ICYMI: These tools generally fall into five categories: power-system designers, power-supply calculators, digital power-supply configuration tools, circuit simulation tools, and hardware evaluation platforms.
New 3.3-kV SiC modules from Microchip aim to speed up the adoption of solid-state transformers in data centers and other high-voltage power applications.
Menlo’s MEMS-based 1,000-V, 125-A smart circuit-breaker modules are being tested by the U.S. Navy to improve reliability and efficiency while saving space in MW-scale power systems.
Before power modules are used in the assembly of a system, it is worthwhile to learn whether the modules contain internal structural defects that could cause the module to fail while in operation.
