Texas Instruments (TI) has captured the attention of the power semiconductor industry by continuously introducing solutions that improve power efficiency and utilize cutting-edge semiconductor technology.

TI is showcasing innovative power management technologies applicable to a wide range of fields including sustainable energy, automotive, USB Power Delivery (PD), robotics and motor control at the Power Conversion and Intelligent Motion (PCIM) Expo and Conference in Nuremberg, Germany, May 6-8.

At this event, TI attracted industry attention by showcasing next-generation charging solutions and technologies to increase power efficiency.

One of the key technologies TI announced is the UCC25661-Q1, the industry’s first automotive-qualified inductor-inductor-capacitor (LLC) controller for lightweight electric vehicle charging.

Featuring TI's patented Input Power Proportional Control (IPPC) technology, this controller helps design highly reliable power supplies while doubling power density.

TI also introduced the UCG28826, a 65W dual-port USB PD charger based on a self-biasing GaN (gallium nitride) flyback.

This charger is for fast charging appliIt sets a new standard for applications, enabling increased power density and minimizing standby power consumption.

Additionally, TI, in collaboration with electronics manufacturer Flex, demonstrated a reference design for short-circuit detection in automotive onboard chargers and DC/DC converters.

Through this, a method to increase the reliability and secure safety of SiC MOSFETs (silicon carbide transistors) was introduced.

TI plans to showcase its next-generation power management technology at this exhibition and lead innovation in the sustainable energy and automotive industries.
