Description

W20NM50 is N-CHANNEL, 500V – 0.20Ω – 20A, MDmesh Power MOSFET.

An N-channel MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) is a type of field effect transistor (FET) that uses an N-type semiconductor material as the conducting channel to control the flow of current.

When a positive voltage is applied to the gate terminal, it attracts electrons to the channel, creating an inversion layer and allowing current to flow between the source and drain terminals.

N-channel MOSFETs are widely used in a variety of electronic applications due to their high input impedance, fast switching speeds, and low power consumption. They are commonly used as switches, amplifiers, and voltage regulators.

The MDmesh is a new revolutionary MOSFET technology that associates the Multiple Drain process with the Company’s PowerMESH™ 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 MDmesh™ family is very suitable for increasing power density of high voltage converters allowing system miniaturization and higher efficiencies.
