60V MOSFET in 1 SOT-923 package
18 May 2010
Vishay has launched a 60V n-channel power MOSFET in the tiny SOT-923 package.
The smallest 60V power MOSFET ever released, the SiM400 in the SOT-923 measures 1mm x 0.6mm with a maximum height profile of 0.43mm. Its footprint dimensions are 77 % smaller than the SC-89, and its height profile is 26 % thinner.
On-resistance for the new device is 3.9Ω at VGS = 10V, 4.8Ω at 4.5V, and 8Ω at 3.5V.
The SiM400 will serve in a wide range of small-signal switching applications where minimal board space is available, including miniaturised motors in digital still and video cameras, electro-luminescent backlighting, and boost DC-DC converters, where its small dimensions will help to save space and/or enable greater functionality.
Handheld devices tend to use small-signal switching in conjunction with complex controllers such as power management units (PMUs). The SiM400's low on-resistance ratings down to 3.5V, which is an exceptionally low gate-to-source value for a 60V device, and its small package size compared to a SC-89 represent benefits.
The new device is lead-free, halogen-free, and RoHS-compliant. It additionally provides ESD protection up to 1500V.
Samples and production quantities of the SiM400 are available now, with lead times of 10 to 12 weeks for larger orders.
