user33711: I am currently developing a project that needs 9 led stripes, each led stripe has 5 meters, 300 leds, it consumes 60W per stripe in a total of 540W...
This are the led stripes - 5M 12W/M 24V SMD 2835
This led stripes use a 24V power supply.
The thing is I want to drive them with an arduino and PWM. What would I need to do it. I was looking for something like CAT4101 but I never dealt with so much power before and I would like your advice.
Thanks

user4143: The led strips will have their own current limiting / drivers. A couple of quick calculations:

24V at 12W is (I=P/V) 12/24 = 0.5A per meter
5 meters = 0.5*5 = 2.5A

So each strip takes 2.5A. The CAT4101 is a 1A max driver, but since it is a constant current driver it's not suitable for a strip that has its own current control built in.
I suspect each meter consists of 10 chains of 6 LEDs with a current limiting resistor or two. Out of interest, calculations:

6 LEDs at (say) 3V forward voltage would be 18V.
24 - 18 = 6 volts to drop
500mA divided by 10 chains = 50mA
R=V/I = 6 / 0.05 = 120Ω current limiting resistors.
P=I²R = 0.05²×6 = 300mW dissipated from the resistors.

Instead all you need is an N-channel MOSFET as a low-side switch that can operate with that much current and not dissipate too much heat while switching. The more you derate the MOSFET the less heatsinking it would need.
A quick look on Digikey gave a possible match of PSMN022-30PL - 30V, 30A, 27mΩ (typ) at 4.5V gate voltage.
