FETs deliver industry’s highest-performance upgrade path
Designers of Power Factor Correction stages (PFCs), Active Frontend Rectifiers, LLC converters and Phase Shift Full Bridge converters can now upgrade existing system performance by using the UJ3C1200 series of SiC JFET cascodes from UnitedSiC. With a voltage rating of 1200V and ON-resistances of 80 and 40 milliohms, these devices offer a ‘drop-in’ replacement solution for many existing IGBT, Si-MOSFET and SiC-MOSFET parts, with no cha...
Hyperfast recovery rectifiers come in SMPD package
16 state-of-the-art Vishay 10A to 30A FRED Pt Hyperfast and Ultrafast Recovery Rectifier options in the low-profile SMPD (TO-263AC) package have been added to the New Yorker Electronics portfolio. Named a 2017 Vishay Super 12 Featured Product, it combines extremely fast and soft recovery characteristics with low leakage current and low forward voltage drop.
Paving the way to GaN power technology
Research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, imec, and fabless technology innovator, Qromis, have announced the development of high performance enhancement mode p-GaN power devices on 200mm engineered Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE)-matched substrates, processed in imec’s silicon pilot line. The substrates are offered by Qromis as commercial 200mm QST substrates as part of their patented product portfolio.
Broad range of space-saving PN and Trench Schottky rectifiers
Nexperia has announced the launch of a wide range of PN and Trench Schottky rectifiers for power applications including automotive, industrial and consumer. In total, the company now offers more than 90 devices in the CFP packages.Nexperia CFP packaging is size- and thermally-efficient. The package design has a solid copper clip and exposed heat sink to reduce the package’s thermal resistance and optimise the transfer of heat into the ambie...
Compact cartridge fuses save space on crowded boards
Littelfuse hasintroduced the smallest cartridge fuse series available that’s rated at 500VAC with current ratings from 40-63A and a 2,000A at 500VAC interrupting rating. The 606 Series high current Cartridge Fuse is designed for overcurrent protection in applications such as high voltage power supply circuits rated up to 23kW. With a 10x32mm cartridge body, a single 606 fuse requires less board space than previous designs that used multiple...
DC/DC converter delivers tightly regulated 12V output
Flex Power Modules has announced a new one-sixteenth-brick 12V-output DC/DC converter module that can deliver 200W of power and has efficiency of up to 95%, making it suitable as a replacement for one-eighth brick footprint converters in many applications, thereby saving more than 40% in board real estate.
Synchronous rectifier controller delivers higher efficiency
Continuing its strategy to meet the industry-wide demand for increased power density and improved efficiency, Diodes Incorporated has introduced the ZXGD3113 synchronous rectifier controller. When coupled with a MOSFET, the pairing can be used to replace lossy Schottky rectifiers in power supplies based on a flyback or resonant converter topology.
