ary, planar, DMOS technology. This advanced
technology has been especially tailored to minimize
on-state resistance, provide superior switching
performance, and withstand high energy pulse in the
avalanche and commutation mode. These devices
are well suited for high efficiency switching DC/DC
converters, switch mode power supplies, DC-AC
converters for uninterrupted power supply and motor
control.
