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
