Vishay Intertechnology has released the VODA1275, an automotive‑grade photovoltaic MOSFET driver built in a compact SMD‑4 package with an 8 mm creepage distance and a CTI‑600 mold compound. The driver offers 20 V open‑circuit voltage, 20 µA short‑circuit current, and an 80 µs turn‑on time, delivering 1260 V peak isolation and passing a 5300 VRMS test. Qualified to AEC‑Q102, it targets high‑voltage EV and hybrid applications such as pre‑charge circuits, wall chargers, and battery‑management systems. By consolidating two series drivers into one, it reduces board space and simplifies designs while supporting solid‑state relay alternatives.
Over the past few years GaN HEMTs have moved beyond consumer chargers into high‑performance markets such as AI data‑center servers and humanoid robotics. EPC’s CEO Alex Lidow explained that the material’s low on‑resistance, ultra‑fast switching and high power density make it...
Infineon Technologies has unveiled the TDM24745T, a quad‑phase power module built on its TLVR (trans‑inductor voltage regulator) architecture for AI‑focused data centers. The 9 × 10 × 5 mm³ device packs four power stages, a TLVR inductor and decoupling capacitors, achieving a current density above...
STMicroelectronics launched the Smart STripFET F8 MOSFET series targeting automotive power‑distribution and battery‑management applications. The first part, STL059N4S8AG, is a 40 V, 420 A N‑channel device with a record‑low 0.59 mΩ RDS(on) in a compact PowerFLAT 5×6 package. Its high thermal conductivity, 175 °C rating...
Mitsubishi Electric has signed a memorandum of understanding to discuss integrating its power‑device operations with the semiconductor businesses of ROHM and Toshiba Electronic Devices, alongside Japan Industrial Partners and TBJ Holdings. The talks aim to create a globally competitive semiconductor...
Bourns announced an AEC‑Q‑compliant assembly option for its SSA‑2 analog current sensors, giving automotive, industrial and energy designers a qualified part without restarting the qualification process. The SSA‑2 series delivers precise current measurement, ultra‑low insertion loss and electrically isolated outputs...
Analog Devices’ high‑performance power team, led by Etienne Moulin, highlights the growing overlap between robotics and automotive power architectures, especially the shift to 48‑V systems. The company’s Silent Switcher technology delivers LDO‑level regulation with buck‑regulator efficiency, achieving up to 96%...
Vitrek has launched the V10X, a high‑voltage safety tester delivering up to 30 kV AC output and 100 picoamp leakage resolution. The platform merges hipot, low‑resistance, and ground‑bond testing into one system, targeting automated production lines in sectors such as appliances, EV...
