TOKYO--(Antara/BUSINESS WIRE)-- Toshiba Corporation's (TOKYO:6502) Storage & Electronic Devices Solutions Company today announced the start of sample shipments of “TBD62183AFNG” and “TBD62183AFWG”, a series of new-generation transistor arrays with DMOS FET[1] type sink output[2] specialized for applications, including photocoupler control, LED lighting, relay drive and level shifters.
Mass production is scheduled to start in the end of September 2016.





This Smart News Release features multimedia. View the full release here: http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20160809006546/en/





The new products achieve high-voltage drive with input rating of 30V and output rating of 50V, suited for level shifters and for directly controlling photocouplers, LEDs, and relays by high-voltage control signals. An 8ch sink type output is incorporated into the small surface-mounting packages (SSOP18 and SOL18), enabling space-saving control of multiple circuits.





By adopting DMOS FET type output, the new products eliminate the need for a base current for the input pin, achieving operation with a low input current, 0.1mA (max)[3], and low power consumption. They also have output characteristics similar to the Vce (sat) property of a Darlington Bipolar transistor, making them suitable to replace in-line bipolar transistors in Toshiba’s TD62083A series.





Main Features of New Products

  1. High-voltage drive
    The absolute maximum input rating is 30V, and output rating is 50V. Direct control by level shifter and high-voltage control signal is realized.
  2. Reduction of input current
    Operation with low input current (0.1mA (max)) is achieved, realizing low power consumption.
  3. Packages to suit various needs
    The line-up includes an SOL type package that supports surface mounting, and a small SSOP (0.65mm pitch) type that saves space.



Applications

Amusement machines (pachinko and slot machines), home appliances (air conditioners and refrigerators), industrial equipment (vending machines, ATM and other banking terminals, office automation equipment, factory automation equipment.)
