NDS8426A
Single N-Channel Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistor
General Description
SO-8 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 and provide superior switching performance.
These devices are particularly suited for low voltage
applications such as notebook computer power
management and other battery powered circuits where
fast switching, low in-line power loss, and resistance to
transients are needed.
