Driver Plus FET Modules Reduces Significant Power Losses

  


  

Fairchild Semiconductor’s FDMF8704 and FDMF8704V optimize efficiency across high, medium and light loads in DC-DC applications.

Most power supplys do not run at 100 percent load all the time and delivering the right performance at the right current levels reduces power losses for these applications.


Average power losses across the full operating range are reduced by 14 percent compared to conventional discrete solutions by using Fairchild’s driver plus FET multi-chip modules, and these systems can more easily meet the demand for higher efficiency mandated by energy regulatory programs such as Energy Star.

The FDMF8704 and FDMF8704V are FET plus driver power stage solutions that integrate one driver IC, three power MOSFETs and one Schottky diode into an 8mm x 8mm MLP package, conserving valuable PCB real estate. The FDMF8704 is capable of operating at 1MHz eliminating passive components to further reduce board space and lower BOM costs. Compared to conventional discrete solutions, Fairchild’s DrMOS saves more than 72 percent of valuable board space.

The FDMF8704 and the FDMF8704V are both based on the Intel® specification for DrMOS. The FDMF8704 maximizes efficiency through a low-impedance driver IC and Fairchild’s latest PowerTrench® MOSFET technology. The FDMF8704 is ideal for applications such as servers that need to maximize efficiency. The FDMF8704V features a convenient built-in voltage regulator block for applications with only a 12V rail available.
