Magnachip starts production of 40V MOSFET
Dual package enables small footprint and low conduction losses
Magnachip Semiconductor has begun full-scale mass production of its new 40V MXT MOSFET optimised for the electric water pumps and electric oil pumps in electric vehicles (EVs).
This 40V MXT MOSFET (AMDUA040N070RH) comes in a Power Dual Flat No-lead (PDFN) 56 dual package is said to reduce the printed circuit board size by 50 percent, as compared to using two 40V single-packaged MOSFETs.
The low RDS(on) enabled by the PDFN56 package reduces conduction losses, which means applications can be controlled efficiently. In addition, AMDUA040N070RH is fully AEC - Q101 qualified for its performance and stability, because of the enhanced design of its core cells and terminations for automotive applications.
“Since 2008 we have strengthened our technological capabilities in the power solutions area,” said YJ Kim, CEO of Magnachip. “As a provider of high-performance MOSFETs, Magnachip will continue to deliver innovative solutions to serve the growing demand for eco-friendly applications.”
