Description
This high voltage N-channel Power MOSFET is
part of the MDmesh™ DM2 fast recovery diode
series. It offers very low recovery charge (Q
rr
)
and time (t
rr
) combined with low R
DS(on)
, rendering
it suitable for the most demanding high efficiency
converters and ideal for bridge topologies and
ZVS phase-shift converters.
