ON Introduces Packaged Power MOSFETs For Space-Constrained Portable Electronics

Phoenix, AZ - ON Semiconductor, a supplier of power management semiconductor solutions, recently introduced a new generation of power MOSFETs offered in tiny SOT-723 packages and optimized for space-constrained portable applications. These new low threshold power MOSFETs utilize ON Semiconductor's leading-edge Trench technology to achieve comparable electrical and power performance to MOSFETs offered in much larger SC-89 or SC-75 packages.

NTK3134N is a 20 volt (V), 890 milliampere (mA), N-Channel MOSFET. The NTK3139P is a -20 V, -780 mA, P-Channel MOSFET. Both devices have low RDS(on) values for over 200 mA operating current and 1.5 V low gate voltage to allow direct control from power management ASIC or other controllers.

The NTK313xx devices are ideal for load/power switching applications and small signal interface switching. Featuring integrated electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, the devices minimize the need for special handling and assembly processes. The 1.2 mm x 1.2 mm footprint of the SOT-723 package utilizes 44 percent less board space than similar performing MOSFETs offered in the SC-89 or SC-75 packages. With a low vertical clearance of 0.5 mm, the new SOT-723 packaged MOSFETs satisfy the requirements of new generation ultra-thin handheld portable devices.

Both devices are currently in production and available. For additional information, you can visit www.onsemi.com or contact Sam.Abdeh@onsemi.com.
