DESCRIPTION

Using the latest high voltage MESH OVERLAY™ process, STMicroelectronics has designed an advanced family of power MOSFETs with outstanding performances. The new patent pending strip layout coupled with the Company’s proprietary edge termination structure, gives the lowest RDS(on) per area, exceptional avalanche and dv/dt capabilities and unrivalled gate charge and switching characteristics.

■ TYPICAL RDS(on) = 1.2 Ω

■ EXTREMELY HIGH dv/dt CAPABILITY

■ 100 AVALANCHE TESTED

■ VERY LOW INTRINSIC CAPACITANCES

■ GATE CHARGE MINIMIZED

APPLICATIONS

■ SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLIES (SMPS)

■ DC-AC CONVERTERS FOR WELDING EQUIPMENT AND UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLIES AND MOTOR DRIVE

■ HIGH CURRENT, HIGH SPEED SWITCHING
