Gallium Nitride — Gate Drive Solutions For CoolGaN 600V HEMTs
By Infineon - 08 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

This paper explains the gate drive requirements for Infineon’s CoolGaN 600 V e-mode HEMTs. Various driving solutions are discussed, ranging from the standard RC-coupled driver to a new differential drive concept utilizing dedicated gate driver ICs. In half-bridge topologies, a hybrid configuration combining isolated and non-isolated drivers could be an exciting alternative. Practical applicat... » read more

Will Automotive Ethernet Win?
By Bryon Moyer - 02 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 2

As internal combustion engines are replaced by electric motors, and mechanical linkages increasingly replaced by electronic messaging, an in-vehicle network is needed to facilitate communication. Ethernet, amended for automotive and other time-sensitive applications, appears to be the network of choice. But is that choice a done deal? And will Ethernet replace all other in-car networks? The ... » read more

Why TinyML Is Such A Big Deal
By Bryon Moyer - 02 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 1

While machine-learning (ML) development activity most visibly focuses on high-power solutions in the cloud or medium-powered solutions at the edge, there is another collection of activity aimed at implementing machine learning on severely resource-constrained systems. Known as TinyML, it’s both a concept and an organization — and it has acquired significant momentum over the last year or... » read more

Next-Level Power Density In Solar And Energy Storage With Silicon Carbide MOSFETs
By Infineon - 01 Sep, 2021 - Comments: 0

Latest generation silicon carbide semiconductors enable a significant increase in power conversion efficiency in solar power generation systems and associated energy storage. This white paper describes the applications and outlines how lower loss not only saves energy, but also results in smaller and lighter equipment with lower capital, installation and maintenance costs.

Automotive Infineon announced a new MEMS scanner chipset for automotive heads-up displays (HUD) and AR (augmented reality) eyeglasses. The design has MEMS mirror — which tilts and can work with laser beam scanner (LBS) projectors — and MEMS driver. The size and energy use is small and yet it projects content over a wider area of the windshield. A partnership between Ansys and IPG Automo... » read more

Lowering Energy Per Bit
By Ann Mutschler - 12 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

Energy is emerging as a focal point in chip and system design, but solving energy-related issues needs to be dealt with on a much broader scale than design teams typically see. Energy is the amount of power consumed over a period of time to perform a given task, but reducing energy is a lot different than reducing power. It affects everything from operational costs and system performance to ... » read more

Radar Wave Propagation Through Materials
By Infineon - 11 Aug, 2021 - Comments: 0

This white paper focuses on electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation through materials. For radar systems, this is of interest when radar must pass through walls, or when designing radomes (cover casings for the radar system). In the process of designing a radome, you should always perform full EM simulation. However, the content of this white paper will help you to first estimate whether a radome... » read more
