    • Major home appliances

      Refrigerator

      In our portfolio you will find a wide range of solutions for inverterized refrigerator compressors – whether your priority is achieving the highest level of integration using our IPMs or showcasing ultimate flexibility using our discrete IGBTs.

    • Major home appliances

      Room air conditioners

      Equipped with IGBT power semiconductors in discrete or module packages, driver ICs, highly integrated IPM solutions and XMC™ microcontroller from Infineon, the air conditioning system you design will live longer and consume less energy.

    • Major home appliances

      Cooker hood fan

      Intelligent power modules like CIPOS™ Nano and discrete IGBTs allow you to achieve top energy efficiency and smaller form factors, as well a system that runs quieter than the competition.

    • Major home appliances

      Washing machine

      Washing machines require components that improve reliability and energy efficiency. iMOTION™, our top-quality digital motion controller, allows you to include all the advantages of inverterization, such as energy efficiency and longer lifetimes.

      • Small home appliances

        Vacuum cleaner

        To help you overcome vacuum cleaning system challenges, Infineon offers a comprehensive portfolio of discrete IGBTs, such as the RC-Drives and RC-Drives Fast, discrete MOSFETs and IPMs.

      • Small home appliances

        Microwave

        Inverterization in microwave ovens helps to reduce the stress produced by continuously switching the magnetron on and off, and thus guaranteeing a long lifetime. IGBTs and the elements required to drive these switches lead to increased power control.

      • Small home appliances

        Induction cooker

        Quicker, more consistent heating and energy-efficiency have made induction cooking a growing consumer trend. Optimized for inductive heating applications, the TRENCHSTOP™ F Series Protected IGBT is the choice for an integrated protecting driver.

      • Small home appliances

        Induction rice cooker

        Induction rice cookers need to meet customers’ expectations like faster cooking times, better cooking capabilities and safety features. Choosing Infineon allows you to differentiate from the competition and design precisely to consumer needs.

      • Small home appliances

        Mixer, blender and food processor

        Faster or more powerful motors, more speeds to choose from and additional smart functions are beneficial for the product differentiation thus meeting consumers’ appetites for a new device by equipping it with unique capabilities.
