ROHM Develops an Ultra-Compact MOSFET Featuring Industry-Leading* Low ON-Resistance Ideal for Fast Charging Applications

　　ROHM has developed a 30V N-channel MOSFET — AW2K21 — in a common-source configuration that achieves an industry-leading ON-resistance of 2.0mΩ (typ.) in a compact 2.0mm × 2.0mm package.　　With the rise of compact devices featuring large-capacity batteries, such as smartphones, the need for fast charging functionality to shorten charging times continues to grow. These applications require bidirectional protection to prevent reverse current flow to peripheral ICs and other components when not actively supplying or receiving power. What’s more, fast charging involves high current power transfer, leading smartphone manufacturers to demand stringent specifications for MOSFETs, including a maximum current rating of 20A, breakdown voltage between 28V and 30V, and an ON-resistance of 5mΩ or less. However, meeting these requirements with standard solutions typically necessitates the use of two large low ON-resistance MOSFETs, increasing board space along with mounting complexity.　　In response, ROHM developed an ultra-compact low ON-resistance MOSFET optimized for fast high-power charging. The AW2K21 adopts a proprietary structure that enhances cell density while minimizing the ON-resistance per unit chip area. Two MOSFETs are integrated into a single package, allowing a single part to support bidirectional protection applications (commonly required in power supply and charging circuits).　　The proprietary structure also places the drain terminal on the top surface, unlike on the backside in standard vertical trench MOS structures. This enables the use of a WLCSP, which achieves a larger chip-to-package area ratio that further reduces ON-resistance per unit area. As a result, the new product not only minimizes power loss but also supports high current operation, making it ideal for high-power fast charging applications despite its ultra-compact size.　　For example, in power supply and charging circuits for compact devices, standard solutions typically require two 3.3mm × 3.3mm MOSFETs. In contrast, the AW2K21 can achieve the same functionality with a single 2.0mm × 2.0mm unit, reducing the footprint and ON-resistance by approximately 81% and 33%, respectively. Even compared to similarly sized GaN HEMTs, ON-resistance is decreased by up to 50%, contributing to lower power consumption and increased space savings across a variety of applications.　　The AW2K21 is also suitable for use as a unidirectional protection MOSFET in load switch applications, where it maintains the industry’s lowest ON-resistance. At the same time, ROHM is further pushing the limits of miniaturization with the development of an even smaller 1.2mm × 1.2mm model.　　Going forward, ROHM remains dedicated to supporting the miniaturization and energy efficiency of electronic systems through compact, high-performance solutions that contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.　　Key Product Characteristics　　Application Examples　　• Smartphones　　• VR (Virtual Reality) headsets　　• Compact printers　　• Tablets　　　　 • Wearables　　　　　　　　　　 • LCD monitors　　• Laptops　　　　 • Portable gaming consoles　　　 • Drones　　And other applications equipped with fast charging capability.　　Terminology　　MOSFET (Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor)　　A field-effect transistor (FET) featuring a metal oxide semiconductor structure (the most commonly used type). It consists of three terminals: gate, drain, and source. Applying a voltage to the gate (control terminal) regulates current flow from the drain to the source.　　N-channel MOSFETs turn ON when a positive voltage is applied to the gate relative to the source. A common-source configuration MOSFET integrates two transistor elements that share a single source terminal.　　ON-Resistance　　The resistance between the Drain and Source of a MOSFET when it is in the ON state. A smaller RDS(on) reduces power loss during operation.　　Breakdown Voltage　　The maximum voltage that can be applied between the drain and source terminals of a MOSFET without causing damage. Exceeding this limit results in dielectric breakdown, potentially leading to device failure or malfunction.　　WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip Scale Package)　　An ultra-compact package in which terminals and wiring are formed directly on the wafer before separated into individual chips. Unlike general packages where the chips are cut from the wafer and then molded with resin to form terminals, WLCSP allows the package size to match the chip itself, making it possible to further reduce size.　　GaN HEMT　　GaN (Gallium Nitride) is a compound semiconductor material used in next-generation power devices. It offers superior physical properties over conventional silicon, enabling higher frequency operation with faster switching speeds. HEMT stands for High Electron Mobility Transistor.

