In yesterday’s blog "latest ON Semiconductor innovations in Wide Band Gap technology at PCIM" we talked about all the exciting developments around WBG that ON Semiconductor will be showcasing at PCIM Europe this week. In addition to WBG, the company will showcase its latest power modules that combine high efficiency with robust physical and electrical design for demanding industrial applications in Hall 9, Booth 342.

A power tool demonstration at the booth will illustrate to visitors how ON Semiconductor’s power modules can help achieve compact, high efficiency designs that support long battery life. Power modules are important building blocks in power conversion and motor control applications having power ratings of 100 W to 100 kW. Solar and UPS systems use power modules to boost the voltage from the solar panels and batteries to a suitable DC voltage. This voltage drives an output inverter stage, which generates the required AC voltage. Three-level inverter topologies - such as I-type neutral-point clamped inverters (NPC), T-type neutral-point clamped inverters (TNPC), and split T-type neutral-point clamped inverters - are used to reduce system size and cost, as they allow the use of smaller and cheaper output inductors and capacitors.

High current IGBT gate drivers are key components in industrial and automotive applications such as solar inverters, motor drives, uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), xEV chargers, PTC heaters, powertrain inverters and other high current switching applications. The devices offer robust performance, improved reliability, and a cost-effective solution by eliminating the need for many additional components. ON Semiconductor’s new NCD570x series of gate drivers will be on display, demonstrating high drive current for valuable, improved system efficiency and the ability to fully integrate multiple protection features for enhanced safety.

The company’s automotive portfolio continues to expand to support diversifying applications across the whole low, medium and high-power spectrum. From devices for in-car media applications, through air conditioning to high-power solutions for internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid, and pure electric powertrains, ON Semiconductor is continually developing new products to help support and accelerate the most rapid advances in vehicle technology in decades. An example of this is the new ASPM27 three-phase AEC-qualified Intelligent Power Module (IPM), an advanced Automotive Smart Power Module (SPM) that provides fully-featured, high-performance inverter output state for hybrid and electric vehicles. These modules integrate drivers, IGBTs and diodes to give a smaller, more reliable solution with enhanced thermal performance for use in applications such as automotive e-compressors for HVAC systems, electric oil pump controllers and high-voltage superchargers.

If that wasn’t enough ON Semiconductor experts will be presenting at both the Exhibitor and E-Mobility Forums as well as presenting posters throughout the event. See the below schedule, for even more information about ON Semiconductor at PCIM, visit www.onsemi.com/pcim
