Integrated FET module delivers 50% space-savings in synchronous buck converters

( 01 Jan 2008 )

Fairchild Semiconductor’s FDMS9600S and FDMS9620S are two highly integrated modules that significantly reduce board space while providing the ability to achieve higher conversion efficiency in synchronous buck designs. Each module in the FDMS96xx series combines a high-side and low-side N-Channel MOSFET and one monolithically integrated Schottky diode into a single, space-efficient, 5mm x 6mm MLP package. This integration results in a highly efficient solution for severely space-constrained applications such as notebook computers, small form factor desktops, media center PCs, ultra-dense servers, blade servers, advanced gaming systems, graphic cards, networking and telecom equipment, and other DC-DC designs.

Each FDMS96xx module integrates three separate discrete components into a single MLP package, thereby saving more than 50 percent board space. Conventional synchronous buck converters typically include two SO8-packaged MOSFETs and one Schottky diode.
