IRFP460
N-CHANNEL 500V - 0.22Ω - 18.4A TO-247
PowerMesh™II MOSFET
■ TYPICAL R
DS
(on) = 0.22Ω
■ EXTREMELY HIGH dv/dt CAPABILITY
■ 100% AVALANCHE TESTED
■ NEW HIGH VOLTAGE BENCHMARK
■ GATE CHARGE MINIMIZED
DESCRIPTION
The PowerMESH
™II is the evolution of the first
generation of MESH OVERLAY
™. The layout re-
finements introduced greatly improve the Ron*area
figure of merit while keeping the device at the lead-
ing edge for what concerns swithing speed, gate
charge and ruggedness.
APPLICATIONS
■ SWITH MODE LOW POWER SUPPLIES
(SMPS)
■ HIGH CURRENT, HIGH SPEED SWITCHING
■ DC-AC CONVERTERS FOR WELDING
EQUIPMENT AND UNINTERRUPTIBLE
POWER SUPPLIES AND MOTOR DRIVES
ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS
(•)Pulse width limited by safe operating area
