IR Expands StrongIRFET™Family with New 75V MOSFETs Featuring Ultra-low Rds(on) for Industrial Applications

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. — International Rectifier, IR ^® (NYSE: IRF), a world leader in power management technology, today announced the expansion of its StrongIRFET™ MOSFET portfolio to include 75V devices for a wide variety of industrial applications including power tools, Light Electric Vehicle (LEV) inverters, DC motor drives, Li-Ion battery pack protection, Hot-Swap and Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS) secondary-side synchronous rectification.

The new family of 75V StrongIRFET™ power MOSFETs features ultra-low on-state resistance (Rds(on)) for improved performance in low frequency applications, very high-current carrying capability, soft body diode, and 3V typical threshold voltage to improve noise immunity. Each device in the family is 100% avalanche tested at the industry's highest avalanche current levels to ensure the most robust solution for demanding industrial applications. The devices are offered in through-hole packages.

"Featuring ultra-low Rds(on) and 100% avalanche tested to demanding industry levels to ensure robustness, IR's family of 75V StrongIRFET™ devices offers a selection of benchmark performance MOSFETs optimized for the industrial market," said David Schroeder, Executive Director of Marketing for IR's Power Management Devices Business Unit.

Pricing for the IRFB7746 begins at US $0.28 each in 10,000 unit quantities. Production orders are available immediately. Prices are subject to change.
