Lateral enhancement-mode MOSFETs
switchable. They provide an easy way to implement a simple, low-cost, high-voltage
power current source rather than trying to design your own. Voltage operation for a typ-
ical device could range from about 6 volts right up to the breakdown voltage of the
device (more than 800 volts). For lower voltage-rated devices, this typically extends
down to about 3.5 volts, all the way up to 450 volts. The devices typically offer a very
high output impedance, as well as a high bandwidth of several hundred MHz.
IXYS also offers a large range of rugged N- and P-channel, power MOSFETs based on
its own technologies (HiPerFET™ ...
