SOT-32
Description
The device is manufactured using high voltage multi-epitaxial planar technology for high switching speeds and medium voltage capability. It uses a cellular emitter structure with planar edge termination to enhance switching speeds while maintaining the wide RBSOA. The device is expressly designed for a new solution to be used in pact fluorescent lamps, where it is coupled with the BULT3P3, its plementary PNP transistor. Figure 1.
