iDEAL Semiconductor has announced that its proprietary SuperQ™ technology has successfully achieved AEC-Q101 automotive qualification, marking the company’s entry into high-reliability and automotive-grade power semiconductor markets.
The company’s first automotive-qualified product, the iS20M028S1CQ, is a 200 V MOSFET featuring a low 25 mΩ RDS(on) and a maximum junction temperature rating of 175°C. The device is now entering mass production.
SuperQ technology represents a major innovation in silicon MOSFET performance, delivering significantly higher efficiency, lower switching losses, and improved conduction characteristics while retaining the proven robustness and reliability of silicon. This qualification confirms SuperQ’s ability to meet the demanding standards required for automotive applications, including electric vehicle powertrains, on-board chargers, and advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS).
The iS20M028S1CQ extends iDEAL’s 200 V product family and is housed in a compact PDFN 5×6 mm package. The device offers up to 1.7 times better performance compared to competing solutions, combining high efficiency and low resistance with compatibility for high-volume, cost-efficient manufacturing.
“This is an important milestone that builds on the ruggedness and robustness of SuperQ, opening new markets for iDEAL,” said Mark Granahan, CEO and Founder of iDEAL Semiconductor. “Automotive qualification validates our technology’s potential to drive efficiency in electrified transportation and beyond, empowering customers with more sustainable, more reliable power solutions.”
With this achievement, iDEAL strengthens its position in the power semiconductor industry, bringing advanced silicon-based innovation to applications that demand high efficiency, reliability, and performance under extreme conditions.
