Navitas Unveils New Power Package Designs

The company announced a top-side cooled QDPAK package and a low-profile TO-247-4L package with asymmetrical leads, both designed to improve power density, thermal performance and system efficiency. Navitas said the latest 1200-volt SiC MOSFET products set a new benchmark for ruggedness and compact design.

The new QDPAK package is intended to improve heat dissipation by routing cooling directly through the top of the package to the heatsink, while the low-profile TO-247-4L is aimed at applications with tight vertical space requirements, including AI power racks.

Navitas said its 5th generation Trench-Assisted Planar technology delivers a 35% improvement in RDS(on) x QGD figure of merit and about a 25% improvement in QGD/QGS ratio, metrics that point to improved switching performance and efficiency.

The company said the products target customers seeking "more power in less space," particularly in AI data center power supplies and industrial infrastructure.

The announcement adds to momentum in the stock, after Navitas reported late-February fourth-quarter results that topped revenue estimates and issued first-quarter guidance above consensus.
