Overview
The ST13003 is a high voltage fast-switching NPN power transistor manufactured by STMicroelectronics. This transistor is designed using high voltage multi-epitaxial planar technology, which enhances its switching speeds and medium to high voltage capability. It features a cellular emitter structure with planar edge termination, contributing to its high switching speeds and wide Reverse Bias Safe Operating Area (RBSOA).
