High-efficiency bipolar transistors minimize conduction losses in automotive designs
Delivering high conduction efficiency and thermal performance, the DXTN and DXTP 78Q and 80Q series of bipolar transistors, from Diodes Incorporated, enable higher power density in automotive switching and control applications.
Diodes Incorporated supply the DXTN and DXTP 78Q and 80Q series of bipolar transistors providing a broad range of collector-emitter breakdown voltage ratings from 30V to 100V. These transistors handle continuous currents up to 10A, and peak pulses up to 20A, supporting 12V, 24V, and 48V automotive systems.
With a saturation as low as 17mV, the transistors reduce conduction losses by up to 50% compared to previous generations, and low on-resistance down to 12mΩ further minimizes heat generation in gate driving, power line switching and dc-dc conversation tasks.
For space-constrained designs, the transistors are supplied in a surface-mount PowerDI®3333-8 package measuring 3.3mm x 3.3mm. This compact footprint reduces PCB footprint by up to 75% relative to traditional SOT223 alternatives, and includes a large underside heatsink.
The transistors have an operating temperature of up to 175°C, ensuring reliability in harsh environments, as well as high ESD robustness with human body model (HBM) rating of 4kV and a charged device model (CDM) rating of 1kV.
