IR Intros Maxi Series of Intelligent Power Switches

January 24, 1999 by Jeff Shepard

International Rectifier (IR, El Segundo, CA) offers its new Maxi Series of Intelligent Power Switches (IPS). The switches are designed to handle high-current loads safely with low power dissipation, and integrate a low Rds(on) (to 5 milliohms) output power MOSFET for lower heat dissipation.

Available in standard TO-220 and SMD-220 packages, as well as the new Super-220 package, the devices are priced from $0.55 to $3.00 in quantities of 100,000.
