Alpha & Omega Semiconductor Broadens Portfolio With High Voltage MOSFET Family.


New 600V MOSFETs Feature High Robustness and Reduced Switching Losses

SUNNYVALE, Calif. -- Alpha & Omega Semiconductor, Inc. (AOS (Alternative Operator Services) Operator services provided by a third-party organization. See operator services.

1. AOS - /aws/ (East Coast), /ay-os/ (West Coast) A PDP-10 instruction that took any memory location and added 1 to it.
) today announced the release of ten 600V-rated MOSFETs. The announcement represents a significant addition to AOS' extensive portfolio of low voltage trench MOSFETs. The new 600V devices are ideally suited for use in AC-DC power supplies and adapters used for desktop and notebook PCs, LCD TVs, and handheld devices such as cellular phones and PDAs.

The new MOSFETs allow high efficiency power conversion with reduced switching losses by offering an optimized combination of low RDS (1) (Remote Data Services) A set of programming interfaces from Microsoft that enables users to update data on the Internet or intranets from their ActiveX-enabled browser.

"We are delighted to offer these new 600V MOSFETs to our customers. This is the first stage of a comprehensive product release that will allow AOS to offer a complete range of products to support AC-DC power conversion applications," said David Grey, Marketing Director of MOSFETs at AOS.

"There is growing demand for the new Bronze, Silver and Gold 80 Plus certifications for higher efficiency power supplies. By developing high performance high voltage MOSFETs, in conjunction with lower voltage synchronous rectifiers, AOS will be able to provide power supply designers with advanced total MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor) The most popular and widely used type of field effect transistor (see FET). MOSFETs are either NMOS (n-channel) or PMOS (p-channel) transistors, which are fabricated as individually packaged  solutions," said Grey.

Technical Highlights

The high voltage MOSFETs were developed to reduce switching losses through lowering the Crss. In addition, robustness was "designed in" with high avalanche energy capability that is also guaranteed through 100% final testing.

The devices are available in three industry-standard packages: DPAK DPAK Discrete Packaging , TO-220 and the electrically isolated TO-220F.

Pricing and Availability

The high voltage MOSFET family is available immediately in production quantities. The table below shows brief specifications and pricing.

About AOS

Alpha & Omega Semiconductor, Inc. is a fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab.  that develops leading-edge analog power management solutions. AOS offers a wide portfolio of Power MOSFET, Power IC and Transient Voltage Suppressor A transient voltage suppressor or TVS is a general classification of an array of devices that are designed to react to sudden or momentary overvoltage conditions. One such common device used for this purpose is known as the transient voltage suppression diode that is simply  products that incorporate advances in device design, silicon and packaging technologies. AOS' products meet the ever-increasing performance and power efficiency requirements in high-volume consumer applications such as portable and desktop computers, digital cameras, cell phones and LCD panels.
