An important characteristic of power semiconductor modules, such as those used in electric drives, wind power and solar systems, is the thermal resistance between the semiconductor and heatsink. A new packaging technology, which replaces solder… read more

Power modules with integrated shunt resistors help to reduce system costs. Today, the market for variable speed drives offers a large number of devices which are functionally similar, fulfil all the minimum requirements and are therefore more or… read more

The electrification trend in the on-road public transportation continues. Especially in China the plug-in-hybrid bus (PHEB) and the battery electric bus (BEB) take a significant part of new vehicle admissions covering more and more share of the… read more

When it comes to trends in the power electronics sector, the pace of change is accelerating, with different emphasis being placed on key factors such as power density, performance or reliability, depending on the final application. One requirement… read more

Whenever we talk about Silicon Carbide and its applications, our thoughts jump to Silicon Carbide MOSFET power modules, the so called “Full SiC” module. This mental bridge is the result of the well-known dynamic performances of a SiC MOSFET. Unipolar… read more
