Fairchild Semiconductor Releases Industry's Lowest Profile MicroFET (0.55mm) MOSFETs
Dissipates 60 Percent More Power than MOSFETs in SC-70 Packaging
San Jose, California – November 18, 2008 – Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) meets the size and power demands of today’s portable applications with its new ultra-thin and highly efficient MicroFET products. The FDMA1027PT, a 20V P-Channel PowerTrench® MOSFET, and the FDFMA2P853T, a 20V P-Channel PowerTrench MOSFET with a Schottky diode, are housed in 2mm x 2mm x 0.55mm MLP packages. They are 55 percent smaller and 50 percent lower in height than 3mm x 3mm x 1.1mm MOSFETs that are typically used in low-voltage designs. This thin package option satisfies the requirements for ultra-slim form factors associated with next generation portable products such as cell phones.
The FDMA1027PT and the FDFMA2P853T are designed for greater efficiency, addressing the power challenges of feature-rich functionalities that tax battery life. Utilizing Fairchild’s proprietary PowerTrench® MOSFET process that reduces conduction and switching losses, these devices offer excellent power dissipation and low conduction losses. Compared to similar sized devices housed in 2mm x 2mm SC-70 packaging, the FDMA1027PT and the FDFMA2P853T offer approximately 60 percent lower conduction losses and are able to dissipate 1.4W of power, compared to 300mW with SC-70 packages.
Fairchild’s MicroFET family offers compelling advantages such as compact packaging and high performance to address the needs of battery-charging, load-switching, boost and DC-DC conversion.
The FDMA1027PT and the FDFMA2P853T utilize lead-free (Pb-free) terminals and have been characterized for moisture sensitivity in accordance with the Pb-free reflow requirements of the joint IPC/JEDEC standard J-STD-020. All of Fairchild's products are designed to meet the requirements of the European Union's Directive on the restriction of the use of certain substances (RoHS).
