IGBTs released for power management applications
IXYS Corporation have announced the 1700V and 2500V XPT IGBTs for power management applications. With current ratings ranging from 26-178A, the devices are well suited for high-voltage (HV), high-speed power conversion applications, and devices that are co-packed with anti-parallel fast diodes are also available.
Silicon carbide on the road to automotive electrification
The automotive industry has long been focussing on the higher efficiency of the combustion engine and electrification of the drivetrain in hybrid and fully electric vehicles to meet CO2emission goals. Now we finally see a tipping point with a greater availability ofSiC (Silicon Carbide) chips that offer extremely low power losses and higher temperature resistance.
Flyback transformer is optimised for industrial applications
TT Electronics has introduced the HM210-05K060LFTR flyback transformer designed for use with Avago's ACPL-32JT/302J IGBT chipset. With its high level of isolation the transformer is optimised for use in demanding industrial motor control and inverter applications.
Intelligent module reduces components for motor drive assembly
PCIM Europe 2017: Vincotech has developed the flowIPM 1C intelligent power module for 1200V applications, and claims it reduces both cost and footprint in industrial applications.
Gate driver IC supports and protect 1700V IGBTs
PCIM Europe 2017: Power Integrations has expanded its Scale-iDriver family of galvanically isolated single-channel gate driver ICs.
Gate drivers simplify the switching of MOSFETs and IGBTs
A range of gate drivers that feature a floating high-side driver has been introduced by Diodes.The DGD2103M, DGD2104M and DGD2304 simplify the switching of two N-channel MOSFETs or two IGBTs in a half-bridge configuration. These drivers suit a wide range of motor control and power supply applications in industrial automation and white goods, that require AC and DC motor control boards rated above 100W, and LLC resonant converter power supply topo...
Power film capacitors designed for EV/HEV applications
Two new capacitors have been introduced by AVX, the FHC1 and FHC2 Series power film capacitors were especially designed for electric and hybrid electric vehicle (EV/HEV) applications.Exhibiting high ripple current capabilities, high dielectric strength in operating conditions up to 115°C, low inductance, low ESR, and a low thermal footprint, the new FHC Series capacitors deliver high-reliability performance that compliments and protects high-...
Why are SiC and GaN so important?
The higher switching frequencies, operating temperatures, and voltage handling capabilities of Wide BandGap (WBG) materials such as Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Silicon Carbide (SiC) makes them of fundamental importance to any effort to reduce energy consumption.
Anglia Guide turns up heat on thermal management
A new and comprehensive Thermal Management Guide has been published by Anglia. It provides full details of the broad range of solutions it offers from industry leaders including Aavid Thermalloy, Fischer Elektronik, Calinar, Bergquist, Ohmite and Panasonic.
Gate driver device family range from 2.5A to 8A
The SCALE-iDriver family of integrated circuits from Power Integrations is available at Richardson RFPD along with full design support capabilities. The new ICs are galvanically-isolated single-channel gate driver devices that range in output current from 2.5A to 8A, the industry’s highest output current without an external booster.
