Nexperia's new 8-inch wafer production line in Manchester is launched. The first batch of products is the industry leading Qrr quality factor 80 V/100 V MOSFET
The new production line has increased production capacity and strives to meet timely supply requirements
Nijmegen, June 24, 2021: Nexperia, an expert in the field of basic semiconductor devices, announced today that the new 8-inch wafer production line in Manchester, England, was launched, and the first batch of products used the latest NextPower chip technology for low RDS (on) and low Qrr, 80 V and 100 V MOSFETs. The new production line will immediately expand Nexperia's production capacity, and the new PSMN3R9-100YSF (100 V) and PSMN3R5-80YSF (80 V) devices will have extremely low Qrr quality factors (RDS (on) x Qrr) in the industry.
Mike Becker, product manager of Nexperia, pointed out: "In view of the global semiconductor shortage, Nexperia actively invests in global manufacturing plants to increase production capacity, including MOSFET production equipment in Manchester and the Philippines, which is good news for the buyer. The performance of the new MOSFETs also excites designers. These MOSFETs are very suitable for various switch applications, and can also replace products from other suppliers.
”
NextPower 80 V and 100 V chip MOSFETs can significantly reduce RDS (on), compared to the previous generation of 100 V devices with 7 m Ω, while the new device has only 4.3 m Ω, greatly improving efficiency. For 100 V devices, NextPower technology also provides an extremely low Qrr of 44 nC, effectively reducing peak and EMI interference. Overall, the Qrr quality factor of 100 V devices is on average 61% lower than that of competitors' similar products.
The new 80 V and 100 V MOSFETs are packaged using Nexperia LFPAK56E copper clamp technology with high thermal and electrical performance. Devices are widely used in switch applications, including AC/DC, DC/DC, and motor control.
