At the Applied Power Electronics Conference (APEC), Infineon Technologies will highlight its benchmark power management solutions that enable customers to cost effectively increase efficiency, power density and system performance. APEC 2017 takes place at the Tampa Convention Center, Tampa, Florida, March, 26-30, 2017.
In its exhibit (Booth 901), Infineon’s technical team will demonstrate new energy-efficient lighting and power adapter technologies, high density dc-dc power solutions for high performance servers, high-end gaming power supplies and wireless chargers. Integrated design platforms for motor control and high power industrial solutions tailored to applications including wind and solar energy, construction, commercial and agricultural vehicles also will be featured. In addition to digital power innovations, the latest SiC and GaN technologies will be showcased.
Additionally, Infineon’s experts will participate in the following industry and technical sessions and poster and exhibitor presentations:
