Expanded Line of MicroFET Products Provides the Most Complete
Portfolio of 2 X 2mm MLP-Packaged MOSFET Devices in Their Voltage
Range With the introduction of 11 new MicroFET(TM) MOSFET products,
Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE:FCS) now offers the industry's
broadest portfolio of thermally enhanced ultra-compact, low-profile
(2x2x0.8mm) devices targeting low-power applications in the less
than 30V and less than 20V ranges. These include cell phones,
digital cameras, games, remote POS terminals, and many other
high-volume portable products where space optimization and
excellent thermal and electrical performance are essential for
saving battery life and ensuring reliability. MicroFET power
switches combine Fairchild's advanced Power Trench(TM) technology
with an industry-standard molded leadless package (MLP). This
approach allows the MicroFET to deliver significant thermal and
space improvements over conventionally used power MOSFETs in larger
packages. Fairchild's MicroFET in an MLP offers designers a new
package option in addition to SSOT-6 or SC-70 devices typically
used in charger, boost converter, DC/DC converter and load switch
applications. The MicroFET in a 2x2mm MLP is 55% smaller than a
3x3mm SSOT-6 MOSFET, while providing higher performance. For
example, compared to a typical dual P-channel SSOT-6 (9mm(2))
device, the MicroFET (4mm(2)) offers 17% lower RDS(on) (95 vs.
115mOhm) and 16% lower thermal resistance (151 vs. 180 degrees C/W
(minimum copper pad values)). In addition, MicroFET devices offer
exceptionally better thermal performance and higher efficiency than
larger 3x1.9mm MLP devices, as well as SC-70 packages with a
similar small footprint. Compared to a dual P-channel SC-70 device,
for instance, Fairchild's MicroFET offers 80% lower RDS(on) and 65%
lower thermal resistance. "Fairchild offers the most complete
portfolio of products available for serving low-voltage
applications. These easy-to-implement, high-performance and
space-saving MOSFETs are ideal for all of our customers'
low-voltage switching and power management/battery charging
systems," said Chris Winkler, marketing director, Low Voltage Power
Segment. "In 2005, Fairchild was first to introduce an MLP-packaged
MicroFET with the high performance of a traditional SSOT-6 device
and the small footprint of an SC-70. With this introduction of 11
new devices, we're offering our customers a significantly expanded
and augmented MicroFET family of products." These lead (PB)-free
devices meet or exceed the requirements of the joint ICP/JEDEC
standard J-STD-020C and are compliant with the European Union
regulations now in effect. For information about these products,
