Here’s a RoundUp of this week’s must-read articles – we’ll delve into the latest developments on SiC, Battery Cell Monitoring, EV Testing!
The high power density 70 W solution with efficiency above 94.5% eliminates need for power factor correction (PFC).
The new I-V curve tracer boosts efficiency and accuracy for faster and smarter utility-scale solar testing.
The EPC9193 contains all the necessary critical functions circuits to support a complete motor drive inverter.
A collaboration between the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) and centrotherm International AG to further the development of 200mm Silicon Carbide (SiC) technology.
Tektronix offers a wide selection of probes, oscilloscopes, and application software that helps engineers to get faster insights into their EV designs.
Cell-to-pack is an innovative battery design that involves integrating the cells directly into the pack, eliminating the need for the traditional module-based architectures.
In terms of electric mobility, traction inverters based on silicon carbide (SiC) power devices are a huge step forward.
Maurizio Di Paolo Emilio holds a Ph. D. in Physics and is a Telecommunications Engineer. He has worked on various international projects in the field of gravitational waves research, designing a thermal compensation system (TCS) and data acquisition and control systems, and on others about x-ray microbeams in collaboration with Columbia University, high voltage systems and space technologies for communications and motor control with ESA/INFN. TCS has been applied to the Virgo and LIGO experiments, which detected gravitational waves for the first time and earned the Nobel Prize in 2017. Since 2007, he has been a reviewer for scientific publications for academics such as Microelectronics Journal and IEEE journals. Moreover, he has collaborated with different electronic industry companies and several Italian and English blogs and magazines, such as Electronics World, Elektor, Mouser, Automazione Industriale, Electronic Design, All About Circuits, Fare Elettronica, Elettronica Oggi, and PCB Magazine, as a technical writer/editor, specializing in several topics of electronics and technology. From 2015 to 2018, he was the editor-in-chief of Firmware and Elettronica Open Source, which are technical blogs and magazines for the electronics industry. He participated in many conferences as a speaker of keynotes for different topics such as x-ray, space technologies, and power supplies. Maurizio enjoys writing and telling stories about Power Electronics, Wide Bandgap Semiconductors, Automotive, IoT, Embedded, Energy, and Quantum Computing. Maurizio has been an AspenCore content editor since 2019. He is currently editor-in-chief of Power Electronics News and EEWeb and a correspondent for EE Times. He is the host of PowerUP, a podcast about power electronics, and the promoter and organizer of the PowerUP Virtual Conference, a summit where each year great speakers talk about the power electronics design trends. Moreover, he has contributed to a number of technical and scientific articles as well as a couple of Springer books on energy harvesting and data acquisition and control systems.
