Microchip Technology TC8020
The TC8020 consists of six pairs of high-voltage, low-threshold N-channel and P-channel MOSFETs in a 56-lead VQFN package. The complimentary, high-speed, high-voltage, gate-clamped N-channel and P-channel MOSFET pairs utilize an advanced vertical DMOS structure and a well-proven silicon-gate manufacturing process. This combination produces a device with the power handling capabilities of bipolar transistors and the high input impedance and positive temperature coefficient inherent in MOS devices.FEATURES

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
All MOSFETs have integrated the output drain high-voltage diodes, gate-to-source resistors, and gate-to-source Zener diode clamps which are desired for high-voltage pulser applications. Characteristic of all MOS structures, these devices are free from thermal runaway and thermally induced secondary breakdown. Microchip’s vertical DMOS FETs are ideally suited to a wide range of switching and amplifying applications where very low threshold voltage, high breakdown voltage, high input impedance, low input and output capacitance, and fast switching speeds are desired.
