Both consists of a power module soldered to driver board “The companion gate driver boards are designed to be integrated with [power] modules to provide an all-in-one motor drive solution for the electrification of systems such as flight controls, braking and landing gear for drones to all-electric aircraft,” according to the company. CD-MSCSM70XM19CTYZBNMG is rated […]
April 17, 2024 — Microchip Technology recently announced a new integrated actuation power solution that combines companion gate driver boards with our expansive Hybrid Power Drive (HPD) modules in silicon carbide or silicon technology with a power range of 5 kVA to 20 kVA. The new integrated actuation power solution maintains the same footprint regardless of the power […]
It enables small module designs with reduced component count for improved safety and electrification: high voltage interlocks, charging flaps, seatbelts, hood/trunk, gear tooth sensing, or brake-by-wire applications. For traditional safety automotive latches and switches, ranging from door and boot/trunk handles to seatbelts and brake light switches, the standard design uses a mechanical contact or […]
This has been developed in collaboration with the GaN company Innoscience and magnetics expert, Frenetic. Designs will be released throughout 2024 to support a new class of sustainable USB-C chargers, adapters, and in-wall sockets. The first 65W solution is expected to be announced towards the end of March 2024. Usb-c cable connector and phone part […]
Called LT8418, this IC looks very much like the output stage used within the recently announced GaN driving dc-dc controller ICs LTC7890 and LTC7891. Both high-side and low-side outputs have separate pull-up and pull-down connections on the IC package channels so that additional resistors can be used to tune GaN transistor turn-on and turn-off times […]
“In recent years, power supplies for lighting and motors for pumps are required to be smaller as devices become more sophisticated – spurring the demand for compact mosfets that are essential for switching operation,” said the company. “Generally, however, it has been difficult to reduce the size [from 6.6 x 10 x 2.3mm TO-252] while […]
The Ericsson PKA2232PI is an IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) module manufactured by Ericsson, a well-known company in the field of telecommunications and electronics. Here is some information about this IGBT module: IGBT modules like the Ericsson PKA2232PI are commonly used in various power electronics applications, including motor drives, inverters, power amplifiers, and other high-power […]
RECOM has added a pre-formed lead option to its popular 2A switching regulator. The RECOM R-78K-2.0 series is a cost-efficient drop-in replacement for through-hole ‘78 series’ three-terminal linear regulators. The parts provide 2A-rated output and greatly improved efficiency over linear types, eradicating heatsinking and its associated costs while freeing up valuable board space. The series […]
