Expanding MOSFET portfolio with 60V TrenchT3 devices
IXYS announced an expansion of its low-voltage Trench MOSFET products, 60V TrenchT3 HiPerFET Power MOSFETs. With on-resistance as low as 3.1 milliohms, these devices are designed for high power density, switched-mode power conversion applications.These new MOSFETs can withstand a junction temperature up to 175ºC and are avalanche rated at high avalanche current levels, ensuring device ruggedness in demanding industrial applications.
Hylec-APL clinches Edmundson Electrical deal
The LuxLive exhibition in London was the setting for Hylec-APL to sign a major commercial agreement with Edmundson Electrical, the UK’s largest electrical wholesaler. The agreement covers the supply of Hylec-APL’s electrical and electronic products to Edmundson Electrical’s 350 outlets throughout the country, including all Edmundson, Electric Center and Lockwells branches.
Relay contact materials – does it matter?
If a relay ‘works’, why worry any further about its contact materials? Here, Norman Carnt of Finder UK explains why access to the right contact material may be important.
The challenges for E-Mobility charging applications
Once regarded as a temporary hype, the e-mobility sector is growing fast and strong with some predicting it could take a 35% share of car sales by 2035. According to analysts at EV Volumes plug-in EV are charging forward worldwide, with more than 2 million vehicles expected to be on the roads by the end of 2016. In the first half of 2016 around 312,000 plug-in electric cars were sold — a nearly 50%increase over the first half of 2015.
Power distribution unit designed for the agricultural world
MTApresents atElectronica 2016 the new MEC 97 modular electrical center for the distribution of power and the protectionof major electrical utilities in off-road applications.MEC 97 is a plug&play product produced with the PCB (printed circuit board) logic and with press-fitassembly, which ensures optimum electrical contacts even in the presence of strong vibrations.
‘Prototype pathway’ yields organ transplant technology
Organ transplantation has come a long way from its early days in the mid-twentieth century. But even with major medical advances, there’s still an admittedly familiar factor at play: ice.Just prior to transplantation, an organ is reconstructed and prepared in the sterile operating room during what is known as the “backbench procedure.” As surgeons prepare the organ, it stays cooled and preserved in a hypothermic state in a basin...
Wirepas and m2ocity partner for Smart City IoT applications
Wirepas and m2ocity, the leading French IoT operator, have partnered to provide scalable and reliable connectivity for Smart City applications, such as Smart Street Lighting. m2ocity is constantly looking for and testing new leading edge technologies. They have been satisfied with the results obtained with Wirepas Connectivity. "We conducted a joint proof of concept project where we were impressed by the results".
Compact photorelays suit high performance switching
Two halogen-free photorelays have been introduced byToshiba, offering minimum isolation voltage of 3750VRMS.The TLP172AM and TLP172GM are housed in 4-pin SO6 packages that can operate at a maximum temperature of +110°C.Both products can be used to replace mechanical relays and are suited to designs demanding high-performance switching, electrical isolation and extended temperature operation.
Next-gen switches enable the replacement of electromechanical relays
Supporting the trend towards decentralised, intelligent and cost effective vehicle power net architectures is Infineon Technologies AG. Infineon has now launched Power PROFET, a new ultra-low ohmic smart high-side switch family. These protected switches offer the lowest on-resistance and the highest energy capability on the market.
