Reference Solution Workshops

Our Mission Future aims at sharing knowledge and searching for new solutions together. To keep this knowledge transfer as transparent and low-threshold as possible, we provide you with live sessions and videos on our Reference Solutions Workshops

Our power electronics-oriented Reference Solutions Workshops aim to disseminate know-how in different fields of industrial applications to strengthen the competitiveness of European SMEs in the use of advanced power semiconductors.

Furthermore, we focus on promoting the technology-driven implementation of the "Green Deal" goals. The focus of our workshops is on advances beyond the state of the art when it comes to IoT solutions for power management applications in industry and automotive.

 

In order to share know-how in the field of state of the art power devices and their technical features, we provide material for learning and training in this field to give insight into crucial features and critical aspects of modern power devices. This should enable participants to gain applicable know-how in power electronics.

Aspects to reduce cooling effort, weight and size (miniaturization) as well as the continuously increasing requirements on reliability and lifetime continue to be a major challenge in power electronics application development. Many users are not aware of the huge effort necessary to cope with these increased requirements. The target of this section is to create awareness for such highly competitive know-how and provide knowledge in this field.
