ROHM launches SiC MOSFETs in TOLL package that achieves both miniaturization and high-power capability

　　ROHM has begun mass production of the SCT40xxDLL series of SiC MOSFETs in TOLL (TO-Leadless) packages. Compared to conventional packages (TO-263-7L) with equivalent voltage ratings and on-resistance, these new packages offer approximately 39% improved thermal performance. This enables high-power handling despite their compact size and low profile. It is ideal for industrial equipment such as server power supplies and ESS (Energy Storage Systems) where the power density is increasing, and low-profile components are required to enable miniaturized product design.　　In applications like AI servers and compact PV inverters, the trend toward higher power ratings is occurring simultaneously with the contradictory demand for miniaturization, requiring power MOSFETs to achieve higher power density. Particularly in totem pole PFC circuits for slim power supplies, often called “the pizza box type,” stringent requirements demand thicknesses of 4mm or less for discrete semiconductors.　　ROHM's new product addresses these needs by reducing component footprint by approximately 26% and achieving a low profile of 2.3mm thickness – roughly half that of conventional packaged products. Furthermore, while most standard TOLL package products are limited by a drain-source rated voltage of 650V, ROHM's new products support up to 750V. This allows for lower gate resistance and increased safety margin for surge voltages, contributing to reduced switching losses.　　The lineup consists of six models with on-resistance ranging from 13mΩ to 65mΩ, with mass production started in September 2025 (sample price: $37.0/unit, tax excluded). 　　Product Lineup　　Application Examples　　・Industrial equipment: Power supplies for AI servers and data centers, PV inverters, ESS (energy storage systems)　　・Consumer equipment: General power supplies　　EcoSiC™ Brand　　EcoSiC™ is a brand of devices that utilize silicon carbide (SiC), which is attracting attention in the power device field for performance that surpasses silicon (Si). ROHM independently develops technologies essential for the evolution of SiC, from wafer fabrication and production processes to packaging, and quality control methods. At the same time, we have established an integrated production system throughout the manufacturing process, solidifying our position as a leading SiC supplier.• EcoSiC™ is a trademark or registered trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd.　　Terminology　　Totem Pole PFC Circuit　　A highly efficient power factor correction circuit configuration that reduces diode losses by using MOSFETs as rectifier elements. The adoption of SiC MOSFETs enables high voltage withstand capability, high efficiency, and high-temperature operation for the power supply.

Furthermore, by using a phototransistor with analog output as the receiver, the sensor achieves a response time of 10µs. This dual combination enables high-speed, accurate identification of fine lines as narrow as 0.1mm - previously difficult to detect with conventional LED light sources. As an addition to the existing digital output sensor “RPR-0720” series, RPR-0730 expands capability to applications requiring faster sensing, such as print detection in copiers, label printers, or rotational detection in motors and gears.　　The package is ultra-compact at 2.0mm × 1.0mm × 0.55mm and employs a visible light filtering resin to suppress interference from ambient light or sunlight. This enables stable detection even in environments with varying light conditions, such as factories or outdoors. The sensor can also be easily integrated into equipment requiring installation in small, confined spaces, like inside conveyors or precision instruments, making it suitable for a wider range of applications.　　Mass production of the new product commenced in October 2025 (sample price: $2.2/unit, tax excluded).　　Going forward, ROHM will continue to leverage its development expertise in light-emitting and light-receiving elements to create sensing products that meet customer needs, contributing to the miniaturization and enhanced convenience of various devices.　　Application Examples　　•Print detection, paper feed/jam detection in label printers, copiers, shredders, etc.　　•Object detection of packages/specimens, workpiece position detection in conveyance systems, automatic inspection equipment, etc.　　•Motor/gear rotational detection in industrial robots, etc.　　Terminology　　Photo reflector　　A type of optical sensor combining an emitting element and a receiving element. It illuminates an object and detects the intensity of the reflected light to measure the presence or distance of an object.　　VCSELL　　Abbreviation for Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting LASER.

ROHM’s Three-Phase Brushless DC Motor Gate Driver Achieving FET Heat Reduction while Suppressing EMI

