Smaller, Tougher 650V and 800V MOSFETs from STMicroelectronics Leverage Power Package Innovation

Geneva, January 30, 2014 – STMicroelectronics is expanding three of its advanced high-voltage power MOSFET families with the introduction of two new power packages, making energy-conscious equipment such as battery chargers, solar microinverters and computer power supplies even more compact, robust and reliable.

ST’s advanced PowerFLAT™ 5×6 HV and PowerFLAT 5×6 VHV packages provide the large insulation path lengths and clearances required for operation at up to 650V or 800V, within the same 5mm x 6mm footprint of a standard 100V PowerFLAT 5×6. This is 52% smaller than the popular DPAK footprint. In addition, the package is only 1mm high and features a large exposed metal drain pad that maximizes heat dissipation into pc-board thermal vias.

This combination of features simultaneously increases high-voltage capability, ruggedness, reliability, and system power density.

ST is introducing three 650V MDmesh™ V MOSFETs in the PowerFLAT 5×6 HV package, priced from $2.20 for the STL12N65M5, and four 800V SuperMESH 5 MOSFETs in the PowerFLAT 5×6 VHV package, which is optimized for very high voltage ratings, priced from $1.50 for the STL2N80K5. All prices are for orders over 1000 pieces. 

In addition, ST has started sampling two new 600 V fast-switching MDmesh II Plus low Qg MOSFETs in PowerFLAT 5×6 HV.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
