Power Integrations

Our PI Expert design tool can recommend board layouts that help you pass EMI tests, minimize loop area, optimize thermal performance and include necessary protection features in a power supply design. Watch Trevor Hiatt demonstrate how to generate a board layout that includes recommendations for improvements highlighted on the layout diagram. https://okt.to/b7Vjnm #powerelectronics #semiconductor

LinkSwitch-XT2SR offline switcher ICs with integrated Synchronous Rectification are perfect for non-isolated flyback designs up to 15 W. They feature exceptionally high efficiency of up to 90% for small open-frame power supplies. With no-load consumption of just 0.005 W (50 mW), LinkSwitch-XT2SR ICs easily surpass the requirements of the European Union’s Energy-Related Products (ErP) Directive for standby power consumption. https://okt.to/U9kjDQ

Safeguarding energy meters from magnetic tampering is necessary to prevent people from trying to lower their energy bills by placing a large magnet next to the meter. This design example report (DER-711), featuring a 6.6 W dual-output flyback converter with a LinkSwitch-XT2 offline switcher IC, prevents energy pirating. With a low-RDS (ON), 900 V MOSFET, LinkSwitch-XT2 improves efficiency at full-load, maintains efficiency at light-load and resists magnetic tampering. https://okt.to/kd7A31

PI Vice President of Marketing Doug Bailey explains the Power of Integration in this video. Our #InnoSwitch switcher ICs incorporate or eliminate many discrete components in a power supply, each would otherwise need to be independently designed, specified, sourced and made available to manufacturing. The result of this integration is a significant reduction in component count and a more efficient, more effective and more reliable power supply. #powerelectronics #semiconductors

The BridgeSwitch-2 hardware-software bundle for brushless DC motor drive expands output range, supporting 30 W to 746 W (1 horsepower). Inverter efficiency is now up to 99%, and sleep-mode power consumption is as low as 10 mW. Learn more here - https://okt.to/1mKQLJ

1700 V SiC-based InnoSwitch3-AQ switcher ICs allow the design of compact power supplies for 800 V battery electric vehicle systems. A new design example report (DER-952Q) describes an 86 W auxiliary equipment power supply for 800 V BEVs that is 92% efficient, heatsink-less and very low profile.

While chargers and adapters make up about half of all power supplies shipped worldwide, nearly all the rest are used in electronic systems that require multiple voltage rails. What types of multi-output power supplies are you designing? Take a 5-minute survey to share with us your needs and preferences! https://okt.to/3pI7Ah

InnoMux-2 switcher ICs for multi-output power supplies feature unique integrated pulse sharing that allows accurate regulation on all outputs. Xingda Yan explains in a new video and his white paper: https://okt.to/6GovVl

A few days ago, we told you about this new RICOMM 370 W desktop power station that features six #PowiGaN-based ICs (four InnoSwitch5-Pro chips for USB PD 3.1 ports; two HiperPFS-5 chips for PFC) and no metal heatsinks!
