Self-Protected MOSFET comes in 2.3 x 2.8 mm SOT23F package.
Press Release Summary:
Integrating ESD, over voltage, over current, and over temperature protection into one package, ZXMS6004FF protects itself and load while helping to reduce component count, PCB size, and overall system cost in automotive as well as industrial applications. This IntelliFET(TM) low side MOSFET has on-state resistance of 500 mW, continuous current rating of 1 A, and is qualified to AECQ101 standard. With logic level input of 3.3 or 5 V, MOSFET can be driven directly from MCU outputs.
Original Press Release:
Diodes Incorporated Announces World's Smallest Self- Protected MOSFET
Addition to IntelliFETTM Product Range Reduces Board Space by 85% DALLAS--Dec. 15, 2008--Adding to its IntelliFETTM product range, Diodes Incorporated has introduced the world's smallest fully self protected low side MOSFET. Packaged in the 2.3mm x 2.8mm footprint 'flat' SOT23F package, the ZXMS6004FF takes 85% less board space than incumbent 7.3mm x 6.7mm footprint SOT223 packaged parts. Despite its miniature format, the SOT23 flat package has superior thermal performance that enables the ZXMS6004FF to deliver a package power density three times that of its much larger packaged counterpart. Additionally, with an on-state resistance of just 500mW, this latest IntelliFETTM also ensures that power dissipation is kept to an absolute minimum. Integrating ESD, over voltage, over current and over temperature protection into a single thermally efficient package, the ZXMS6004FF protects both itself and the load and will help to reduce component count, pcb size and overall system cost in a range of automotive and industrial applications. The device's ultra small form factor will also enable space-restricted applications to integrate self-protected MOSFETs for the very first time. The device has a continuous current rating of 1A and is qualified to the AECQ101 standard, being tolerant of 60V load dump transients. With a logic level input of either 3.3V or 5V, the ZXMS6004FF can be driven directly from microcontroller outputs.
