Fairchild Semiconductor offers power supply designers a Power-SPM module that increases efficiency in power supplies to meet stringent ENERGYSTAR requirements. The Power-SPM FPP06R001 is a highly integrated synchronous rectifier module that increases power efficiency, system ruggedness and space efficiency in power supplies designs. Incorporating two PowerTrench® MOSFETs and a high current gate driver in a compact transfer-molded package, the Power-SPM simplifies board design, eliminates up to 10 discrete components and reduces board space by 20 percent. It provides 10 percent lower on-resistance and 16 percent lower stray inductance compared to discrete solutions, which results in lower thermal dissipation and reduced voltage stress. Its high efficiency is instrumental in helping power supply designs meet next generation ENERGYSTAR requirements. These requirements specify that power supplies must achieve 85 percent or greater efficiency at normal output load conditions.
Fairchild is at the forefront of solving energy-efficiency challenges. The ENERGYSTAR requirement for power supply units will soon increase to 88 percent minimum efficiency at the medium output load condition. This Power-SPM module will be instrumental in helping power supplies meet this requirement, says Donghye Cho, Director of Fairchild’s Power Supply System team.
