    2 Min Read

    Transphorm, Inc. announced that its PCIM 2024 showcase will underscore its ability to outperform competitive wide bandgap technologies in higher power systems. For example, Transphorm’s normally-off d-mode SuperGaN®platform delivers higher electron mobility resulting in lower crossover losses versus Silicon Carbide—making it more a cost-effective, higher performing solution for various electric vehicle, datacenter/AI, infrastructure, renewable energy, and other broad industrial applications. To learn more, visit Transphorm during PCIM in Hall 7, Stall 108 during June 11 to 13, 2024.

    Transphorm SuperGaN FETs are in production in a wide range of customer products crossing the power spectrum from low 45 W power adapters to higher power 7.5 kW PSUs. Many of these customer products are the first publicly recognized GaN-based systems of their kind and uniquely demonstrate advantages enabled only by the SuperGaN platform.

    Examples include the previously mentioned liquid-cooled 7.5 kW PSU for mission-critical datacenter/blockchain applications; a 2.7 kW server CRPS with > 82 W/in3 power density (highest in any GaN power system available today); and 2.2 kW and 3 kW rack-mount 1U uninterruptible power supplies (UPSes). These design wins illustrate Transphorm’s ability to drive GaN into the various application markets composing an estimated GaN TAM of $8 billion by 2028.

    In addition to real-world customer products, Transphorm continues to lead in technological achievements having recently demonstrated a 5 microsecond short-circuit withstand time, a bidirectional four-quadrant switch, and a 1200 V GaN-on-Sapphire device.

    On-site demonstrations will include Transphorm solutions for 2- and 3-wheeler electric vehicle chargers along with customer PSUs for renewable energy systems, data centers, and more.

    SemiQ will showcase its latest SiC power solutions and recently launched Known-Good-Die (KGD) screening process at PCIM Europe 2024 in Nuremberg from June 11-13, 2024.

    During the event SemiQ will debut the latest addition to its QSiC™ family of high-speed-switching MOSFET half-bridge modules in S3 packages, which offer enhanced design flexibility and performance in current applications.

    Featuring industry-standard 62mm footprints and standing at 26.3mm in height, the new power modules address the size, weight and power demands of challenging applications, ranging from induction heaters, welding equipment and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to photovoltaic and wind inverters, energy storage systems, high-voltage DC-DC converters and battery charging systems for electric vehicles (EVs). They are available in 600A (GCMX003A120S3B1-N) and 400A (GCMX005A120S3B1-N). Visitors will also be able to see SemiQ’s QSiC family of 1200V modules in SOT-227, half-bridge and full-bridge options.

    Attendees visiting SemiQ’s stand at Alfatec’s booth (Hall 7, 418) will have the unique opportunity to learn more about the recently launched Known-Good-Die (KGD) screening program and see SemiQ’s MOSFET bare die on Known-Good-Die UV tape array for the first time. The KGD process delivers high-quality, electrically sorted and optically inspected advanced SiC MOSFET technology ready for back-end processing and direct die attachment.

    “We’re thrilled to participate at PCIM, a significant event in the power electronics industry,” said Dr. Timothy Han, President of SemiQ. “With the expansion of our QSiC family, our goal is to offer a comprehensive, high-performance SiC portfolio across various sectors and offer customized solutions for cutting-edge designs. Our continued dedication to rigorous testing and quality assurance, delivering unmatched reliability, is embodied in our new KGD program which we will be demonstrating at the event.”

    Founded in 1979, PCIM Europe stands as the pinnacle exhibition and conference for power electronics and its applications. Held annually in Nuremberg, the event attracts industry specialists and academia from around the globe, serving as the platform where new trends, technologies, and developments are first unveiled to the public.

    Schedule a meeting with the SemiQ team right away using online calendar here or email at media@semiq.com.

    Alpha and Omega Semiconductor to Showcase Expanding Line of Advanced Power Management Solutions at PCIM 2024

    3 Min Read

    Alpha and Omega Semiconductor Limited (AOS) will showcase its expanding line of advanced power management solutions at PCIM 2024. Designed to meet the dynamic, important power management challenges in several key application areas and markets, the AOS products highlighted at PCIM include:

    • New Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFET Announcement at PCIM: Supporting the needs of a wide range of automotive and industrial applications, AOS will introduce three new advanced package options for its latest Gen2 SiC MOSFET line. The new packages comprise a surface mount topside cooling option with a Kelvin source that meets the needs of the most power-dense advanced designs. It will also be announced that an AEC-Q101-qualified surface mount package will be in the standard D2PAK-7L footprint. The third package is a half-bridge module that provides an excellent solution for the high power industrial solar and charging station markets. The announcements will detail how these packages support AOS’ comprehensive line of SiC MOSFETs from 10mOhm to 500mOhm and voltages from 650V to 1700V.
    • New Motor Drive Announcement at PCIM: AOS will announce a new range of 60V and 100V drivers for power tools, outdoor garden equipment, and e-mobility applications, including a 100V half bridge, a 100V 3-phase, and a 60V 3-phase. These products all support 100 percent duty cycle operation, and demo boards using AOS motor drivers and MOSFETs will be featured in the AOS booth.
    • Power Supply and Renewable Energy: A significant solution in AOS’ growing High Voltage Super Junction MOSFET portfolio is its industry-leading optimized αMOS5™ 600V to 700V Super Junction MOSFETs that help designers achieve efficiency and density goals while satisfying budget goals. Featuring fast switching, a robust UIS/body diode, and ease of use, these state-of-the-art MOSFETs meet the latest server, telecom rectifier, solar inverter, EV charger, gaming, PC, and universal charging/PD design requirements.
