High SOA MOSFET is optimised for 12V hot swap and eFuse applications

The AONS30300 30V MOSFET released by Alpha and Omega Semiconductor has low on-resistance and a high safe operating area (SOA) which makes it suitable for demanding applications such as hot swap and eFuse, said the company.

A high SOA is essential in server hot swap applications where the MOSFET needs to be robust to manage the high inrush current effectively. The AONS30300 delivers high SOA robustness under 10VDS with 10ms pulse width. It has an SOA limit of around 48V. 

The AONS30300is available in a compact DFN 5.0 x 6.0mm package and has a maximum Rd(son) of 0.58mOhm at an applied gate-source voltage equal to 10VGS.  The MOSFET is rated at Tj=175 degrees C. 

“High reliability is an essential metric in data centre infrastructure. That’s why MOSFETs that feature elevated SOA are critical in today’s hot swap applications where designers must specify the most robust and reliable components to meet server demands,” commented Peter H Wilson, senior director of MOSFET product line at Alpha and Omega Semiconductor. “We designed the AONS30300 with high SOA capabilities and low on-resistance to help our customers meet these challenging application requirements and uptime goals,” he said.

The AONS30300 is immediately available in production quantities with a lead-time of 16 weeks.
