Toshiba is developing an interface IC for the automotive CXPI (clock extension peripheral interface) bus whose hardware logic “can control data communication by CXPI protocol and GPIO, eliminating the need for dedicated software development”, according to the company. Not a lot more has been revealed about the function of the IC, called TB9033FTG, except that it has 16 GPIO pins, ...

Mains 3A brush-less dc motor driver shrugs off 600V surges
Toshiba is aiming at air conditioners, air purifiers and pumps with an IGBT-based brush-less dc motor driver, suitable for sine-wave generation, in a ~13 x 33mm through-hole HDIP30 package. TPD4165K, as it will be know, can handle a maximum output of 3A, compared with 2A for the company’s earlier TPD4163K or TPD4164K. Absolute maximum input voltage has been raised to ...
5GHz antenna switch in 1.9 x 1.9mm
Toshiba has just released a 700MHz to 5GHz single-pole, double-throw antenna switch in a 1.9 x 1.9mm WCSP package. “TCWA1225G offers an input peak power of 46dBm – at 8dB PAR,” the company said. “This has been achieved by adopting Toshiba’s original CMOS process and optimising the internal switching circuitry.” The process also reduces insertion loss, typically to 0.6dB at ...
300mA LDOs in 1mm package
Toshiba has announced 300mA LDOs in a 1 x 1 x 0.37mm DFN4D package. Quiescent current is typically 1.2μA with no load. They are “specifically aimed at applications powered by small-scale batteries [including] IoT modules, communications modules, wearable devices and other miniature equipment”, according to the company. There are over 30 devices spanning outputs of 0.8 to 5.0V, with an ...
Photo-relay operates from 1.6V for FPGA compatibility
Toshiba is eyeing semiconductor test applications with a tiny photo-relay that operates at 1.6Vin “making it suitable for use with 1.8V FPGAs”, according to the company. “A resistor is built in on the primary side, enabling voltage-controlled operation.” Called TLP3412SRLA, it draws 6.6mA at the nominal operating voltage of 1.8V. Inside is a single Form-A (normally-open) ac or dc contact that ...
P-channel mosfet handles 60V and 90A for Automotive
Toshiba has introduced a 60V p-channel mosfet rated at 60V and 90A continuous current, with AEC-Q101 qualification for automotive use. Called XPH8R316MC (90A), the company sees it being used in vehicles, in load switches, electronic relays and motor drives. A similar part, XPH13016MC, is the same except rated at 60A. In both cases, pulse rating is double the continuous current ...
80V 1.4A DIP photo relay includes protection
Toshiba has added over-temperature and over-voltage protection features to an 80V 1.4A photo-relay, all inside a 4pin DIP package. Called TLP241BP, it can switch ac or dc though its single isolate 280mΩ (max) output switch – implemented as a pair of back to back mosfets – and handle pulses up to 4.2A (100ms, 1/10 duty). Output leakage is 1μA max ...
30V common-drain n-mosfet for bi-directional USB power
Toshiba has launched its first 30V n-channel common-drain dual mosfet, for controlling bi-directional power flow in USB-connected devices. The USB Power Delivery standard supports power levels from 5V 3A to 48V 5A, and allows swapping of the power supply and receiving side, requiring devices with USB charging to support bi-directional power. In developing a 30V common drain mosfet, called SSM10N961L, ...
Through-hole three-phase 600V brushless motor drives
Toshiba is aiming at pumps, air conditioning and fans with through-hole versions of its latest 600V three-phase brushless dc motor drivers. TPD4163K and TPD4164K come in a 32.8 x 13.5 x 3.525mm ‘HDIP30′ package, which has pins on a 1.778mm pitch (Electronics Weekly has asked why this odd pitch was chosen – watch this space). “This new package reduces PCB ...
New package delivers 40V 530μΩ automotive mosfet in 59mm2
Toshiba has launched a 200A 40V 0.66mΩmax automotive grade n-channel mosfet that can handle 600A pulses in a 7 x 8.44 x 2.3mm gull-wing package. “Automotive safety-critical applications such as steering, braking and autonomous driving systems generally require more devices than other systems to meet redundancy requirements. Here, a power mosfet with high current density is required due to the ...
