NXP rolls new MOSFETs for automotive markets

10/2/2012 1:19 PM EDT

EINDHOVEN, Netherlands – NXP Semiconductors N.V. has announced a range of dual Power-SO8 MOSFETs with an eye toward automotive applications such as fuel injection, ABS and stability control. The LFPAK56D portfolio  is  AEC-Q101 qualified claims a 77 percent smaller footprint than the equivalent DPAK solution which typically requires two devices.

LFPAK56D combines two fully isolated MOSFETs into a single package designed to meet the rigorous requirements of the automotive industry. With the industry’s widest range of RDSon values across five voltage grades, it provides the best performance, current handling and reliability on the market. This new range of dual Power-SO8 MOSFETs offers customers complete flexibility and freedom to pick the device that best matches the application and module requirements, while also achieving a much higher power density. 

Designing with LFPAK56D lowers costs through simpler PCB assembly, ease of inspection and shrinking module size. Smaller modules also means a significant saving in weight, which is particularly attractive to manufacturers focused on reducing CO2 emissions.

'Copper clip'
Building on NXP’s expertise in LFPAK56, which was the first power-SO8 package on the market fully qualified to AEC-Q101, NXP is now introducing the same reliable ”copper clip” bonding technology to dual Power-SO8 MOSFETs in LFPAK56D. This copper clip technology is what gives the package its advantage in low package resistance, inductance and high maximum ID rating.

Key Features

  • Dual Power-SO8 MOSFET
  • 77% smaller footprint than the equivalent DPAK solution
  • Copper clip technology - Wire bond free
  • High maximum ID rating
  • Low package resistance and inductance
  • Low thermal resistance
  • High current transient robustness
  • Automotive AEC-Q101 qualified to 175°C
The LFPAK56D range is in volume production and is available immediately.
