ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed the RS4P063BPHZG, a 100V MOSFET optimized for automotive safety functions and protection circuits. The new product achieves a Wide-SOA (Safe Operating Area) across a broad voltage range in the standard HPLF5060 (5060-size) package widely used in automotive applications. By incorporating a design that effectively suppresses secondary breakdown, it delivers approximately five times the SOA tolerance of standard equivalent-sized products under VDS=100V and PW=100 microseconds. This contributes to greater reliability in automotive applications subject to momentary high-power loads, including airbag inflator ignition circuits and seat belt pretensioner drive circuits. Adopting the standard 5060-size package also simplifies replacement evaluation with existing layouts, helping reduce the workload and costs associated with design changes. Recent advances in vehicle electrification are increasing demand for automotive systems that support higher voltages and currents. In particular, safety functions and protection circuits may experience momentary high-power loads during abnormal or emergency conditions, requiring the MOSFETs that drive them to provide high SOA capability. ROHM has established a strong track record of providing Wide-SOA products for AI servers and industrial power supplies, including products that have been selected as recommended components by a global cloud platform provider.

ROHM Semiconductor has developed the SDR01 Series of high anti-surge chip resistors, delivering a class-leading rated power of 0.33W in the 0402 (1005 Metric) size. Designed for electronic equipment where mounting densities continue to increase, the series is well suited for automotive, industrial, consumer electronics, and AI server applications. The new products help save board space and reduce component count by enabling replacement of larger-size resistors and consolidation of resistors while maintaining the reliability required of anti-surge chip resistors. As electronic equipment becomes more highly functional and requires higher power, demand is rising across automotive, industrial, and consumer markets for electronic components that combine compact size with high power handling. These trends are also increasing the need for smaller high-reliability chip resistors, including anti-surge products. In power supply circuits and around interfaces, resistance to surges and electrostatic discharge (ESD), as well as high-power capability, is required. To address these needs, ROHM optimized the resistive element and electrode designs of the SDR01 Series. This enables high rated power to be guaranteed in the 0402 size while securing the reliability expected of high anti-surge chip resistors. The new products guarantee 0.33W up to the rated terminal temperature of Tk=125°C. This makes them easier to use in demanding thermal environments, such as high-density mounting and areas around heat-generating components, helping reduce the thermal design burden. In addition, these products achieve a TCR of ±100ppm/°C for 10O = R = 2.2MO. By suppressing resistance-value fluctuations caused by temperature changes, the products support stable circuit operation and contribute to smaller, more reliable power supply circuits and peripheral interface circuits. Mass production of the new products has already begun. ROHM will continue to expand its lineup of high-reliability chip resistors, contributing to greater miniaturization, higher power handling, and higher reliability in electronic equipment. Application examples include power supply and control circuits in automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics requiring compact size, high power handling, and high reliability.

ROHM Semiconductor had developed 4th Generation 650V IGBTs ideal for automotive electric compressors and HV heaters, as well as inverters for industrial equipment. As automotive-grade 650V-class products, new IGBTs achieve class-leading low conduction loss with VCE(sat)= 1.55V, while providing high short-circuit tolerance and complying with the AEC-Q101 automotive reliability standard. As electric vehicles shift to higher voltages, SiC is increasingly adopted in high-power applications such as traction inverters. At the same time, 650V IGBTs are widely used as switching devices in auxiliary systems with lower power capacity, including automotive electric compressors and HV heaters. Silicon IGBTs are also widely used in industrial equipment, particularly motors and compressors, and demand is expected to continue expanding. These applications require greater energy savings and smaller equipment designs, creating strong demand for power devices that offer higher reliability, smaller size, and higher efficiency. In particular, inverter and heater circuits require short-circuit tolerance sufficient to endure the time needed to detect and interrupt overcurrent during a short circuit. In response to these market requirements, ROHM redesigned the device structure, including the process and edge termination structure, to develop 4th Generation IGBTs that combine low-loss characteristics with high short-circuit tolerance while addressing higher-voltage requirements. By revising the device structure, the products increase current density while reducing conduction and switching losses. In addition, despite the trade-off between lower loss and short-circuit tolerance, the products ensure a long short-circuit withstand time of 7 µs at Tj = 25°C. This contributes to higher efficiency and improved reliability in applications. The lineup includes 12 products in the TO-247N package, the RGAxxTS65HR /RGAxxTS65EHR series, and 10 bare wafer products, the SG83xxWN series. ROHM is also developing 12 products in the TO-247-4L package, the RGAxxTR65HR/RGAxxTR65EHR series. Design models and materials needed for circuit design are also available for download from ROHM’s official website. The TO-247N package products and selected bare wafer products have been available. ROHM plans to further expand the lineup in the same packages and develop compact, surface-mount IGBT products that adopt the TO-263L package and top-side cooling (TSC) packages. ROHM will continue to expand its lineup of high-performance IGBT products, contributing to higher-efficiency drive and miniaturization in automotive and industrial equipment applications. Application Examples: Automotive electric compressors, Automotive HV heaters (PTC heaters, coolant heaters), Industrial equipment inverters. ROHM’s official website provides SPICE models that faithfully reproduce the electrical characteristics of the products in simulations, PLECS models for electrical circuit simulation, and other materials needed for circuit design. EcoIGBT is ROHM’s brand of IGBTs consisting of both devices and modules designed to meet the needs of high-voltage applications in the power device field.

