This device is an N-channel Zener-protected
Power MOSFET developed using
STMicroelectronics’ SuperMESH™ technology,
achieved through optimization of ST’s well
established strip-based PowerMESH™ layout. In
addition to a significant reduction in onresistance, this device is designed to ensure a
high level of dv/dt capability for the most
demanding applications.

The built-in back-to-back Zener diodes have specifically been designed to enhance not only
the device’s ESD capability, but also to make them safely absorb possible voltage transients
that may occasionally be applied from gate to source. In this respect the Zener voltage is
appropriate to achieve an efficient and cost-effective intervention to protect the device’s
integrity. These integrated Zener diodes thus avoid the usage of external components.
