According to the company, the combination of the CoolMOS P7 technology with the SOT-223 package is suitable for applications such as chargers for smartphones, laptop adapters, TV power supplies and lighting.
The CoolMOS P7 is said to address the needs of the low power switched mode power supply market and to offer ease-of-use, improved form factors and a price competitive Superjunction technology.
According to the company, the thermal behaviour of the CoolMOS P7 in this package was assessed across several applications. When the SOT-223 was placed on a DPAK footprint, the temperature increased by a maximum of 2 to 3°C compared to a standard DPAK. With a size of the copper area at 20mm² or more, the thermal performance was equal to DPAK.
