Typical specifications include Drain-Source Voltage (VDS) of 30V. Gate-Source Voltage (VGS) of +/- 20V. The continuous Drain Current (ID) depends on the package and thermal conditions, but usually ranges from 7A to 10A. The RDS(on) is very low, in the range of 10-15 mOhms at VGS = 10V, ensuring low power loss during switching. It usually comes in a PDFN3x3 package. Its logic-level gate drive allows for easy interface with microcontrollers and other control circuits. The Halogen-Free feature means it complies with environmental regulations, making it suitable for green electronics applications.
