Power Modules with Additional Low Inductive Current Path

May 6th 2011 – Parasitic inductances are a major problem with power modules, in particular in fast switching applications. The parasitic inductance of the component interconnections causes an overvoltage condition and increases the switch-off losses in the semiconductor. Many initiatives have been investigated to reduce the parasitic inductance in power modules utilizing a complex mechanical construction of overlapping internal bus bars forming the DC path. 

The first results of the new idea to separate the current paths into a static low resistive screw contact and in a transient low inductive PCB-based connection are promising. The limit for … Read More → "Power Modules with Additional Low Inductive Current Path"

New Transistors for 22 Nanometer Chips Have an Unprecedented Combination of Power Savings and Performance Gains

SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 4, 2011 – Intel Corporation today announced a significant breakthrough in the evolution of the transistor, the microscopic building block of modern electronics. For the first time since the invention of silicon transistors over 50 years ago, transistors using a three-dimensional structure will be put into high-volume manufacturing. Intel will introduce a revolutionary 3-D transistor design called Tri-Gate, first disclosed by Intel in 2002, into high-volume manufacturing at the 22-nanometer (nm) node in an Intel chip codenamed “Ivy Bridge.” A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter. 

The three-dimensional Tri-Gate transistors represent a … Read More → "New Transistors for 22 Nanometer Chips Have an Unprecedented Combination of Power Savings and Performance Gains"
