New-Generation 600V Planar MOSFET Series

TOKYO— Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation today announced the launch of “π-MOS IX,” a new series of 600V planar MOSFET. Mass production starts today.       

With an optimized chip design, the π-MOS IX series provides 5dB lower^[1] peak EMI noise than the current π-MOS VII series, while maintaining the same level of efficiency. It offers greater design freedom and therefore helps reduce design workloads. In addition, the π-MOS IX series has the same rated avalanche current and rated DC current, making it simple to replace existing MOSFET.

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation will expand the π-MOS IX series with the addition of more 600V devices, plus 500V and 650V devices.

Applications

• Small to medium switching power supplies for notebook PC AC adapters and game console chargers
• Lighting power supplies

Features

• Combines high efficiency and low noise
• Rated avalanche current equivalent to the rated DC curren
