Applications
 15 years
 several hours per day
 a few high power pulses per hour
 lot of smaller and medium power pulses per hour
Example high power pulses:
5 high power cycles (∆T=100K) per hour
8h working time per day
250 working days per year
5*8*250…....
10,000 cycles per year

TO Leadless vs. D2PAK 7 Pin
The TO Leadless, compared to a D2PAK 7Pin with the same chip
size inside, shows a significantly lower RDS(on) (up to -25% in 60V)
and RthJC, resulting in a much lower chip temperature.
This reduced thermal stress results in a very high reliability of the

Conclusion
 The TOLL is a high reliable package, capable to withstand much
more power cycles than required by AEC Q101, even with a
much higher temperature stress (∆T=150K instead of 100K)
 Test highlighted the weakest point oft this setup: The solder
joint MOSFETPCB
 After 70,000 cycles the test had to be stopped because the
solder joint was damaged
 Under the same load conditions, MOSFETs in TOLL package will
show lower losses resulting in a lower chip temperature, e. g. a
very high reliabilty
 A new test was started in May 2014 with a reduced temperature
stress of ∆T=130K (20°C150°C)
 Test duration is expected to last more than one year (>200,000
cycles)
