More leads help boost MOSFET current
ratings
International Rectifier has introduced a pair of new 55V-rated Q101-qualified automotive HEXFET power MOSFETs rated for continuous duty in the D2Pak outline.
International Rectifier has introduced a pair of new 55V-rated Q101-qualified automotive HEXFET power MOSFETs rated for continuous duty in the D2Pak outline The new 55V devices are designed to increase safety margin in specific circuitry and load topologies where the higher voltage rating would handle load-dump transients on the battery line, or transients caused by loads with strong inductive nature

International Rectifier has introduced the world's first 1000V radiation-hardened power MOSFET.
The IRF3805S-7P (160A continuous) and IRF1405ZS-7P (120A continuous) are designed for heavy-duty, high-current automotive applications such as electronic power steering (EPS), 14V integrated starter alternator (ISA) systems and advanced alternator active rectification.
A standard three-lead D2Pak is limited to 75 to 100A, depending on lead cross-section and manufacturer's specification method; however, International Rectifier's new devices have seven leads.
The additional leads allow a larger wirebond area, reducing die-free package resistance, enabling a maximum device on-resistance specification of 2.6mohm at 25C (IRF3805S-7P).
The IRF2804S-7P and the IRF1405ZS-7P are ideal replacements for multiple D2Pak devices as well as larger through-hole package devices.
