Free visualisation tool for microcontroller customers
The µC/Probe data visualisation tool from Micrium has been licensed to Infineon Technologies for customers of its XMC family of microcontrollers based on ARM Cortex-M cores. The µC/Probe will be shipped at no cost for customers.
Achieve twice the power density & half the power loss
Texas Instruments announced engineering samples of its 600V GaN 70mΩ FET power-stage, making TI the first and only semiconductor manufacturer to publicly offer a high-voltage driver-integrated GaN solution. Coupled with TI's analogue and digital power-conversion controllers, the 12A LMG3410 power stage enables designers to create smaller, more efficient and higher-performing designs compared to silicon FET-based solutions.
Online design tool receives an upgrade
eiSos developers can now simulate the power inductors from Würth Elektronik via the company’s updated RED EXPERT. The losses determined with RED EXPERT are based on current and voltage waveforms typical in applications. Besides the core and winding losses, they also include the losses arising from the specific geometries of the inductance, such as the air gap.
Fast DC/DC converter for industrial and data storage equipment
The XC9266 series of 6A synchronous step-down DC/DC converters from Torex feature an internal 5.5V operation driver transistor and are equipped with the company’s HiSAT-COT fast transient response control.
SiC Schottky has negligible reverse recovery for solar inverters and H/EVs
For applications that demand efficiency, reliability and thermal management, such as solar inverters, EV/HEV charging station, industrial power supplies, industrial drives, welding and plasma cutting, Littelfuse has introduced the LFUSCD series of SiC Schottky diodes.
2W DC/DC converters designed to power SiC MOSFETs
To meet the tough requirements of next-gen MOSFETs, RECOM has introduced two 2W DC/DC converter series designed to power SiC MOSFETs. One of the challenges of driving SiC MOSFETs is the high frequency and high voltage at which they are switched. High potentials between the control and power side of a SiC MOSFET application can wear down isolation barriers, eventually causing them to fail.
Temperature sensors ensure accuracy in cold environments
The MCP990Xfamily of System Management Bus (SMBus) temperature sensor ICs from Microchip are for monitoring of up to four channels in cold, outdoor and industrial low-temperature applications ranging from freezers and refrigerators to base stations and remote radio units. With ±1°C maximum accuracy for both external and internal diode temperatures from -40°C to +65°C, these ICs provide a low-cost, highly flexible solution where...
DC/DC converters provide more power output in the same space
Comprised of four models with nominal input voltages of +5 or +12VDC and outputs of +5, +12 or +15VDC, the NXE2 series of 2W SMT DC/DC converters have been announced by Murata Power Solutions. Footprint compatible with similar 1 and 2W devices available and measuring just 12.5x4.36x10.41mm, the NXE2 series provides more power output in the same space.
All-SiC power module achieves efficiencies over 98%
Wolfspeed, a Cree company, has introduced a high-performance 62mm power module, using the company's second generation SiC to produce all SiC power modules, claimed to enable unprecedented efficiency and power density for converters, inverters, motor drives, industrial electronics and EV systems.
