Couldn’t get to Nuremberg in time for this spring’s PCIM (power control, intelligent motion) exhibition? Here’s a digested summary of the most compelling new products and other interesting developments from the show. Sally Ward-Foxton rounds up the most interesting MOSFETs, excellent IGBTs and the best of the rest from PCIM 2013.

Microsemi launches its next-gen 650 volt non-punch through insulated bipolar gate transistors, offered in 45A, 70A and 95A current ratings. Microsemi's new NPT IGBT product family is designed for operation in harsh environments and is particularly well-suited for industrial products such as solar inverters, welders and switch mode power supplies.

Insulated-gate bipolar transistors require full protection to avoid damage and failures resulting from conditions such as short circuits, overloads and overvoltages. The protection is key to ensuring safe and stable power-converter operations in applications such as motor drives and solar and wind power generation systems. To detect over-current and overload conditions, isolation amplifiers featuring fast response or fast fault feedback can be us...

IXYS launch the IX2113 High and Low Side Gate Driver IC with high voltage IC that can drive MOSFETs and IGBTs that operate up to 600V. Both the high side and low side outputs feature integrated power DMOS transistors, each capable of sourcing and sinking over 2A of gate drive current.

IXYS announces the immediate availability of the IX4426, IX4427, and IX4428 low-cost, dual low-side gate driver ICs. Each of the IX4426/7/8 outputs is capable of sourcing and sinking 1.5A, and they have a wide operating voltage range of 4.5V to 35V, which is much higher than competitive parts. The inputs of each driver are TTL and CMOS compatible, and are virtually immune to latch-up. The IX4426/7/8 are specified with an operating temperature r...

RECOM Electronic introduces its new DC-DC converters RH, RV, RP, RGZ, RKZ, RxxPxx, and RxxP2xx, which are especially designed for IGBT driver circuits. Their asymmetric outputs of +15V and -9V makes them ideal to power IGBT drivers, so now just one converter is needed where previously two were required.

Agilent Technologies' Integrated Circuits Characterisation and Analysis Program (IC-CAP) software has been enhanced to provide full support for the B1505A Power Device Analyser/Curve Tracer, including the instrument’s new high-power, high-current source monitor unit modules.

Fairchild Semiconductor developed the SPM 5 smart power module series 3-phase MOSFET inverter solution, providing designers an AC induction motor and Brushless DC motor inverter solution for motors up to 200W including fan motors, dish washer pumps, and various small industrial motors. The new SPM 5 series is composed of six fast-recovery MOSFETs, and three half-bridge HVICs for gate driving. The devices provide low electromagnetic interference c...

CUI has launched a line of board mount dc-dc converters for IGBT gate drivers. Devices in the VQA series provide short circuit protection with 3000 Vac input to output isolation (4242 Vdc), and are ideally suited to provide a fully isolated gate drive for both industrial and clean energy applications, such as wind turbines and solar panels.

Semikron has added dual module versions to its MiniSKiiP IGBT power semiconductor module family, more than doubling the range’s power capability to 90kW. The portfolio of the new MiniSKiiP Dual covers 150A-300A/650V, 150A-300A/1200V and 100A-200A/1700V.
