When we use an electronic component, we have some idea of what goes on inside it. We know that inside a transistor there’s a little piece of semiconductor with a junction made from differently doped ...

IXYS Corporation announced the introduction of the SS150 and SS275 Series High Power Silicon Carbide (SiC) Diodes by its IXYS Colorado division. Three diode configurations provide designers with ...

The semiconductor industry has a well-established history of “smaller, faster, and cheaper.” Improving performance and reducing device cost while shrinking packaging size is fundamental to virtually ...

A new diode looks set to steal the humble LED's thunder. Dubbed a diode for light, and crafted using standard silicon chip fabrication techniques, this is a key discovery that will pave the path to ...

A close look at SiC’s benefits. How to improve three-phase inverters for variable motor drives. The most important development in power electronics in recent years is the rise of so-called ...
