VBsemi Elec · MOSFETs · TO-252

AP18N20GH-VB from VBsemi Elec, in a TO-252. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 G input Gate of the N-channel MOSFET, rated for a gate-source voltage of ±20 V per the absolute maximum ratings.
2 D passive Drain of the MOSFET, rated at 200 V drain-source voltage and carrying the drain tab; continuous drain current is 25 A at TC = 125 °C.
3 S passive Source of the MOSFET, with continuous source (diode conduction) current rated at 28 A.
