N-Channel MOSFET
Third generation Power MOSFETs from Vishay provide the
designer with the best combination of fast switching,
ruggedized device design, low on-resistance and
cost-effectiveness.
The D2PAK (TO-263) is a surface mount power package
capable of accommodating die size up to HEX-4. It provides
the highest power capability and the lowest possible
on-resistance in any existing surface mount package. The
D2PAK (TO-263) is suitable for high current applications
because of its low internal connection resistance and can
dissipate up to 2.0 W in a typical surface mount application.
