ASD Thyristor

The ASD (Application Specific Devices) technology is a unique vertical integrated power technology designed in a full planar process. Its masking process is applied on both sides of the chip offering new design possibilities that are not available with epitaxial base or horizontal architecture. The ASD technology brings significant advantages to the medium power area:

	Improved reliability thanks to a full planar technology that provides outstanding ruggedness to the device
	Enhanced performance that results from dedicated design to the application. For instance EMI, filtering skills are greater than with discrete circuitry
