OptiMOS™ Linear FET 100V/150V/200V

Overview

Combining a low R_DS(on) with a wide safe operating area (SOA)

With Infineon’s OptiMOS™ Linear FET you can escape settling between on-state resistance (R_DS(on)) and linear mode capability – operation in the saturation region of an enhanced mode MOSFET. The OptiMOS™ Linear FET revolutionary approach offers the state-of-the-art R_DS(on) of a trench MOSFET together with the wide safe operating area (SOA) of a classic planar MOSFET.

This product is the perfect fit for hot-swap and e-fuse (electronic fuse) applications commonly found in telecom and battery management systems. OptiMOS™ Linear FET MOSFETs prevent damage at the load by limiting high in-rush currents.

Available in voltage classes of 100V, 150V and 200V, OptiMOS™ Linear FET reduce conduction losses, set up faster and have shorter intermissions.

Safe operating area (SOA) comparison

Whilst the OptiMOS™ 5 100V, 1.7mΩ power MOSFET has a safe operating area of 0.5A, the OptiMOS™ Linear FET version at the same R_DS(on)offers a much wider SOA of 11.5A (@ 54V, 10ms).

OptiMOS™ Linear FET 100V shows an R_DS(on) reduction of up to 58% when compared to the next best alternative. Furthermore, a wider SOA measured at 48V to 56V – a typical output voltage range of telecom systems – is achieved.

OptiMOS™ Linear FET is available in three voltage classes – 100V, 150V, and 200V – in either D²PAK or D²PAK 7pin package.
