A range of technologies on show at PCIM Europe 2016
The PCIM Europe 2016 exhibition taking place in Nuremburg in May, will see Panasonic introduce a range of technologies, from the new X-GaN gate driver, the LDPGS thermal management solution, new power choke coils in 12x12 case size for high current automotive applications, as well as the latest capacitors and resistors for high power applications.
Liquid cooling meets the needs of the electronics sector
A growing challenge for the electronics industry is to cool electronics with increasingly higher heat density in reduced spaces, but at the same time, improve performance. Now, a range of standard and customisable products have been introduced by Aavid Thermalloy to solve these problems.
SiC MOSFET exploit SiC performance
Maximising the performance characteristics of SiC, Infineon has announced it is sampling 1,200V SiC MOSFETS. The CoolSiC MOSFETs are available in three- and four- pin package options and improve dynamic loses, especially at high currents.
Delta to Highlight its Strengthened Capabilities
Delta will exhibit at Hannover Messe 2016, an enhanced spectrum of automation and energy management solutions with leading energy efficiency for smart factories, green buildings, renewable energy systems, EV charging networks and more.
Compact gate drivers feature increased creepage distance
Infineon has added a number of wide body package options to its EiceDRIVER Compact galvanically isolated gate driver IC family. The 7.62mm (0.3") 1EDI Compact devices are supplied in a DSO-8 package offering increased creepage distances and improved thermal behaviour.
ROHM semiconductor to exhibit at PCIM 2016
At the occasion of PCIM in Nuremberg from May 10-12th, 2016, ROHM Semiconductor showcase its latest power product novelties for high-speed switching and high power performance, at the same time meeting the need for greater energy savings and higher efficiency (Hall 9 - Booth 316).
Current sensors for isolation in high voltage systems
Any item of equipment that incorporates high voltage control components and a user interface has to be designed with safety clearly in mind in order to protect users from electric shock. This involves equipment meeting isolation standards through the use of insulation layers. Most standards require the user to be protected from electric shock by two levels of protection or a single layer of reinforced insulation protection. Shaun Milano of Allegr...
Sine-waving the route to lower HV-IPD power losses
Consumers have become used to improved energy efficiency and performance of appliances built with variable-speed drives. Georges Tchouangue, Toshiba Electronics Europe believes further demands can be met using sinusoidal current control
Determining DC/DC converter requirements for gate drive applications
How to design ‘well-behaved’ high side gate drive circuits, by Paul Lee, Murata Power Solutions. The MGJ series, for example, has options for +15 or +20V. IGBTs and GaN MOSFETS will be fully ‘on’ with 15V drive but typical SiC MOSFETS may need closer to 20V for full enhancement.
ON Semiconductor takes a leading position within APEC 2016
ON Semiconductor has announced a significant involvement in APEC 2016, a flagship event for the global power electronics industry. During the event, seven senior technical members of ON Semiconductor’s applications engineering and research teams will be sharing vital knowledge through a series of professional education seminars and industry sessions.
