Rectifiers reduce conduction and switching losses
Six FRED Pt Gen 5 1200 V Hyperfast and Ultrafast rectifiers have been introduced by Vishay Intertechnology. Offering excellent conduction and switching loss trade-off for devices in their class, the 30A and 60A Vishay rectifiers are designed to increase the efficiency of high frequency converters and of hard- and soft-switched or resonant designs.
Liquid cold plates supply cooling for high-powered electronics
With today’s high-powered semiconductors and IGBT modules, air cooling is often an inadequate method of preventing a costly thermal breakdown. For cooling high-powered electronics, IGBT modules, lasers, wind turbines, motor devices, automotive components or medical equipment, engineers are looking to liquid cooling solutions and cold plates are a preferred method for supplying localised cooling to high-powered electronics.
Automotive industry to be a big growth opportunity for conductive ink
The automotive industry has emerged as a significant market opportunity for suppliers of conductive pastes and similar materials. It has the potential to one day rival in significance the irreplaceable photovoltaic market. Almost every major paste supplier with a global profile is re-organising its team and its product portfolio to capture this rising trend.
