N-Channel Logic Level Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistor
BSS138W — N-Channel Logic Level Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistor
General Description
These N-Channel enhancement mode field effect
transistor. These products have been designed to
minimize on-state resistance while provide rugged,
reliable, and fast switching performance.These products are particularly suited for low voltage, low current
applications such as small servo motor control, power
MOSFET gate drivers, and other switching applications.
