SuperMESH & MDmesh MOSFETs
A wide product series for lighting applications

The SuperMESH family is able to join together cost effectiveness, high performance and ruggedness.
Every aspect of the application, including self-oscillating or driven CFL, PFC or half bridge switches for Ballast, can be excellently covered thanks to the very wide range of products and their outstanding features:

	Built-in back-to-back Zener diodes between gate and source;
	Excellent dv/dt capability.

The availability of B_VDSS* fractions like 450V, 550V and 650V devices and dual/complementary pairs like STS1DNC45 make this product series essential to lighting designers. The comparison between our SuperMESH and competition devices in typical
stages such PFC and Half Bridge, highlights better performances at turn-off.

MDmesh For Lighting

As efficiency demands rise, the combination of advanced MDmesh process technology with innovative packages provide:

	The lowest RDS(on) for minimum power dissipation;
	The lowest gate charge for minimum switching losses;
	dV/dt shoot-through immunity;
	Improved thermal management.

The MDmesh technology is particularly suited to PFC stages of HF Ballast, where it is possible to achieve a reduction of THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) by using smaller devices. Furthermore, the possibility of having the fast diode on-board (FDmesh) enables excellent performances especially in full bridge configurations (i.e. HID). This technology results particularly ideal for PFC stages in HF Ballast or LED drivers, where it is possible to achieve a good reduction of THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) by using smaller devices, with consequent space saving.

MOSFETs Ideal For Lighting

SuperMESH and MDmesh product families are the right designer’s instruments to enhance the application features, increasing performance and reducing as much as possible the energy losses. Comparison between SuperMESH vs. competition in a PFC stage:
