Application Design Center

This center groups our engineering articles by application. Each section explains the key electrical challenges of the application and points to the articles that cover the relevant devices and selection criteria.

SMPS & Power Supplies

Switching supplies demand careful attention to rectification, switching loss and EMI. Start with the complete SMPS guide, then review SMPS components, rectifier selection for SMPS, MOSFET selection and EMI filter design. For isolated topologies, see isolated power supplies.

Solar & Renewable Energy

Solar systems stress diodes, MOSFETs and SiC devices under harsh conditions. Read PV bypass diodes, module and string protection, PV inverter semiconductors, the solar inverter component selection guide and the photovoltaic diode engineering guide. Also see 1200V SiC for solar inverters and Schottky bypass modules.

EV Charging & High-Power

High-voltage charging demands wide-bandgap efficiency and rugged packaging: 1200V SiC MOSFETs for 800V chargers and wide-bandgap sourcing.

Automotive Electronics

Automotive designs add AEC-Q101, load-dump and mission-profile requirements. See automotive MOSFET design-in, automotive rectifier diodes, TVS for load dump, automotive ESD suppressors, automotive Schottky and automotive lighting.

Motor Drives & Industrial Power

Industrial converters rely on IGBTs and rugged rectification: 1200V IGBTs for motor drives, 650V IGBTs for induction heating and industrial applications of power semiconductors.

Gate Drive & Signal-Level

Driving modern switches correctly is half the design: isolated gate drivers, GaN half-bridge drive timing and high-speed drivers.
