Microcontroller meets needs of modern appliances
Toshiba Electronics Europe has launched a flash microcontroller specifically designed to meet the needs of modern home appliance applications including washing machines, dryers, and dishwashers.
As a result, it is ideal for compact automotive applications including starter motors, generators and motor drives for air conditioning, electric windows, cooling fans and pumps.
Toshiba's mosfet module is based on the company's second generation U-mosfet trench gate structure (UMOS-II), which ensures a low on-resistance and improved power dissipation.
Typical drain-source on-resistance is rated at 4.0mohm.
Module electrodes are isolated from the case and isolation voltage (AC for 1min) is 100V.
Stray inductance between positive and negative terminals is rated at just 10nH.
In line with automotive requirements, an optimised solder layer between the copper substrate and the module's integrated heatsink ensures high reliability by withstanding long-term thermal cycling.
Designed for high-speed switching, the Toshiba mosfet module has typical rise and fall times of 170s and 150ns, respectively.
Respective turn-on and turn-off times are 250 and 750ns.
