Automotive MOSFETs Sport Novel Package

June 2, 2011
The AUIRF3004WL and AUIRF1324WL automotive qualified MOSFETs come in a novel WideLead TO-262 package that reduces lead resistance by 50% compared to traditional TO-262 packages while offering 30% higher current handling.

The AUIRF3004WL and AUIRF1324WL automotive qualified MOSFETs come in a novel WideLead TO-262 package that reduces lead resistance by 50% compared to traditional TO-262 packages while offering 30% higher current handling. Of note, the WideLead through-hole package reduces lead resistance to less than half a milliohm, enabling a lead temperature 30% cooler than a standard TO-262 package at currents of 40A and 39% cooler at 60A.  Other packaging enhancements allow the WideLead to deliver 20% lower on resistance compared to the same MOSFET in a standard TO-262 package. Prices for the AUIRF3004WL and AUIRF1324WL, respectively, start at $1.58 and $1.35 each/100,000. For more information, contact Sian Cummins at INTERNATIONAL RECTIFIER, El Segundo, CA.
