International Rectifier has introduced a new 20V DirectFET MOSFET synchronous buck convertor chipset.

International Rectifier has introduced a new 20V DirectFET MOSFET synchronous buck convertor chipset The IRF6610 and IRF6636 chipset offers a performance similar to a pair of SO-8 MOSFETs with a 40% size reduction

The chipset is designed for high frequency, point-of-load (POL) designs where size, efficiency and thermal performance are critical design considerations.

The IRF6610 features very low gate charge of 10nC, minimising switching losses for an optimised control FET function.

The IRF6636 is a versatile DirectFET power MOSFET with 4.5mOhm device on-resistance and a low gate charge of 18nC, and can be used as either a synchronous FET for 15A applications when coupled with an IRF6610, or a as a control FET when used with the IRF6691 for 35A per phase, multi-phase applications.

The IRF6636/IRF6691 chip enables greater density in applications such as POL modules, replacing as many as four thermally enhanced SO-8 MOSFET devices.
