DESCRIPTION
(s)
TO-220
The PowerMESHTMII is the evolution of the first
ct
generation of MESH OVERLAYTM. 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 switching speed, gate
charge and ruggedness. INTERNAL SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM
