Single N-Channel, 2.5V Specified PowerTrench
MOSFET
General Description
This N-Channel 2.5V specified MOSFET is produced
using Fairchild Semiconductor’s advanced Power
Trench process that has been especially tailored to
minimize on-state resistance and yet maintain low gate
charge for superior switching performance.
These devices have been designed to offer exceptional
power dissipation in a very small footprint package.
Applications
• DC/DC converter
• Load switch
