The power-semiconductor switches used in power supplies and inverters are based on two technologies, namely MOSFETs and IGBTs. MOSFETs can operate at relatively high switching frequencies significantly above 30 kHz but, unlike IGBTs, they have a very large chip surface area.
A new generation of IGBT modules f
Targeting applications such as factory automation equipment, motor drives, digital home appliances, and photovoltaic power micro-inverters, the TLP152 gate drive coupler from Toshiba Electronics
International Rectifier, a world leader in power management technology, announced the expansion of its family of 600V insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) with the introduction of the IRGP4640D,
TTI, a specialist distributor of passive, discrete, connector and electromechanical components, offers Cooper Bussmann's ultra-high capacitance PowerStor KW series super-capacitors for use in applications
Targeting applications such as industrial machinery and solar power systems, the PS9332L and PS9332L2 photocouplers from Renesas Electronics have an integrated insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT)
Siemens Industry Automation Division has expanded its Simocode Pro motor management system to include a basic unit with Profinet interface. Linking up Simocode Pro via Ethernet to higher-level automation
