Switching power supply delivers 225W with fan cooling
The OF(M)225 Series of open frame switching power supplies from Gresham Power Electronics utilises a highly advanced circuit topology to deliver 225W with fan cooling and 120W convection cooled in an industry standard package that has a 2.00 x 4.00in. footprint while being just 1.0in. high (50.8 x 101.6 x 25.4mm).
Single channel gate driver ICs provide a 300 mil wide body package
Infineon Technologies is now offering the EiceDRIVER 1EDC Compact 300mm family of single channel gate driver ICs. With an insulation test voltage of V ISO = 2500 V(rms) for 60 sec these galvanically isolated drivers are recognised under UL 1577. Due to their high switching frequency of up to 1,000kHz they do not only drive IGBTs, but can also be integrated in demanding SiC MOSFET topologies.
