A better way to handle dc/dc converter hold-up times
Converters with built-in holdup circuitry reduce the size and requirements for input capacitors. Dr. André Buffing, L. Dinkelmann, Traco Power DC/DC converters are generally designed to maintain their output despite brief interruptions of their input power. The duration of this output hold-up often is set by the value of an external capacitor connected across the […]
1-W power modules integrate switching, control, transformer, input/output capacitors
Würth Elektronik has extended the product families of its MagI³C power modules with the MagI³C-FIMM Fixed Isolated MicroModule. It combines the features of an isolated power module with those of a MicroModule in an LGA-7 package and measures just 9 mm x 7 mm x 3.1 mm. The isolation capacitance between the primary and secondary windings […]
IGBT-based power modules target 3-phase motor control, medium-power VFDs
Infineon Technologies AG has launched the IM523 series of the CIPOS Mini family. The highly efficient IPMs (intelligent power modules) are based on the new 600 V Reverse Conducting Drive 2 (RCD2) IGBT technology and come with an open emitter. The CIPOS IM523 series enables the integration of various power and control components to increase […]
Compact unregulated 3-W dc/dc converters target industrial applications
The TMU 3 series consists of a set of isolated 3-W dc/dc converters with unregulated outputs in a standard SIP-4 package. They are designed to offer a compact low-cost alternative to regulated series with no concession on quality and lifetime. They feature a continuous short circuit protection circuit, I/O-isolation of 1,500 Vdc and an operating […]
Dual-channel USB power delivery IC targets automotive apps
indie Semiconductor has launched a dual-channel USB Power Delivery (PD) IC that reduces component count, simplifies designs, and enhances the reliability of in-cabin vehicle charging systems for portable devices. Combining power conversion and control and supporting any configuration of USB Type A and Type C ports, the iND87300 is the automotive industry’s most integrated USB-PD […]
