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 with the high input impedance and
positive temperature coefcient 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
high breakdown voltage, high input impedance, low input
capacitance, and fast switching speeds are desired.
