dvanced Power MOSFETs from APEC provide the
designer with the best combination of fast switching,
ruggedized device design, low on-resistance and cost-
effectiveness.
The TO-252 package is widely preferred for commercial-industrial
surface mount applications and suited for low voltage applications
such as DC/DC converters.
