Better high-frequency power design through EM simulation
Here’s how a 3D EM simulation can be used to accurately gauge gate-driver trace inductance. JOHN RICE | TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INC. HIGH ELECTRON MOBILITY TRANSISTORS (HEMTS) were first introduced in the early 1980s and are touted for their exceptional switching qualities. These so-called heterojunction, field effect transistors (FETs) were originally developed for high-frequency RF power […]
How we devised a wirelessly powered television set
eGaN FET technology is playing a role in making wireless power practical for a variety of home appliances. Michael A. de Rooij, Yuanzhe Zhang, Efficient Power Conversion Corp. Televisions can get their content wirelessly, but there is one set of wires they still need: those in their power cord. The consumer electronics industry has floated […]
