We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "DMOS",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Power amplifier preserves audio quality from
STMicroelectronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "STMicroelectronics' STA510F amplifier preserves the full audio quality of the PWM input signal, providing a cost-effective output stage for demanding but price- sensitive
applications".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Motor drive IC incorporates translator circuitry from
Allegro MicroSystems Europe: "The built-in translator circuitry makes the A4983 very easy to operate, and requires only two control lines compared with eight or more for competing devices".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Intersil
concerning its ISL8540 and ISL8560
- take a look at Switching regulators protect against spikes
which says: "High-efficiency 2A integrated FET step-down DC/DC switching regulators support wide operating input voltages and can handle transient spikes up to 100V".
Take a look also at the news release from Allegro MicroSystems Europe, Two motor drivers come together,
as well as Convertor chip claims standby savings from Advanced Analogic Technologies,
and Switch interface needs no sense resistor from Allegro MicroSystems Europe.