Murata Launches World’s First 10µF/50Vdc MLCC in 0805-inch Size for Automotive Applications

　　Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has announced the new GCM21BE71H106KE02 multilayer ceramic capacitor (MLCC) has entered mass production. The device is the world's first 0805-inch size (2.0 x 1.25 mm) MLCC to offer a capacitance of 10µF with a 50Vdc rating and is specifically engineered for automotive applications*. This cutting-edge product marks a significant advancement in MLCC design, delivering a smaller 0805-inch package while maintaining capacitance, voltage rating, and MLCC reliability.　　Advancements in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) technologies necessitate deploying an increased number of integrated circuits (ICs) within vehicle systems. This surge in ICs simultaneously leads to a greater demand for supporting high-capacitance passive components while imposing tighter spatial constraints – as a greater number of capacitors must be accommodated on increasingly crowded automotive printed circuit boards (PCBs).　　Designed for 12V automotive power lines, the GCM21BE71H106KE02 capacitor leverages Murata’s proprietary ceramic material and thinning technologies to help engineers to save PCB space and reduce the overall capacitor count, resulting in smaller, more efficient, and reliable automotive systems. As the first automotive-specific MLCC to achieve a 10µF capacitance with a 50Vdc rating in the compact 0805-inch size the GCM21BE71H106KE02 represents a significant advancement in capacitance efficiency. It offers roughly 2.1 times the capacitance of Murata’s previous 4.7µF/50Vdc product, despite sharing the same physical size. Furthermore, compared to the previous 10µF/50Vdc MLCC in the larger 1206-inch size (3.2 x 1.6 mm), the new MLCC occupies approximately 53% less space, providing substantial space savings for automotive applications.　　Murata will continue to pursue further miniaturization and increased capacitance of MLCCs, while expanding its product lineup to meet the evolving needs of the automotive market. These efforts will support the industry as they look to develop higher-performance and more multifunctional vehicles. In addition, by downsizing electronic components, Murata aims to reduce material usage and improve production efficiency per unit, helping to lower electricity consumption at its manufacturing sites and reduce overall environmental impact.

ROHM at PCIM Europe 2025: Powerful Highlights for E-Mobility and Industrial Applications

　　From May 6th to 8th ROHM will exhibit at the PCIM Expo & Conference, the leading international event for Power Electronics, Intelligent Motion, Renewable Energy and Energy Management, taking place in Nuremberg. On its booth 304 in hall 9, ROHM will showcase reference projects with renowned partners and present the evolution of its package designs and evaluation boards.　　"PCIM 2025 in Nuremberg is the meeting place for innovation and progress in power electronics. This is where the brightest minds in the industry come together to shape the future of e-mobility and industrial applications. We will be presenting great customer applications to showcase the possibilities offered by our products in the best possible way. Whether in the PV industry or e-mobility sectors – we are involved and would like to talk to our customers on site about the key projects of the future," says Wolfram Harnack, President at ROHM Semiconductor Europe.　　Highlights of ROHM’s presence at PCIM 2025 include:　　For automotive applications, ROHM will exhibit an inverter unit utilizing the TRCDRIVE pack™ that consists of a 2-in-1 SiC Molded Module. Valeo and ROHM have been collaborating since 2022, initially focusing on technical exchange to enhance the performance and efficiency of motor inverters, a key component in the propulsion systems of electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs).　　Power solutions for on-board chargers (OBCs), essential for e-mobility applications, will also be on the booth. ROHM will showcase the new EcoSiC™ molded power modules suitable for OBCs, along with OBC applications adopting ROHM’s power semiconductor devices.　　ROHM’s Power Eco Family products: ROHM has grouped the four product lines of power semiconductors under the brand concept “Power Eco Family” and is contributing to the development of a sustainable ecosystem through improved application performance. We will show featured solutions and case studies at the booth.　　In this context, one application example is the new GaN Lineup: ROHM’s EcoGaN™ series of 650V GaN HEMTs in the TOLL package has been adopted for AI server power supplies by Murata Power Solutions, a subsidiary of the Murata Manufacturing Group and a leading supplier of electronic components, batteries and power supplies in Japan. Integrating ROHM’s GaN HEMTs, which combine low loss operation with high-speed switching performance, in Murata Power Solutions’ 5.5kW AI server power supply unit achieves greater efficiency and miniaturization.　　For more information, please refer to AMEYA360’s related news release.　　The details of the Power Eco Family are as follows.　　●　EcoSiC™ is a brand of devices leveraging silicon carbide which is attracting attention in the power device field for performance that surpasses silicon.　　●　EcoGaN™ comprises compact, energy-efficient devices that utilize the low ON resistance, high-speed switching characteristics of GaN to achieve lower application power consumption, smaller peripheral components, and simpler designs requiring fewer parts.　　●　EcoIGBT™ is ROHM’s brand of IGBTs consisting of both devices and modules designed to meet the needs of high-voltage applications in the power device field.　　●　EcoMOS™ is ROHM's brand of silicon power MOSFETs designed for energy-efficient applications in the power device sector.　　During the fair, ROHM’s power experts will participate in several panel discussions and conference presentations. Additionally, they will hold poster sessions at the PCIM Europe 2025 conference.　　More information regarding ROHM’s key highlights at PCIM 2025 is available here: www.rohm.com/pcim　　*EcoSiC™, EcoGaN™, EcoIGBT™, EcoMOS™ and TRCDRIVE pack™ are trademarks or registered trademarks of ROHM Co., Ltd.
