Aiming at 800V automotive battery management, Vishay has put a 1,500V Form A solid-state relay into a 10 x 10mm 4pin SMD-8 package. Back-to-back mosfets are used at the output to switch ac or dc voltages. VORA1150 has 1,414Vpeak repetitive isolation (and 8kV transients), and a maximum leakage of 1µA. “The 4pin design allows the device to provide a 5mm ...
SemiQ has created a line of 1,200V SiC mosfet SOT-227 modules with Rds(on) at 7.4. 15 or 34mΩ. There are six models, half have ‘GCMX’ part numbers and just have a mosfet, while the others, GCMS types, including a reverse-parallel Schottky diode. The modules “are tested beyond 1,400V and target battery chargers, photovoltaic inverters, server power supplies and energy storage ...
Toshiba has introduced six 600V power mosfets in its four-pin TO-247-4L(X) package, which has a notch between drain and source pins to increase creepage distance. A kelvin source connection is included to improve gate drive. The parts, numbered TKxxxZ60Z1, are made using the company’s DTMOSVI process, said to reduce on-resistance per unit area by approximately 13%, and reduce on-resistance x ...
Onsemi has announced vertical GaN power devices, which it said are with early access customers in 700V and 1,200V form. “Developed and manufactured at Onsemi’s fab in Syracuse, New York, Onsemi holds over 130 global patents covering a range of fundamental process, device design, manufacturing and systems innovations for vertical GaN technology,” according to the company. “Compared to commercially available ...
Toshiba has created a range of automotive-grade Zeners for surge protection in the 0.8 x 1.6mm SOD-523 package. Called the XCEZ series, they rated at 150 or 300mW (see below) and come in 20 E24 values between 5.6 and 36V. “With the electrification in the automotive industry, there is a growing necessity to prevent malfunctions caused by electrical noise,” the ...
Nexperia has four announced 100V automotive mosfets in a 12 x 12mm CCPAK1212 legged SMD package. This package saves “up to 40% PCB space compared to traditional TOLL or TOLT-packaged alternatives”, according to the company. There are bottom-cooled (CCPAK1212) and top-cooled (CCPAK1212i, pictured) versions (see table below). On-resistance is between 0.99 and 1.35mΩ, depending on the part, and a copper ...
Toshiba has launched three industrial 650V SiC mosfets in TOLL packaging, with on-resistance as low 27mΩ. “The TOLL package is a 9pin, four-terminal package designed to facilitate the use of a Kelvin connection for its signal source terminal for the gate drive,” said the company. “The surface mounting capability of the TOLL package allows for smaller parasitic impedance, which leads ...
The European electronic components distribution market is suffering from a declining automotive sector, reports DMASS Europe. The electronic components distribution industry body represents approximately 85% of the European components DTAM. DMASS said that European semiconductor distribution sales in Q2 2025 fell 14% compared to Q2 2024. Austria experiencing the steepest drop (36.6%) followed by France (20%), Germany and Ireland both ...
Magnachip Semiconductor has brought out an 80V MXT MV MOSFET, MDLT080N017RH, featuring a TOLT (TO-Leaded Top-Side Cooling) package. Unlike conventional TOLL (TO-Leadless) packages that dissipate heat through the bottom, the TOLT package is engineered to release heat directly from the top via a mounted metal heat sink. This structure reduces thermal resistance between the junction and the external environment, making ...
Irncore has introduced a series of 49 x 40mm 1kW planar transformers, designed for military, aerospace, automotive and industrial applications. Called the PL105xx family, there are designed to run at between 100 and 700kHz, and are 19.5mm tall. Operation is over -55 to +130°C. For military and aerospace use there are space-qualified variants that meet Mil-Std 981 Class S, and for ...
