OverviewThis is a 4th-generation trench SiC MOSFET in a TSC3PAK surface-mount package with top-side heat dissipation. The top heat-spreading surface enables automated SMT assembly while delivering thermal performance comparable to conventional through-hole packages. A proprietary groove structure secures a creepage distance of 6.66 mm, allowing support for 1200 V AC peak in Pollution Degree 2 environments. The device offers low RDS(on) and fast switching, reducing switching losses in power-conversion applications.

Overview / Development backgroundThe TSC3PAK package places the heat-dissipation surface on the package top, enabling high thermal performance in an SMD form factor and supporting automated mounting processes. The groove-structured package secures 6.66 mm creepage distance for safer insulation design under Pollution Degree 2, allowing 1200 V AC peak handling. Combined with ROHM’s 4th-generation trench SiC MOSFET technology, the device achieves low ON resistance and high-speed switching to lower switching losses and improve conversion efficiency.
