Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Announces XSPairFET™ Buck-Boost MOSFET for Higher Power USB PD 3.1 EPR Applications

Offering a compact footprint to streamline PCB design, the AONZ66412 XSPairFET™ helps improve power density while meeting high-efficiency Type C performance demands

Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited (AOS) (Nasdaq: AOSL), a designer, developer, and global supplier of a broad range of discrete power devices, wide bandgap power devices, power management ICs, and modules, today announced its AONZ66412 XSPairFET™ MOSFET designed for Buck-Boost converters in USB PD 3.1 Extended Power Range (EPR) applications. The USB PD 3.1 EPR increases the USB-C maximum power up to 240W. AONZ66412 is defined to support the most commonly addressed power range of up to 140W at 28V, with two 40V N-Channel MOSFETs in a half-bridge configuration in a symmetric XSPairFET™ 5mmx6mm package.

The AONZ66412 can replace two single DFN5x6 MOSFETs, reducing the PCB area and simplifying the layout of the 4-switch buck-boost architecture while enabling a higher efficiency design. These benefits make the AONZ66412 ideal for buck-boost converters in Type-C USB 3.1 EPR applications, including notebook, USB hub, and power bank designs.

The AONZ66412 is an extension to the AOS XSPairFET™ lineup that features the latest bottom source packaging technology and lower parasitic inductance for reduced switch node ringing. Engineered with integrated high-side and low-side MOSFETs (3.8mOhms maximum on-resistance for each FET) within a DFN5x6 symmetric XSPairFET™ package, the low-side MOSFET source of the AONZ66412 is connected directly to a large paddle on the lead frame. This allows for improved thermals, as this paddle can be directly connected to the ground plane on the PCB. The improved package parasitics make 1MHz operation achievable, allowing inductor size and height to be reduced. AONZ66412 has been tested to achieve 97% efficiency @1MHz in typical USB PD 3.1 EPR conditions of 28V input, 17.6V output, and 8A load conditions.

“AOS specifically designed the AONZ66412 to meet EPR Type C PD application demands. AONZ66412 will reduce board space and improve power density to achieve the high-efficiency performance goals designers have set for this widely adopted USB-PD Type C application. AOS continues to be a leading innovator of buck-boost architecture solutions,” said Rack Tsai, Marketing Director of MOSFET product line at AOS.
