Toshiba Electronics Europe GmbH has expanded its portfolio of N-channel power MOSFETs with the introduction of nine new devices designed for industrial power applications. The new lineup includes three 100 V MOSFETs targeting 48 V power rails and six 60 V MOSFETs intended for 24 V systems.

The new products have been developed in response to the ongoing transition in industrial equipment from traditional 12 V and 24 V power architectures to 48 V systems, a trend driven by the need to improve energy efficiency and reduce power consumption.

As industrial equipment adopts higher supply voltages, power systems must also withstand higher transient conditions. Toshiba noted that inrush currents and voltage surges on 48 V power lines can result in voltage levels exceeding 50 V to 80 V, making 100 V-rated MOSFETs necessary to ensure reliable operation. At the same time, equipment manufacturers continue to seek higher efficiency, lower power losses, and more compact designs.

To address these requirements, Toshiba has introduced solutions for both emerging 48 V architectures and the widely deployed 24 V systems currently used across industrial applications.

The new MOSFETs are offered in three package options designed to meet a variety of system-level requirements.

For applications prioritizing versatility and ease of implementation, Toshiba offers devices in the SOT-23F package, which measures 2.9 mm × 2.4 mm and provides power dissipation of up to 1 W.

For designs requiring enhanced thermal performance and higher power dissipation capability, the TSOP6F package measures 2.9 mm × 2.8 mm and supports power dissipation up to 1.5 W.

In applications where space constraints are critical, the UDFN6B package provides an ultra-compact solution with a footprint of approximately 2.0 mm × 2.0 mm while delivering power dissipation of up to 1.25 W.

Despite their compact package dimensions, all new devices feature low drain-source on-resistance (RDS(on)), helping to reduce conduction losses and improve overall system efficiency.

According to Toshiba, the combination of high efficiency, low power loss, and compact package options makes the new MOSFETs suitable for a wide range of applications. These include industrial equipment such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), inverter systems, servo motor drives, and servers, as well as consumer products including LED lighting systems, water heaters, water purifiers, and robotic vacuum cleaners.

With the introduction of these new devices, Toshiba continues to expand its power semiconductor portfolio to address evolving industrial power system requirements and support the industry’s transition toward higher-efficiency 24 V and 48 V architectures.
