Driven by the dual forces of automotive electrification and supply chain autonomy, the domestic substitution of core power devices has evolved from a backup option to a strategic imperative. Facing the stringent requirements for high reliability, high efficiency, and high power density in automotive-grade applications, finding a domestic alternative solution that is powerful, reliable in quality, and stable in supply has become a critical task for numerous automakers and Tier-1 suppliers. When focusing on the classic 150V N-channel MOSFET from ROHM—the RS6R060BHTB1—the VBQA1152N, launched by VBsemi, emerges as a formidable contender. It not only achieves precise performance alignment but also realizes a leap forward in key parameters based on advanced Trench technology, representing a value transformation from "usable" to "excellent," from "substitution" to "surpassing."
I. Parameter Comparison and Performance Leap: Fundamental Advantages Brought by Trench Technology
The RS6R060BHTB1 has earned recognition in applications like On-Board Chargers (OBC) and DC-DC converters due to its 150V voltage rating, 60A continuous drain current, and 21.8mΩ on-state resistance at 10V. However, as system efficiency demands become more stringent, the inherent losses and thermal management of the device pose challenges.
1. Building on hardware compatibility with the same 150V drain-source voltage and a compact DFN8(5X6) package, the VBQA1152N achieves significant breakthroughs in key electrical characteristics through advanced Trench technology:
- Significantly Reduced On-Resistance: With VGS = 10V, the RDS(on) is as low as 15.8mΩ, a reduction of approximately 27.5% compared to the reference model. According to the conduction loss formula Pcond = I_D^2⋅RDS(on), losses are substantially lower at high current operating points, directly improving system efficiency, reducing temperature rise, and simplifying thermal design.
- Optimized Current Handling: With a continuous drain current of 53.7A and robust VGS rating of ±20V, the device ensures reliable operation in demanding automotive environments, balancing performance and safety.
- Enhanced Switching Performance: Benefiting from Trench technology, the device features improved switching characteristics, enabling lower switching losses and supporting higher frequency designs for increased power density.
2. Robust Thermal Performance: With a low RDS(on) and efficient packaging, the VBQA1152N mitigates heat dissipation challenges, making it suitable for high-temperature scenarios like engine compartments.
II. Deepening Application Scenarios: From Functional Replacement to System Upgrade
The VBQA1152N not only enables direct replacement in existing applications of the RS6R060BHTB1 but can also drive overall system performance improvements with its advantages:
1. On-Board Charger (OBC)
Lower conduction and switching losses can improve efficiency across the entire load range, facilitating higher power density and smaller volume OBC designs, aligning with integration and lightweight trends.
2. EV DC-DC Converter (High-Voltage → Low-Voltage)
In 48V or mild-hybrid systems, the low-loss characteristic directly contributes to improved system efficiency, extending vehicle range. Its compact DFN package supports space-constrained layouts.
3. Motor Drive & Auxiliary Power Supplies
Suitable for auxiliary drives in hybrid/electric vehicles, such as cooling pumps or fan controllers, where high efficiency and reliability at elevated temperatures are critical.
4. Industrial and Consumer Power Supplies
In applications like server power supplies, telecom rectifiers, or LED drivers, the 150V rating and high current capability enhance system reliability and efficiency.
III. Beyond Parameters: Reliability, Supply Chain Security, and Full-Lifecycle Value
Choosing the VBQA1152N is not only a technical decision but also a consideration of supply chain and commercial strategy:
1. Domestic Supply Chain Security
VBsemi possesses controllable capabilities across the entire chain from chip design and manufacturing to packaging and testing, ensuring stable supply, predictable lead times, effectively responding to external supply fluctuations and trade risks, and safeguarding production continuity for OEMs and Tier-1s.
2. Comprehensive Cost Advantage
With superior performance in key parameters like RDS(on), domestic components offer a more competitive pricing structure and customization support, reducing BOM costs and enhancing end-product market competitiveness.
3. Localized Technical Support
Provides rapid, full-process support from selection, simulation, testing, to failure analysis, assisting customers with system optimization and troubleshooting, accelerating R&D iteration and problem resolution.
IV. Adaptation Recommendations and Replacement Path
For design projects currently using or planning to use the RS6R060BHTB1, the following steps are recommended for evaluation and switching:
1. Electrical Performance Verification
Compare key waveforms (switching trajectories, loss distribution, temperature rise curves) under identical circuit conditions. Utilize the low RDS(on) and optimized switching characteristics of the VBQA1152N to adjust drive parameters for further efficiency gains.
2. Thermal Design and Mechanical Validation
Due to reduced conduction losses, thermal requirements may be relaxed accordingly. Evaluate potential optimization of heat sinks or layout for further cost or size savings, leveraging the compact DFN8 package.
3. Reliability Testing and System Validation
After completing electrical/thermal stress, environmental, and lifespan tests in the lab, progressively advance to vehicle-mounted validation to ensure long-term operational stability.
