IRF710
Data Sheet June 1999
2.0A, 400V, 3.600 Ohm, N-Channel Power
MOSFET
This N-Channel enhancement mode silicon gate power field
effect transistor is an advanced power MOSFET designed,
tested, and guaranteed to withstand a specified level of
energy inthe breakdown avalanche mode of operation. All of
these power MOSFETs are designed for applications such
as switching regulators, switching converters, motor drivers,
relay drivers, and drivers for high power bipolar switching
transistors requiring high speed and low gate drive power.
They can be operated directly from integrated circuits.
Formerly developmental type TA17444.
