600-Volt UltraMOS MOSFETs Exceed Expectations

October 05, 2015 by Jeff Shepard

Central Semiconductor introduces its new energy-efficient, high-voltage UltraMOS™ MOSFETs designed to minimize total conduction losses while maximizing power density. The initial release of this new family consists of the CDM4-600LR (4A in a DPAK), CDM7-600LR (7A in a DPAK) and CDM22011-600LRFP (11A in a TO-220FP). The key energy efficiency characteristics of UltraMOS™ devices include lower Rds(ON) (as low as 0.3Ω) and lower total gate charge (as low as 11.59nC). These devices well exceed the operational performance of similarly rated standard MOSFETs.

UltraMOSâ„¢ MOSFETs are designed for power supplies, power factor correction, and power inverter applications. A prime applications example would be the perfect pairing of an UltraMOSâ„¢ MOSFET with Central Semi HyperFast rectifiers providing a superior high speed operational benefit for phase shift compensation power factor correction, where these devices are. UltraMOSâ„¢ devices are available in industry standard packages as well as in custom packages.

Pricing for the CDM4-600LR is $0.45 each for a 2,500 piece reel. Pricing for the CDM7-600LR is $0.60 each for a 2,500 piece reel. Pricing for the CDM22011-600LRFP is $0.94 each for 1,000 pieces packed in sleeves or supplied bulk. Sample devices are available upon request. In addition to the 600V devices, Central plans to release 800V UltraMOSâ„¢ devices by the end of the fourth quarter of 2015.
