ABB is expanding direct-current conversion through its Advantics acquisition agreement. The French specialist adds silicon-carbide hardware, firmware, and controls for demanding power infrastructure.
XP Power has extended its enclosed industrial AC/DC supply range. LBA models cover 35W to 350W with universal input.
QinetiQ is industrialising laser-source technology developed through the DragonFire programme. HELENA spans mobile counter-drone systems and larger naval configurations.
Custom Electronics has patented safer parallel connection for field power. The architecture supports hot-swappable batteries, solar equipment, and other DC sources without cross-discharge.
Bourns has integrated common-mode filtering into an automotive BMS transformer. The AEC-Q200 device combines isolation and noise suppression for high-voltage battery communications.
Itelcond has raised aluminium-electrolytic DC-link capacitor ratings to 550 volts. The new families target drives, inverters, chargers, storage, UPS equipment, and renewable-energy systems.
Europe’s electrification plan will reshape industrial electronics demand through 2040. Power semiconductors, drives, storage, charging, sensing, and grid-control hardware will carry a growing share of the investment.
Microchip has introduced an industrial 90W Power over Ethernet midspan. The PD-9601GCI adds IEEE 802.3bt power to existing Gigabit networks without replacing the installed switch.
TT Electronics will present high-density aerospace power systems at Farnborough. Its portfolio includes high-voltage conversion, bidirectional platforms, VPX supplies, SiC modules, magnetics, and electronic assemblies.
