A tiny power module might ease the world’s energy crunch

Global electricity demand is rising faster than new large power plants can be built, and the cost of that imbalance is showing up in household bills and grid instability. Instead of relying only on ...
The world’s energy demand is rising, and NREL’s ULIS power module could help meet it. Demand for energy worldwide is climbing rapidly, driven in part by power hungry data centers that support ...
Silicon carbide (SiC) continues to carve out a place for itself in power electronics after decades of dominance by silicon. SiC-based power switches are becoming the gold standard in the three-phase ...
Developing a power module requires enhanced design and verification methods. Currently, multiple iterations are needed to get the design done. Today, design and manufacturing processes are heavily ...
The stacked DBC packaging method utilizes mutual inductance cancellation effects to significantly reduce parasitic inductance. With the current path increased by 1-fold, SiC power modules allow for ...
Power modules are high-power switching circuits that convert DC- in AC-currents in electric vehicles, renewable energy, and many more applications. New materials [14] and device technologies [14], ...
