Logic Level Trench MOSFETs are optimized for efficiency.
May 1, 2009 -
Available in TO-220, D2PAK, and TO-262 packages, logic level gate drive trench HEXFET® power MOSFETs offer voltages from 40-100 V and can be driven from MCU or weak battery to deliver improved efficiency at light load conditions. On-state resistance of 1.7-4.5 mW @ 4.5 Vgs promotes thermal efficiency, while max current rating of 195 A provide more guard band from unwanted transients. Solutions are qualified to industrial grade and moisture sensitivity level 1.
IR's New Logic Level Trench MOSFETs Deliver Benchmark Efficiency and Higher Current Rating
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. - International Rectifier, IR® (NYSE: IRF), a world leader in power management technology, today introduced a new range of logic level gate drive trench HEXFET® power MOSFETs featuring benchmark on-state resistance (RDS(on)) and high package current rating for high power DC motors and power tools, industrial batteries and power supply applications.
Utilizing IR's latest trench technology, the new family of benchmark MOSFETs offers a very low RDS(on) at 4.5V Vgs to significantly improve thermal efficiency. Additionally, the devices' higher current rating provides more guard band from unwanted transients and reduces part count in parallel-type topologies where several MOSFETs share high current. With a package current rating of up to 195A, the TO-220, D2PAK and TO-262 packages deliver more than 60 percent improvement over typical package ratings, while the 7-lead D2PAK further reduces RDS(on) by as much as 16 percent compared to the standard D2PAK to provide an even more robust option.
"Featuring benchmark RDS(on) , the new logic level gate drive trench MOSFETs can be driven from a microcontroller or weak battery to deliver improved efficiency at light load conditions, making them ideally suited for high current DC-DC switching and DC motor drive applications," said Brian LaValle, marketing manager for IR's Power Management Devices Business Unit.
The new family of logic level trench MOSFETs provides a voltage range of 40V to 100V. Qualified to industrial grade and moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1) the devices are available in all standard power packages including TO-220, D2PAK, TO-262, as well as a 7-lead D2PAK. The devices are offered lead free and are RoHS compliant.
