Power Solutions for Improving Renewable Energy Utilization



ROHM has recently launched a variety of power solutions, including SiC, IGBT, and gate drivers designed to improve power conversion efficiency. These products are capable of meeting the severe demands of India's rapidly growing power infrastructure.

Ultra-Compact Low Profile 2-Color Chip LEDs *Industry-small form factor contributes to thinner, more vibrant displays in industrial and consumer devices*



We have recently announced the availability of the industry's smallest class (1608 size) of 2-color chip LEDs. In addition to their breakthrough size, the SML-D22MUW features a special design that improves reliability along with a backside electrode configuration that supports high-resolution displays.

1700V SiC MOSFETs: Combine with an AC/DC converter control IC to boost efficiency

DC/DC converters: Selecting the best capacitors and inductors for switching power supplies

ROHM has been putting considerable resources into the development of power devices. With the SCT2H12NZ 1700V SiC MOSFET, ROHM has added to its market-proven high voltage lineup, which already includes 650V and 1200V models.

There are more than a few people who are not comfortable dealing with magnetic components. However, switching power supplies have become indispensable, and cannot be avoided. Therefore, we would like to answer some questions to deepen the reader’s understanding of inductors.

Having trouble with thermal issues? (Shunt Resistors)

Please refer to our broad lineup off High Power and Ultra-Low-Ohmic shunt resistors for current detection in high power circuits. For example, the GMR and LTR series is offered in a broad lineup of resistances and rated power (0.5 to 5W).
