New 25V and 30V MOSFETs for buck type DC/DC converter applications

International Rectifier has released new series of 25V and 30V N-channel trench HEXFET power MOSFETs for designing synchronous buck-type DC/DC converters and battery protection devices in computing, consumer and networking areas.


"The new MOSFETs are also offered in a Power QFN package to provide improved power density when compared with an SO-8 package while keeping the same pin-out configuration," said Stéphane Ernoux, marketing director for IR's Power Management Devices Business Unit. "Depending upon application, the dual SO-8 MOSFETs allow a 'two for one' exchange to reduce component count," he added.

Single and dual N-channel MOSFETs are available. Single devices are offered in a PQFN 5x6mm and 3x3mm package optimized for high volume production in addition to D-PAK, I-PAK and SO-8 packages while dual devices are offered in an SO-8 package. The new devices are RoHS compliant and available in Halogen free version.
