Power mosfets suit dc/dc converter applications

A new family of 30V N channel mosfets has been introduced by Advanced Power Electronics.

The RoHS compliant devices are designed to provide fast switching performance and feature a low typical gate charge of 15nC. The AP4034GMT-HF-3 mosfets benefit from a low maximum on-resistance of 8m? and a drain-source current rating of 44.3A. They are available in a PMPAK5x6 package with an integrated thermal pad and with a standard SO-8 footprint compatible with other enhanced 5 x 6mm power packages. The AP4034GM-HF-3 devices come in a standard SO-8 package. They offer a maximum on-resistance of 9m? and drain-source current rating of 13A. Finally, the AP4034GYT-HF-3 mosfets offer the same low maximum on-resistance of 9m? with a drain-source current rating of 15.5A, but offer improved thermal performance in an even smaller 3 x 3mm foot print. Their PMPAK3x3 package is specially designed for compact dc/dc converter applications, with a small footprint that offers a backside heat sink and a low 1mm package profile.
