Alpha and Omega Semiconductor (AOS), a leading innovator in power electronics, has expanded its portfolio of package options for their high-performance second-generation 650 V to 1200 V αSiC MOSFETs. This exciting development empowers designers with greater flexibility in optimizing critical applications like xEV charging, solar inverters, and industrial power supplies. BonChip Electronics, a trusted distributor of AOS products, is proud to offer the complete range of αSiC MOSFETs and comprehensive technical support to help you achieve peak system efficiency.
Enhanced Design Flexibility with Diverse Package Options
The new package options provide designers with a strategic advantage, enabling them to tailor their systems for optimal performance and streamlined manufacturing. AOS will be showcasing these advancements at PCIM Europe 2024 in Nuremberg, Germany (June 11-13).
A Closer Look at the Innovative Package Offerings
D2PAK-7L Surface Mount Package: This new surface mount solution accommodates the AOBB040V120X2Q, AOS' groundbreaking 1200 V/40 milli-ohm αSiC MOSFET. The AEC-Q101-qualified D2PAK-7L package seamlessly replaces traditional through-hole options, ideal for applications like on-board chargers (OBCs) where efficient cooling is achieved through vias and backside PCB heatsinks. This approach simplifies assembly and maximizes power density. Additionally, the low inductance design paired with a fast driver source sense connection solidifies AOS αSiC MOSFETs as some of the most efficient power-switching solutions available.
GTPAK Surface Mount Package with Topside Cooling: For designs featuring a topside-mounted heatsink, the GTPAK surface mount package offers a superior thermal solution. The direct heat path from the GTPAK minimizes thermal resistance, enabling higher power dissipation and more effective PCB routing. The AOGT020V120X2, a 1200 V/20 milli-ohm αSiC MOSFET, is the first product offered in the GTPAK, ideal for high-efficiency solar inverter and industrial power supply applications.
AlphaModule High Power Baseplate-Less Module: The AOH010V120AM2 marks the debut product in AOS' new AlphaModule family. This 1200 V/10 milli-ohm half-bridge αSiC module features press-fit pins and an integrated thermistor, housed in a standard footprint. This design allows for the replacement of multiple discrete devices with a compact single module, simplifying both mechanical and electrical design by offering distinct electrical and cooling paths. Single modules are ideal for residential solar inverters, while parallel configurations of multiple modules can be employed for high-power applications like fast DC charging stations.
Empowering Innovation: A Commitment to Efficiency
"The surging demand for electric vehicles, renewable energy, and robust energy infrastructure underscores the growing interest in our αSiC MOSFETs," remarked David Sheridan, Vice President of SiC products at AOS. "By expanding our portfolio with these advanced package options, we empower our customers to leverage the superior performance of αSiC technology and push the boundaries of power system density and efficiency."
