Fairchild Semiconductor and Infineon Technologies has announced the extension of their compatibility partnership to encompass Fairchild's 5x6mm power stage asymmetric dual MOSFET package. Fairchild’s PowerTrench power stage dual asymmetric MOSFET modules are part of a comprehensive portfolio of advanced MOSFET technology that provides power designers with a wide range of solutions for mission critical high efficiency information processing designs.

This extended collaboration, which began in 2010, provides customers improved efficiency and thermal performance in DC-DC buck conversion. It also takes advantage of the expertise both companies have to offer in asymmetric dual MOSFETs which can handle over 30A and increase power density.

Fairchild Semiconductor is focused on developing, manufacturing and distributing semiconductor solutions to a wide range of end-market customers. The company’s focus on the power market, along with diverse end- market exposure and strong penetration into the growing Asian region provide the company with an excellent opportunity to provide customers the right solution for their design challenges.
