Thanks to the part’s dV/dt and avalanche rating, it can operate in demanding environments and applications. The MOSFET offers −500-V drain-source voltage, −2-A avalanche current, 150-mJ avalanche energy, and 58-W power dissipation. It operates within a −55 to 150°C temperature range.
The key differentiator of the −500-V, –2-A IXTY2P50PA is its AEC-Q101 qualification. Another notable feature is its low conduction loss. With a maximum on-state resistance of 4.2 Ω, the part reduces power dissipation, decreases heat generation, and improves efficiency in end applications. In addition, the MOSFET provides good switching performance with a low gate charge of 11.9 nC, allowing for fast and efficient operation.
P-channel power MOSFETs can pair up with equivalent N-channel MOSFETs for a number of applications.
The PolarP Series is well-suited for a range of automotive electronics and industrial applications, including:
- Automotive ECUs
- Automotive sensor circuits
- High-side switches
- Push-pull amplifiers
- Automatic test equipment
- Current regulators
Regarding the launch of IXTY2P50PA, Raymon Zhou, Product Marketing Manager at Littelfuse, said, "We are thrilled to introduce the first automotive-grade PolarP P-Channel Power MOSFET to the market. The IXTY2P50PA offers exceptional performance and reliability, making it ideal for demanding automotive applications. With its AEC-Q101 qualification and competitive specifications, we believe this MOSFET will greatly benefit automotive manufacturers."
The PolarP power MOSFET is available now in reel packaging of 2,500 pieces.