ROHM Semiconductor has developed a 2nd Generation terahertz (THz) wave oscillation device using semiconductor elements known as Resonant Tunneling Diodes (RTDs). ROHM is making the device available via the RTD-EVK-G2 Terahertz Wave Device Evaluation Kit, which includes a sample device, cable, and evaluation board. The kit enables companies and research institutions to evaluate THz wave oscillation and detection in a compact development environment. Occupying the frequency region between radio waves and light, terahertz waves combine the penetrating properties of radio waves with the straight-line propagation of light. Because they exhibit unique absorption characteristics for polymers, moisture, and other substances, they are expected to be used in non-destructive testing without ionizing radiation, medical and healthcare applications, and high-resolution radar sensing. Since the late 2000s, ROHM has engaged in joint research with the Institute of Science Tokyo, Osaka University, and many other universities and research institutions to develop THz wave oscillation and detection devices using RTDs. In 2024, ROHM began offering samples of 1st Generation products, achieving substantial downsizing and cost reduction compared with conventional methods. ROHM has now developed a 2nd Generation terahertz wave oscillation device. The device maintains the same compact 0.5 × 0.5mm chip size as the 1st Generation product while adopting an internal structure that enables higher output power. As a result, output power has been increased to approximately 4 times that of the 1st Generation product, reaching a maximum of 40µW. The higher output power improves the detectability of THz waves after transmission through or reflection from target objects – making the device well suited for applications such as sensing and imaging that require high signal quality. The device is mounted in the same 4.0 × 4.3mm PLCC package, maintaining the industry’s smallest footprint. This enables evaluation environments to be built even in space-constrained settings. In addition, compared with other THz generation methods, the RTD approach generates less heat and consumes less power, reducing application development load at both companies and research institutions. Sales of the RTD-EVK-G2 evaluation kit, which includes samples of the 2nd Generation wave oscillation device, are planned to begin in August 2026. By enabling evaluation at a lower cost than other methods, the kit supports the development of a wide range of applications, including non-destructive testing; imaging and sensing in the medical and healthcare sectors; material identification; and moisture detection. ROHM will also continue sales of 1st Generation devices for applications that prioritize low power consumption. ROHM is committed to supporting terahertz wave research and application development and offers a variety of support materials. Combining the RTD-EVK-G2 Terahertz Wave Device Evaluation Kit with measurement tools such as Analog Discovery 3™ from Digilent (along with a computer and software) allows users to easily evaluate THz wave oscillation and detection. Both the device and evaluation board are compact, making it possible to build a research and development environment even in limited spaces.

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed the TSC3PAK (14.00 x 18.58 x 3.50 mm) package for SiC MOSFETs. By adopting a top-side heat dissipation structure that places the heat dissipation surface on the top of the package, the new product enables automated mounting while achieving heat dissipation performance comparable to that of conventional through-hole packages (TO-247-4L). This contributes to greater efficiency and reliability in power conversion circuits for onboard chargers (OBCs) and electric compressors used in xEVs (electric vehicles). In xEVs, the adoption of SiC devices is expanding beyond main inverters to include power conversion circuits such as OBCs and electric compressors to improve charging speed and extend cruising range. Through-hole type devices involve manual mounting processes, and their form factor makes it difficult to achieve a lower package profile. Surface-mount SiC devices compatible with automated mounting have begun gaining adoption. To address these issues, the new TSC3PAK delivers heat dissipation performance comparable to through-hole technology such as TO-247 in a surface-mount package. The new package incorporates ROHM’s proprietary groove structure to secure a long creepage distance of 6.66 mm, allowing it to accommodate an AC peak voltage of 1200 V in a Pollution Degree 2 environment while maintaining compatibility with products widely adopted in the market. Products using the new package incorporate ROHM’s 4th Generation SiC MOSFETs, achieving low ON resistance and high-speed switching characteristics. As a result, switching losses during power conversion are significantly reduced, contributing to greater application efficiency and lower power consumption. Mass production started in June 2026. Application Examples – Automotive Systems: Onboard chargers (OBCs), electric compressors – Industrial Equipment: PV inverters, server power supplies.

