The SuperFREDMesh™ series is obtained
through an extreme optimization of ST’s well
established strip-based PowerMESH™ layout. In
addition to pushing on-resistance significantly
down, special care is taken to ensure a very good
dv/dt capability for the most demanding
applications. Such series complements ST full
range of high voltage MOSFETs including
revolutionary MDmesh™ products.
ISD = 26 A, di/dt = 100 A/µs

The built-in back-to-back Zener diodes have specifically been designed to enhance not only
the device’s ESD capability, but also to make them safely absorb possible voltage transients
that may occasionally be applied from gate to source. In this respect the Zener voltage is
appropriate to achieve an efficient and cost-effective intervention to protect the device’s
integrity. These integrated Zener diodes thus avoid the usage of external components.

In order to meet environmental requirements, ST offers these devices in ECOPACK®
packages. These packages have a Lead-free second level interconnect . The category of
second level interconnect is marked on the package and on the inner box label, in
compliance with JEDEC Standard JESD97. The maximum ratings related to soldering
conditions are also marked on the inner box label. ECOPACK is an ST trademark.
ECOPACK specifications are available at: www.st.com
