N-CHANNEL 500V - 0.75 Ω - 8.6 A TO-220/TO-220FP
PowerMesh™ MOSFET
■ TYPICAL R
DS
(on) = 0.75 Ω
■ EXTREMELY HIGH dv/dt CAPABILITY
■ 100% AVALANCHE TESTED
■ VERY LOW INTRINSIC CAPACITANCES
■ GATE CHARGE MINIMIZED
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 proprieraty edge termination structure, gives the lowest R
DS(on)
per area,
exceptional avalanche and dv/dt capabilities and
unrivalled gate charge and switching characteristics.
