Dual Channel MOSFETs simplify synchronous buck designs.

Press Release Summary:

Comprising high-side control MOSFET (CH-1) and low-side synchronous MOSFET (CH-2), AP6950GYT comes in 3 mm² square PMPAK®3x3 and is optimized for synchronous buck applications. This asymmetric, dual N-channel enhancement mode power MOSFET offers Drain-Source breakdown voltage (BVDSS) of 30 V for both channels and on-resistance of 18 mΩ for CH-1 and 10.5 mΩ for CH-2. Targeting synchronous buck DC/DC converter power designs, MOSFETs are RoHS compliant and halogen free.

Original Press Release:

Dual Channel MOSFETs from Advanced Power Electronics Corp. Simplify Synchronous Buck Design

Low on-resistance; rugged design

San Jose, CA…Advanced Power Electronics Corp. (USA), a leading Taiwanese manufacturer of MOS power semiconductors for DC-DC power conversion applications, has launched an asymmetric-dual N-channel enhancement mode power MOSFET targeting synchronous buck dc/dc converter power designs.

Packaged in a small 3mm square PMPAK®3x3,  the AP6950GYT comprises a “high-side” control MOSFET (CH-1) and a “low-side” synchronous MOSFET (CH-2), providing a compact solution optimised for synchronous buck applications.  Drain-Source breakdown voltage (BVDSS) for both channels is 30V, while on-resistance is low at 18mΩ (CH-1) and 10.5mΩ (CH-2)

Comments Ralph Waggitt, President/CEO, Advanced Power Electronics Corp. (USA): “Our MOSFETs provide the designer with cost-effective performance whilst retaining the best combination of fast switching, ruggedized device design, and low on resistance.”

Devices are RoHS-compliant and halogen-free; more data is available at
