Recent #Diodes news in the semiconductor industry

2 months ago

➀ Diodes introduced four automotive-grade buck converters (AP68255Q, AP68355Q, AP6A255Q, AP6A355Q) supporting 48V rails, with input voltages up to 100V and output currents of 2.5A or 3.5A;

➁ The asynchronous design uses external Schottky diodes and features a constant on-time control scheme (~300kHz) for fast transient response and low ripple, alongside EMI-reduction techniques and proprietary gate drivers;

➂ Qualified to AEC-Q100 Grade 1, the converters include protection mechanisms (over-current, over-temperature) and industrial-grade variants, targeting automotive and high-power applications.

➀ Diodes launched the AP7372, a low-noise LDO regulator designed for sensitive applications like ADCs, DACs, VCOs, and PLLs, offering up to 90dB PSRR and 8μVrms output noise;

➁ The regulator supports adjustable output voltages (1.2–20V), operates across 2.7–20V input, and features protections against short-circuit, over-current, and over-temperature;

➂ Targeted for test/measurement, industrial automation, and medical devices, it uses a compact 1.2x1mm BGA package and requires minimal external components, such as 2.2μF ceramic capacitors.
