Infineon extends automotive MOSFET performance while retaining established package dimensions. The new 40V, 80V and 100V devices combine lower on-resistance with the established 10×12mm TOLL footprint.
-
Infineon has introduced MOSFET technology simplifying automotive electronic power distribution. LinearFET addresses parallel current sharing, inrush behaviour and short-circuit robustness in solid-state distribution systems.
-
Infineon has developed hardware for evaluating higher-voltage AI rack distribution. The 12kW reference board combines hot-swap protection, modular conversion stages and telemetry for evaluation of ±400V and 800V architectures.
-
Infineon’s new server power design targets higher-density enterprise computing equipment. Its modular 5.6kW supply specifies 170W/in³ power density, 54V output and a peak efficiency above 98%.
-
Infineon is embedding silicon carbide devices directly within inverter boards. Its ENDOPACK concept targets lower parasitics and a different manufacturing route for automotive power stages.
-
Infineon and Enphase are testing new 900V bidirectional GaN switches. Initial tests have been completed, and the devices are entering solid-state transformer development builds ahead of production qualification.
-
Vertical Semiconductor signs conditional federal funding letter for semiconductor research. The proposed $73 million award would support vertical GaN transistors and development of a 2.5MW AI computing rack, with performance improvements remaining targets.
-
STMicroelectronics introduces integrated MasterGaN7 devices for compact power conversion applications. Each device combines a 650V half-bridge and gate driver, supports switching up to 2MHz, and is already in volume production.
-
TDK has introduced two thermistor assemblies for high voltage equipment. The M704 supports up to 4,000 V AC, while the M705 offers metal-tag mounting and a higher maximum operating temperature.
-
TDK has introduced compact Y1 capacitors for interference suppression applications. The B3201 series supports 500 V AC operation and temperatures up to 125°C, subject to voltage derating and a defined elevated-temperature duration limit.
