Description
18N50 is 500V, 18A, N-Channel MOSFET Transistor.
A 500V, 18A N-channel MOSFET refers to a specific type of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) that operates as an N-channel device and is capable of handling high voltage and current levels.
Key specifications:
1. Voltage Rating: The MOSFET can handle a maximum voltage of 500 volts. This rating determines the maximum voltage that can be applied across the drain and source terminals of the transistor.
2. Current Rating: The MOSFET is capable of carrying a maximum current of 18 amperes. This rating defines the maximum continuous current that can flow through the drain and source terminals.
Features:
1. Drain Current ID= 18A@ TC=25℃
2. Drain Source Voltage : VDSS= 500V(Min)
3. Static Drain-Source On-Resistance
4. RDS(on) = 0.32Ω(Max)
5. Fast Switching
N-channel MOSFETs are widely used in various applications such as power supplies, motor control, lighting systems, and high-power switching applications. They offer advantages such as low on-resistance, high efficiency, and fast switching speed.
