DFN0603 package improves performance while reducing space needs significantly
Nexperia, the expert in essential semiconductors,todayannounced the release of a new range of20 V & 30 V MOSFETs inthe world’s smallest DFN package, the DFN0603. Nexperia already offers ESD protection devices in this package, buthasnow succeeded in bringing it to their MOSFET portfolio, a feat as yetunmatched in the industry.
Next generation wearable and hearable devices are incorporating new levels of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), creatingseveral challenges for product designers. Firstly,available board space is at a premium as functionality is added,plus heat dissipation becomes a problem as power consumption increases.
Nexperia has drawn on its decades of experience as an industry leader in the production of discrete components anddesigned thisinnovative range of tiny MOSFETs to successfully overcomeboth concerns.Theultra-low-profileDFN0603 package, measuring only 0.63×0.33×0.25 mm, uses 13% less space than MOSFETs in the next smallest package (DFN0604). Impressively, this size reduction has been achieved withoutcompromising device performance – in fact the RDS(on) of these devices has been reduced by74%, helping to improve efficiency and thereby enabling wearable equipment designers to achieve even greater power density.
This new range of tiny MOSFETs includes:
- PMX100UN 20 V, N-channel Trench MOSFET
- PMX100UNE20 V, N-channel Trench MOSFET with 2kV ESD protection (HBM)
- PMX300UNE 30 V, N-channel Trench MOSFET
- PMX400UP20 V, P-channel Trench MOSFET
Nexperia has plans to add two more MOSFETs to this rangelater in 2022.
Samples are available now. For more information, including product specs and datasheets, please visit:https://www.nexperia.com/DFN0603-MOSFETs
