At the Applied Power Electronics Conference and Exposition (APEC) 2025, Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. will be showcasing its broad portfolio of passive and semiconductor solutions that address the latest trends in power electronics — from energy harvesting, electric vehicle (EV) powertrains and battery technologies to high efficiency power conversion for data centers.
Taking center stage in booth 905 will be Vishay’s newly released 1,200 V MaxSiC series silicon carbide (SiC) metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs), which deliver on-resistances of 45 mΩ, 80 mΩ, and 250 mΩ in standard packages for industrial applications, with custom products also possible. In addition, Vishay will provide a portfolio roadmap for 650 V to 1,700 V SiC MOSFETs with on-resistances ranging from 10 mΩ to 560 Ω. Vishay’s SiC platform is based on a proprietary MOSFET technology — enabled through the company’s acquisition of MaxPower Semiconductor, Inc. — which will address market demands in traction inverter, photovoltaic energy storage, on-board charger and charging station applications.
In booth 419, Vishay will be highlighting high energy PTC and NTC inrush current limiting solutions from
the company’s most recent acquisition: Ametherm. They include a PTC matrix capable of withstanding 1,500 V DC and 1,125 J. Vishay Ametherm products are well-suited to growing industries and applications, such as robotic automation, industrial power supplies and motor drives, power distribution for server and AI cloud computing, LED lighting systems, medical devices, imaging equipment, EV charging and alternative energy infrastructure.
- An intelligent battery shunt built on WSBE Power Metal Strip resistors, with low TCR and a CAN FD/USB interface for 400 V/800 V systems
- A 48 V eFuse featuring TrenchFET MOSFETs designed to handle a continuous current up to 100 A and operate continuously at maximum current with less than 14 W of losses
- A 1 kW, 48 V/ 2 V buck-boost converter featuring two module power stages — each rated for 500 W — in a compact form factor
Highlighted Vishay semiconductor solutions will consist of the SiC967 microBRICK synchronous buck regulator with integrated power MOSFETs and inductor and a wide input voltage range of 4.5 V to 60 V; scalable microBUCK voltage regulators that deliver high efficiency; 400 V, 600 V and 1,200 V standard rectifiers in SlimDPAK 2L and SMPD 2L packages with high creepage distance; 650 V and 1,200 V SiC Schottky diodes up to 12 A in eSMP series and power packages for AC/DC power factor correction (PFC) and ultra-high frequency output rectification; transient voltage suppressors (TVS); and analog switches in all major configuration types.
APEC 2025 will be taking place March 16 to March 20 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia. As the premier event in applied power electronics, APEC focuses on the practical and applied aspects of the power electronics business.
