Toshiba is eyeing semiconductor test applications with a tiny photo-relay that operates at 1.6Vin “making it suitable for use with 1.8V FPGAs”, according to the company. “A resistor is built in on the primary side, enabling voltage-controlled operation.” Called TLP3412SRLA, it draws 6.6mA at the nominal operating voltage of 1.8V. Inside is a single Form-A (normally-open) ac or dc contact that ...
Toshiba has introduced a 60V p-channel mosfet rated at 60V and 90A continuous current, with AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use. Called XPH8R316MC (90A), the company sees it being used in vehicles, in load switches, electronic relays and motor drives. A similar part, XPH13016MC, is the same except rated at 60A. In both cases, pulse rating is double the continuous current ...
Toshiba has added over-temperature and over-voltage protection features to an 80V 1.4A photo-relay, all inside a 4pin DIP package. Called TLP241BP, it can switch ac or dc though its single isolate 280mΩ (max) output switch – implemented as a pair of back to back mosfets – and handle pulses up to 4.2A (100ms, 1/10 duty). Output leakage is 1μA max ...
Toshiba has launched its first 30V n-channel common-drain dual mosfet, for controlling bi-directional power flow in USB-connected devices. The USB Power Delivery standard supports power levels from 5V 3A to 48V 5A, and allows swapping of the power supply and receiving side, requiring devices with USB charging to support bi-directional power. In developing a 30V common drain mosfet, called SSM10N961L, ...
Toshiba is aiming at pumps, air conditioning and fans with through-hole versions of its latest 600V three-phase brushless dc motor drivers. TPD4163K and TPD4164K come in a 32.8 x 13.5 x 3.525mm ‘HDIP30′ package, which has pins on a 1.778mm pitch (Electronics Weekly has asked why this odd pitch was chosen – watch this space). “This new package reduces PCB ...
Toshiba has launched a 200A 40V 0.66mΩmax automotive grade n-channel mosfet that can handle 600A pulses in a 7 x 8.44 x 2.3mm gull-wing package. “Automotive safety-critical applications such as steering, braking and autonomous driving systems generally require more devices than other systems to meet redundancy requirements. Here, a power mosfet with high current density is required due to the ...
Toshiba is aiming at battery pack protection with a 12V 20A common-drain dual n-channel mosfet. The new part is SSM14N956L and “uses Toshiba’s micro-process, in common with the already released 13.5A SSM10N954L”, according to the company. Application circuit for the earlier SSM10N954L dual mosfet Alongside the mosfets are clamp devices to protects the gates from excessive voltage as well as ...
Toshiba has introduced a photo-relay in a 1.45 x 2mm package that switches on in 250μs – 50% quicker than its existing TLP3475S. The new part, TLP3476S, is in a 1.5mm high (max) S-VSON4T package, has a maximum on-resistance of 1.5Ω, can carry 400mA (ac or dc) and isolates up to 500Vrms. 3mA is the maximum LED drive needed to ...
Torsten Siems, of Toshiba Electronics Europe, suggests using discrete optical isolators for cost-effective and flexible transfer in industrial applications. I2C-bus applications sometimes require high voltage isolation to ensure safety and reliability. The inter-integrated circuit I2C bus was introduced in the 1980s to enable communication between a host CPU and peripheral devices for configuration, monitoring and control. Originally intended for short ...
Toshiba has created a gull-wing mosfet package specifically for high current automotive applications, and has released a 400A 40V mosfet in it. Branded L-TOGL and measuring 9.9 x 11.8 x 2.3mm (right), the AEC-Q101-capable package is designed for up to 175°C, 100V, 400A, 750W, with minimum mosfet device Rds(on) around 300μΩ. This compares with 250A, 372W and ~740μΩ from the ...
