TVS diode protection for VFDs/IGBT inverters
In virtually all industrial control systems, variable frequency drives (VFDs)/ inverters are commonly installed at the front end of motors in order to regulate speed and save energy. Based on differing input voltage requirements, inverters are often categorised as low voltage (110, 220 and 380V), medium voltage (690, 1140 and 2300V), or high voltage (3, 3.3, 6, 6.6 and 10kV).
Introducing a new series of power modules from ON Semi
In this video, ON Semiconductor will introduce new power modules - Q0 and Q2 series for solar inverters rated up to over 100kVA.
Gate driver photocoupler features peak output current
Toshiba Electronicshas announced the launch of a new gate driver photocoupler housed in a low profile SO8L package. The TLP5832 delivers 2.5A peak output current (IOPH,IOPL) and can directly drive medium-class IGBTs and MOSFETs in applications such as inverters for industrial, air conditioning and solar applications as well as servo amplifiers.

A selection guide to IGBT and rectifier diode modules
Welcome to the IGBT and rectifier diode modules selection guide.An insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) is a three-terminal power semiconductor device primarily used as an electronic switch which, as it was developed, came to combine high efficiency and fast switching.
DC-DC converters cut time to market
Now available in Europe through TTI are small isolated DC-DC converters from Murata for renewable energy applications. The components provide a unique miniaturised solution to reduce design complexity and time-to-market. They provide the power and performance characteristics needed to support the harsh requirements over alternative methods.
Integrated shunt resistors reduce system costs
Infineon Technologies takes the EconoDUAL 3 modules to the next level of integration. They are now available with integrated shunt resistors for current monitoring in the AC path. Implementing these devices helps inverter manufacturers to reduce cost, improve performance and simplify the inverter designs.
