VN1550 N-Channel Enhancement-Mode Vertical DMOS FETs Ordering Information BVDSS / BVDGS RDS(ON) (max) ID(ON) (min) Order Number / Package 500V 60Ω 150mA VN1550NW Die * Die in wafer form. Features Advanced DMOS Technology ❏ Free from secondary breakdown These enhancement-mode (normally-off) transistors utilize a vertical DMOS structure and Supertex’s well-proven silicon-gate manufacturing process. This combination produces devices with the power handling capabilities of bipolar transistors and with the high input impedance and positive temperature coefficient inherent in MOS devices. Characteristic of all MOS structures, these devices are free from thermal runaway and thermally-induced secondary breakdown. ❏ Low power drive requirement ❏ Ease of paralleling ❏ Low CISS and fast switching speeds ❏ Excellent thermal stability ❏ Integral Source-Drain diode Supertex’s vertical DMOS FETs are ideally suited to a wide range of switching and amplifying applications where high breakdown voltage, high input impedance, low input capacitance, and fast switching speeds are desired. ❏ High input impedance and high gain ❏ Complementary N- and P-channel devices Applications ❏ Motor controls ❏ Converters ❏ Amplifiers ❏ Switches ❏ Power supply circuits ❏ Drivers (relays, hammers, solenoids, lamps, memories, displays, bipolar transistors, etc.) Absolute Maximum Ratings Drain-to-Source Voltage BVDSS Drain-to-Gate Voltage BVDGS Gate-to-Source Voltage ± 20V Operating and Storage Temperature Soldering Temperature* -55°C to +150°C 300°C * Distance of 1.6 mm from case for 10 seconds. 01/14/02 Supertex Inc. does not recommend the use of its products in life support applications and will not knowingly sell its products for use in such applications unless it receives an adequate "products liability indemnification insurance agreement."
