General Description
This enhancement-mode (normally-off) transistor utilizes a
vertical DMOS structure and Supertex’s well-proven, silicon-
gate manufacturing process. This combination produces a
device with the power handling capabilities of bipolar transistors
and the high input impedance and positive temperature
coefficient inherent in MOS devices. Characteristic of all
MOS structures, this device is free from thermal runaway and
thermally-induced secondary breakdown.
Supertex’s vertical DMOS FETs are ideally suited to a wide
range of switching and amplifying applications where very
low threshold voltage, high breakdown voltage, high input
impedance, low input capacitance, and fast switching speeds
are desired.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
Parameter Value
Drain-to-source voltage BVDSS
Drain-to-gate voltage BVDGS
Gate-to-source voltage ±30V
Operating and storage temperature -55OC to +150OC
Soldering temperature* 300OC
Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which damage to
the device may occur. Functional operation under these conditions is not
implied. Continuous operation of the device at the absolute rating level may
affect device reliability. All voltages are referenced to device ground.
