Vishay Intertechnology Announces New N-Channel TrenchFET Power MOSFET
Vishay Intertechnology today released a new n-channel TrenchFET power MOSFET in the thermally enhanced PowerPAK SO-8 package that extends the company’s ThunderFET technology to 150 V. The Vishay Siliconix SiR872ADP offers low on-resistance of 18 mΩ at 10 V and 23 mΩ at 7.5 V, while maintaining low gate charge, 31 nC typical at 10 V and 22.8 nC typical at 7.5 V.
The The SiR872ADP provides a low on-resistance times gate charge − a key figure of merit for MOSFETs in DC/DC converter applications − of 563 mΩ-nC at 10 V and 524 mΩ-nC at 7.5 V. The device’s FOM reduces conduction and switching losses to improve total system efficiency. By providing higher performance than multiple previous generation devices, the MOSFET can potentially reduce overall component count and simplify designs.
The SiR872ADP is 100 % Rg- and UIS-tested, halogen-free according to the JEDEC JS709A definition, and compliant to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU. The device joins the recently released 100 V SiR846ADP and SiR870ADP and 80 V SiR826ADP ThunderFET MOSFETs, offering designers a variety of medium-voltage options in the PowerPAK SO-8 package. Vishay addresses the needs of all power conversion applications through its ThunderFET, TrenchFET Gen IV, and E/D Series MOSFETs.
Samples and production quantities of the new MOSFET are available now, with lead times of 13 to 14 weeks for large orders.
