KUALA LUMPUR, May 18 (Bernama) -- Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation (Toshiba) has launched “SSM14N956L”, a 12V common-drain N-channel MOSFET with a current rating of 20A, for use in battery protection circuits in lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery packs, such as those for mobile devices.
Li-ion battery packs rely on highly robust protection circuits to reduce heat generation while charging and discharging as well as to enhance safety.
These circuits must feature low power consumption and high-density packaging, requiring MOSFETs that are small and thin and that deliver low On-resistance.
The new product uses Toshiba’s micro-process, ensuring both low power loss, due to industry-leading low On-resistance characteristics, and low standby power, realised by industry-leading low gate-source leakage current characteristics.
According to Toshiba in a statement, these qualities help to extend battery operating hours.
It can be used in consumer electronics and office as well as personal devices with a Li-ion battery pack, including smartphones, tablets, power banks, wearable devices, game consoles and compact digital cameras.
Toshiba will continue to develop MOSFET products for protection circuits in devices powered by Li-ion battery packs.
