New generation of power solutions on show at APEC

February 22, 2010
APEC 2010

From February 22-24, APEC 2010 will be the must-attend show for power electronics engineers! NXP will be there, showcasing its latest generation GreenChip, solid state lighting (SSL) and power MOSFET solutions.

We will be showing our new GreenChip TEA1713 resonant half-bridge converter, launched on February 17th. This device is the industry's first resonant controller with integrated Power factor Correction (PFC), capacitive mode protection and adaptive deadtime control. It enables designers to build highly efficient (+90%), highly reliable resonant power supplies for LCD TVs, Plasma TV, PCs and slim line adapters.

The resonant half-bridge converter offers a unique combination of integrated features, including:

  • Capacitive mode protection
  • Adaptive dead-time control
  • High frequency protection (time out)
  • Over-current regulation with AC sensing
  • Two-level over-current protection with boost voltage compensation
  • Burst mode standby
  • Two-speed soft-start mechanism

We have also recently extended our range of Trench 6 MOSFETs with new devices at 60 V and 100 V in Power SO-8 (LFPAK) and these products will be on show at APEC. By combining Trench 6 silicon with the high performance LFPAK package, our new MOSFETs provide customers with numerous performance and reliability advantages.

  • 3.6 mΩ (typical) 60 V in a Power-SO8 footprint (PSMN5R5-60YS)
  • 10.0 mΩ (typical) 100 V in a Power-SO8 footprint (PSMN012-100YS)
  • World's first <1 mΩ 25 V MOSFET in a Power-SO8 footprint for switching applications
  • The only Power-SO8 devices rated to 175 °C
  • The only Power-SO8 package automotive rated to AEC - Q101
  • The LFPAK is rated for ID(MAX) up to 100 A
  • Fully compatible with visual inspection machines (unlike many Power-SO8 alternatives which require X-ray inspection)
  • Avalanche rated
  • ROHS compliant and halogen-free

The lighting industry is going through some major changes driven largely by concerns over climate change and the desire to use our energy resources more efficiently. Both governments and consumers are looking towards more efficient lighting options such as compact-fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and solid-state-lighting (SSL).

During current 'Experience the Lighting Revolution campaign' NXP announced a range of LED drivers SSL2101 / SSL2102 that matched the long lifetime of LEDs. This makes the NXP solution the perfect electronics solution when used in LED based light sources. At APEC we will show our latest solutions for dimmable LED driving, for example the SSL2101/SSL2102.
