Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Shrinks Board Space With Chip Scale Packaging Technology
GlobeNewswire
2012-05-29

    New Power MOSFET Reduces Area by 70% and Package Height by
                                50%

SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 29, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alpha and Omega
Semiconductor Limited (AOS) (Nasdaq:AOSL), a designer, developer and
global supplier of a broad range of power semiconductors, today
introduced the AOC2411, a high performance 30V p-channel Power MOSFET
offered in a compact 1.6mm x 1.6mm chip scale package. The AOC2411
features a low on-resistance of 45mOhms and is ideally suited for
battery powered applications that push the limits of size and
performance such as the latest smart phones, tablet PCs, eBook readers,
UltraBooks, and other mobile Internet devices.

The AOC2411 reduces the amount of utilized board space by 70% while
reducing the package height by 50% when compared to an industry
standard TSOP6 package of similar electrical performance. This form
factor reduction provides designers of power management circuitry with
an ideal and cost-effective solution for minimizing board space in
ultra-portable applications.

"AOS is committed to deliver high performance and value added solutions
to its customers. By offering products like AOC2411 that minimize board
space while improving performance -- which is crucial for new
innovative designs in ultra-portable applications, we are confirming
that commitment," said Peter Wilson, Director of Low Voltage MOSFETs at
AOS.
