ON Semiconductor Expands High Performance Trench Field Stop IGBT Portfolio
ON Semiconductor has expanded its NGBTxx family of 1,200V trench field stop (FS) insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) devices with nine new energy efficient solutions. The new devices improve overall system switching efficiency, lower power dissipation and improve system reliability. Adding to the company's existing family of over thirty IGBTs, the newest devices expand the available product ratings up to 40 A. This includes devices specifically targeted at high performance power conversion in solar power and uninterruptable power supply (UPS) implementations.

"Dramatic increases in global energy consumption and projected unfavourable environmental and economic impacts continue to drive demand for higher performance power discrete components," said John Trice, senior director and general manager for ON Semiconductor's Power Discrete products. "This new generation of devices brings cost-effective, industry-leading power efficiency without sacrificing robustness. With ON Semiconductor's proprietary Trench Field Stop Technology, we can now give engineers a greater breadth of options to choose from when implementing their power system designs."
The first group of new IGBTs are the NGTB40N120FLWG, NGTB25N120FLWG and NGTB15N120FLWG. These products feature a robust and cost effective trench technology construction, and provide superior performance in high frequency switching applications. Low switch losses and an ultra fast recovery diode make them ideal for high frequency solar, UPS and inverter welder applications. The devices have IC rating of 40 A, 25 A and 15 A respectively. . All three devices are highly optimised for switching applications with frequencies from 10 kilohertz (kHz) to 40 kHz, delivering low on-state voltage (VCEsat) and low gate charge (Qg) characteristics, as well as exhibiting ultra-fast recovery and minimal switching losses to keep power dissipation low. These new IGBT devices all have an operational junction temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C.

The second new group of devices also broaden the portfolio of Trench FS IGBT devices by increasing product ratings up to 40 A. The NGTB30N120LWG and NGTB40N120LWG offer low Vcesat and rugged short circuit characteristics with fast recovery diodes for low frequency (2 - 20 kHz) hard switching applications, such as motor control inverters applications. Complementing these devices are the NGTB30N120IHLWG, NGTB40N120IHLWG, NGTB20N120IHSWG, and NGTB30N120IHSWG, which feature balanced switching and conduction losses for induction heating and other soft switching applications operating at medium frequencies (15 - 30 kHz) including hot pots, rice cookers and microwave appliances.

Energy Efficiency with Class D Amplifier Modules
Class-D switching amplifiers are helping audio designers create personal multimedia devices and home audio/visual systems that demonstrate how compact and stylish equipment can also deliver high sound quality and high audio output power. The key to this breakthrough, providing freedom from the large and bulky boxes housing traditional audio products, lies in the class-D amplifier’s high energy efficiency, which is typically around 90%. This allows designers to reduce or eliminate heatsinks as well as using smaller-sized PCBs and smaller components such as transformers, connectors and power supplies.

The Role of Hall Effect Sensors in Power Distribution Infrastructure
Power distribution units (PDUs) form an essential part of modern computing and data communications hardware. They provide multiple outputs for transferring electrical power with maximum efficiency, controlling the power capacity and safeguarding against the possible causes of supply interruption. With an ever increasing need from tech savvy consumers for higher data throughput and greater quantities of data storage capacity, as well as tough international legislation now governing CO&sub2; emissions, the demands being placed on these units are proving challenging for engineering teams to satisfy.
