The RFV10N50BE is an N-Channel fast switching MOSFET transistor that is designed for switching regulators, inverters and motor drivers. The device is a monolithic structure incorporating a high voltage, high current MOSFET, a control MOSFET and ESD protection diodes. As indicated in the symbol to the right, the turn-on of the main MOSFET is controlled by Gate 1 (G1). The control MOSFET, controlled by Gate 2 (G2), is distributed throughout the structure. Gate 2 provides a very low impedance and inductive path to rapidly discharge the gate of the main MOSFET. Gate 2 affords very fast turn-off (typically less than 25ns) when desired. A separate return connection, Source Kelvin (SK), is supplied for the gate drive circuit to avoid voltage induced transients from the output circuit during switching. The  RFV10N50BE can be operated directly from integrated circuits.
