Advanced HEXFET® Power MOSFETs from International Rectifier
utilize advanced processing techniques to achieve extremely low on-
resistance per silicon area. This benefit, combined with the fast
switching speed and ruggedized device design that HEXFET power
MOSFETs are well known for, provides the designer with an extremely
efficient and reliable device for use in a wide variety of applications.
The D2Pak is a surface mount power package capable of accommodating
die sizes up to HEX-4. It provides the highest power capability and the
lowest possible on-resistance in any existing surface mount package. The
D2Pak is suitable for high current applications because of its low internal
connection resistance and can dissipate up to 2.0W in a typical surface
mount application.
The through-hole version (IRF520VL) is available for low-profile applications.
