Description
This very high voltage N-channel Power
MOSFET is designed using MDmesh™ K5
technology based on an innovative proprietary
vertical structure. The result is a dramatic
reduction in on-resistance and ultra-low gate
charge for applications requiring superior power
density and high efficiency.

Time related is defined as a constant equivalent capacitance giving the same charging time as Coss when VDS
increases from 0 to 80% VDSS.
(2)
Energy related is defined as a constant equivalent capacitance giving the same stored energy as Coss when
VDS increases from 0 to 80% VDSS.

The built-in back-to-back Zener diodes have been specifically designed to enhance the
ESD capability of the device. The Zener voltage is appropriate for efficient and cost-
effective intervention to protect the device integrity. These integrated Zener diodes thus
eliminate the need for external components.
