technology that associates the Multiple Drain process with the Company’s PowerMESH™ horizontal
layout. The resulting product has an outstanding low
on-resistance, impressively high dv/dt and excellent
avalanche characteristics. The adoption of the
Company’s proprierati strip technique yields ov erall
dynamic performance that is significantly better than
that of similar completition’s products.
APPLICATIONS
The MD mesh™ f amily is very suita blr for in crease
the power density of high voltage converters allowing system miniaturization and higher efficiencies.
