ECPE Workshop: Innovations in Passive Components for Power Electronics Applications

Power electronics is the key technology for effective power processing and distribution. In the past the main focus in the research areas in power electronics has been on active devices, both on power semiconductors and on the integration of control, protection and driving circuits with the main switches. Due to the already achieved progress in this field a further miniaturisation and increase in power conversion efficiency is more and more expected from the passive components and subassemblies.

The main goal of this workshop is to bring together experts from industry and university to present and discuss the current trends and the new developments related to the field of passive components. Improvements in the design of inductive and capacitive components can be expected from new materials and technologies, from innovative cooling concepts, but also from better understanding and improved analysis of the underlying loss mechanisms. Another challenging research area is the possibility of passive integration, e.g. by utilising parasitic components as part of the needed functionality or by integration of the components in substrate materials. The final part of this workshop deals with subassemblies like filters.

The workshop is chaired by Prof. Ger Hurley (National University of Ireland), Dr. Stefan Weber (EPCOS) and Thomas Harder (ECPE).

All presentations and discussions will be in English.

There will be a table top exhibition in the frame of the workshop.
