Compact PMDE Package Diodes

Diodes are used for rectification, protection, and switching circuits in applications such as automotive, industrial, and consumer fields, increasing the need for reduced package sizes to minimize mounting area and maximize performance for reduced power consumption. ROHM's PMDE package improves the heat dissipation of a decreased package size by expanding the backside electrode and optimizing the heat dissipation path.

This achieves the same electrical characteristics as conventional packages but in smaller package sizes.

Features

• Ensures higher reliability compared to conventional packages
• Improved heat dissipation achieves 42% smaller mounting area
