Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. announced that at electronica 2024, the company will be exhibiting its broad portfolio of passive and semiconductor solutions, and discussing their pivotal role in shaping a sustainable future through the all-electric society. Vishay experts will be on hand to dive into cutting-edge developments in automation, AI, e-mobility, and smart and alternative energy technologies.

In hall C4, booth 478, Vishay will be showcasing its differentiated products and solutions in a range of applications and use cases, including AI, alternative energy, energy storage systems (ESS), ADAS, e-mobility and urban mobility, EV charging infrastructure, HMI, HVAC, grid management, and building automation. In reference designs on display, Vishay’s components — including the company’s latest silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFETs, diodes, and power modules — make up to 70 % or more of the BOMs. Among the highlights taking center stage at Vishay’s booth will be:

AI

  • A multi-phase power board for SoCs used in AI applications featuring 100 A smart power stages, ultra low DCR, vertical-mount IHVR inductors, and polymer tantalum capacitors

Alternative Energy

  • An auxiliary power system for solar inverters, featuring 1200 V MaxSiC™ series SiC MOSFETs and FRED Pt® hyperfast rectifiers for the conversion of 100 V to 700 V inputs down to 24 V
  • A bidirectional 230 V AC / 1500 V DC multi-waveform direct inverter with battery storage, featuring surface-mount MOSFETs with low on-resistance and NTC thermistors
  • A 10 kW hybrid solar inverter with MPPT, featuring 1200 V, 15 A SiC diodes

e-Mobility

  • An intelligent battery shunt built on WSBE Power Metal Strip® resistors, with low TCR and a CAN FD interface for 400 V / 800 V systems
  • A 22 kW bidirectional 800 V to 800 V power converter for OBCs featuring SiC power modules
  • A 4 kW bidirectional 800 V to 48 V power converter for auxiliary power featuring Si and SiC MOSFETs
  • Active discharge circuits with wirewound safety resistors and MOSFET drivers for 400 V / 800 V DC-Link capacitors

ADAS

  • A DMS / CMS system in which IR LEDs shut off when a user comes too close, featuring high accuracy ambient lights sensors with I²C interfaces; reflective optical sensors with transistor output; and fully integrated proximity and ambient lights sensors with infrared emitters, I²C interfaces, and interrupt functions

ESS

  • Isolated busbar current sensors with analog output in which an isolation amplifier transmits voltage signals from a WSBE shunt and WSL2726 resistor

HMI and EMI Suppression

  • An HMI featuring IHPT series haptic feedback actuators with Immersion Corporation licenses
  • A multi-axis robot capturing and displaying the EMI performance of IHLE® inductors and competing devices running side by side

Grid Management and Power Conversion

  • A smart meter and gateway for the real-time monitoring of energy consumption and generation in the home
  • A bidirectional 72 V / 12 V DC/DC converter with Transzorb® TVS for telecom power supplies

Additional reference designs and demonstrations being offered by Vishay at electronica 2024 will include isolated AC/DC voltage sensors for high voltage networks; a BMS optical communication system; a compact 800 V power distribution solution; a 48 V, 15 kW traction inverter; a 48 V, 3 kW on-board charger; a 30 kW fast charger; a BLDC motor control board for heat pumps; a smart smoke, CO, and heat detector with supercapacitor backup; a photovoltaic energy harvester featuring ENYCAP® capacitors; a dual-side cooled, low voltage BLDC motor controller with high thermal efficiency, as well as designs featuring inrush current limiters and sensing thermistor solutions from the company’s latest acquisition: Ametherm.
