ESMC breaks ground on Dresden fab
ESMC – a jv between TSMC, Bosch, Infineon and NXP – broke ground for its first fab in Dresden yesterday, with the EU announcing it had approved a €5 billion subsidy from the German government for the €10 billion project. ”Together with our partners, Bosch, Infineon and NXP, we are building our Dresden facility to meet the semiconductor needs of ...
Updated: 600V and 700V GaN transistors co-packaged with drivers
Infineon Technologies is to integrate 600 and 700V GaN power hemts alongside gate driver chips inside single packages, in 5 x 6mm or 6 x 8mm SMD packages. IGI70NxxxA2xS is to be a 700V range that combines a single GaN transistor with a single-channel driver in 5 x 6mm PQFN with with 140 to 500mΩ options (IGI70NxxxA2PS), or 6 x ...

The Synergy of Infineon’s Power CoolMOS, CoolGaN, and CoolSiC Series with YMIN Capacitors’ Technology! In June 2024, Infineon recently launched a series of new products, including the 600 V CoolMOS™ 8 SJ MOSFET, CoolGaN™ bidirectional switch and CoolGaN Smart Sense, and CoolSiC™ MOSFET 650 V G2. These products aim to enhance the performance and cost-effectiveness of power systems, making them ...
PCIM: 650V SiC mosfets in 8x8mm TOLL and top-side cooled packaging
Infineon is putting 650V silicon carbide mosfet die into two packages with SO-type footprints: a thin (1.5mm) bottom-cooled 8 x 8mm leadless TO (TOLL – TO leadless), and 9.8 x 15 x 2.3mm 16 leg SO version with top-side cooling (‘TOLT’ package) (see photo). Die with typical on-resistances of 20, 40, 50 or 60mΩ are available in either package, and ...

Small top-side cooled automotive mosfets keep heat out of the PCB
Infineon is aiming at automotive power control with a 5 x 7mm top-side cooled surface-mount package, pitching it against the 5 x 6mm bottom-cooled SSO8. The package, SSO10T, has a 10μm gap instead of a thermal pad on the PCB side, and around 95% of heat will leave through the top, according to the company, typically to the ECU housing ...
Infineon hooks up with Honda
Infineon and Honda have signed an MoU to collaborate in power semiconductors, ADAS, and E/E architectures, where both parties will collaborate on new architecture concepts. Infineon will become Honda’s semiconductor partner to align future product and technology roadmaps. The two companies also agreed to continue discussions on supply stability, as well as to encourage transferring mutual knowledge and collaborate on ...
Infineon and GloFo ink eNVM supply deal
Infineon and GlobalFoundries have agreed a supply deal for Infineon’s AURIX TC3x 40nm automotive MCUs, PMICs and connectivity ICs. The additional capacity will help secure Infineon’s business growth from 2024 through 2030. Infineon and GF have been partnering since 2013 in the development of differentiated automotive, industrial and security semiconductor technology and products. At the centre of this collaboration ...
Two-channel magnetic radiometric gradiometer for precision measurement
Infineon has introduced a magnetic sensor for micron-level movement measurement. Called TLI5590-A6W, it has two TMR (tunnel magneto-resistance) Wheatstone bridges inside (see diagram), spaced 500μm apart so that they deliver sine and cosine voltages when moved relative to long magnets, or circular magnets, whose poles change every 500μm in the working direction. “Qualified for industrial and consumer applications to JEDEC ...
