00 — Overview

What the AOD409 does

The AOD409/AOI409 are P-Channel Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistors available in DPAK, IPAK, TO-252, and TO-251A packages. These devices feature a -60 V drain-source breakdown voltage, a maximum continuous drain current of -26 A, and a static drain-source on-resistance between 32 and 55 mΩ. The component includes a body diode with a reverse recovery time of 40 to 50 ns. Engineers typically select this MOSFET for high current load applications requiring excellent thermal resistance and low gate charge. The part operates across a junction temperature range of -55 to 175 °C.
