MOSFETs manage more current

An International Rectifier product story

Edited by the Electronicstalk editorial team Oct 3, 2005

International Rectifier has expanded its high performance family of 75 and 100V HEXFET synchronous rectification MOSFETs with the introduction of the IRF2907ZS-7PPbF 160A-rated, seven-pin device.

International Rectifier has expanded its high performance family of 75 and 100V HEXFET synchronous rectification MOSFETs with the introduction of the IRF2907ZS-7PPbF 160A-rated, seven-pin device.

The 160A rating provides an additional safety factor against surge current in switching applications.

Typical applications include server switch mode power supply (SMPS) rectification with 12V output, active ORing for telecomms 48V rails and 24V input DC/DC convertors.

A standard three-lead D2Pak is limited to approximately 100A, depending on lead cross-section and manufacturer's specification method.

The new IR device has an enhanced 7-pin leadframe that allows larger diameter wire-bonding, enabling the IRF2907ZS-7PPbF to achieve a 45% higher current rating than other D2Pak MOSFETs on the market.

In addition, the IRF2907ZS-7PPbF has a device on-resistance of 3.8mohm, which is at least 16% lower than similar MOSFETs on the market.

The new high-current switching devices are also suitable for low voltage motor drive applications.

In addition, the devices are RoHS lead-free, qualified to Q101 grade, and moisture sensitivity MSL1.
