Dual N-Channel Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistor
General Description
Features
These N-Channel enhancement mode power field effect
transistors are produced using Fairchild's proprietary, high cell
density, DMOS technology. This very high density process is
especially tailored to minimize on-state resistance, provide
superior switching performance, and withstand high energy
pulses in the avalanche and commutation modes. These
devices are particularly suited for low voltage applications such
as DC motor control and DC/DC conversion where fast
switching, low in-line power loss, and resistance to transients
are needed.
2.0A, 50V. RDS(ON) = 0.3Ω @ VGS = 10V
High density cell design for extremely low RDS(ON).
High power and current handling capability in a widely used
surface mount package.
Dual MOSFET in surface mount package.

Notes:
1. RθJA is the sum of the junction-to-case and case-to-ambient thermal resistance where the case thermal reference is defined as the solder mounting surface of the drain pins. RθJC is guaranteed by
design while RθCA is determined by the user's board design.
