"Meeting PFC requirements, the sub1W initiative and other green regulations are of paramount concern for today's applications designers", said Alfred Hesener, Director of Marketing.
"Today's applications require increased efficiency even as their product features multiply and the product itself shrinks in size".
"Fairchild Semiconductor understands these conflicting challenges and develops products that integrate functionality and utilise proprietary packaging technologies to improve efficiency and thermal characteristics while saving board space and reducing component count".
"As The PowerFranchise, Fairchild offers in-house expertise for applying these advanced technologies in innovative ways to enhance performance in specific applications".
Fairchild's presentations at PCIM Europe will include: "Evaluation of nonpunch-through IGBT technologies for soft- and hard-switching applications", by Sampat Shekawat; "Caveat for operating power MOSFETs in nonswitching operations", by Alain Laprade and Alex Craig; "Practical hands-on lab experience in addressing shoot-through in synchronous buck regulators", by Art Black, Jon Gladish and Young Sub Jeong; "Advanced physics-based modelling of power MOSFET devices", by Chris Kocon, Jon Gladish and Ashok Challa; and "A peek at the future; extreme power density for core convertors", By Alan Elbanhawy.
Fairchild will also participate in podium discussions on system integration on the module level, held on Wednesday, 31st May at 1500 local time, and will deliver a vendor presentation on 1st June from 0940 to 1000 titled "Innovative analogue control ICs for lighting and power supply applications".
