DESCRIPTION 1 1
Using the latest high voltage MESH OVERLAY
process, STMicroelectronics has designed an TO-220 TO-220FP
advanced family of power MOSFETs with
outstanding performances. The new patent
pending strip layout coupled with the Company’s
proprietary edge termination structure, gives the
lowest RDS(on) per area, exceptional avalanche
and dv/dt capabilities and unrivalled gate charge INTERNAL SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
and switching characteristics.

APPLICATIONS
■ HIGH CURRENT, HIGH SPEED SWITCHING

■ SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLIES (SMPS)

■ DC-AC CONVERTERS FOR WELDING