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed a wireless power supply IC chipset consisting of the receiver (ML7670) and transmitter (ML7671) compatible with Near Field Communication (NFC) technology for compact wearables such as smart rings and smart bands. The smart ring market has seen rapid growth in recent years. However, for extremely small ring-shaped devices worn on the finger, wired charging is impractical, while the conventional Qi wireless charging standard is difficult to implement due to constraints such as coil size. In response, NFC-based charging, which operates at the high-frequency 13.56MHz band that enables antenna miniaturization, is attracting increased attention, with adoption accelerating in next-generation wearables. This new chipset builds on the proven receiver (ML7660) and transmitter (ML7661). The maximum power transfer is specified at 250mW, while peripheral components such as the switching MOSFETs required to supply power to the charging IC are built in. The result is a solution optimized for both mounting area and power transfer efficiency in the power class demanded by compact wearable devices. The ML7670 power receiver IC achieves a maximum power transfer efficiency of 45% in the 250mW low output range -- all in an industry-leading form factor of just 2.28 x 2.56 x 0.48mm. What's more, all firmware required for wireless power delivery is embedded directly within the IC, eliminating the need for a host MCU. Compliance with NFC Forum (WLC 2.0) enables power transfer while maintaining compatibility with existing devices, positioning the chipset as a core element in the expanding NFC wireless power ecosystem. The new chipset is already in mass production. Furthermore, it has been adopted in SOXAI RING 2, the latest model launched on December 10, 2025, by SOXAI Inc., the Japanese developer and distributor of the original sleep-monitoring ring SOXAI RING. Application Examples - Smart rings - Smart bands - Smart pens - Wireless earphones - Other compact devices (i.e., wearables).

DENSO Corporation (TSE:6902) is considering withdrawing its acquisition proposal for major Japanese chipmaker ROHM Co., Ltd. (TSE:6963), informed sources have said. Denso, part of the Toyota Motor Corp. group, is finding it difficult to gain support from Rohm for the acquisition offer, the sources said. If the offer is withdrawn, industry consolidation in the Japanese power semiconductor industry is likely to proceed mainly through talks on business integration between Rohm, Toshiba Corp. and Mitsubishi Electric Corp. In early March, it came to light that Denso, which regards the chip business as a growth area amid expectations of long-term EV market growth, had offered to acquire Rohm. Rohm later set up a special committee to examine the proposal. Following Denso's acquisition proposal, Rohm announced on March 27 that it had reached a basic agreement to begin discussions on integrating its semiconductor business with Toshiba and Mitsubishi Electric. Rohm is also believed to be concerned about the possibility of being swallowed up by the Toyota group, industry sources said. As the business scale of each domestic power semiconductor maker is small, it is important for them to strengthen their international competitiveness at a time when Chinese and other manufacturers are increasing their presence. However, the form of the integration of the semiconductor operations by the three Japanese companies remains uncertain, including who will take the lead in realizing a three-way alliance.

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed the "BD9xxN5 Series" of LDO regulator ICs with 500mA output current, featuring its proprietary ultra-stable control technology "Nano Cap (TM"). This series is designed for 12V/24V primary power supply applications used in automotive equipment, industrial equipment, and communication infrastructure. In recent years, electronic devices have demanded higher density in smaller form factors at the same time. To meet this demand and achieve space savings and design flexibility, power supply ICs must be capable of stable operation even with small-capacity capacitors. To address this challenge, ROHM developed the "BD9xx N1 Series" LDO regulator (150mA output current) in 2022, incorporating its proprietary ultra-stable control Technology, "Nano Cap (TM). The newly developed BD9xxN5 Series builds on the success of the BD9xxN1 Series by increasing the output current to 500mA -- more than three times higher than before -- significantly broadening its suitability for applications requiring higher power. In addition, very low output voltage ripple of approximately 250mV (with load current variation of 1mA to 500mA within 1 microsecond) is achieved with a small output capacitance of just 470nF (typical). This contributes to space saving as well as greater flexibility in component selection.

