DESCRIPTION
Using the latest high voltage MESH OVERLAY™
process, STMicroelectronics has designed an ad-
vanced family of power MOSFETs with outstanding
performance. The new patented STrip layout cou-
pled with the Company’s proprietary edge termina-
tion structure, makes it suitable in coverters for
lighting applications.
