Littelfuse introduces the first automotive-grade PolarP P-channel enhanced mode power MOSFET

Littelfuse Corporation is an industrial technology manufacturing company dedicated to powering a sustainable, connected and safer world. The company announced the launch of the first automotive PolarP™ P-channel power MOSFET IXTY2P50PA. This innovative product design meets the demanding requirements of automotive applications, providing superior performance and reliability.

The most distinctive feature of the -500 V, -2 A IXTY2P50PA is its AEC-Q101 certification, a feature that makes it ideal for automotive applications. This certification ensures that MOSFETs meet the stringent quality and reliability standards of the automotive industry. With this certification, automotive manufacturers can be confident that the IXTY2P50PA delivers superior application performance and reliability.

One of the main features of this product is the low conduction loss. This P-channel power MOSFET has a maximum field resistance of 4.2Ω, which reduces power consumption, reduces heat, and improves the efficiency of the final application. In addition, the MOSFET has excellent switching performance with a gate charge as low as 11.9nC for fast and efficient operation.

Another key advantage is its durability even in demanding working environments and applications. With dynamic dv/dt and avalanche ratings, this MOSFET withstands harsh conditions and delivers reliable performance. This combination makes it an excellent choice for automotive applications where durability and reliability are required.

In addition, the IXTY2P50PA high voltage automotive P-channel MOSFETs feature a surface-mounted miniature TO-252 (DPAK) form factor for high power density PCB designs. This compact size can significantly save PCB space, resulting in a more efficient and compact design. Car manufacturers can benefit from this space-saving design to optimize their applications and achieve greater functionality in a limited space.

The PolarP series is ideal for a wide range of automotive electronics and industrial applications, including:

● Automotive ECU

● Automotive sensor circuit

● High voltage side switch

● Push-pull amplifier

● Automatic test equipment

● Current regulator

Commenting on the launch of the IXTY2P50PA, Raymon Zhou, Product Marketing Manager at Littelfuse, said: "We are excited to introduce the first automotive grade PolarP P-channel power MOSFET to the market. With superior performance and reliability, the IXTY2P50PA is ideal for demanding automotive applications. With its AEC-Q101 certification and competitive specifications, we believe this MOSFET will be of great benefit to automotive manufacturers."
