Magnachip adds tiny 40-V automotive power MOSFETs
Magnachip Semiconductor Corporation has released four new 40-V MXT MV MOSFETs designed in Power Dual Flat No-Lead (PDFN) 33 packages for automotive applications.
As automotive technologies like autonomous driving and infotainment systems advance, the number and variety of motors installed in vehicles are increasing. Consequently, there is a growing importance for high-performance MOSFETs that offer low power consumption, compact size, and lightweight construction to efficiently drive these motors.
The newly launched 40-V MXT MV MOSFETs feature PDFN33 package formats that reduce the area by more than 60% and the weight by approximately 75% as compared to 40-V MOSFET products packaged in PDFN56 packages. This makes them even more suitable for automotive motors and low-power control systems, where performance, fuel efficiency, and space flexibility are crucial.
Among these new products, three models — AMDV040N029LVRH, AMDV040N036LVRH, and AMDV040N042LVRH — are distinguished by their low gate threshold voltage of 1.8 V. The gate threshold voltage determines the point at which the MOSFET switches from an off-state to an on-state. A lower threshold voltage reduces the energy required to operate the MOSFET, thereby decreasing the overall power consumption of the system.
“With the launch of these new products, Magnachip has further strengthened its automotive power product lineup, which is designed to satisfy the diverse demands of the automotive components industry,” said YJ Kim, CEO of Magnachip. “We will continue to expand our global presence in this evolving market through technological innovation and stable product supply.”
