DESCRIPTION
The MDmeshTM
is a new revolutionary MOSFET
technology that associates the Multiple Drain pro-
cess with the Company's PowerMESHTM horizontal
layout. The resulting product has an outstanding low
on-resistance, impressively high dv/dt and excellent
avalanche characteristics. The adoption of the
Company's proprietary strip technique yields overall
dynamic performance that is significantly better than
that of similar competition's products.
APPLICATIONS
The MDmeshTM family is very suitable for increasing
power density of high voltage converters allowing
system miniaturization and higher efficiencies.

PROTECTION FEATURES OF GATE-TO-SOURCE ZENER DIODES
The built-in back-to-back Zener diodes have specifically been designed to enhance not only the device's
ESD capability, but also to make them safely absorb possible voltage transients that may occasionally be
applied from gate to source. In this respect the Zener voltage is appropriate to achieve an efficient and
cost-effective intervention to protect the device's integrity. These integrated Zener diodes thus avoid the
usage of external components.
