Five special sessions available at PCIM Europe 2015
Over 240 speakers from more than 25 countries introduce the latest technological trends in power electronics components and systems in first publications at the PCIM Europe 2015 Conference.
Patented technology at heart of fast switching capacitors
The newest additions to the CeraLink capacitor series, the CeraLink SP and LP Capacitors from EPCOS are on sale at Mouser Electronics. CeraLink capacitors have a feature that as the voltage across the capacitor increases, the capacitance of the device increases. The capacitors also display very low series resistance (ESR) and very low series inductance (ESL), allowing them to switch extremely fast. These capacitors target high frequency applicati...
Online tool searches for IGBT snubber capacitors
TDK Corporation presents the EPCOS Snubber Cap Finder, an online tool that simplifies and speeds up the search for suitable snubber capacitors to protect IGBT modules against voltage peaks. Upon entering the manufacturer's IGBT code number in the search mask, the integrated database, covering over 1000 IGBT modules from major suppliers, locates the appropriate capacitors.
