IR Introduces New Family of -30V P-channel Power MOSFETs

September 08, 2010 by Jeff Shepard

International Rectifier (IR)® announced the introduction of a new family of -30V devices featuring IR’s latest P-channel MOSFET silicon in an SO-8 package for battery charge and discharge switches, and system/load switches used in dc applications.

The new P-channel devices offer on-state resistance (RDS(on)) from 4.6mΩ up to 59mΩ to match a wide range of power requirements. P-channel MOSFETs eliminate the need for level shifting or charge pump circuitries making them a highly desirable solution for system/load switch applications.

"This new SO-8 P-channel MOSFET family delivers a strong improvement in current handling compared to previous generation devices to offer customers a wide range of RDS(on) options to suit their thermal and cost requirements while the P-channel technology helps simplify design circuitry," said George Feng, Marketing Engineer for IR’s Power Management Devices Business Unit.

The P-channel MOSFET devices are qualified to moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1), are offered lead free and are RoHS compliant.

Pricing for the IRF9310 begins at US $0.43 each in 10,000-unit quantities.
