Mitsubishi Electric announced that it will double a previously announced investment plan to approximately 260 billion yen in the five-year period to March 2026 mainly for constructing a new wafer plant to increase production of silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors. Under the plan, Mitsubishi Electric expects to respond to rapidly increasing demand for SiC power semiconductors for…
Mitsubishi Electric to Launch “SLIMDIP-Z” Power Semiconductor Module Mitsubishi Electric announced that its new SLIMDIP-Z power semiconductor module, featuring an extra-high 30A rated current for use in inverter systems of home appliances, will be released in February 2023. The compact module will enable the SLIMDIPTM series to meet a wider range of power and size needs for…
Power devices are a key component in power electronics products for contributing to the realization of a low-carbon society. Attracting attention as the material for the most energy-efficient power device is silicon-carbide (SiC). The material characteristics of SiC have led to a dramatic reduction in power loss and significant energy savings for power electronics devices.…
Mitsubishi Electric announced that its new SLIMDIP-X power semiconductor module, which achieves low thermal resistance and noise for use in home-appliance inverter systems, is released. This new module in the SLIMDIPTM series is expected to help simplify and reduce the size of inverter systems used in products such as air conditioners, washing machines and refrigerators. Product…
The Mitsubishi LV100-type T-series 2.0kV IGBT Module will reduce size and power consumption of DC1500V converters including renewable-energy types. Mitsubishi Electric Corporation announced that it will begin shipping samples of its LV100-type T-series 2.0kV insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) Module for industrial use this May. The new power-semiconductor product is expected to downsize and reduce the…
