Vishay Siliconix
60 A VRPower® Integrated Power Stage
DESCRIPTION
The SiC789 and SiC789A are integrated power stage
solutions optimized for synchronous buck applications to
offer high current, high efficiency, and high power
density performance. Packaged in Vishay’s proprietary
6 mm x 6 mm MLP package, SiC789 and SiC789A enable
voltage regulator designs to deliver up to 60 A continuous
current per phase.
The internal power MOSFETs utilize Vishay’s
state-of-the-art Gen IV TrenchFET technology that delivers
industry benchmark performance to significantly reduce
switching and conduction losses.
The SiC789 and SiC789A incorporate an advanced
MOSFET gate driver IC that features high current driving
capability, adaptive dead-time control, an integrated
bootstrap Schottky diode, a thermal warning (THWn) that
alerts the system of excessive junction temperature, and
skip mode (SMOD#) to improve light load efficiency. The
drivers are also compatible with a wide range of PWM
controllers and supports tri-state PWM, 3.3 V (SiC789A) /
5 V (SiC789) PWM logic.
