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 RDS(on) per area,
exceptional avalanche and dv/dt capabilities and
unrivalled gate charge and switching characteristics.
APPLICATIONS
■ SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLI ES ( SMPS)
■ DC-AC CONVERTERS FOR WELDING
