On The Shelf Power Integrations Unveils New SCALE-iFlex LT NTC IGBT/
SiC Module Gate Drivers with Temperature Readout SCALE-2 technology improves current sharing by 20 percent for the popular new dual style of 100 mm x 140 mm IGBT and SiC power modules
NECTO Studio 6.0 enables developers to bring circuits to life
MIKROE adds increased graphical functionality, Clang support for ARM and RISC-V and many other features
Power Integrations (NASDAQ: POWI), the leader in gate-driver technology for medium- and high-voltage inverter applications, today introduced the SCALE-iFlex™ LT NTC family of IGBT/SiC module gate drivers. The new gate drivers target the popular new dual, 100 mm x 140 mm style of IGBT modules, such as the Mitsubishi LV100 and the Infineon XHP 2, as well as silicon carbide (SiC) variants thereof up to 2300 V blocking voltage. The SCALE-iFlex LT NTC drivers provide Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) data – an isolated temperature measurement of the power module – which enables accurate thermal management of converter systems. This is particularly important for systems with multiple modules arrayed in parallel, ensuring proper current sharing and dramatically enhancing overall system reliability. Thorsten Schmidt, product marketing manager at Power Integrations commented: “Designers of renewable energy and rail systems using SCALE- iFlex drivers already benefit from increased system performance; the SCALE-iFlex approach handles paralleling so expertly that one module in five can be eliminated without loss of performance or current de-rating. Adding an isolated NTC output reduces hardware complexity – particularly cables and connectors – and contributes to system observability and overall performance.” Based on Power Integrations’ proven SCALE™-2 technology, SCALE-iFlex LT gate drivers improve current sharing accuracy and therefore increase the current carrying capability of multiple-paralleled modules by 20 percent, allowing users to significantly increase the semiconductor utilization of their converter stacks.

One-piece 2nd generation GDBC connectors from Gigalane for complex stack ups in 5G systems now available from Powell Electronics
MikroElektronika (MIKROE), the embedded solutions company that dramatically cuts development time by providing innovative hardware and software products based on proven standards, has unveiled v6.0 of NECTO Studio, the company’s complete, cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE) for embedded applications. The latest version has six new major features including: an enhanced graphics library with a brand new UI designer; CLANG & LLVM toolchains for ARM and RISC-V microcontrollers; CAN support; integrated DMA control; and RTC and LCD available in the mikroSDK.
Comments Nebojsa Matic, CEO of MIKROE: “The latest update to NECTO Studio IDE significantly improves the development experience. Inclusion of LVGL enhances the graphical aspects of projects. Clang for ARM and RISC-V compilers integration, along with LLDB for ARM and RISC-V debuggers, provides powerful tools for code compilation and debugging. The IDE now boasts advanced debugging features, such as call stack support for GCC and Clang compilers, a detailed core registers view, and a comprehensive library collection for CAN, DMA, RTC, and LCD within the mikroSDK framework, streamlining the development process.”
The LVGL enhanced graphics library with new UI designer enables users to bring circuits to life with a blend of algorithmic precision and graphical creativity. Featuring intuitive drag-and-drop functionality, this IDE update enables developers to craft visually appealing and user-friendly interfaces. The ability to group and save custom controls enhances workflow efficiency and project consistency. Multi-screen design support facilitates the creation of complex, versatile applications that seamlessly adapt to various devices.

Precision and versatility in one cordless drill & driver for professional use
Panasonic presents the new EY1DD2 cordless drill & driver for a wide range of applications
With the EY1DD2, Panasonic Power Tools Europe introduces a versatile cordless drill & driver for demanding operations.
The short body measures only 133mm and with a 5.0Ah battery pack weighs just 1.75kg. But the powertool this light and compact does not lack functionality:
With optional accessories like the ¼ inch Hex Eccentric attachment, that can be mounted in eight positions, precision drilling even in tight corners is made very easy.
Furthermore, a ¼ inch right-angle attachment is available, also connectable to the tools body in eight different positions, to work in tight angle environments. A simple push of bits or drills into the tool is enough to mount them into place. The need to fix the inserts by pulling the quick chuck sleeve is obsolete. And with the keyless drill chuck attachment, straight shank drill bit from 1.5 – 13mm in diameter can also be mounted.
Preset Modes for drilling, driving and tapping - The preset modes of the EY1DD2 allow for a easy and quick
Now in stock at Powell Electronics, the supplier of connectors and more for high-rel applications including defence, aerospace and industrial, are 2nd generation one-piece GDBC direct board contacts from Gigalane. The simple one-piece design of the components enables a high integration and miniaturization of board-to-board and board-to-module RF interconnections. GDBC series contacts are very easy to use in the assembly as they require no SMT. They offer the lowest total- cost-of-ownership on the market and are an ideal solution for multiple connections and complex stack ups in 5G systems.
Technical details of 2nd generation GDBC contacts include a frequency from DC up to 8.5 GHz, impedance of 50 Ω, insulation resistance of 5000 MΩ and a dielectric withstand voltage of 750 Vrms. VSWR is 1.12:1 at 3.0 GHz, 1.22:1 at 6.0 GHz and 1.35:1 at 8.5 GHz.

adaptation of the power and speed output: “You can choose with just a push of the mode button, how much torque is available for wood or fine metal drilling”, says Kunihiko Nedachi, Head of Power Tools Europe. “Depending on the setting, up to 45Nm of torque are available, and thanks to the new brushless motor and vector control circuit, power and speed are optimized for demanding applications like e.g., heavy-duty serial drilling”.
Also the newly developed electronic clutch enables the drill & driver to provide ideal shut-off clutch torque for precise high-torque fastening. A green LED light indicates when the pre-set shut-off clutch torque has been reached, indicating the desired tightness of the bolt.
Alongside the optional accessories, every cordless drill & driver EY1DD2 comes with a storage space for two 65mm bits in its base, furthermore a belthook and the soft grip texture improve the handling of this versatile power tool.
