Especially for summertime, more and more people are switching to e-bikes as an environmentally friendly alternative to the car, both for commuting to work and for leisure. In Germany alone, 2.2 million e-bikes were sold in 2022. The Power MOSFET DI100N10PQ from Diotec is used in the drive of high-performance e-bikes.

The success of the e-bike is essentially based on the development of lithium-ion batteries. The most powerful motors would hardly be of interest if the battery would not provide the system with important energy over many kilometers. An advanced e-biker needs a drive with around 300 to 400 watts and a torque of up to 85 Nm. Diotec's latest power MOSFETs DI100N10PQ, are the perfect solution for controlling the brushless DC motors used here. They offer a drain current of up to 100 A at a drain-source voltage of 100 V. The RDS(on) of only 4.5 mΩ ensures low losses and thus a longer battery life. And the QFN5x6 package guarantees that the six components used per drive take up very little space.
