The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) announced it will award up to 20 students with a $1000 grant to cover part of their travel and conference expenses to attend APEC 2010 in Palm Springs, CA, February 21-26. The PSMA Student Attendance Grant program began with the APEC Conference in 2006 and has been successful in introducing new and potentially future power electronic professionals to APEC and to the industry.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) has announced availability of its On-line Energy Efficiency Database (EEDB) as a service to the industry. The number of energy efficiency standards and the world wide agencies that generate them continue to grow daily. It is time consuming for an individual or company to keep track of the many actions and activities by government and industry groups. The PSMA on-line energy efficiency standards database provides one click access to the very latest global standards and initiatives.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association has announced the publication of the 2009 PSMA Power Technology Roadmap . This report is the sixth in a series done every three years to look at the technology trends in power technology over the next four to five years. In 2008, leaders from the key groups - end users, power supply manufacturers and component suppliers - got together to present, compare and discuss their views on the trends in power technology.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA ) has announced the election of four industry leaders to serve as members of the association's Board of Directors. Elected to the board for the first time are Rob Hill and Marshall Miles. Alex Levran, Ph.D. and Bharat S. Shah were each re-elected to serve a second three-year term. Elections were conducted at the PSMA annual meeting held in conjunction with the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC) in Austin, Texas.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) has announced that it has issued a report entitled Market and Technology Report on Power Supply in a Package – Power Supply on a Chip. This report documents the first phase of a two-phase special project whose objective is to provide insight to both PSMA members and the broader electronics industry as to the potential impact of this paradigm shift within the power supply industry.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) has announced the availability of an online database containing the evolving standards and regulations for energy efficiency. This online database, available through the Energy Efficiency Forum on the PSMA web site, includes the various organizations – state, national and worldwide – that are active in establishing energy efficiency standards and regulations for power supplies used in commercial applications.
PSMA has announced the availability to its members of an e-learning tutorial on the basics of nanotechnology and what is happening in the field. The focus of the tutorial is for technical and marketing people involved in the power sources industry who have heard of nanotechnology but have not had any exposure to it, or as a refresher of the basics for those who are somewhat familiar with the technology. The tutorial highlights domestic and global activities, links to hands-on websites, and includes a glossary of basic nanotechnology vocabulary.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA ) has announced availability of a reprint of the classic book Applications Of Magnetism authored by the late J. K. Watson and originally published by John Wiley and Sons in 1980.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA ) has announced the release of Follow the Power, a report on the Energy Efficiency Workshop held on February 24, 2007 and sponsored by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and PSMA. This benchmark report captures the major possible energy efficiency improvements for the entire power network from Power Generator to the Integrated Circuit (the load).
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association PSMA announces that it has undertaken a Special Project to survey the Power Supply in Package (PSiP) and Power Supply on Chip (PSoC) landscape and to provide insight to both PSMA members and the broader industry as to the potential impact of this paradigm shift within the power industry.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) has announced publication of The Handbook of Standardized Terminology for the Power Sources Industry–3rd Edition . Revised and expanded, this unique handbook contains hundreds of added terms, especially selected for the power electronics professional. The third edition also contains illustrations and four new appendices, including a listing of EMI specifications, excerpts from international standards of units and symbols, along with guides for authors of technical papers. These added resources provide concise, easy-to-use references for engineers involved in technical writing and presentations.
The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) is pleased to announce availability of the classic engineering text Electronic Transformers and Circuits – Third Edition Reprint, authored by the late Rueben Lee and co-authored by Leo Wilson and Charles E. Carter. The book was initially published by John Wiley and Sons in 1988, but has been out of print for several years. Copies of this practical design treatment of magnetics will be available for sale at this year's Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC 2007) to be held in Anaheim, California, February 25-March 1, 2007 and through the PSMA web site – www.psma.com.
