SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 2, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited (AOS) (Nasdaq: AOSL ), a designer, developer and global supplier of a broad range of power semiconductors and power ICs, today announced the release of six new 25V and 30V MOSFETs ( AON7760 , AON7510 , AON7758 , AON7764 , AON7536 , and AON7538 ), the latest additions to the low voltage portfolio in compact 3 x 3mm DFN packages. These devices are ideally suited for a variety of DC/DC step-down conversion solutions for personal computing, gaming, servers, and telecom/datacom applications.

The new devices use AOS's proprietary power trench MOSFET technology to accomplish an exceptionally low figure-of-merit (R DS(ON) x Q g ) for fast switching applications such as the latest DC/DC converters that operate over 600KHz. The AON7536 is optimized for high-side switching by minimizing Q g and C rss , thus, lowering the switching power losses. When paired with the AON7760, AON7536 can achieve 90% efficiency at 15A for a 12V input and 1.8V output. This new 3x3 DFN family has a 20% figure-of-merit improvement from the previous generation. While keeping the same on-resistance, designers can enjoy the 20% lower Q g to operate at a higher switching frequency. In addition to the DC/DC applications, the AON7510's ultra low R DS(ON) 1.3mΩ (max) @ 10V is ideal for conduction loss critical applications such as those with a high current system switch, load switch, or motor drive.
"Whether the designs are fast switching or turn-on/off applications, AOS's new DFN 3x3mm MOSFETs are able to minimize both switching and conduction loss for a cooler and more efficient operation in a common industry footprint," said George Feng, Senior Manager of Product Marketing.
AON7760, AON7510, AON7758, AON7764, AON7536, and AON7538 are all Halogen-Free and RoHS compliant.
