Renesas Rolls Out RJK0383DPA Dual-type Power MOSFET
Renesas Technology America, Inc. announced the RJK0383DPA, a dual-type power MOSFET that enables smaller, higher-efficiency synchronous-rectification DC/DC converters for generating various supply voltages in communication devices and laptop PCs. The advanced, tenth-generation device integrates high-side and low-side power MOSFETs and a Schottky barrier diode in a compact (5.3×6.2×0.8mm, max) package with high thermal conductivity. In a synchronous-rectification circuit converting a 12V DC input to a 1.1V DC output at 600 kHz switching frequencies, it achieves an industry-best efficiency rating of 91.6 percent. Output current doubled from earlier dual-type power MOSFETs from Renesas Technology.
