Description
S(3)
AM15572v1_no_tab
The new MDmesh™ M6 technology incorporates the most recent advancements to
the well-known and consolidated MDmesh family of SJ MOSFETs.
STMicroelectronics builds on the previous generation of MDmesh devices through its
new M6 technology, which combines excellent RDS(on) per area improvement with
one of the most effective switching behaviors available, as well as a user-friendly
experience for maximum end-application efficiency.
