IR Mosfets ideal for automotive applications
International Rectifier
Automotive-qualified power Mosfets
International Rectifier (IR) has expanded its family of automotive-qualified power Mosfets for applications requiring low on-state resistance (RDS(ON)), including on-board power supplies.
The power Mosfets are also suitable for heavy loads on internal combustion engine platforms, and micro and full hybrid platforms.
Delivering RDS(on) as low as 2.6mohm at 55V, the family of devices ranges from 40V to 100V and includes 75V offerings.
With higher voltages well suited for use in 24V truck systems, several of the devices feature the new revised maximum current ratings of up to 240A in a D2Pak-7P and 195A in a D2Pak.
International Rectifier's automotive Mosfets are subject to dynamic and static part average testing combined with 100 per cent automated wafer level visual inspection as part of the company's automotive quality initiative targeting zero defects.
AEC-Q101 qualification requires that there is no more than a 20 per cent change in RDS(on) after 1,000 temperature cycles of testing.
However, in extended testing, International Rectifier's AU Bill of Materials demonstrated a maximum RDS(on) shift of less than 10 per cent at 5,000 temperature cycles.
The devices are qualified according to AEC-Q101 standards and feature an environmentally friendly, lead-free and RoHS-compliant bill of materials.
