Toshiba Launches Small-Size Low-Side Switch IPD for Automotive Application

Reduces the mounting areas by approximately 70% compared to existing products

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Corporation’s (TOKYO:6502) Semiconductor & Storage Products Company today announced the launch of a 1-channel low-side switch IPD (intelligent power device) that adopts a small-size package for use in automotive applications. Shipment starts from today.

The new product, "TPD1058FA", is fabricated with a BiCD process, allowing introduction of a small-size WSON10 package (3mm x 3mm) line-up. This reduces the mounting area by approximately 70% that of Toshiba existing products in a SOP-8 package^[1], contributing to the downsizing of equipment.

Key Features:

• BiCD process（N-channel DMOS output@V_DSS=60V）
• Supply voltage: V_DD(opr)=4.5 to 5.5V
• Built-in protection and diagnostic functions:
  Protection functions: overcurrent, overtemperature, overvoltage
  Diagnostic functions: overcurrent, overtemperature, open load
• Low Drain-Source ON-resistance:
  R_DS(ON)=0.1Ω(max)@V_DD=4.5 to 5.5V, Io=2A, T_ch=25°C
• Small package: WSON10 (3mm x 3mm)

Applications:
Automotive applications that use a 12V battery with a 6A or lower current, such as solenoid valve drives, mechanical relay drives, driving lamps, and load switches
