This application specific MOSFET is the Third generation
of STMicroelectronis unique "Single Feature Size™"
strip-based process. The resulting transistor shows the
best trade-off between on-resistance and gate charge.
When used as high and low side in buck regulators, it
gives the best performance in terms of both conduction
and switching losses. This is extremely important for
motherboards where fast switching and high efficiency
are of paramount importance.
