Rutronik is aiming at 3-phase industrial control cabinets with a DIN-rail mount mains filter series from Schurter. “The housing, with a width of just 44mm, requires extremely little space on the mounting rail,” said distributor Rutronik. “The single-stage filter is available as a standard version or with high attenuation. FPAC RAIL impresses above all with its leakage current of just ...
US car maker Rivian has signed up Infineon to supply traction inverter power modules, microcontrollers and power ICs for its ‘R2’ vehicle platform, expecting to start in 2026. The power modules will be in Infineon’s HybridPack Drive G2 format (pictured) and include both silicon and silicon carbide components. Along with these, Rivian has picked infineon’s established TC3x MCUs, not not ...
Allegro MicroSystems today announced three ICs: two analogue current sensors and a motor driver for fans. The first current sensor, ACS37630, is designed to be sat on top of a bus bar and partly surrounded by a U-core magnetic field concentrator. “Its vertical Hall technology enables sensing parallel to the package surface, ideal for system integration with U-core magnets,” according ...
Following its acquisition or Leco, Recom has launched a series of DIN rail power supplies for three-phase and dc input busses. Two-phase ac operation is also possible. Called the RACPRO1 range, it includes five parts: 240W (24Vout), 480W (24 or 48Vout) or 960W (24 or 48Vout), which are 43mm, 52mm or 80mm wide respectively. Update: The company introduced matching electronic ...
EPC has introduced an evaluation board implementing a 40Arms (60A peak) three-phase inverter that will run from 30V to 130V. Called EPC91200, it is “suitable for 80 and 110V battery systems commonly used in industrial automation, agricultural machinery and material handling equipment like forklifts,” according to the company. The inverter is designed around EPC’s 150V 3mΩ EPC2305 GaN HEMT, a ...
Ditronix has announced a multi-phase power and energy monitoring board in the form of a ‘Hat’ for Raspberry Pis. Called ‘IPEM PiHat’, it is based on Microchip’s M90E36A monitoring and power computation IC. “The board may be used as a stand-alone controller-monitor, or integrated within an IoT in-house or IoT cloud MQTT monitoring platform,” according to the company. “Safety is ...
Infineon is aiming to drive motors up to 4kW with a series of integrated three-phase IGBT motor drivers. There are three: IM12B10CC1 800V 10A 2.2kW IM12B15CC1 800V 15A 3kW IM12B20EC1 800V 20A 4kW Each comes in the same 36 x 23mm DIP package and includes six 1,200V IGBTs, six anti-parallel diodes, and a protected level-shifting gate driver compatible with logic-level ...
Emis has created a range of three phase, dual stage EMC filters designed for industrial motor and drive systems across 5 to 170kW. TMF3221 and TMF3222 “are housed in a space-saving slim book-shelf enclosure which may be installed next to inverters, converters or motor drives”, according to the company. “The devices are designed to meet the needs of power drive ...
Cosel has introduced a 3.5kW ac-dc 1U rack-mount power supply that will run from three phases between 180 to 528Vac. Two versions are available giving a choice of 48 or 65Vdc output, each trimmable +15% to -50% (24 to 55.2V, or 32.5 to 74.75V). Called HFA3500TF, the enclosed PSUs have three-wire inputs and will run from delta or star power networks. ...
Toshiba is aiming at pumps, air conditioning and fans with through-hole versions of its latest 600V three-phase brushless dc motor drivers. TPD4163K and TPD4164K come in a 32.8 x 13.5 x 3.525mm ‘HDIP30′ package, which has pins on a 1.778mm pitch (Electronics Weekly has asked why this odd pitch was chosen – watch this space). “This new package reduces PCB ...
