In various low-voltage switching application scenarios such as switch circuits and low-side load switches, ROHM's RK7002BMHZGT116, with its very fast switching capability, ultra-low voltage drive (2.5V), ESD protection up to 2kV (HBM), and AEC-Q101 certification, has long been a preferred choice for engineers worldwide during design selection. However, against the backdrop of global supply chain uncertainties and trade volatilities, this imported component has gradually exposed pain points: unstable delivery times, procurement costs affected by exchange rates, and slow technical support responses. These issues hinder production schedules and cost control for downstream companies. Given this industry demand, domestic substitution has transitioned from an "option" to a "necessity," becoming a critical path for enterprises to ensure supply chain security, reduce costs, and enhance competitiveness.
VBsemi, with years of expertise in power semiconductors, has launched the VB162K N-channel MOSFET based on independent R&D. This product precisely对标es the RK7002BMHZGT116, offering core advantages of parameter upgrades, technological parity, and full package compatibility. It can serve as a direct replacement without modifications to the original circuit, providing a more stable, cost-effective, and locally attuned high-quality solution for low-voltage electronic systems.
Comprehensive Parameter Surpassing, Enhanced Performance, Adapting to Demanding Low-Voltage Conditions.
Tailored as a domestic alternative to the RK7002BMHZGT116, the VB162K achieves significant improvements in key electrical parameters, offering robust performance guarantees for switching applications:
Firstly, the drain-source voltage is maintained at 60V, matching the original model, ensuring reliable operation in low-voltage environments. Secondly, the continuous drain current is increased to 0.3A (300mA), a 20% enhancement over the original model's 250mA, allowing for higher current handling in load switches and similar circuits. Thirdly, the on-state resistance is optimized, with a low gate threshold voltage (Vth) of 1.7V, enabling efficient switching at ultra-low drive voltages and reducing power losses. The VB162K also supports a ±20V gate-source voltage, providing strong gate ESD and noise immunity, which prevents unintended turn-on in noisy environments. This design balances driving convenience and switching reliability, seamlessly integrating with mainstream driver ICs without circuit adjustments.
Enhanced with Advanced Trench Technology, Reliability and Stability Inherited and Upgraded.
The core advantage of the RK7002BMHZGT116 lies in its very fast switching and low-voltage drive capability. The VB162K employs advanced Trench technology, building upon the excellent switching characteristics of the original model while optimizing device reliability. It features fast switching performance, making it ideal for high-frequency applications like switch circuits. The device offers ESD protection comparable to industry standards, ensuring durability against electrostatic discharges. With an operating temperature range that accommodates various conditions, the VB162K has undergone rigorous reliability testing, including aging tests, resulting in a low failure rate. This makes it suitable for critical applications requiring stability, such as automotive electronics, industrial control, and consumer devices.
Fully Compatible Package, Enabling "Virtually Cost-Free, Risk-Free, and Immediate" Replacement.
For downstream enterprises, a core concern regarding domestic substitution is the R&D investment and time costs. The VB162K addresses this through its package design. The device uses a SOT23-3 package, which is completely identical to the RK7002BMHZGT116's package in terms of pinout, pin spacing, and dimensions. Engineers need not make any modifications to the original PCB layout, achieving "plug-and-play" convenient replacement. This compatibility reduces substitution verification time—sample validation can typically be completed within 1-2 days—and avoids costs from PCB revisions. It ensures the original product's structural integrity, eliminating the need for re-certification, thus shortening the supply chain cycle and helping enterprises quickly adopt domestic alternatives.
Local Strength Assurance, Dual Peace of Mind for Supply Chain Security and Technical Support.
Compared to the unstable supply chain of imported components, VBsemi leverages China's robust semiconductor industry chain, with modern production bases and R&D centers. This enables full-process independent R&D and stable mass production of the VB162K. Currently, the standard lead time for this model is compressed to within 2 weeks, with emergency orders enabling rapid delivery. This mitigates risks from international supply chain disruptions, tariffs, and geopolitics, ensuring smooth production plans. As a local brand, VBsemi boasts a professional technical support team offering "one-on-one" customized services: providing comprehensive documentation, including substitution verification reports, datasheets, and application guides, along with tailored selection advice. For technical issues during substitution, the team ensures a rapid response within 24 hours, resolving problems onsite or remotely. This addresses the slow support and high communication costs of imported components, making the substitution process smoother and more worry-free.
From switch circuits and low-side load switches to automotive electronics and consumer devices, the VB162K, with its core advantages of "superior parameters, fast switching, package compatibility, controllable supply, and attentive service," has become the preferred solution for domestic substitution of the RK7002BMHZGT116. It has already achieved applications in several leading companies across industries, receiving high market recognition. Choosing the VB162K is not merely a simple component replacement; it is a crucial step for enterprises in upgrading supply chain security, optimizing production costs, and enhancing product competitiveness—requiring no R&D modification risks while enjoying better performance, more stable supply, and more convenient technical support.
