Designed to save space in high-speed switching applications, the new RK7002A and SM6K2 surface mount mosfets from Rohm are miniature 60V devices offering single- and dual-transistor configurations. Rohm's new mosfets can operate with junction temperatures of up to 150C and are ideal for a variety of switching designs including automotive applications. The RK7002A provides a single N-channel transistor and the SM6K2 integrates two N-channel devices that are totally independent to avoid interference.

Both mosfets incorporate a protection diode between gate and source to protect against static electricity during operation.

Capable of operating with a continuous drain current of 300mA and a pulsed current of 1.2A, the RK7002A features a low typical on resistance down to just 0.7ohm.

Maximum power dissipation for the device is 200mW.

The SM6K2 can handle a continuous drain current of 200mA and a pulsed current of 800mA and has a typical on resistance down to 1.7ohm.

Supplied in Rohm's SST3 (SOT-23) package, the RK7002A measures 2.9 x 1.3 x 0.95mm and can be used in parallel for applications requiring higher ratings.

The dual-transistor SM6K2, which is supplied in an SMT6 (SC-74) package with dimensions of 2.9 x 1.6 x 1.1mm, allows both mounting area and cost to be halved when compared with a two-transistor solution.
