Transistor/Schottky Co-Packaged Pair Requires 88% Less PCB Space
Hauppauge, NY . Provided in the miniature 3mm x 2mm micro leaded package (MLP), a new series of MOSFET/Schottky and Bipolar/Schottky combination products from Zetex offer high efficiency operation and significant board space savings of 88% over alternative SM8 packaged products.
These six transistor/Schottky diode pairings represent the first devices to be made available from the Zetex Miniature Package Power Solutions (MPPS(TM)) range.
Through a reduction in thermal and electrical resistance, the 0.9mm high MLP832 packaged products are characterized by resultant high power dissipation and/or lower temperature operation. As a result, current handling per PCB area can be increased by a significant factor - a minimum threefold increase is possible.
One NPN and three PNP bipolar combination products are offered, featuring an ultra low saturation transistor and a true 1A DC rated, 40V fast switching Schottky barrier diode. The bipolar transistor's on-state voltage - VCE(sat), is typically 140mV at 1A, and the range includes 12, 20 and 40 volt rated PNP parts and a 20V NPN.
Low gate drive and low on-resistance are features of the two MOSFET/Schottky combinations. Fast switching 30V N- and P-channel devices are packaged with the same extremely low VF Schottky to suit DC-DC conversion, battery charge circuits, MOSFET gate drive charge control, and low voltage power management functions.
The 1,000 piece price $0.29 each. Delivery is quoted at 4-6 weeks in production volumes.
