    Vishay Unveils Compact Gen 3 SiC Schottky Diodes With High Creepage, Low Capacitance for High-Speed Power Designs

    2 Min Read

    Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced three new Gen 3 650 V and 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes in the compact, low profile SlimSMA HV (DO-221AC) package. Featuring a merged PIN Schottky (MPS) design and minimum creepage distance of 3.2 mm, the 1 A VS-3C01EJ12-M3 and 2 A VS-3C02EJ07-M3 and VS-3C02EJ12-M3 combine low capacitive charge with temperature-invariant switching behavior to increase efficiency in high speed, hard-switching power designs.

    For high voltage applications, the high creepage distance of the Vishay Semiconductors devices released today provides improved electrical isolation, while their SlimSMA HV package features a molding compound with a high CTI ≥ 600 to ensure excellent electrical insulation. For space-constrained designs, the diodes offer a low profile of 0.95 mm compared to 2.3 mm for competing SMA and SMB packages with a similar footprint.

    Unlike silicon diodes, the VS-3C01EJ12-M3, VS-3C02EJ07-M3, and VS-3C02EJ12-M3 maintain a low capacitive charge down to 7.2 nC irrespective of temperature, resulting in faster switching speeds, reduced power losses, and improved efficiency for high frequency applications. In addition, the devices have virtually no recovery tail, which further improves efficiency, while their MPS structure delivers a reduced forward voltage drop down to 1.30 V.

    With a high operating temperature of +175 °C, typical applications for the VS-3C01EJ12-M3, VS-3C02EJ07-M3, and VS-3C02EJ12-M3 will include bootstrap, anti-parallel, and PFC diodes for DC/DC and AC/DC converters in server power supplies; energy generation and storage systems; industrial drives and tools; and X-ray generators. For easy paralleling in these applications, the devices offer a positive temperature coefficient.

    RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the diodes feature a Moisture Sensitivity Level of 1 in accordance with J-STD-020 and meet the JESD 201 class 2 whisker test.

  • Vishay Unveils 650V MOSFET With Industry-Leading RDS(on) for High-Efficiency Power Conversion

    Vishay Unveils 650V MOSFET With Industry-Leading RDS(on) for High-Efficiency Power Conversion

    2 Min Read

    Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced a new Gen 4.5 650 V E Series power MOSFET that delivers high efficiency and power density for telecom, industrial, and computing applications. Compared to previous-generation devices, the Vishay Siliconix n-channel SiHK050N65E slashes on-resistance by 48.2 %, while offering a 65.4 % lower resistance times gate charge, a key figure of merit (FOM) for 650 V MOSFETs used in power conversion applications.

    Vishay offers a broad line of MOSFET technologies that support all stages of the power conversion process, from high voltage inputs to the low voltage outputs required to power the latest high tech equipment. With the SiHK050N65E and other devices in the Gen 4.5 650 V E Series family, the company is addressing the need for efficiency and power density improvements in two of the first stages of the power system architecture — power factor correction (PFC) and subsequent DC/DC converter blocks.

    Typical applications will include servers, edge computing, and super computers; UPS; high intensity discharge (HID) lamps and fluorescent ballast lighting; telecom SMPS; solar inverters; welding equipment; induction heating; motor drives; and battery chargers.

    Built on Vishay’s latest energy-efficient E Series superjunction technology, the SiHK050N65E’s low typical on-resistance of 0.048 Ω at 10 V results in a higher power rating for applications > 6 kW. With 50 V of additional breakdown voltage, the 650 V device addresses 200 VAC to 277 VAC input voltages and the Open Compute Project’s Open Rack V3 (ORV3) standards. In addition, the MOSFET offers ultra low gate charge down to 78 nC. The resulting FOM of 3.74 Ω*nC translates into reduced conduction and switching losses to save energy and increase efficiency. This allows the device to address the specific titanium efficiency requirements in server power supplies or reach 96 % peak efficiency.

    For improved switching performance in hard-switched topologies such as PFC and two-switch forward designs, the MOSFET released today provides low typical effective output capacitances Co(er) and Co(tr) of 167 pF and 1119 pF, respectively. The device’s resulting resistance times Co(er) FOM is an industry-low 8.0 Ω*pF. The SiHK050N65E is offered in the PowerPAK® 10 x 12 package with a Kelvin connection for reduced gate noise and provides increased dv/dt ruggedness. RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the MOSFET is designed to withstand overvoltage transients in avalanche mode with guaranteed limits through 100 % UIS testing.

    Vishay Intertechnology Introduced 650 V and 1200 V SiC Schottky Diodes in SOT-227 Package

    2 Min Read

    Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced 16 new 650 V and 1200 V silicon carbide (SiC) Schottky diodes in the industry-standard SOT-227 package. Designed to deliver high speed and efficiency for high frequency applications, the Vishay Semiconductors devices offer the best trade-off between capacitive charge (QC) and forward voltage drop for diodes in their class.

    The devices consist of 40 A to 240 A dual diode components in a parallel configuration, and 50 A and 90 A single phase bridge devices. Built on state of the art thin wafer technology, the diodes feature a low forward voltage drop down to 1.36 V that dramatically reduces conduction losses for increased efficiency. Further increasing efficiency, the devices offer better reverse recovery parameters than Si-based diodes and have virtually no recovery tail.

    Typical applications for the components will include AC/DC PFC and DC/DC ultra high frequency output rectification in FBPS and LLC converters for photovoltaic systems, charging stations, industrial UPS, and telecom power supplies. In these applications, the diodes’ low QC down to 56 nC allows for high speed switching, while their industry-standard package offers a drop-in replacement for competing solutions.

    The diodes deliver high temperature operation to +175 °C and a positive temperature coefficient for easy parallelling. UL-approved to file E78996, the devices feature a large creepage distance between terminals and a simplified mechanical design for rapid assembly.

    Vishay Intertechnology Introduced a New 150 V TrenchFET® Gen V N-Channel Power MOSFET

    2 Min Read

    To provide higher efficiency and power density for telecom, industrial, and computing applications, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. introduced a new 150 V TrenchFET® Gen V n-channel power MOSFET in the PowerPAK® SO-8S (QFN 6×5) package.

    Compared to previous-generation devices in the PowerPAK SO-8, the Vishay Siliconix SiRS5700DP slashes overall on-resistance by 68.3% and on-resistance times gate charge — a key figure of merit (FOM) for MOSFETs used in power conversion applications — by 15.4% while providing 62.5% lower RthJC and 179 % higher continuous drain current.

    With the industry’s lowest on-resistance of 5.6 mΩ at 10 V and on-resistance times gate charge FOM of 336 mΩ*nC, the device released today minimizes power losses from conduction. This allows designers to boost efficiency to meet next-generation power supply requirements, such as 6 kW AI server power systems. In addition, the extremely low 0.45 °C/W RthJC of the PowerPAK SO-8S package enables continuous drain current up to 144 A to increase power density while providing robust SOA capability.

    The SiRS5700DP is ideal for synchronous rectification, DC/DC converters, hot swap switching, and OR-ing functionality. Typical applications will include servers, edge computing, super computers, and data storage; telecom power supplies; solar inverters; motor drives and power tools; and battery management systems. RoHS-compliant and halogen-free, the MOSFET is 100 % Rg and UIS tested and complies with IPC-9701 criteria for more reliable temperature cycling. The device’s standard 6 mm by 5 mm footprint is fully compatible with the PowerPAK SO-8 package.
