Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Expands Its New PairFET™ Family
September 14 2016 - 8:00AM
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 introduced two new products
based on its high efficiency XS-PairFET package and latest low
voltage technology. The AOE6932 and AOE6936 are the newest
extensions to the flagship device, AOE6930, that was released in
2015. Both products are newly optimized for enhanced driving and
switching performance.

AOE6932 improves gate driving performance and
reduces power loss at relatively low output current. AOE6936
features a 20V gate voltage tolerance with much smaller parasitic
capacitances. Both devices offer the same 8mohm (max) Rdson (@4.5V
gate driving voltage) on the high side, but present different Rdson
values for the low side FET. AOE6932 is designed with a 1.8mohm
(max) @ 4.5Vgs low side FET, while AOE6936 is designed with a 3mohm
(max) low side FET. Application tests show that these distinct
configurations uniquely optimize each device to achieve the best
efficiency and address specific application requirements, such as
the input-output voltage headroom, and current per phase for the
Vcore power supply.
“Our first product packaged in a PairFET with a
bottom-sourced low-side FET was released last year, and the AOE6930
is now widely accepted by leading customers in notebook PC, desktop
PC, and high-end VGA designs. The benefits offered by this
structure are significant. With direct thermal dissipation
from the low side source down to the copper layer of the PCB, the
temperature rise can be well controlled in the power device. With
the newly released AOE6932 and AOE6936, we offer wide coverage of
various application conditions, with optimal cost effectiveness.
This product family is setting a new industry standard for high
power density circuit design in all POL applications,” said Lei
Feng, Sr. Marketing Director of MOSFET product line at AOS.
