Description
These very high voltage N-channel Power
MOSFETs are 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.

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.
