Demand has continued to grow for Silicon Carbide (SiC)-based systems to maximise efficiency and reduce size and weight, allowing engineers to create innovative power solutions. Applications leveraging SiC technology range from electric vehicles and charging stations to smart power grids and industrial and aircraft power systems. Microchip Technology ahs announced its expanded portfolio of smaller, lighter and more efficient SiC power modules.

PULS Power, the specialist manufacturer of high reliability DIN-Rail power supplies, has added to its Dimension CP Series with a ruggedised unit featuring an integrated high efficiency MOSFET based decoupling function for secure power N+1 redundant operation without the need for an external decoupling unit or use of inefficient ‘OR-ing’ diodes.

Diodes Incorporated has announced, at USB Developer Days, the PI3DBS16222 crossbar switch for high-speed differential and serial signals. Optimised for the latest protocols, it provides a solution to routing high-speed signals up to 20Gbps around high-performance electronic equipment, from personal computers and mobile devices to network switch backplanes and high-end test tools.

Our increased use of electric motors, especially in the automotive and industrial sectors, means that they are now a very large consumer of energy worldwide. BLDC (brushless FDC) motor technology is coming to the fore to improve reliability and efficiency, and MOSFET technology is providing an efficient drive solution. Mirko Vogelmann, Product Sales Manager Power Semiconductors, Rutronik explains.

Selectronic has launched OnDisplay to supply customer specific embedded display solutions. The brand name OnDisplay has been added to the Selectronic family to sit alongside its established OnLED custom-made LED printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) and LED strips.

PicoLAS have announced two new laser diode drivers designed specifically for LiDAR (Light Distancing and Ranging) applications. They feature an ultra-compact driver electronics board of just 19x20mm onto which a laser diode can be directly mounted to minimise inductance. This driver board is supplied coupled to a connector board to enable simple interface.

Designing reliable hardware is challenging the automotive industry, says Jan Preibisch, application marketing manager, Nexperia

The ATL43xLI-Q1 from Texas Instruments is a three-terminal adjustable shunt regulator, with specified thermal stability over applicable automotive, commercial, and military temperature ranges. Its output voltage can be set to any value between Vref (approximately 2.5V) and 36V with two external resistors. The device has a typical output impedance of 0.3Ω.

The surface-mount TMBS Trench MOS Barrier Schottky rectifier series at Vishay Intertechnology has been expanded with 16 new 2A and 3A devices in the eSMP series low profile SMP (DO-220AA) package. The Vishay General Semiconductor rectifiers feature a wide range of reverse voltages from 45V to 200V, while their 3A rating is the industry's highest for the SMP package to increase power density.

The TMP451-Q1 device from Texas Instruments is a high-accuracy, low-power remote temperature sensor monitor with a built-in local temperature sensor. The remote temperature sensors are typically low-cost discrete NPN or PNP transistors, or substrate thermal transistors or diodes that are integral parts of microprocessors, microcontrollers, or FPGAs.
