Fairchild focusing on SiC at electronica Europe

Fairchild Semiconductor of San Jose CA, USA, which makes silicon chips for power and mobile designs, is exhibiting its latest in silicon carbide (SiC) technology as well as over 15 power and mobile solutions in hall A-4, booth 506 at the electronica Europe 2012 show in the New Munich Trade Fair Centre, Germany (13–16 November). The firm acquired SiC power transistor maker TranSiC AB of Kista, Sweden in April 2011.

Fairchild is demonstrating its SiC bipolar junction transistor (BJT) technology, which enables higher efficiency and higher power density for applications such as solar inverters, welding systems, and mobile power.

At electronica Europe, Fairchild is also conducting demonstrations in application areas such as LED lighting, automotive, power supplies, smart meters, motion control and DC-DC conversion, as well as solutions for portable applications, including portable power management and interface.
