GaN switches for high power densities
It has been announced that Finepower, a distribution specialist for power electronics, is adding semiconductor products from the GaN specialist VisIC Technologies to its product range. Gallium-nitride (GaN) power semiconductors are currently the tool of choice to significantly increase the power density of DC/DC converters or onboard charge units.
Gallium-indium liquid metal self-healing electronics - Part 1
This week Indium will be discussing the future of self-healing electronics with Eric Markvicka of Carnegie Mellon University. At the time of writing this, Eric is a PhD Student working on his thesis:Robust Soft-Matter Robotic Materials. Eric is part ofDr. Carmel Majidi’s Soft Materials Lab, focusing on stretchable electronics.
Monitoring and controlling tomorrow’s power electronic systems
At this year's PCIM show, visitors to theAnalog Devices (ADI)stand(Hall 6, stand 446)will see demonstrations highlighting the company’s technologies that span the power-electronics domain, taking in advanced motor drive inverter techniques, driving of the latest SiC and GaN power semiconductors, and precision management of battery-based energy-storage systems.
GaN-on-SiC transistors zero in on IFF applications
The QPD1025L gallium nitride (GaN) on silicon carbide (SiC) transistors from Qorvo are available at Mouser Electronics. Operating with 1.8kW at 65V, the devices deliver high signal integrity and extended reach essential for L-band avionics and identification friend or foe (IFF) applications.
1W DC/DC converter powers GaN drivers
The isolated 1W DC/DC converter series RP-xx06S designed by RECOM and now available at Rutronik power the latest GaN (Gallium Nitride) drivers. The converters meet the demanding requirements of GaN drivers with a 5200VDC isolation and a low isolation capacitance of less than 10pF.
Driving leading-edge SiC/GaN power converters
To take advantage of the new power switch technologies, a complete ecosystem of ICs must be implemented in converter design, starting with the gate driver, says Stefano Gallinaro, Analog Devices and Imad Owaineh, Watt&Well
