Semikron Danfoss News
Another PCIM Europe in the books, this time completely digital. SEMIKRON followed suit with online presentations and webinars to showcase the latest product updates. Semikron presented the eMPack as a solution for Automotive traction applications with two presentations in the eMoblity Forum by Oliver Tamm and Ingo Rabl. Also, Stefan Häuser, Bernhard Eichler, and Emiliano Meza held two live webinars about the solutions for the smart grid and the high-power modules in the field of renewables...
Designing a reliable wind converter is an increasingly difficult task with the ever-growing power requirements. The highly reliable, sintered SKiiP 4 has had a power boost. This highly integrated package provides a further 25% increase in power. SKiiP SKiiP is a proven platform with millions of units in the field, allowing for continuous improvement in reliability and performance. Design effort is reduced through an integrated package including a power module, driver, current sensors & coo...
With Solar + Storage becoming a growing trend, energy storage converters must consider the requirements of solar. For AC-coupled systems, a bidirectional AC/DC converter is required. SEMIKRON offers a portfolio of power modules with topologies, which increase efficiency while both charging and discharging the batteries. DC-Coupled systems SEMIKRON will also discuss DC/DC topologies for DC-coupled systems, which can pair with 3-Level solar inverters. In order to meet 1500VDC designs, SEMIKRON...
Forklifts and industrial vehicles require reliable, compact power inverters. For the low voltage range (24V-144V), the SKAI 3 LV is the solution. Rather than starting from scratch or using an inflexible inverter design, SEMIKRON offers a new solution with the SKAI 3 LV. Users can now focus on the IP that matters most without getting stuck in the power hardware and packaging details. Proven manufacturing expertise Once the design is ready, this new approach then offers mass production through...
Meeting the demands of higher efficiency or more compact design with increased power density, while ensuring short time-to-market and meeting cost targets are but a few of the challenges facing power electronic developers. They have to select the right components in a market with huge product diversity. This is where SemiSel comes in, an efficient selection tool that will help product developers make the right decisions. SemiSel remains the most comprehensive free tool of its kind and can be u...
After two long years PCIM Europe is back as a live event and will be opening its doors from 10 to 12 May 2022, bringing the world of power electronics to Nuremberg. What to do when someone wants to attend but can’t be there in person? That’s not a problem! For the first time, PCIM Europe will be running as a hybrid event, meaning parallel to the on-site event, the conference papers and the forum presentations from the Exhibitor, Industry, and E-mobility Forum will be available on de...
SEMIKRON and Danfoss Silicon Power are joining forces to establish the ultimate partner in power electronics. On August 22, less than five months after it was first announced, the new leader in power semiconductor modules started doing business as Semikron Danfoss. With an existing workforce of more than 3,500 dedicated power electronic specialists, Semikron Danfoss will provide world-class technology expertise to its loyal customer base. The merger comes with a strong growth plan and a firm co...
Mika Kulju, who until recently was the President of ABB Drive Products division, has been announced as the new President of Danfoss Drives, succeeding Vesa Laisi who will retire from Danfoss after eight years as the President of Danfoss Drives. Vesa Laisi became part of Danfoss’ Executive Team in December 2014 when the global AC drives manufacturer Vacon became part of the Danfoss Group. Today, Danfoss Drives is a pioneer in electrification and variable speed controls of electric motors....
