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 ST93003 is expressly designed for a new

solution to be used in compact fluorescent lamps,

where it is coupled with the ST83003, its

complementary NPN transistor.
