An earlier type of ASIC chip that was partially finished with rows of unconnected transistors and resistors. The chip was completed by designing and adhering the top metal layers that provided the ...

SAN MATEO, Calif. — ASIC-based gate array vendors have for years been easy targets for makers of field-programmable gate arrays. But AMI Semiconductor wants to prove that gate array vendors can learn ...

An effective power circuit consists of more than just stationary components like SiC and GaN MOSFETs. The gate driver, an autonomous component, precedes the electronic switches and guarantees optimal ...

KAWASAKI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage Corporation ("Toshiba") has today started to provide engineering samples of a gate driver [1] IC, "TB9084FTG,” for three-phase ...

If you are going to use a silicon carbide (SiC) MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) in your next development, you will ask yourself: how do I develop the best gate driver for it ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Traction inverters based on silicon insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) have been the go-to technology for electric vehicles (EVs). However, to ...

In power electronics, for example, as found in drive technology, insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) are frequently used for high-voltage and high-current switching. These power transistors are ...
