Toshiba Debuts 600V Super Junction MOSFET DTMOS IV High Speed Diode Series
Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc., (TAEC) introduced a new lineup of high-speed diodes (HSD): the TK16A60W5, TK31J60W5 and TK39J60W5. Based on Toshiba's fourth generation 600V system super junction MOSFET DTMOS IV series, the new lineup of HSDs improve power efficiency in switching power supplies, micro inverters, adaptors, and photovoltaic inverters. Using the latest single epitaxial process, this series has achieved the industry's highest level of RON•A(*) and high speed parasitic diodes. The TK16A60W5, TK31J60W5 and TK39J60W5 can further reduce loss by achieving a recovery time that is one third that of previous models, which significantly contributes to improvements in power efficiency.

Super junction MOSFETs offer ultra-low on resistance without power loss penalties. Using Toshiba's state-of-the-art single epitaxial process, the fourth generation super junction 600V DTMOS IV MOSFET series provides a 30 percent reduction in RON•A, a figure of merit (FOM) for MOSFETs, when compared to its predecessor, DTMOS III. A reduction in RON•A makes it possible to house lower RON chips in the same packages, helping to improve the efficiency and reduce the size of power supplies.
According to Norio Nakashima, business development specialist for TAEC, "Toshiba's DTMOS-IV technology uses a deep-trench process that narrows the lateral SJ pitch, leading to optimized overall performance. As a result, our new series gives customers a highly efficient switching device at an excellent cost-performance ratio."

Features include: Compared to previous models, high speed parasitic diodes cut reverse recovery time by approximately one third; A 30 percent reduction in RON•A compared to conventional products (DTMOS III); Small increases in low ON-resistance and recovery time at high temperatures due to the use of the single epitaxial process; A wide lineup for ON-resistance (0.65 to 0.074Ohms); A wide-ranging package lineup
Toshiba's new 600V System Super Junction MOSFET DTMOS IV HSD Series is available now.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