　　ROHM has developed the “BD67871MWV-Z” three-phase brushless DC motor gate driver for medium voltage applications (12 to 48V systems). By incorporating ROHM’s proprietary gate drive technology TriC3™, it greatly reduces FET’s switching loss while maintaining low EMI – traditionally a trade-off in motor driver ICs.　　Motors account for approximately 60% of global electricity consumption, making control technology which affects energy efficiency, increasingly critical. In 12V to 48V motor drive applications, a simple configuration where an MCU controls three gate drivers has been the mainstream. However, in recent years, demands for high efficiency and precise control have grown, accelerating the adoption of solutions combining an MCU with an integrated three-phase motor driver. Further, a technical challenge in three-phase motor drivers has been the trade-off between “power consumption reduction” and “noise / EMI (electro-magnetic interference) reduction,”.　　BD67871MWV-Z features ROHM's proprietary Active Gate Drive technology “TriC3™”, which rapidly senses voltage information from the external power FETs and adjust gate drive current accordingly in real-time. This greatly reduces FETs’ switching loss (and hence heat generation) FET power consumption during switching while simultaneously suppressing ringing to achieve low EMI.　　Compared to ROHM's conventional constant-current drive products, TriC3™ gate drive has been demonstrated in actual motors that FET heat generation by approximately 35% while maintaining equivalent EMI levels. Furthermore, BD67871MWV-Z adopts UQFN28 package and pin layout which are commonly used in motor driver ICs for medium-voltage industrial equipment applications, contributing to reduced engineering effort required in circuit modifications and new designs.　　Mass production of the new product commenced in September 2025 (sample price: $5.5/unit, tax excluded).　　ROHM also offer general-purpose motor drivers (BD67870MWV-Z, BD67872MWV-Z) with the same package and pin configuration as the new product, designed for constant-voltage drive. From general-purpose types to the value-added types featuring the new TriC3™, we offer a comprehensive product lineup to supports a wide variety of applications and use cases. We are committed to contributing to improved motor efficiency, enhanced application functionality, and reduced power consumption.　　Application Examples　　•Industrial Equipment: Various motors such as electric drills/drivers and industrial fans　　•Consumer Appliances: Various motors used in vacuum cleaners, air purifiers, air conditioners, ventilation fans and E-bikes (electric-assist sports bicycles)　　TriC3™　　A multi-step constant current drive technology developed by ROHM. By controlling gate current in three steps, it achieves high-speed, high-efficiency operation while minimizing EMI by suppressing ringing.　　• TriC3™ is a trademark or registered trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd.　　Terminology　　EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)　　EMI is used as an indicator of how much noise a product generates during operation, potentially causing malfunctions in surrounding ICs or systems. “Low EMI” means the product generates less noise.　　Ringing　　High-frequency oscillations or overshoot occurring during switching. This arises from the resonation between inductance and capacitance, including parasitic elements in the circuit. In the context of motor driving, ringing happens when the power MOSFETs are turned on and off.

TAIYO YUDEN Commercializes 1005M-Size Embeddable Multilayer Ceramic Capacitor with 22-μF Capacitance for AI Servers

　　TAIYO YUDEN CO., LTD. has commercialized and begun mass production of embeddable multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) that achieves a capacitance of 22-μF in a 1005M size (1.0 x 0.5 mm).　　This ceramic capacitor is an MLCC designed for decoupling applications on IC power lines used in AI servers and other types of information devices.　　Components embedded in a board require high precision in terms of flatness of the external electrodes for connection to the circuit. With respect to this requirement, TAIYO YUDEN has commercialized an embeddable MLCC that achieves a 22-μF capacitance in a 1005M size by enhancing external electrode formation technology and other elemental technologies.　　Mass production of the capacitor began at our Tamamura Plant (Sawa District, Gunma Prefecture) in August 2025. Samples are available for 20 yen per unit.　　Technology Background　　AI servers and other types of devices with advanced information processing capabilities are equipped with ICs that consume extremely large amounts of power. For decoupling purposes in such power supply circuits, small, high-capacity MLCCs are required to handle large currents.　　Additionally, to minimize circuit loss and noise, it is important to route the power supply circuit close to the ICs. Traditional power supply circuits are routed around ICs. But, technological developments are progressing, allowing them to be placed closer, such as on the back of the board or directly under the ICs. Thus, embeddable MLCCs need to be equipped with high-precision external electrodes to connect to the lines.　　To satisfy this need, TAIYO YUDEN has improved its external electrode formation technology and commercialized 1005M-size embeddable MLCC with a capacitance of 22 μF.　　TAIYO YUDEN is continuing to develop new MLCCs with higher capacitance and other distinguishing features.　　■ Application　　Decoupling applications on IC power lines used in AI servers and other types of information devices

ROHM Launches 2-in-1 SiC Molded Module “DOT-247”

