DESCRIPTION
Fifth generation Power MOSFETs from Vishay utilize
advanced processing techniques to achieve extremely low
on-resistance per silicon area. This benefit, combined with
the fast switching speed and ruggedized device design that
these Power MOSFETs are well known for, provides the
designer with an extremely efficient and reliable device for
use in a wide variety of applications.
The TO-247 package is preferred for commercial-industrial
applications where higher power levels preclude the use of
TO-220 devices. The TO-247 is similar but superior to the
earlier TO-218 package because of its isolated mounting
hole.
