Toshiba’s tiny photorelays are rated to 135 °C for high-temperature test equipment


Toshiba has launched four voltage-driven photorelays in a small S-VSON4T package that are rated for operation up to 135 °C, targeting test and burn-in gear that has to run hot to evaluate automotive-grade semiconductors. The new parts are the TLP3407SRB, TLP3412SRB, TLP3412SRHB and TLP3412SRLB, and Toshiba says volume shipments have started. As electrification and automated… Read more…

EMI filters and noise mitigation techniques for power electronics


Pretty much every product, device or subsystem involved in power conversion, both on- and off-board anw EV, will have to comply with both safety and ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations. And while most power electronics engineers find the safety regulations to be relatively straightforward, I’d wager that few feel the same about the EMC ones. EMC… Read more…

Webinar: New strategies for high voltage fault management in next-gen EVs
