The SuperMESH™ series is obtained through an
extreme optimization of ST’s well established
strip-based PowerMESH™ layout. In addition to
pushing on-resistance significantly down, special
care is taken to ensure a very good dv/dt
capability for the most demanding applications.
Such series complements ST full range of high
voltage MOSFETs including revolutionary
MDmesh™ products.

1.1 Protection features of gate-to-source zener diodes
The built-in back-to-back Zener diodes have specifically been designed to enhance not only
the device’s ESD capability, but also to make them safely absorb possible voltage transients
that may occasionally be applied from gate to source. In this respect the Zener voltage is
appropriate to achieve an efficient and cost-effective intervention to protect the device’s
integrity. These integrated Zener diodes thus avoid the usage of external components.

In order to meet environmental requirements, ST offers these devices in ECOPACK®
packages. These packages have a Lead-free second level interconnect . The category of
second level interconnect is marked on the package and on the inner box label, in
compliance with JEDEC Standard JESD97. The maximum ratings related to soldering
conditions are also marked on the inner box label. ECOPACK is an ST trademark.
ECOPACK specifications are available at: www.st.com