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed the 100V power MOSFET--RS7P200BM--ach achieving safe operating area (SOA) performance in a 5060-size (5.0mm x 6.0mm) package. This product is ideal for hot-swap circuits in AI servers employing 48V power supplies as well as for industrial equipment power supplies requiring battery protection. The rapid evolution and widespread adoption of AI technology have increased demand for stable operation and improved power efficiency in servers equipped with generative AI and high-performance GPUs. In particular, hot-swap circuits require power MOSFETs with wide SOA tolerance to safely handle inrush current and overload conditions, ensuring stable operation. Furthermore, within data centers and AI servers, the transition toward 48V power supplies, which offer superior power conversion efficiency, is progressing against the backdrop of energy conservation. This necessitates the construction of high-voltage, high-efficiency power supply circuits capable of meeting these needs. Therefore, ROHM has strengthened its lineup of 100V power MOSFETs, ideal for hot-swap circuit in AI servers, to meet market needs. The new RS7P200BM adopts a compact DFN5060-8S (5060-size) package, enabling higher-density mounting compared to the RY7P250BM in a DFN8080-8S package, which ROHM released in May 2025. The new product achieves low on-resistance (RDS(on)) of 4.0milliohm (conditions: VGS=10V, ID=50A, Ta=25C) while maintaining wide SOA of 7.5A at a pulse width of 10ms and 25A at 1ms under operating conditions of VDS=48V. This balance of low on-resistance and wide SOA, typically a trade-off relationship, helps suppress heat generation during operation, thereby improving server power supply efficiency, reducing cooling load, and lowering electricity costs. ROHM will continue to strengthen its lineup of power devices for 48V power supply systems, contributing to reducing power loss and cooling loads in data centers, as well as enhancing the high reliability and energy efficiency of server systems.

ROHM Semiconductor announced they have begun mass production of the SCT40xxDLL series of SiC MOSFETs in TOLL (TO-Leadless) packages. Compared to conventional packages (TO-263-7L) with equivalent voltage ratings and on-resistance, these new packages offer approximately 39% improved thermal performance. This enables high-power handling despite their compact size and low profile. It is ideal for industrial equipment such as server power supplies and ESS (Energy Storage Systems) where the power density is increasing, and low-profile components are required to enable miniaturized product design. In applications like AI servers and compact PV inverters, the trend toward higher power ratings is occurring simultaneously with the contradictory demand for miniaturization, requiring power MOSFETs to achieve higher power density. Particularly in totem pole PFC circuits for slim power supplies, often called "the pizza box type," stringent requirements demand thicknesses of 4mm or less for discrete semiconductors. ROHM's new product addresses these needs by reducing component footprint by approximately 26% and achieving a low profile of 2.3mm thickness - roughly half that of conventional packaged products. Furthermore, while most standard TOLL package products are limited by a drain-source rated voltage of 650V, ROHM's new products support up to 750V. This allows for lower gate resistance and increased safety margin for surge voltages, contributing to reduced switching losses. The lineup consists of six models with on-resistance ranging from 13mO to 65mO, with mass production started in September 2025. These products are available for online purchase from online distributors such as DigiKey, MOUSER and Farnell. Simulation models for all six new products are available on ROHM's official website, supporting rapid circuit design evaluation.

ROHM Semiconductor announced its development of the "RPR-0730", analog compact optical sensor, capable of high-precision detection of fast-moving objects. This sensor can be widely utilized in consumer and industrial equipment applications, including printers and conveyor systems. As industrial and office equipment becomes increasingly sophisticated and automated, there is a growing demand for improved sensing technology accuracy. In applications such as label printers, material or product transport systems, and copiers, the need for technology that can identify objects more accurately is essential. Moreover, increased speed driven by productivity improvements makes the introduction of high-speed, high-precision optical sensors crucial. The RPR-0730 is a compact reflective optical sensor (photo reflector). It employs an infrared VCSEL, which offers higher directionality than LEDs, enabling detection of finer objects. Furthermore, by using a phototransistor with analog output as the receiver, the sensor achieves a response time of 10us. This dual combination enables high-speed, accurate identification of fine lines as narrow as 0.1mm - previously difficult to detect with conventional LED light sources. As an addition to the existing digital output sensor "RPR-0720" series, RPR-0730 expands capability to applications requiring faster sensing, such as print detection incopiers, label printers, or rotational detection in motors and gears. The package is ultra-compact at 2.0mm x 1.0mm x 0.55mm and employs a visible light filtering resin to suppress interference from ambient light or sunlight. This enables stable detection even in environments with varying light conditions, such as factories or outdoors. The sensor can also be easily integrated into equipment requiring installation in small, confined spaces, like inside conveyors or precision instruments, making it suitable for a wider range of applications. Mass production of the new product commenced in October 2025. This product is available for online purchase from online distributors such as DigiKey and MOUSER. Going forward, ROHM will continue to leverage its development expertise in light-emitting and light-receiving elements to create sensing products that meet customer needs, contributing to the miniaturization and enhanced convenience of various devices.