　　ROHM has developed the "DOT-247," a 2-in-1 SiC molded module (SCZ40xxDTx, SCZ40xxKTx), ideal for industrial applications such as PV inverters, UPS systems, and semiconductor relays. The module retains the versatility of the widely adopted "TO-247" package while achieving high design flexibility and power density.　　The DOT-247 features a combined structure consisting of two TO-247 packages. This design enables the use of large chips, which were structurally difficult to accommodate in the TO-247 package, and achieves low on-resistance through an unique internal structure. Additionally, through optimized package structure, thermal resistance has been reduced by approximately 15% and inductance by approximately 50% compared to the TO-247. This enables a power density 2.3 times higher than the TO-247 in a half-bridge configuration –achieving the same power conversion circuit in approximately half the volume.　　The new products featuring the DOT-247 package are available in two topologies: half-bridge and common-source. Currently, two-level inverters are the mainstream in PV inverters, but there is growing demand for multi-level circuits such as three-level NPC, three-level T-NPC, and five-level ANPC to meet the need for higher voltages. In the switching sections of these circuits, topologies such as half-bridge and common-source are mixed –making custom products necessary in many cases when using conventional SiC modules.　　To address this challenge, ROHM has developed each of these two topologies—the smallest building blocks of multi-level circuits—into a 2-in-1 module. This enables flexibility to support various configurations such as NPC circuits and DC-DC converters, while significantly reducing the number of components and mounting area, and achieving circuit miniaturization compared to discrete components.　　Evaluation boards will also be made available progressively to facilitate evaluation during application design. For more information, please contact a sales representative or visit the contact page on ROHM’s website.　　Product Lineup　　☆:Under Development　　AEC-Q101 is an automotive electronics reliability standard established by the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC).　　The Q101 standard is specifically focused on discrete semiconductor components.　　Application Examples　　PV inverters, semiconductor relays, UPS (uninterruptible power supply), ePTO, and boost converters for FCVs (fuel cell vehicles).　　AI servers (eFuse), EV charging stations, etc.　　Sales Information　　Pricing: $140/unit (samples, excluding tax)　　Availability: ROHM construct mass production (September 2025)　　Products compliant with the automotive reliability standard AEC-Q101 are scheduled to begin sample shipments in October 2025.　　Comprehensive Support　　ROHM is committed to providing application-level support, including the use of in-house motor testing equipment. A variety of supporting materials are also offered, such as simulations and thermal designs that enable quick evaluation and adoption of DOT-247 products. An evaluation kit for double-pulse testing is already available, allowing immediate testing, while an evaluation kit for 3-phase inverters is currently under preparation, with reference designs scheduled to be released from November 2025.　　• About the DOT-247 design models　　SPICE models: Available on the product web pages for each part number　　LTspice® models: Scheduled to be available for three-level NPC from October 2025 on the web pagesLTspice® is a registered trademark of Analog Devices, Inc.When using third-party trademarks, please adhere to the usage guidelines specified by the rights holder.　　For details, please contact a sales representative or visit the contact page on ROHM’s website.　　EcoSiC™ Brand　　EcoSiC™ is a brand of devices that utilize silicon carbide (SiC), which is attracting attention in the power device field for performance that surpasses silicon (Si). ROHM independently develops technologies essential for the evolution of SiC, from wafer fabrication and production processes to packaging, and quality control methods. At the same time, we have established an integrated production system throughout the manufacturing process, solidifying our position as a leading SiC supplier.• EcoSiC™ is a trademark or registered trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd.　　Terminology　　Half-bridge/ Common-source　　A basic configuration of a power conversion circuit consisting of two MOSFETs. In a half-bridge configuration, the MOSFETs are connected in series, one above the other, and the output is taken from the connection point. By switching the upper and lower MOSFETs alternately, the output voltage can be switched between positive and negative, making this configuration widely used as the basic structure for high-efficiency power conversion in inverters and motor drive circuits.　　Common Source is a configuration where the source terminals of the two MOSFETs are connected, and the output is taken from each drain. By grouping the source terminals, the gate drive circuit can be simplified, making it suitable for applications such as multilevel inverters.　　Types of NPC-type multi-level circuits　　NPC (Neutral Point Clamped) is a multi-level circuit configuration that divides the output voltage into three levels (+, 0, and -) to reduce voltage stress on the switching devices. The "0V" state is created by the neutral point, which is the contact point located between the positive and negative voltages.　　T-NPC (T-type NPC) replaces the diode used to stabilize the neutral point with switching devices such as MOSFETs, enabling more efficient operation. ANPC (Active NPC) actively controls the potential of the neutral point itself using a switch, achieving smoother output waveforms and high-precision power conversion. T-NPC and ANPC are suitable for applications requiring higher output and efficiency.　　ePTO (electric Power Take-Off)　　A system that uses the power from an electric vehicle's motor or battery to drive external work machinery or equipment (such as hydraulic pumps or compressors). This is an electrified version of the PTO (Power Take-Off) used in conventional engine vehicles, and its adoption is advancing in environmentally friendly commercial vehicles and work vehicles.
