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 STBV68 is designed for use in compact fluorescent lamp application.
