Schottky Barrier Diodes and MOSFETs for Wireless Power Transfers
Toshiba has today announced an expansion of its line-up of small-signal, medium-power Schottky barrier diodes and MOSFETs that are especially suitable for wireless power transfer applications. The range of devices covers single and dual n- and p-channel MOSFETs as well as SBDs. The miniature devices are optimised to meet the low power consumption and compact form factor demands of wireless charging applications for portable, battery-powered devices such as mobile phones, digital cameras and video recorders, tablet computers and notebook PCs.
AmonToshiba’s latest single and dual SBDs are rated for reverse voltages of 30V and feature very low forward voltage ratings down to just 0.45V. Ultra-miniature packaging options range from USC (SOD-323) with dimensions of 2.5mm x 1.25mm x 0.9mm to CST2B options that measure just 1.2mm x 0.8mm x 0.6mm.
Applications for the new MOSFETs and diodes include load switching, low-voltage rectification, bridge circuits and reverse current protection.
