Power is the lifeblood of electronics. Understanding it is critical! The entire system depends on it, so it must work correctly.

And on we go with the Power Semiconductor #Rollercoaster! Please all get on board and hold on tight, the dynamic gate stress is going into the second round. The question is: Will it drift?

Check out this last episode of Chalk Talk where we talk about trends in EV-charging applications and how #Infineon CoolSiC devices can help maximize power density and improve system efficiency. Thanks Amelia Dalton! #SiC #CoolSiC #evcharging #powerelectronics

Today’s EV Charging designs require careful consideration of the greater power grid infrastructure they are part of as well as the increased flexibility being demanded by the increased number of charging end applications. Factors such as increased charging cycles required, addition of bi-directional charging, on-site energy storage, and the increased number of vehicles served are requiring greater attention when it comes to the choice of technologies. In this episode of Chalk Talk (sponsored by Infineon Technologies and Mouser Electronics), Amelia Dalton and Daniel Dalpiaz from Infineon talk about trends in the greater electrical vehicle charging landscape, typical block diagram components, and tradeoffs between discrete devices versus power modules. They also discuss choices between IGBT’s and Silicon Carbide, the advantages of advanced packaging techniques in both power discrete and power module solutions, and how reliability is increasingly important due to demands for more charging cycles per day. https://lnkd.in/egrCEpgT

Hopefully with all these progress in EV space, owning any type of EV will be more affordable in countries like the Philippines so that we can really cut down carbon emissions. Reducing cost of EV ownership will encourage public transport operators to replace their fossil fuel powered vehicles.

#Automotive #ConsumerElectronics   In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton and Heath Ogurisu from ROHM Semiconductor investigate the benefits of ROHM Semiconductor’s RGW and RGWS Series of IGBTs. They explore how the soft switching of these hybrid IGBTs contribute to energy savings and power generation efficiency and why these IGBTs provide a well-balanced solution for switching … Read More → "ROHM’s 3rd Gen 650V IGBT for a Wide range of Applications: RGW and RGWS Series – Mouser and ROHM" https://lnkd.in/g6HukmyU

⏰ Today at 11:30 AM PT! https://lnkd.in/gwJ4NYMi Abstract: Power rail noise is one of the most significant sources of jitter in high-speed systems, phase noise in RF systems, and noise in A/D and D/A converters. Semiconductor manufacturers are responding by continuously improving Power Supply Rejection Ratio (PSRR). PDN impedances continue to fall, challenging us to measure ever-lower impedance values. These improvements expose a dramatic increase in measurement error. Most of this error is related to Ground Loops, which is the topic of today’s discussion with Steven Sandler of #Picotest and Tony Ambrose of #Tektronix. #psrr #jitter #powersystems #semiconductor

Ground loops screw up measurements. Learn how and how to correct them here