ROHM Semiconductor announced the development of the BD67871MWV-Z, a three-phase brushless DC motor gate driver optimized for medium voltage systems (12 to 48V). Original TriC3™? gate drive technology makes it possible to significantly reduce FET switching loss while maintaining low EMI - overcoming a long-standing trade-off in motor driver IC design. With motors accounting for roughly 60% of global electricity consumption, control technologies that improve energy efficiency are becoming increasingly important. Traditional 12V to 48V motor drive systems typically use an MCU paired with three separate gate drivers. However, rising demand for higher efficiency and more precise control is accelerating the shift toward integrated solutions that combine an MCU with a three-phase motor driver. A major technical challenge in such systems has been balancing reduced power consumption with effective noise and EMI (electro-magnetic interference) suppression. The BD67871MWV- Z integrates ROHM's Active Gate Drive technology 'TriC3™?,' which continuously monitors voltage characteristics at the external power FETs and dynamically adjusts the gate drive current in real time. This greatly reduces FET switching losses (along with the associated heat generation/power consumption) while suppressing ringing to achieve low EMI. In real motor evaluations, TriC3TM reduced FET heat generation by approximately. 35% compared to ROHM's conventional constant-current drive solutions without sacrificing EMI performance. The new gate driver adopts the compact UQFN28 package and pin layout common to motor driver ICs used in medium-voltage industrial equipment, simplifying circuit redesign and development. ROHM also offers general-purpose motor drivers (BD67870MWV-Z, BD67872MWV-Z) in the same package and configuration that support constant-voltage drive. From standard types to advanced models featuring TriC3™?, ROHM provides a comprehensive lineup engineered to improve motor efficiency, enhance functionality, and reduce power consumption across a wide range of applications. Application Examples: Industrial Equipment: Electric drills/drivers and industrial fans; Consumer Appliances: Vacuum cleaners, air purifiers, air conditioners, ventilation fans and e-bikes (electric-assist bicycles). TriC3™? is a trademark or registered trademark of ROHM Co., Ltd. Mass production began in September 2025. The BD67871MW V-Z, along with an evaluation board (BD67871MWV-EVK-003), is now available for online purchase through distributors such as DigiKey and Mouser.

ROHM Co., Ltd. has developed an innovative Schottky barrier diode (SBD) that overcomes the traditional VF/IR trade-off. This way, it delivers high reliability protection for a wide range of high-resolution image sensor applications, including ADAS cameras. Modern ADAS cameras and similar systems require higher pixel counts to meet demand for greater precision. This has created a growing concern -- the risk of damage caused by photovoltaic voltage generated under light exposure during power OFF. While low-VF SBDs are effective countermeasures, low IR is also essential during operation to prevent thermal runaway. However, simultaneously achieving both low VF and low IR has been a longstanding technical challenge. The RBE01VYM6AFH represents a novel concept: leveraging the low-VF characteristics of rectification SBDs for protection purposes. By adopting a proprietary architecture, ROHM has achieved low IR that is typically difficult to realize with low VF designs. As a result, even under harsh environmental conditions, the device meets market requirements by delivering VF of less than 300mV (at IF=7.5mA even at Ta=40C), and IR of less than 20mA (at VR=3V even at Ta=125C). These exceptional characteristics not only prevent circuit damage caused by high photovoltaic voltage generated when powered OFF, but also significantly reduce the risk of thermal runaway and malfunction during operation. The diode is housed in a compact flat-lead SOD-323HE package (2.5 mm x 1.4 mm /0.098 inch x 0.055 inch) that offers both space efficiency and excellent mountability. The RBE01VyM6AFH is also AEC-Q101 qualified, ensuring suitability as a protection device for next-generation automotive electronics requiring high reliability and long-term stability. Application examples: Image sensor-equipped sets such as ADAS cameras, smart intercoms, security cameras, home IoT devices, etc. Online sales information: Sales launch: Now Sample price: $1.0/unit (excluding tax). Online distributors: DigiKey, Mouser, Farnell, etc.
