Power MOSFET conduction loss is:
Equation 11
PCON = lR2 MS × RDS(ON)(70° C) = 0.21 × 0.756 = 0.159W
Where the power MOSFET chosen is the STF9NM50N (see datasheet Section 11:
References and related materials: 3.) and its RDS(on) for 70 °C is:
Equation 12
RDS(ON)(° C) = RDS(ON)(° C) × 1.35= 0.56 × 1.35= 0.756Ω
Power MOSFET switching losses can be approximately calculated (turn OFF time was
measured 120 ns - see Figure 19):

The total power loss on the power MOSFET is 1.839 W, so the heat sink can be calculated
from following equation:
Equation 14

RthJC + RthCH + RthHA
And maximum heat sink-to-ambient resistance is:

The heat sink used in the power MOSFET on the STEVAL-ILL013V1 has a thermal
resistance of 13.5 °C / W, and therefore this heat sink is optimized for this design.
The last power component remaining to be calculated is the power diode. The diode
conducts during the OFF time, and therefore its average current is:
