Three German partners from industry and research are joining forces in a quest to curb one of the worst energy guzzlers in the household and to introduce energy efficiency to the kitchen. Use of the induction cooking method – where only pots and pans are heated and not the stovetop – could save up to 25 percent electricity. Today, about ten to 15 percent of German households are equipped with an induction cooker. The initial price difference ...

Infineon Technologies today introduces the ThinPAK 8x8, a new leadless SMD package for HV MOSFETs. The new package has a very small footprint of only 64mm² (vs. 150mm² for the D2PAK) and a very low profile with only 1mm height (vs. 4.4mm for the D2PAK). The significantly smaller package size, combined with benchmark low parasitic inductances, provides designers with a new and effective way to decrease system solution size in power density drive...

Infineon Technologies AG introduces its specific off-line driver IC for high-efficiency LED bulbs with dimming for residential lighting. With a flexible architecture that supports very cost-effective 40W/60W/100W incandescent bulb replacement and all typical consumer lighting applications, the ICL8001G sets a new benchmark with respect to integration, performance, features, and total system cost. The ICL8001G enables up to 90 percent efficiency, ...
