US built-in circuit producer Microchip Know-how has introduced its new complete three-phase hybrid energy drive module, which is the primary of 12 variants within the firm’s product line with both silicon carbide metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors or insulated-gate bipolar transistors.  

Microchip says its new module helps meet the wants of electrical plane designers who wish to convert flight management programs from hydraulic to electrical to scale back weight and design complexities.

The modules, with fewer elements for simplified system design, supply compactness and a low weight and profile. The voltages vary from 650 V to 1,200 V and are customizable to 1,700 V. The modules can be found with non-compulsory add-ons that embody comfortable begin, solenoid interface drive, regenerative brake swap, and thermal sensors for exterior monitoring circuitry utilization.
