You’re undoubtedly familiar with power-switching devices such as the venerable and still very viable insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT). An enhanced variation is the B-TRAN bipolar junction ...

Ideal Power is aiming to compete with smart IGBT modules, with a 1.2kV 160A (100°C, 240A at 25°C) power module built around its novel ‘B-Tran’ bi-direction semiconductor switch. Called IPA01216DFx-HS, ...

Nowadays, the majority of systems have a microcontroller that executes an application program to implement functionality. This controller is also frequently used to provide safety-relevant ...

This short project investigates using a power switch tail with the Arduino. The power switch tail allows a user to turn outlet run devices on and off with the Arduino. Therefore using this project as ...

The QST30 power module was among the Cummins products on display at Railway Interchange 2025, held May 20-22 in Indianapolis. The power module upgrades switcher locomotives to Tier 4 compliance, ...

GM has filed a patent application for a vehicle window switch design, potentially consolidating multiple window functions into just a single switch panel.

Power modules are high-power switching circuits that convert DC- in AC-currents in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and many more applications. New materials [14] and device technologies [14], ...
