onsemi released the newest generation silicon and silicon carbide hybrid Power Integrated Modules (PIMs) in an F5BP package, ideally suited to boost the power output of utility-scale solar string inverters or energy storage system (ESS) applications. Compared to previous generations, the modules offer increased power density and higher efficiencies within the same footprint to increase the total system power of a solar inverter from 300kW up to 350kW.
This means a one-gigawatt (GW) capacity utility-scale solar farm using the latest generation modules can achieve an energy savings of nearly two megawatts (MW) per hour or the equivalent of powering more than 700 homes per year. Additionally, fewer modules are required to achieve the same power threshold as the previous generation, which can reduce power device component costs by more than 25%.
With solar power having achieved the lowest levelized cost of energy (LCOE), it is increasingly becoming the go-to source for renewable power generation around the world. To compensate for solar power’s variability, utility operators are also adding large-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) to ensure a stable energy flow to the grid. To support this combination of systems, manufacturers and utilities require solutions that offer maximum efficiency and reliable power conversion. Every 0.1% of efficiency improvement can equate to a quarter of a million dollars in annual operational savings for every one gigawatt of installed capacity.
“As a variable energy source dependent on sunlight, continual advances in increasing system efficiencies, reliability and advanced storage solutions are needed to be able to maintain the stability and reliability of global grids during peak and off-peak power demand,” said Sravan Vanaparthy, vice president, Industrial Power Division, Power Solutions Group, onsemi. “A more efficient infrastructure increases adoption and assures us that, as more solar power generation is built out, less energy is wasted and pushes us forward on a path away from fossil fuels.”
The F5BP-PIMs are integrated with 1050V FS7 IGBT and the 1200V D3 EliteSiC diode to form a foundation that facilitates high voltage and high current power conversion while reducing power dissipation and increasing reliability. The FS7 IGBTs offer low turn-off losses and reduce switching losses by up to 8%, while the EliteSiC diodes provide superior switching performance and lower voltage flicker by 15% compared to previous generations.
These PIMs employ an innovative I-type Neutral Point Clamp (INPC) for the inverter module and a flying capacitor topology for the boost module. The modules also use an optimized electrical layout and advanced Direct Bonded Copper (DBC) substrates to reduce stray inductance and thermal resistance. In addition, a copper baseplate further decreases thermal resistance to the heat sink by 9.3%, ensuring the module remains cool under high operational loads. This thermal management is crucial in maintaining the efficiency and longevity of the modules, making them highly effective for demanding applications that require reliable and sustained power delivery.

Nexperia announced that the ongoing expansion of its NextPower 80 V and 100 V MOSFET portfolio is continuing apace with the release of several new LFPAK devices in industry-standard 5×6 mm and 8×8 mm footprints. These new NextPower 80/100 V MOSFETs are optimized for low (RDSon) and low Qrr, to deliver high efficiency and low spiking in applications including servers, power supplies, fast chargers and USB-PD as well as for a wide range of telecommunications, motor control and other industrial equipment. Designers can choose from a range of 80 V and 100 V devices, with (RDSon) from 1.8 mΩ to 15 mΩ.
Many MOSFET manufacturers focus on achieving high efficiency through low QG(tot) and low QGD, when benchmarking the switching performance of their devices against alternative offerings. However, through extensive research, Nexperia has identified Qrr as being even just as important due to its impact on spiking and, in turn, the amount of electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated during device switching.
By focusing on this parameter, Nexperia has considerably reduced the level of spiking produced by its NextPower 80/100 V MOSFETs and hence also lowered the amount of EMI they produce. This brings significant benefits for end users by reducing the probability of a costly late-stage redesign to include additional external components if their application fails electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing.
The on-resistance (RDSon) of these new MOSFETs has been reduced by up to 31% compared to currently available devices. Nexperia also plans to further strengthen its NextPower 80/100 V portfolio later this year with the release of an additional LFPAK88 MOSFET offering RDS(on) down to 1.2 mΩ @ 80 V, as well as introducing the power dense CCPAK1212 to the portfolio. To further support design-in and qualification of these devices, Nexperia offers the availability of award-winning interactive datasheets, providing engineers with comprehensive and user-friendly insights into device behavior.

Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation has expanded its lineup of 600V N-channel power MOSFETs “DTMOSVI series” fabricated with Toshiba’s latest-generation process, with a super junction structure. These new products are suitable for high efficiency switching power supplies used for data centers and power conditioners of photovoltaic generators. Nine products of “TK40N60Z1, TK080N60Z1, TK080A60Z1, TK085V60Z1, TK125N60Z1, TK125A60Z1, TK130V60Z1, TK155A60Z1 and TK165V60Z1” have been added to the lineup in terms of packages and drain-source On-resistance.
By optimizing the gate design and process, 600V DTMOSVI series products have reduced the value of drain-source On-resistance per unit area by approximately 13%, and drain-source On-resistance × gate-drain charge ―the figure of merit for MOSFET performance― by approximately 52% compared to Toshiba’s current generation DTMOSIV-H series products with the same drain-source voltage rating. This means new products have a better trade-off between conduction loss and switching loss than current products. New products of DTMOSVI series will contribute improving efficiency of power supplies.
Toshiba offers tools that support circuit design for switching power supplies. Alongside the G0 SPICE model, which verifies circuit function in a short time, highly accurate G2 SPICE models that accurately reproduce transient characteristics are now available.
Toshiba will continue to expand its DTMOSVI series lineup, and support energy conservation by reducing power loss in switching power supplies.
