PCIM 2025 Seminar 2

HIGH POWER AND VERY HIGH-DENSITY TECHNOLOGIES FOR ARTIFICIAL INTELIGENCE AND MODERN AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS

Schedule: May 5, 2025 1:30 PM – 5:00 PM (GMT+1)

Place: Arvena Park Hotel, Nürnberg

This seminar will explore these novel solutions, beginning with AC-DC front-end PFC converters. Achieving efficiency levels of 99%, a benchmark once considered aspirational, has now become an industry imperative. This ambitious goal can be realized through the meticulous selection of topologies, coupled with the integration of advanced magnetic structures.

The availability of ultra-low-impedance semiconductor devices, alongside the ongoing evolution of SiC and GaN technologies, has enabled significant strides in pushing efficiency limits toward the 99% threshold. However, reaching this milestone remains a formidable challenge, necessitating a comprehensive reassessment of the most suitable topologies for high-efficiency power conversion. The key lies in identifying configurations that not only maximize efficiency but also leverage existing components to their fullest potential. Central to this endeavor is the implementation of true soft switching, encompassing zero-voltage switching on the primary side and zero-current switching on the secondary side, while also minimizing RMS currents through switching devices, magnetics, and capacitors.

PCIM 2025 Seminar 1

MAGNETICS FOR HIGH POWER AND VERY HIGH-DENSITY IN ARTIFICIAL INTELIGENCE AND MODERN AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS

Schedule: May 5, 2025 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM (GMT+1)

Place: Arvena Park Hotel, Nürnberg

The digital landscape is currently experiencing a remarkable transformation, and in this context, cutting-edge semiconductors, such as Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Silicon Carbide (SiC), are emerging, though they represent just one facet of this outstanding development.
While advancements in semiconductor technology have made significant strides, the quest for heightened efficiency has now shifted toward magnetics.
In the last 20 years progress in magnetic technology has been limited, though novel magnetic solutions were developed and used in some recent applications. The seminar will focus on the latest magnetic technologies capable of pushing efficiency to a very high level. A study of the loss mechanism in magnetics and ways to improve it, together with novel magnetic structures will be presented.
The seminar will describe in detail all the parasitic elements in magnetics, the loss mechanism associated with it and solutions to addressing them.
