Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a leading supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, has introduced new 100V high-power N-Channel MOSFETs that deliver industry-leading high-current switching performance for applications such as motor control, battery management systems, power management, and charging. Targeted end products include electric vehicles, e-bikes, charging stations, power tools, data centers, and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), among others.
Renesas has developed a new MOSFET wafer manufacturing process, REXFET-1, which allows these devices to achieve a significant reduction in on-resistance—by 30 percent. This lower on-resistance leads to considerably reduced power loss in customer designs.
Additionally, the REXFET-1 process enables the new MOSFETs to exhibit a 10 percent reduction in gate charge (Qg) characteristics, as well as a 40 percent reduction in gate-drain charge (Qgd) during the "Miller Plateau" phase.
Beyond their superior electrical characteristics, Renesas’ new RBA300N10EANS and RBA300N10EHPF MOSFETs are available in industry-standard TOLL and TOLG packages. These packages are pin-compatible with devices from other manufacturers and are 50 percent smaller than traditional TO-263 packages. The TOLL package also features wettable flanks for optical inspection.
“Renesas has been a leader in the MOSFET market for many years,” said Avi Kashyap, Vice President of Discrete Power Solutions Business Unit at Renesas. “By leveraging our manufacturing capabilities, we can offer customers superior technical products along with the assurance of supply from multiple high-volume facilities.”
Winning Combinations
Renesas has combined the new MOSFETs with various compatible devices from its portfolio to offer a wide array of Winning Combinations. Notable examples include the 48V Mobility Platform and the 3-in-1 Electric Vehicle Unit: Inverter, Onboard Charger, and DC/DC Converter. These designs are technically vetted system architectures featuring mutually compatible devices that work together seamlessly, providing an optimized, low-risk design for faster time to market. Renesas offers over 400 Winning Combinations with a diverse range of products from its portfolio, enabling customers to expedite the design process and bring their products to market more quickly.
