Suitable for Home Appliances Such as Air Conditioners Through Low Power Consumption
56% Reduction in Power Loss Under Light Load Compared to IGBT

ROHM has newly added the "R60xxMNx series" to its PrestoMOS™ lineup of high-speed trr※1 type 600V Super Junction MOSFETs optimized for motor drive in white goods and industrial equipment requiring low power consumption.

The newly developed "R60xxMNx series" has been optimized through ROHM's proprietary chip structure, successfully maintaining the high-speed trr performance of PrestoMOS™ while achieving dramatic reductions in ON resistance※2 and QG※3. As a result, in motor drive applications such as inverter-equipped air conditioners compared to conventional IGBTs, it reduces power loss under light loads by approximately 56%, contributing to dramatic energy savings.

Additionally, the "R60xxMNx series" has achieved high short-circuit withstand capability. It mitigates risks such as destruction due to abnormal heat generation from circuit malfunction, contributing to improved application reliability.

Recently, demand for energy savings has increased not only during startup of high-power equipment and under rated conditions, but also during normal operation with light loads. Since approximately 50% of global power demand is used for motor drive, ROHM has developed PrestoMOS™ optimized for motor drive in white goods such as air conditioners and industrial equipment requiring low power consumption, realizing significant energy savings during normal operation of applications and responding to society's energy conservation needs.
