DESCRIPTION
The UTC 18N50 is an N-channel enhancement mode power
MOSFET using UTC’s advanced planar stripe and DMOS
technology to provide perfect performance.
This technology can withstand high energy pulse in the
avalanche and commutation mode. It can provide minimum
on-state resistance and high switching speed.
This device is generally applied in active power factor
correction and high efficient switched mode power supplies.
