2266 Renesas Electronics has introduced seven new power metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistor (MOSFET) products equipped in HSON packages for use in automotive electronics control units for applications including direct-injection engine management and electric pump motor control.

The new products, including N-channel MOSFETs with 40V and 60V ratings and P-channel MOSFETs with a voltage rating of -30V, can be used for solenoids and motor switching or to protect against reversed battery conditions. The new products are available in HSON packages that are approximately one-half the size of the existing TO-252 package. They can switch currents up to 75A DC, and support channel temperatures up to 175°C.
