New Products
RC-E discrete IGBTs from Infineon
allow for drop-in replacement with benchmark for price / performance Induction cooking appliances commonly make use of resonant topologies which allow bi-directional current flow . Additionally , they demand a discrete IGBT that performs best at switching frequencies from 18 to 40 kHz and has low losses . Infineon Technologies AG launches a new family of discrete IGBTs to address these needs . The new RC- E devices are cost optimized and specifically meet the demands of low- to mid-price range induction cookers and induction rice cookers . The RC-E delivers the well-established high-performance of its predecessors with a more attractive price for lower BoM cost . The RC-E is offered in a standard TO-247 package allowing a drop-in replacement for existing designs . Samples are available now and the devices are in production . The family will be launched with two devices : 15 A and 25 A , both with the most commonly used blocking voltage of 1200 V . Visit : www . infineon . com / rc-e .
STMicroelectronics Boosts Access to High-Performance Embedded Design
STMicroelectronics has introduced new STM32F7 microcontroller lines and added accessories and options to the development ecosystem , easing access to highperformance embedded design based on the ARM Cortex-M7 core . The latest STM32F722 and STM32F723 microcontrollers in the very high-performance STM32F7 series reduce memory footprint by integrating value-added features including code-execution protection and high-speed USB physical-layer ( PHY ) circuitry that streamline development of connected applications . The STM32F732 and STM32F733 variants come with extra cryptographic features on-chip , such as an efficient AES256 HW engine . There are versatile package options from a 64-pin LQFP up to 176-pin LQFP or UFBGA for projects demanding high I / O count , and 256KB or 512KB of on-chip Flash memory with 256KB RAM .
