Power Device Released by Renesas Enables Safe Power Distribution in Next-Gen E/E Architectures

Power device released by Renesas enables safe power distribution in next-gen E/E architectures. The announcement came for an Intelligent Power Device (IPD) that the company is saying is a safe and flexible power distribution system in automotive vehicles.

The IPDs are addressing next-generation requirements for Electric/Electronic (E/E) architectures. The latest device is the RAJ2810024H12HPD and is available in a small TO-252-7 package. The compact size of the device reduces mounting areas by as much as 40% compared to the traditional TO-263 package product.

Ideal Power Launches its First Power Module Aimed at the Solid State Circuit Breaker Market

Ideal Power launches its first power module aimed at the solid-state circuit breaker market. The SymCool Power Module is a multi-die B-TRAN module rated at 1200V 100A featuring double-sided cooling.

The design is meant to meet the low conduction loss needs of the solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) market. The B-Tran is the proprietary patented semiconductor power switch that is bidirectional, used in the SymCool Power Module.

Infineon HiRel DC-DC Converter Business is being Acquired by Micross

Infineon HiRel DC-DC converter business is being acquired by Micross Components Inc. The deal was made definitive on January 10, 2023, in an agreement to purchase the High-Reliability DC-DC converter business of Infineon Technologies, by Micross Components Inc.

Infineon has long been recognized for its high-reliability products in such industries as strategic defense, aerospace, space, and other industries requiring high-reliability DC-DC converters. They manufacture a wide range of power devices that can withstand the most challenging environments.

The Power Module is Getting a New Package

This week we are discussing power modules and the latest innovations.

Sooner or later there had to be a change from mechanical circuit breakers to electrical ones. The semiconductor is fast becoming a powerhouse to the mechanical world, but also in the electronics grid function.

The low conduction of the electric power switch is offering longer life and better conduction of the high-voltage systems found in all renewable energy systems and the utility grid in general.

The uses for an electric circuit breaker are endless and have been just waiting in the wings for a bi-directional, top and bottom cooling system that is as thermally aware as any temperature sensor. This week we showcase just such a device.

Take a deeper dive into the future of the grid, for renewable energy, and for the general utility systems that are so deeply in need of upgrades to the aging infrastructure.

In the new year we will be asking for opinions, what would you like to see, more editorial or less, more of a particular topic, or less? Let us know. Reach out to the Product Editor
