IXFN23N100

The IXFN23N100 is a part of the IXE bipolar transistor product family used in a variety of applications.

A field-effect transistor (FET) is a type of transistor that operates using an electric field to control the flow of current. The IXFN23N100 is a single FET which has two stable operating states - either on or off - and is best used for switching control and signal applications. In comparison to bipolar transistors, FETs are more advantageous because they are simpler to design a circuit around and have fewer voltage drops than their bipolar counterparts.

The IXFN23N100 is specifically designed for switching applications, offering a higher current rating than some devices of the same size, as well as a low input capacitance. It features a drain-gate standoff voltage rating of -0.9 to +20 volts, allowing for up to 20 volts of gate-source voltage. The device is also RoHS compliant and certified to meet JEDEC reliability standards.

The IXFN23N100 operates using a type of voltage control called “Floating Gate”. This type of control adds an extra, unconnected (floating) gate between the source and drain of the transistor. When the voltage of the gate is changed, current is allowed to flow through the transistor. Floating gate provides significant power savings and improves performance in systems that require fast switching and high-precision control.

The IXFN23N100 can be used in a variety of applications, including power conversion, communications, industrial control, and automotive electronics. Its high temperature-resistance, low leakage current, and high current-handling capability make it an ideal choice for these types of applications. In addition, it can be used in high power switching circuits, as it can withstand large current spikes without damage.

The IXFN23N100 is an excellent choice for applications that require high current, precision control, and fast switching. Its floating gate design gives it excellent control and power savings, making it a great choice for a variety of applications.
