets the original numbers.

Frequently asked questions

What is the 2060K?

The 2060K is a MOSFET (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor). It is rated for 20 V drain-source and 60 A continuous drain current.

What is the maximum voltage of the 2060K?

The 2060K has a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 20 V. Treat this as an absolute maximum and design with margin, especially when switching inductive loads.

How much current can the 2060K handle?

It is rated for 60 A of continuous drain current, with power dissipation limited to 64 W. Real-world capability depends on your heatsinking and ambient temperature.

What package does the 2060K come in?

It is listed in TO-252. Verify the pinout of the specific variant, as one outline can carry different pin assignments.

What can I use to replace the 2060K?

This page lists 17 candidate equivalents matched on electrical ratings and package. Any replacement should meet or exceed the original voltage, current and dissipation figures and use a compatible drive level.
