Power device line expanded to include ideal diodes with low forward voltage drop
Nexperia announced the addition of two new ideal diode ICs to its continuously growing portfolio of power devices. The NID5100 is suitable for standard industrial and consumer applications while the NID5100-Q100 has been qualified for use in automotive applications. Ideal diodes are MOSFET based devices that offer much lower forward voltage drop than traditional diodes […]
How do SiC and GaN devices age?
By Peter Friedrichs, Infineon Technologies SiC and GaN devices operate at higher stress levels than silicon devices. The semiconductor and automotive industries have strict qualification tests for that. Silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) wide bandgap (WBG) technologies are well known for their performance advantages over silicon (Si) in many high-power areas, including their […]
Centralized LED drivers simplify large-scale lighting installations
Advanced Energy Industries, Inc. has announced the LumaDrive Pre-wired Systems series of high-efficiency remote centralized drivers for large-scale horticultural, greenhouse, and industrial LED lighting applications. These platforms combine multiple 4 kW modules into a cost-effective pre-wired cabinet that simplifies installation, enables simple “hot swap” repairs, eliminates extra dimming control connections, and reduces the overall cost […]
Power device portfolio expanded with low-Ohmic, high-current eFuse
Nexperia announced the NPS3102A and NPS3102B electronic fuses (eFuses) as the latest additions to its ever-expanding power device portfolio. These low-ohmic (17 mΩ), high current (13.5 A), and resettable electronic fuses help to protect downstream loads from exposure to excessive voltages while also protecting power supplies from load faults and large inrush currents. These eFuses […]
