MAN Energy Solutions will supply 16 × MAN 18V51/60 dual-fuel engines with a total generating capacity of 311 MW to three new power plants currently under construction in the Republic of Ireland; two are situated near the capital, Dublin, with the third in the midlands town of Athlone. All three are intended as back-up facilities and designed to compensate for possible fluctuations in the power grid that may arise as a result of the increasing integration of renewable energies.

MIT scientists and their colleagues have created a simple superconducting device that could transfer current through electronic devices much more efficiently than is possible today.

A new series of industrial power supplies available from HY-LINE Power Components can deliver up to 4 kW from a three-phase supply. This industrial-grade power supply is ideal for use in a wide range of applications, including test and measurement equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, additive manufacturing, printers, laser cutting and RF power amplifiers.

A wider audience – greater knowledge – even more networking: From 9 – 11 May 2023, the PCIM Europe once again gathered the experts of power electronics in Nuremberg, further pushed its meaning as an important exchange platform and thus once again confirmed its relevance for the industry.

As 14 % of the world’s 2010 greenhouse gas emissions came from cars, trucks and other vehicles, plans exist to reach 125 m electric vehicles by 2030. However, by 2018, the total was only 5.1 m. Accordingly, developing an economically-viable fast-charging infrastructure has become of interest, to accelerate the changeover to EVs.

TSMC has showcased the newest innovations in its advanced logic, specialty, and 3D IC technologies at the Company’s 2022 North America Technology Symposium, with the next-generation leading-edge N2 process powered by nanosheet transistors and the unique FINFLEX technology for the N3 and N3E processes making their debut.

Whether manufacturing defects or overuse, a transistor may incur failures during its life cycle. Transistors do not come with expiration dates, but transistor faults are not a new concept in the semiconductor industry. Here is a guide to understanding transistor failures, the reason behind the faults, and possible solutions.

Factory shutdowns are bad enough for the auto industry, but they could end up being even worse for electric vehicle industry.

Researchers in the U.S., in conjunction with the Toyota Research Institute of North America, have reported a ‘breakthrough’ in the development of magnesium batteries, a potential solution for realizing grid-scale energy storage systems.

Murata has announced the introduction of the DLW32PH122XK2 wire wound chip common mode choke coil. AEC-Q200-qualified, this 1210 inch size (3.2×2.5mm) component is targeted at suppressing wideband common mode noise in modern automotive designs.
