Today’s home appliances are increasingly connected for remote monitoring and control and smarter due, in part, to numerous sensors. The sensors help even lower end appliances implement their basic functions and, more importantly, enable smarter, top end appliances. While sensors provide these capabilities for several home appliances, this two-part series will describe sensing functions for […]

Gate-drive eval platform accelerates SiC-based power converter design cycle
The Gate Drive Evaluation Platform (GDEV) helps designers evaluate SiC MOSFETs, SiC Schottky diodes, and other peripheral components like gate driver circuitry, so they can better understand how silicon carbide technologies will behave in converter applications under continuous operating conditions. The GDEV offers quick-connect header-pin terminals that allow for rapid and consistent comparison of different […]
