Working Principle

A MOSFET is a voltage-controlled field-effect transistor that can be used in amplifying or switching applications. MOSFETs use a gate terminal to control operation and can be used to boost currents and switch loads with low power loss. The gate terminal is connected to a voltage source that controls the switch, allowing for efficient and fast switching.

The STL12HN65M2 is a n-channel enhancement mode MOSFET providing self-protected and low on-state resistances. It is built using STMicroelectronics’ proprietary MDmesh technology, which combines very low on-state resistance with a low gate charge and fast switching speed. This combination makes the MOSFET ideal for applications such as DC-DC converters, motor control, UPS, solar inverters and welding applications.
