Driver drives LED efficiency
STMicroelectronics has introduced a new white LED driver with specific features for small LCD module backlight and high efficiency white LED power supply for portable applications.
At that time, the business introduced some of the first silicon-based power semiconductor components in the world.
Since then Dynex has acquired power semiconductor interests, technologies and products from such major names such as GEC, SGS-Thomson, Alstom and Marconi Electronic Devices (MEDL).
Today the headquarters for Dynex Semiconductor, together with manufacturing, silicon fabrication, sales, marketing, design and research and development, are colocated in Lincoln, UK.
This well equipped modern facility, includes in excess of 4000m2 of recently refurbished clean rooms dedicated to the manufacture of power semiconductor products synonymous with innovation, quality and reliability.
Dynex offers a range of IGBT module and die products.
The module family includes products with voltage ratings from 600 to 3300V and current ratings from 50 to 3600A in industry standard packages.
Switch configurations include bidirectional switch, single, dual, chopper and half bridge options.
Dynex also manufactures a comprehensive range of phase control thyristors (SCR), rectifier diodes, asymmetric and fast turn-off thyristors, gate turn-off thyristors (GTO), pulse power thyristors and fast recovery diodes.
Voltages range from 1200V for direct connection to 415V supplies to 6500V for high voltage applications.
Average current ratings range from a few hundred amps to 11kA.
