Vishay is the only synchronous voltage regulator in the industry that can output more than 100W power in a 5mm x 5mm package

Recently, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE) announced the launch of its new 2A to 10A device, the SiC46x, with an input voltage of 4.5V to 60V, and expanded its microBUCK® synchronous buck regulator. The Vishay Siliconi × SiC46× device is space-saving, combining a high-performance N-channel trench MOSFET and a controller in a small MLP55-27L package for high efficiency, high power density and long-term reliability. Simplified thermal management.

Today's regulators release high-side and low-side MOSFETs with on-resistance five times lower than competing devices. The quiescent current of these devices is extremely low, achieving high efficiency over the entire load range with peak efficiency of 98%. High efficiency reduces power loss and helps system designers increase power density. The output current of the SiC46x series regulators is the industry leader and the only device that can output more than 100W in a 5mm × 5mm package.

The high efficiency coupled with the excellent thermal design of the MLP55-27L package allows the regulator to operate at lower temperatures, thereby increasing long-term reliability and eliminating the need for heat sinks. In this way, designers can reduce PCB size, simplify thermal management, and reduce system cost.

The SiC46x series regulators have a wide input voltage range and the output voltage can be adjusted from 0.95*VIN to 0.8V for a variety of applications including industrial and factory automation DC/DC converters and programmable logic control. (PLC), home automation equipment, industrial computing, base station power supplies, wall-mounted transformer regulators, robots, drones, battery management systems, power tools, electric bicycles, vending machines, ATM machines, and slot machines.

The device's COT architecture features ultra-fast transient response and small output inductors, allowing tight regulation of ripple at light loads. Moreover, regardless of the type of output capacitor used, including low ESR ceramic capacitors, the regulator maintains loop stability. These devices integrate reliable protection features including output over-voltage protection (OVP), over-current protection (OCP), short-circuit protection with automatic retries (SCP), over-temperature protection (OTP) and power good flag (PG).
