DESCRIPTION
This application specific Power Mosfet is the third
generation of STMicroelectronics unique "Single
Feature Size
TM"
strip-based process. The result-
ing transistor shows the best trade-off between on-
resistance and gate charge. When used as high
and low side in buck regulators, it gives the best
performance in terms of both conduction and
switching losses. This is extremely important for
motherboards where fast switching and high effi-
ciency are of paramount importance.
