Nowadays Power Modules have become the most convenient way of building a cost effective power supply system. Everything is optimized within the constraints of the particular module manufacturer. The designer can rest assured that the module will do everything electrically and mechanically that is specified, is guaranteed to work to tight specifications such as EMI, efficiency, load cycling and reliability and it is virtually ‘off-the-shelf’ meaning that the all-important time to market pressure is minimized.
Vincotech Paper Discusses the Advantages of Power Modules Compared to Discrete Solutions
With the strong upsurge in the need for power electronics in applications such as solar, wind, industrial drives and UPS, system developers are becoming increasingly aware that the selection of the power devices for these often remotely-sited applications is critical. Such systems require the highest reliability and efficiency to minimize operating costs and build industry integrity for the developer.
