Fairchild Semiconductor to Highlight Motion Control, Embedded DC-DC and Industrial Power Supply Solutions at PCIM Europe 2011
Demonstrations, Conference Papers and Presentations Focus on Efficient Energy, Robust Reliability and Powerful Possibilities
Online, May 2, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Fairchild Semiconductor, (NYSE: FCS), a leading global supplier of high performance power and mobile products, will demonstrate industry-leading technologies for power supplies and motion control applications at PCIM Europe 2011, 17-19 May, in Hall 12, booth 601, in Nuremberg, Germany.
At the show, Fairchild Semiconductor will focus on embedded DC-DC, industrial power supply, motor and automotive solutions.
Embedded DC-DC solutions will address the designer's need for high efficiency at full and light load conditions while solving thermal issues, increasing power density and meeting space constraints.
Industrial power supply solutions address the need to decrease time-to-market while differentiating designs. These solutions also focus on the design demands required to meet energy regulations for lower standby power consumption, while providing robust and reliable operations without downtime. Motor and automotive solutions highlight Fairchild's ability to increase the reliability and efficiency of a motor drive in limited PCB space while reducing system failures when the DC drives are operated under extreme conditions.
Demonstrations at PCIM Europe 2011 include:
• DC-DC power solutions that showcase our AccuPower™ load switch series, the industry's first 2.8V to 36V integrated load switches, intended to address the designer's mid-voltage needs, as well as mid-voltage MOSFETs designed specifically to minimize conduction loss, switch node ringing, and to improve the overall efficiency of DC-DC converters.
• Lighting solutions like the FAN6300A, a PWM controller which can be used for a 20W dimmable board. This product provides several features to enhance the performance of flyback converters.
• Industrial solutions including our FOD8012, a full duplex, bi-directional, high-speed logic gate optocoupler, which supports isolated communications allowing digital signals to communicate between systems without conducting ground loops or hazardous voltages.
• Motor solutions including Fairchild's series 5 smart power modules (SPM®) with built-in bootstrap diodes and gate drivers in small packages (29mm x 12mm) for increased manufacturing flexibility. Also on display will be new 40V - 150V MOSFETs employing a shielded-gate structure that provides charge balance, offering high robustness (UIS) with excellent body diode performance and a lower Irrm and higher dv/dt rating.
Poster/Dialog Sessions from Fairchild experts at PCIM Europe include:
New Medium Voltage Power MOSFETs for Synchronous Rectification - Wonsuk Choi, Dongwook Kim and SungMo Young will discuss how the latest shielded-gate technology can dramatically reduce both on-resistance and gate charge. (PP11, Tuesday, 17 May, 16:00-17:15)
New Generation of Smart Power Module for Home Appliances Motor Drive Applications - Taesung Kwon, Steve Han, Elvis Ma, and Sung-Il Yong will introduce new Motion-SPM™ devices in
µ-Mini-DIP packaging which are fully optimized intelligent integrated IGBT inverter modules for home appliance motor drive applications. (PP20, Tuesday, 17 May, 16:00-17:15)
A Power-on Reset Circuit for HVIC Targeting Resiliency Against High Voltage Peak Noise - Paul Jung-Ho Lee, Jong-Mu Lee and Won-Hi Oh will describe a power-on reset circuit that is seamlessly interwoven with an extant UVLO (Under Voltage Lock Out) circuit, thereby adding a minimal number of circuit elements.
