AP9579GM – P-Channel Power MOSFET – APEC

The AP9579GM is a -60 V P-Channel Enhancement Mode Power MOSFET from Advanced Power Electronics Corp. (APEC) in an SO-8 (SOP-8) surface-mount package. Available for RFQ at Pacific Component Xchange.

The AP9579GM from Advanced Power Electronics Corp. (A-POWER, branded APEC) is a P-Channel Enhancement Mode Power MOSFET supplied in a compact SO-8 (SOP-8) surface-mount package. With a drain-source breakdown voltage of -60 V (BVDSS), it is designed for efficient power switching and load-handling in space-constrained board layouts. The factory-orderable variant is typically marked AP9579GM-HF, denoting a halogen-free, RoHS-compliant build.

This MOSFET combines low on-resistance with a simple gate-drive requirement and fast switching characteristics, making it well suited to high-side switching, power-path management, and load-management circuits. The SO-8 footprint allows it to fit into dense power stages where through-hole devices cannot.

Key Features

• P-Channel Enhancement Mode Power MOSFET (per A-POWER / A-POWER datasheet)
