Fairchild Semiconductor Power Expert to Present System Efficiency Techniques at Upcoming IPEMC Conference

Elbanhawy's presentations include:

"Effective Load Resistance: A New Method to Evaluate DC/DC Converter Efficiency":
This oral presentation will offer an alternative to efficiency measurements as an evaluation tool for power supplies. Elbanhawy will demonstrate how the proposed method works well with little dependency on the output voltage and temperature.


"Parasitic Gate Resistance and Switching Performance":
This poster presentation will examine the effect of gate resistance (Rg) on different losses in MOSFETs.
Elbanhawy is director, computing and telecommunication segments, Advanced Power Systems Center at Fairchild Semiconductor. He holds seven patents and has applications pending for an additional seven. In his thirty-five year career, Elbanhawy has delivered numerous technical presentations at conferences including PESC, PEDS, Intel Technology Symposium, PCIM, PPDC, IPEC, IPEMC, IIC and Power Systems World. He has written numerous articles for U.S. and international technical publications.
