Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH developed a series of new N-channel MOSFETs for automotive applications that are based on the company’s advanced U-MOSVIII-H process technology.

The XPN3R804NC and XPN7R104NC both have 40V voltage ratings, while the XPN6R706NC and XPN12006NC support 60V operation. According to the company, they all exhibit low ON-resistance values, reaching down to 3.8mΩ (for the XPN3R804NC at 10V), plus minimal leakage current.

These MOSFETs are housed in surface-mount TSON Advance (WF) packages which ensure that board utilization is kept to a minimum. They have a 3.3mm × 3.6mm (typical) footprint and can replace devices with a size of 5mm × 6 mm. Through inclusion of wettable flank terminals, board mounting procedures, and automated optical inspection (AOI) activities are also aided.

Fully AEC-Q101-compliant, these MOSFET devices are intended for deployment within automotive environments. Their compactness allows shrinkage in the size of vehicles’ electronic control units (ECUs). Other potential application scenarios where they may be utilized include switching regulators, DC-DC converters and motor drivers.
