ON Semiconductor Introduces Automotive
Industry’s Most Compact Intelligent Power
Module at Electronica 2016
ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy
efficient innovations, and a top 10 global automotive
semiconductor supplier following its recent acquisition of
Fairchild Semiconductor, has introduced the industry’s
most compact 650 volt (V), 50 ampere (A) automotive
qualified intelligent power module for controlling vehicle
air conditioning (A/C) compressors. The FAM65V05DF1
addresses numerous other high voltage auxiliary motor
applications in hybrid and electric vehicles and helps
designers increase the performance and efficiency of
applications while simultaneously reducing costs.
The FAM65V05DF1 uniquely integrates IGBTs,
freewheeling diodes and gate drivers in an automotive-
qualified 12 cm2 footprint package which is up to 40%
smaller than solutions assembled from multiple discrete
components. The device greatly simplifies and shortens
the process of designing the power stages of high voltage
automotive auxiliary inverters for A/C compressors and
oil pumps – applications that must comply with stringent
performance standards in demanding operating
environments and with tight space constraints.
ON Semiconductor’s broad portfolio of automotive
related products and technologies continues to address
the latest applications throughout the vehicle, as areas
such as automatic driver assistance systems (ADAS),
LED lighting, motor control, vehicle connectivity and
vehicle electrification evolve at a rapid pace. In addition,
the company’s products are important in helping enable
progress towards semi and fully autonomous vehicles
in the future.
The acquisition of Fairchild Semiconductor adds high
voltage, plus a significantly broadened range of medium
voltage devices, to a portfolio that already comprises
industry-leading low and medium power solutions for
traditional combustion engine vehicles as well as hybrid
and full electric cars.
Underlining ON Semiconductor’s strength and expertise
in addressing the high-performance, challenging
operating environments and quality requirements of the
automotive industry is the landmark figure of one billion
automotive ignition IGBTs sold to automakers worldwide
being recently surpassed. The company maintains
TS16949 certification, ISO26262 compliance, and has
a zero defect program leveraging its advanced design
techniques and testing methodologies.
At Electronica 2016, the company’s 400 square metre
booth will feature the latest products and innovations for
automotive as well as for the Internet of Things (IoT),
power management and motor control sectors. Among
a total of sixteen live demonstrations there will be
several focusing on automotive applications in the areas
of ignition IGBTs, ADAS, driver occupancy / in cabin
vision and monitoring, and laser front lighting. These
will show how the various products and technologies of
the new, expanded ON Semiconductor can be utilized
and combined to enable energy efficient innovations in
integrated systems throughout the vehicle.
ON Semiconductor Launches Advanced,
Integrated Solutions for Power Management
and Control at Electronica 2016
ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy
efficient innovations, has launched new intelligent
power module (IPM) technologies for industrial power
management and motor control applications.
Reinforcing the company’s position as a leading supplier
of IPMs, the company’s new STK57FU394AG-E (15A)
and STK5MFU3C1A-E (30A) are advanced 600 V IPMs
that integrate a power factor correction (PFC) converter,
